          A solitary figure, too humbly dressed for the cold buffeting wind, draws a protective sleeve to his face as he quickly makes his way to the comfort of the dwelling nestled among bare trees and snow-laden bamboo—perhaps Dai"s own Bamboo Snow Studio. Dai Jin was one of the last major masters to embody the artistic traditions of the Southern Song Imperial Painting Academy, but he was also a very versatile painter who drew inspiration from diverse sources. In this painting, the manner of outlining forms with a gentle sinuous line, the large and powerful deciduous trees, and the scale of the figure in relationship to the setting recall the works of the Yuan artist Sheng Mou (act. ca. 1310–60).The tendency toward swift, sketchy, cursive brushwork here is a hallmark of Dai Jin"s later work. Dai sometimes painted precariously close to the edge of control, creating a distinctively kinesthetic, movement-filled style that was fresh and new and that would greatly influence later Ming professional painting.

          dai jin, a renowned chinese artist, was born in 1388 and passed away in 1462. he was a leading figure in the early ming revival of the ma-xia style, also known as the zhe school, which emerged from the landscape painting traditions of the southern song. as a young man, dai jin traveled to the capital, nanjing, with his father, who worked in an official capacity. although he failed to establish himself in the capital, he returned to qiantang and resumed his study of painting, likely under the guidance of a local zhejiang artisan.
