China: Jiangnan Summer View. Handscroll painting by Dong Yuan (c. 932-962), 10th century. Dong Yuan (c. 932-962) was a Chinese painter from Zhongling (present-day Jinxian County) who was active in the Southern Tang Kingdom during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. Known for both his figure and landscape paintings, Dong Yuans elegant style of brushwork would become the standard in Chinese painting for the next nine centuries. He and his pupil Juran were the founders of the Jiangnan Landscape style of painting and, alongside Jing Hao and Guan Tong, were considered the four seminal painters of that time.
