A Chinese painter at the Painting Academy in the late Northern Song and early Southern Song dynasties. Dates of birth and death unknown. Born in Bianjing (Kaifeng). He became a Painting Academy official during the Xuanhe era (1119-25) at the end of the Northern Song dynasty, and was reinstated to the post during the Shaoxing era (1131-62) of the Southern Song dynasty, serving three emperors: Huizong, Gaozong, and Xiaozong. He was skilled in Taoist and human portraits, and was particularly adept at painting infants and beautiful women.
