      Wang Wei

      Wang Wei (王維), rođen oko 699. godine u okrugu Qixian u provinciji Shanxi, stoji kao monumentalna figura u povijesti umjetnosti dinastije Tang—svjedočanstvo skladnog spoja glazbe, poezije, slikarstva i političkog vodstva. Poštovan ne samo zbog svog umjetničkog stvaralaštva, već i zbog dubokih filozofskih uvjerenja utkanih u Chan budizam, Wang Wei utjelovljuje duh svog doba: intelektualnu znatiželju upojenu s nepokolebljivom posvećenošću ljepoti prirode.

      Dong Yuan

      Majstor dinastije Južni Tang, njegov život i potezi četkicom pojavili su se tijekom razdoblja dubokog kulturnog cvatja u eri Petih dinastija i deset kraljevstava. Rođen u Zhonglingu, u današnjem okrugu Jinxian, Dong Yuan nije bio samo slikar, već i službenik čije je duboko promišljanje o prirodnom svijetu pomoglo redefinirati samu esenciju Shanshui, ili pejzažnog slikarstva.
