Wang Hui, Landscape after Li Cheng
Wang Hui's "Landscape after Li Cheng" is a fan leaf painting executed in ink and color on paper that demonstrates the artist's engagement with the monumental landscape tradition established by the Northern Song master Li Cheng. Created during the Qing dynasty when Wang Hui was a leading figure of the Orthodox school of painting, the work exemplifies his characteristic synthesis of earlier styles through careful study of past masters. The intimate scale of the fan format contrasts with the grand spatial ambitions typical of literati landscape painting, showcasing Wang Hui's technical virtuosity in rendering atmospheric perspective and intricate brushwork within a constrained composition.
