Nature Based Layout of Chinese Traditional Painting and Classical Garden Making: A Case Study of the Master-of-Nets Garden
Abstract
As a specific discipline of traditional arts in China, the literati painting has a close relationship with the classical garden-design, where we can see idea and technique of paintings in the garden and find gardens drawn in the painting. In fact, the traditional painting has been influencing garden making until now in China, especially painting in the bird's-eye view. Looking into the bird's-eye view of the Master-of-nets Garden, the article interprets 3 aspects of connections in between them. They are the commonality in ideology, the Subjective Initiative during composing and design, and the Layout Management method. Therefore, suggestions for the conservation of classical gardens and the building of modern garden landscape are provided.
