Abstract

Many Chinese painters, from ancient up to modern times, have compared painting with different kinds of human activities, such as calligraphy, dance, music, as well as go, a board game played by two competitors. They articulate their theories of painting through these analogies, and reciprocally, these analogies have enlightened them on many important issues in painting.
