Wen Tong Life story


Wen Tong was a Northern Song painter born in Sichuan famous for his ink bamboo paintings. He was one of the paragons of "scholar's painting", which idealised spontaneity and painting without financial reward. He could hold two brushes in one hand and paint two different distanced bamboos simultaneously.
