Fan Kuan

Artist best known as the painter of Travelers Amid Streams and Mountains, the greatest single example of the monumental-landscape style of painting and a benchmark painting for all Chinese artists. The painting, nearly seven feet tall, is based on the Taoist principle of becoming one with nature. Fan's style -- reducing human figures to minute proportions and dramatizing the remarkable power of nature -- has led critics to evaluate his creative powers with those of nature itself
