Wang Hui

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.04 sec.

Wang Hui

(born 1632, Jiangsu province, China—died 1717) Chinese artist who was the paramount member of the group of Chinese painters known as the Four Wangs (including Wang Shimin, Wang Jian, and Wang Yuanqi). Wang Hui, much like the other Wangs, primarily painted landscapes. In his best works he built up an intense web of rhythmic brushwork, while at the same time maintaining a composition's sense of unity and clarity. His fame reached the court in Beijing, and in 1691–98 he was commissioned to supervise the production of a series of hand scrolls commemorating the Kangxi emperor's tour of the South.
