While landscape paintings in the era of Northern Sung were the ones that painted landscape from a broad viewpoint, Kakei's paintings were the ones that painted landscape only at the corner of canvas and leaving the big blank space ("Henkaku no Kei" [drawing method of landscape painting]). 北宋期の風景画が大観的な視点から描いているのに対し、夏珪の画の多くは、画の一角に風景を描き多くを余白にした(「辺角の景」)。 |
