SANCHUUJIN JOUZETSU　山中人饒舌

KEY WORD :　art history / paintings

Lit. Chatter of a Mountain Dweller. A two volume treatise on painting theory by the late Edo artist and Confucian scholar Tanomura Chikuden 田能村竹田 (1777-1835). Completed in 1813 (Bunka 文化 10) and published in 1835 (Tenpou 天保 6), it is perhaps the best known of Chikuden's many writings on painting and includes CHIKUDEN SHIYUUGAROKU 竹田氏友画録 (Record of Paintings by Master Chikuden and Friends). Likely based on critical Chinese painting commentaries such as Huachanshi Suibi (Jp: GAZENSHITSU ZUIHITSU 画禅室随筆) by Dong Qichang (Jp: Tou Kishou 董其昌; 1555-1636), Chikuden's work combines anecdotes about artists and impressions of paintings with critical commentary centering around his list of one-hundred rules for painting. The text is published in Sakazaki Tan 坂崎坦, ed, NIHON GARON TAIKAN 日本画論大観 1, pp. 239-262.
