Thanks to the generosity of our Blue Demon Challenege donors, our department has acquired a replica of a renowned Chinese landscape painting scroll. This will allow our students to examine Guo Xi’s Early Spring (1072) in detail and explore the use of multiple perspectives and brushwork techniques in medieval Chinese landscape painting. We are grateful for the positive impact that donations have on our department and are excited to incorporate this resource into our classrooms.
