Fan Kuan was one of the greatest
landscape painters of the Song Dynasty.
Fan painted with the idea of being in harmony with nature. He believed that if you wanted to understand nature, you had to touch it, smell it, and listen to it. That was what he always did. He lived in mountains and forests, and watched the seasons change. However, many people thought he was strange.
One morning, after sleeping under a rock, Fan walked down a foggy mountain path. He saw an old farmer a few steps ahead in the fog.
“Stop right there, whoever you are!” the farmer warned suddenly. He never expected to come across a stranger here.
Fan stayed calm and said, “Don’t be scared, my friend! I’m just trying to find my way to the town.”
“What are you doing here in the mountains?” the farmer asked.
“Looking, and thinking,” answered Fan.
The farmer relaxed when he was certain this strange man was not a danger. He invited Fan to his home and gave him something to eat. Fan, in return, painted a picture for the farmer. Everything in the picture, the farmer, the trees, and the mountains, was so
vivid that the farmer was shocked. He wondered how Fan had done it. Fan told him that it was a gift from the mountains.
As Fan was leaving, the farmer asked where he lived. Fan answered that mountains or forests, east or west, could all be his home.
