The soft, wet washes in this landscape signal the brushwork lineage of Mi Fu, a famous calligrapher, painter, and connoisseur of the Northern Song dynasty (960–1127). Seven hundred years after his death, Mi was celebrated in the city of Zhenjiang by painters like Pan Simu, who wanted to build a regional school of painting based there. This painting’s stated site, Helin, was the temple near which Mi was buried. Pan jokes in his inscription, “If Mi Fu were to return he’d laugh at this and wonder, ‘Who is trying to pilfer the meditations of my practice?’”
