Problem When you’re visiting a new place your time is limited
There is too much to see
You need to make a choice
If a visitor wants to see only landscapes and plants, there should be a way to choose a subset of museum
objects that makes the most of their time
”This painting was said by him to have been inspired by
the work of Li Cheng, a tenth-century landscape artist.
Its spare, rather dry brushwork again repeats the
deliberately simple, austere quality that is the feature
of many so-called literati paintings. Hanging scroll.
Landscape. Bare trees in winter, with reference to Li
Cheng (919-67) and a river. Painted in a very dry style.
Inscriptions and seals. Ink on paper.”
Scraped 100 000 curatorial descriptions of paintings and drawings from British Museum’s database
