(151.45 ¡Ñ 346.08 ¡Ñ 1.27 cm) (outer frame), Ink and light color on paper, Japan, 19th century, In addition to emulating Chinese ink brushwork, Japanese artists of the Nanga school also adopted Chinese subject matter. For these screens, Kushiro Unzen depicted the confluence of the Hsiao and Hsiang rivers in Hunan province, even though governmental restrictions prevented him from traveling to China. In fact, the subject had been a stock theme for Chinese artists since the tenth century. Traveling monks probably introduced it to Japan during the fifteenth century, and so by Unzen¡¦s time it was a well-established subject.
