- Description
“Sansui-ga” is often translated as a landscape painting in English, but I wouldn’t say that the translation is entirely accurate. “San” means mountain, “sui” means water, and “ga” means a painting in English. This is why mountains and bodies of water (a river, a waterfall, lake or so on) are painted in Sansui-ga. Sansui-ga is the most popular motif for paintings. It is thought that Sansui-ga has several lucky elements. For example, a mountain protects homes and water washes misfortune away. Therefore, Sansui-ga is very popular and often put on display. (However, it is not displayed at the time of a ceremonial exchange of betrothal gifts, because it is thought that water can wash even a fortunate chance meeting away.)
Nakazawa Juhō, a Japanese-style painter, is well known for his Sansui-ga. A veteran painter, the assured quality of his works makes his paintings very popular.
