O obrazu
River Landscape, a handscroll of about 1300 at the Minneapolis Institute of Art in Minneapolis, opens onto banks beside a river. At the right, pines shade a country house where an elderly man welcomes a visitor. Elsewhere a traveller on a donkey follows winding paths and open bridges, with a servant behind. Hills across the water curve towards the left. The scene belongs to the theme of visiting recluses, associated with withdrawing from society. Its treatment marks a shift from Northern Song monumentality towards the more lyrical landscapes of Southern Song and Yuan painting.
Slovy muzea
This handscroll opens to present a panorama of riverbanks with a pine-shaded country villa on the right. An elderly gentleman is receiving a visitor. A traveler rides on donkey back along twisted footpaths and open bridges, his servant following him. Across the river, the rolling hills present a vista that curves to the left, as if drifting between sky and water.
The handscroll demonstrates a transition of Chinese landscape painting from the Northern Song (960–1127) style of grandeur and monumentality to a more lyrical, impressionistic depiction of nature that typified Southern Song and Yuan painting. The picture evokes a popular theme in Chinese landscape painting known as “visiting recluses, ” which relates to the idea of being a hermit—retreating from society into a life of seclusion.
