    In conclusion, the grave goods and the tomb of Qin Shi Huangdi represented the power and strength that he held during his reign. How he built the tomb portrayed his accomplishment that he achieved throughout his life, and he took these with him to his tomb. The Terra-Cotta Warriors symbolized the power that Qin Shi Huangdi maintained throughout his empire by their physical appearance. The pits that held the Terra-Cotta Warriors displayed the power that Qin Shi Huangdi held though his empire. Bronze being used in his tomb furthermore strengthened the image of power that he held throughout his rule. How gold is used throughout daily life in China helped advance the portrayal of power in Qin Shi Huangdi’s tomb. The First Emperor’s tomb set a precedent…

    Li Bai has had a long reputation of his calligraphy aesthetics. It was traditionally based upon the “word on the street,” since majority of Li Bai’s life is based upon gossip, “Li Ba is one of the Chinese poets about whose life we know most; but must rather mean about whom there is the most gossip,” but after countless of searches through books and extensive Internet search, a breach has appeared and behold, the only unique surviving calligraphy by Li Bai. It is not widely known, until now and housed in the Palace Museum in Beijing. It has been acknowledged by scholars and demonstrates as an authentic and the only surviving artwork with Li Bai’s handwritten calligraphy and poetry. It is called Shangyangtai, translated to “Going Up To Sun…

    In the extraordinary and fictional novel, As Above, So Below, Rudy Rucker exquisitely used the very little-known historical facts and paintings left behind by the renown painter, Peter Bruegel, to create a lasting depiction of this Flemish painter and his works of art. Peter Bruegel was a Flemish painter who existed during the 16th century of Europe, near the end of the Renaissance era. Bruegel was a successful painter in the subjects regarding his surrounding landscapes and peasant life styles, and had two sons. Despite the fact that these were the few and only known informations about Bruegel’s life, Rucker’s creativity as an author allowed him…

    Where sunlight is dusted of the countryside that, like chalked satin, is about to form wings, Fan Kuan drew that place. He drew a place that even the tallest souls, dwarfed by the mountains, were unable to reach, their temples still throbbing with the dismasked energy of a cloudy sky. In the foreground there are a total of four donkeys and one human traveler, possibly the artist himself, moving through mountainous terrain in China’s Shanxi Region. They resemble the shadows of a similar procession moving somewhere out of sight, the shadows of their souls traveling beside them unseen yet wholly more solid than the material world. The perspective of this painting puts the viewer in the eye of a deity, something bigger than the sum of its parts gazed down at its own beauty, the living earth looking into perfect enlightenment. The lack of pigment making up the mists at the base of the background and the streams in the middle ground imply that nothingness and oneness are at the heart of this sublime natural scene. The black ink used in this painting, the lack of ink used to create certain elements in this painting, and the perspective of this painting, which puts the viewer in a god-like position, reflect the beauty of nature and the values of the glorious marriage between Nature and Buddhism called the Tao.…

    Travelers among Mountains and Streams is comprised of several design elements. Form, leading lines, and shape. These design elements move the eye throughout the painting in a continuous interaction between the elements. Each section is well balanced and rich in content. The large mountain in the foreground sets the foundation for the painting by serving as a barrier, keeping the viewers eyes from leaving the page. The area showing the travelers moving in the stream sets a sense of motion, engaging the eye to travel through the painting. The grand scale of all the elements inspire the viewer to be transported into the realm of fantasy promoted by Northern Song painters. The painting takes on a naturalistic feel that is derived from the combination of paint, ink, and silk. The people and mules moving through the stream bring a sense of scale to the painting. They are an important element in that they are in direct comparison to the large Mountain. The helps promote the idea that there is something bigger than all of of us and that humans are somehow spiritually connected to the earth. An important idea that Northern Song Artist aspired to communicate through ere work. The painting is done in a realistic approach yet is not set in a specific place further enhancing the dream like quality meant to promote spiritual communication and enlightenment. This interpretation is about the balance between the countryside and mans attempt to conquer it brought to life in the form of a painting by Fan Kuan. In the painting the small humans are engulfed by the enormous mountains giving the effect of unattainability, yet the human spirit to conquering the elements arises out of the need explore. The human and animals traveling through the stream give the…

    Gim Hwangi was influenced by constructionism and geometric abstraction and soon became one of twentieth century Korea’s influential painters. In his pieces, he typically adopted the date of a work’s creation as its title -- 5-IV-71. His paintings illustrate the paradox that the modern artist faces while finding a distinctive, personal style. This image is considered both Buddhist or Taoist. The two circular radiating patterns incorporate both native and naturalized elements from diverse Korean and Chinese traditions.…

    This one seems to fit in with the other art creations at the Jen library though, because around it the other works of art are almost the same in size, this helps give you an idea at how very large this other piece is. Unlike the first piece, this one has a wood base that is left unpainted or stained. Then close to the bottom left corner it has wood planks with white plaster on them all laid pointing outwards from a circle in the center, it reminds one very much of a giant daisy without a yellow center, unlike the top one you get a happy feeling because of this bright beautiful flower. The planks however are torn at the end, and this beautiful daisy starts to look more battered and worn down, it’s kind of sad. Placed above the hole where the yellow pollen of a flower should lay is three rows of five blocks. All of the blocks are made of foam and painted a bright pink, and they are all lined up in straight rows and are uniform, except for one at the bottom left, that one is slightly tilted. In the end I loved how this looked, and when going deeper into the meaning you can really see why this connects so well with the other darker art…

    To conclude, I think the type of art that the artists from that period used to create are just mesmerizing. The silk banner summaries their early worldview in such a colorful painting. It reflects the early Han dynasty beliefs and the mythocentric age. I can’t even imagine how difficult it would be to paint on a silk because it is a fabric. It’s not like paper that will stay straight and will not move while…
