gold and blue painting. 1 A decorative style of Chinese landscape painting that originated in the Tang dynasty (7-8c). Usually, gold paint kindei 金泥 was employed for the outlines and texture strokes of the trees and rocks, producing a colorful and decorative effect. See * kinpeki sansui 金碧山水. 2 Also called *dami-e 濃絵, a decorative style of Japanese painting using gold foil *haku 箔, bright mineral pigments, and raised surfaces *moriage 盛上げ. Although color paintings with a gold background seem to have been produced as early as 10c in *yamato-e やまと絵, the style is usually associated with paintings after the 16c. It is found on sliding doors, walls and screens, where strong colors were applied on a background of gold foil. |
