The son of an eminent connoisseur of Chinese painting, Li Zhaoheng followed the dictates of style and taste enunciated by his father's friend Dong Qichang (15551636), who emphasized the study of masters from the Song and Yuan dynasties (10th-14th century). This gently brushed ink-landscape, with its subtle, textured strokes and stark contrasts of light and dark ink, is imbued with the style of the painter Wu Zhen (1280-1354), one of the Four Great Masters of the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368). Painted after he had taken religious orders in the Chan (Zen) sect of Buddhism, Li Zhaoheng dedicated this work to a fellow monk.
