Approaching Yanbian
Song Dynasty Landscape Painting
1961
42.0 x 59.0 cm
This painting captures an unforgettable scene from Fu’s journey. On the way to the Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture, looking out from the train window, Fu saw that the sky and surface of the water appeared bright red, almost the color of blood. Dawn had come, and he would soon be in Yanbian. He immediately made a sketch. Fu was dissatisfied with this work because of its rich red tint, but this experiment prepared him for the “red line” advocated by the Communist party in the years to come.
