Scholar's Rock, 19th century, 6 9/16 x 17 1/2 x 8 7/16 in. (16.67 x 44.45 x 21.43 cm) (including stand), Ying stone, China, 19th century, This intricately wrinkled and textured ying stone is a classic example of a 'distant view mountain' rock. Deep crevices traverse the rock's middle giving it the impression of several mountain peaks separated by gorges. The white calcite inclusion approximates the look of a mountain glacier. Miniature mountain landscapes form a sub-category of scholar's rocks. More reflective of the natural environment than the dramatically convoluted and perforated ling-pi and tai-hu scholar's rocks, they were perfect for studios that lacked views of a distant landscape.
