The ''Eight Views of Xiaoxiang'' () are beautiful scenes of the Xiaoxiang region, in what is now modern Hunan Province, China, as having been written in the poems, depicted in the pictures and known among the people, from the time of the Song Dynasty. The ''Eight Views of Xiaoxiang'' can refer either to various sets of paintings which have been done on this theme, the various verse series on the same theme, or to combinations of both. The Xiaoxiang theme should be viewed as part of a long poetic and artistic legacy. Among the earliest extant artistic depiction of the Xiaoxiang region can be found in the renowned painter Dong Yuan's masterpiece ''Xiao and Xiang Rivers''. The original set of eight painting titles were done by painter, poet, and government official Song Di (ca. 1067 - ca. 1080), during the reign of Shenzong, in the Song Dynasty. A complete version of Song Di's ''Eight Views of Xiaoxiang'' has not survived.〔Murck, 28, 42-46, and 61-69〕 ==The eight scenes== * The rain at night on the Xiaoxiang (), in the south (Xiang River area) * The wild geese coming home (平沙落雁), in Yongzhou * The evening gong at Qingliang Temple (烟寺晚钟), in Hengyang * The temple in the mountain (山市晴岚), in Xiangtan * The snow in the evening (江天暮雪), on the Xiang River in Changsha * The fishing village in the evening glow (渔村夕照), in Taoyuan County * The moon in autumn on Dongting Lake (洞庭秋月) * The sailing ship returning home (远浦归帆), in Xiangyin, in the north (of Hunan) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eight Views of Xiaoxiang」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
