Canvas Prints from Heritage Images
Moonlit Landscape (one of a pair), late 1500s. Creator: Unknown
Moonlit Landscape (one of a pair), late 1500s. This unsigned and unsealed composition includes imagery from the Eight Views of the Xiao and Xiang Rivers. Scanning the composition from right to left, four of the Eight Views subjects appear: sunset glow over a fishing village, returning sails off a distant shore, autumn moon over Lake Donting, and evening bell from a mist-shrouded temple. Not all the elements of the traditional Eight Views theme are here, but the artist suggests its literary presence by leading the viewer through a summers journey from one day to the next, aided, like the travelers in the landscape, by the light of the moon

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing "Moonlit Landscape" from the late 1500s, created by an unknown artist. The composition, unsigned and unsealed, incorporates elements from the famous Eight Views of the Xiao and Xiang Rivers. As one scans the image from right to left, four of these picturesque scenes unfold before our eyes. The journey begins with a breathtaking sunset glow over a quaint fishing village, casting warm hues upon its tranquil waters. Further in the distance, returning sails grace the horizon, evoking a sense of longing and adventure. The autumn moon gracefully illuminates Lake Donting, creating an ethereal ambiance that transports us into another realm. Finally, an evening bell resonates through mist-shrouded temples as darkness descends upon this enchanting landscape. Although not all aspects of the traditional Eight Views theme are present here, the artist skillfully guides us through a poetic narrative akin to embarking on a summer's journey. Like travelers in this mystical realm, we find solace and guidance under the gentle light of the moon. This exquisite ink-on-paper painting is part of a six-panel folding screen housed at The Cleveland Museum of Art. Its origins lie within Japan's Muromachi period (1392-1573), showcasing heritage art at its finest. While much remains unknown about its creator or purpose, Heritage Art/Heritage Images has preserved this remarkable piece for generations to appreciate and contemplate its timeless beauty.
