P62    Hermit Fisherman in Streams and Mountains

T'ang Yin's painting style is extensive, encompassing that of the contemporaneous Wu school literati painters as well as that in the manner of Li T'ang of the Sung dynasty Imperial Painting Academy. This work is an example of the latter. A firm sense of presence is imparted to the rocks depicted with abundant axe-cut texture strokes used by Li T'ang, and the more refined colors render an elegant atmosphere different from that of Li T'ang's works. This is a superb work ranked with "Soughing Pines on a Mountain Path."
