Landscape in the style of Huang Gongwang 1581

Mo Shilong’s *Landscape in the style of Huang Gongwang* (1581) is a masterful example of the *shanshui* genre, depicting a serene mountain landscape rendered in delicate ink washes and fine brushstrokes. The artist, known for his skillful emulation of earlier masters, pays homage to the Yuan Dynasty painter Huang Gongwang by adopting his signature style, characterized by a misty atmosphere and a sense of quiet contemplation. The painting, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, reveals Shilong’s deep understanding of traditional Chinese landscape painting while showcasing his own artistic finesse.
