The concept of space contained in Chinese landscape painting is not only the direct embodiment of the space-time view upheld by Chinese traditional painting

but also the intuitive embodiment of the view on nature by Chinese philosophy in art. Landscape painting combines the nature as the creator with the creative mind

constructs a virtual environment through ink and wash

and makes the space rhythmic and musical. In order to achieve this

landscape painting uses the panoramic method

the “three-far” method and the poetization of space. However

since modern times

the value of traditional landscape painting has been challenged

and the techniques of manifesting space by traditional landscape painting have not been properly understood. Fu Baoshi inherited and innovated the tradition of landscape painting

but he took realism as the foundation of landscape painting

and used the modern perspective and proportion to explain traditional techniques

which also had many problems.
