"This research project examines the impact and influence of Chinese and Japanese ink landscape painting on the genre of Grand Manner Classical and Romantic landscape painting in Europe, from its beginnings as an independent genre in the 17th century. Specifically, the grand theme of woods and rivers will be investigated and its stylistic and philosophical relationship to Chinese and Japanese aesthetics demonstrated. The work examines how Far Eastern landscape painting conventions and techniques can be effectively acquired, and practically applied to painting in the manner of Classical and Romantic landscapes. [...]The aim of the investigation is to contribute to our deeper understanding of the genesis of this important style of artistic representation, and give fuller credit to the initiators of the technique and to those who realised its potential in the field of Western art." / Doctor of Philosophy
