Landscape painting

Japanese: 景物画 - けいぶつが

A modern concept of Yamato-e. It defines seasonal events, plants and animals, and natural scenery as "scenery," and refers to paintings depicting these. It is mainly used for screen paintings. In traditional terms, this would include four seasons paintings and monthly paintings, but famous places paintings can also be considered scenery paintings, given the motifs they depict. By introducing the concept of scenery paintings, we can look at the genealogy of Yamato-e from ancient times to the early modern period with new eyes. [Chino Kaori]

Japanese:

やまと絵に関する現代の概念。季節と結びついた行事や動植物，自然の風物を〈景物〉と規定し，これらを描いた絵画をいう。おもに障屛画について用いる。古来の用語では四季絵，月次絵（つきなみえ）がこれにあたるが，名所絵も描かれたモティーフの上からは景物画といえる。景物画という概念を導入することによって，古代から近世に至るやまと絵の系譜を新しい目でとらえ直すことができる。【千野香織】
