His style name was T’ien-shu and his sobriquets included Chieh-sou, Hsi-hu wai-shih, and Shih-t’ou-t’o. In his early years, he modelled his style after the Sung and Yüan dynasty masters, particularly Huang Kung-wang (1268-1354). In his middle years, however, his style became more individualistic and he experimented with heavier colors and thicker lines. The influence of Huang Kung-wang is clearly visible in the vigorous brushwork and light colors of this painting. Lan Ying’s blending of natural elements truly approximates the spirit of the Yüan master. The mountainous composition fills the paper. A green stream flows through the lower left portion, while the upper right portion contains ascending layers of mountains executed without texture strokes. Autumn forests and rustic cottages are scattered through the middle ground. This painting is dated “a winter day in 1640.” Therefore, Lan Ying was fifty-five years old when he painted this landscape. &*1.〈明藍瑛畫山水〉,收入國立故宮博物院編,《晚明變形主義畫家作品展》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,1977年九月初版),頁322。
