A wonderful intro to Chinese landscape painting. Of course, there is also the "cultural tie-in" to consider with Gary Snyder's "Mountains and Rivers Without End" at the Smithsonian. Thank you!

The 10th century Dong Yuan’s River bank or this a forgery of Zhang Da Chiang. The dwellers facial expressions and body gesture egoism in the hut under the river bank betray its author as well as the chaotic water flow with no strategy. And sloppy undisciplined unfinished tiles on the hut. Recommend Zhang’s own at the end of the show removed. Recommend the ageing silk certified for dating. Keep the authentic art or destroy it for the high morality of the true smile from master Dong Yuan.
