River landscapes
Jiangnan, or the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, is known for its scenery and prosperity, and has inspired the creation of poetry and paintings. This cultural accumulation is seen in the work of Fang Jun, a late ink artist from the region. Mountains in the Hometown, a long-term exhibition at Jiangsu Art Museum in Nanjing, shows a vivid output of Fang in which he accentuated a poetic sense to present varying views of Jiangnan and nature, partially idealized. Fang not only depicted the landscapes of Jiangsu province, his real hometown, in his paintings, but also places farther, not only physically but also imagined lands.
