Song-jiang-pai

Japanese: 松江派 - しょうこうは（英語表記）Song-jiang-pai

A branch of the Chinese Wu school. Because Dong Qichang was from Songjiang, Jiangsu Province (formerly Huating, now Shanghai), his school is called the Songjiang school, or the Huating school after its ancient name. Due to Dong Qichang's social status and fame in the art world at the end of the Ming Dynasty, this school replaced the Su Song school as the mainstream of literati painting, but like many other schools of painting from the late Ming Dynasty, its style as a school does not have any particularly distinctive features.

中国，呉派の一支派。董其昌 (とうきしょう) が江蘇省松江 (古名は華亭，現在の上海) の出身であったため，その画派を松江派，あるいは古名を取って華亭派という。明末における董其昌の社会的地位，画壇での名声から，この派は蘇松派に代って文人画壇の主流となったが，多くの明末の画派と同じく画派としての画風にはそれほど顕著な特色はない。
