Two distinct strains of landscape painting developed in Japan by the 14th Century. One followed the example of the mostly monochromatic landscapes of China’s Song Dynasty (960-1279), which saw the massive proliferation of the shan shui (“mountain and water”) genre. Adhering closely to the Chinese traditions, these images nonetheless feature numerous formal innovations, including dramatically pruned pine trees and thick, swirling mists. The other landscape tradition in Japan focused on brilliantly colored scenes quite different from contemporary Chinese works, more ornamental than topographical, and often using thick layers of paint or gold leaf. Japanese painters working in both landscape traditions were inspired by the distinctive seasons of their homeland, and often the passing of spring to summer or autumn to winter was depicted within a single image or across a series of pieces, from diptychs to triptychs and beyond. Landscape paintings in China often were meant to invite the viewer to mentally travel through the scene, while the Japanese in both landscape schools primarily focused on verisimilitude and exacting form rather than storytelling. By the time of the later Edo and Meiji periods, the first school had become much less common while the latter flourished, and with the widespread popularity of ukiyo-e woodblock prints more emphasis was placed on color and poetry, further distancing them from their early Chinese inspirations.
