Shi Tao was an outstanding painter and painting aesthetician in the early Qing Dynasty. His monograph "Shi Tao's Painting Quotations" contains 18 chapters, which elaborates in detail the laws of the use of brush and ink, the expression methods of mountains, rivers and trees, as well as the relationship between landscape painting creation and nature, and many other unique views, including the aesthetic thought of "one painting theory", which has laid a deep aesthetic ideological foundation for the development of Chinese landscape painting. This article interprets the aesthetic thoughts contained in "Shi Tao Painting Quotations", in order to provide some enlightenment for the aesthetic development of Chinese painting.
