IO. MOUNTAIN-BLOCKED CLOUDS
Tao-chi's inscription adapts two lines from Tu Fu and adds 2 com-
ment of his own:
It is good not to have any houses here,
Yetto have mountains blocking the clouds.
These words are unusual and this painting is also raw! There is
feeling beyond feeling, and yet no hint of an ordinary painting.
Here we have a case of Tao-chi changing the wording of verses to
enhance their pictorial interest. Tu Fu's original lines read:
It is good not to have any houses here,
So nothing obstructs the cloud-covered mountain.
While in real scenery the absence of any man-made structure indeed
dramatizes the purity of

3. RIVERBANK OF PEACH BLOSSOMS
The lines are from Li Po's "Parrot Island":
The mist parts and the fragrant breeze from
the orchid leaves is warm;
The riverbanks are lined with peach blossoms,
rising like brocaded wave
Although Parrot Island an actual locale in Hupei Province, had long
and complex historical associations, Tao-chi here concentrates on
LiPo's imagery. Laying down shimmering tones of scarlet, blue, and
he conveys both the brilliance and the softness of flower petals on a
misty sunlit day.
Painting in color without ink boundary lines is known as the "bone-
less" method (mo-ku-fa).
