元 吳鎮 高節凌雲圖 軸, Bamboo, old tree, and rock, Yuan dynasty (1271–1368), dated 1338, China, Hanging scroll; ink on silk, Image: 65 5/8 x 38 1/2 in. (166.7 x 97.8 cm), Paintings, Wu Zhen (Chinese, 1280–1354), This painting shows Wu Zhen's creative adaptation of the 'old tree, bamboo, and rock' genre first canonized by eleventh-century scholar-artists. The painting's large scale and use of overlapping forms and graded ink tones to create an illusion of recession, and of rich, wet ink to evoke the appearance of foliage after a drenching rain, recall the descriptive naturalism of Song-dynasty precedents
