Packet 1: Bonus 18

This style’s strict process of contouring, layering, and shading contrasts with the expressivity valued in the scholarly freehand xiěyì (“sh’yeh-YEE”) style. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this highly prized style of Chinese painting focused on meticulously detailed realist images.
ANSWER: gōngbǐ (“GOHNG-bee”)
[10m] Despite being a type of gōngbǐ, the subcategory of jièhuà (“j’yeh-hwa”), which depicts this subject matter, was looked down on because its artists used tools like rulers. This subject matter is the focus of Italian capriccio paintings.
ANSWER: architecture [or buildings; accept ruins; prompt on cities, cityscapes, views, or landscapes]
[10e] Zhāng Zéduān captured the daily life and architecture of Kaifeng in a jièhuà work set during Qingming (“ching-ming”) that was painted on one of these objects. Horizontal and vertical scenes were respectively emphasized by “hand” and “hanging” examples of these objects.
ANSWER: scrolls [or gǔndòng; accept handscrolls or hanging scroll]
