Esta observación de Su Dongpo, sintetiza a modo de consigna uno de los fundamentos del arte chino tradicional, esto es que: "Los principios estéticos y los procedimientos de la poesía son de orden pictórico; los principios estéticos y los procedimientos de la pintura son de orden poético" (Idem).

When I first opened Su Dongpo and flicked through the pages, it took my breath away – the illustrations are truly exquisite, all touched with her now signature gilding, both literally and metaphorically.
From that time his life was to progress as a rollercoaster of immense success and popularity, and (unjust) exile, until his final ‘triumphal return’, just before his death, when ‘thousands of people crowded the riverbanks and highways just to see him pass’.
With its powerful pictorial representation and simple prose contrasting with the rich language of Su Dupong’s poetry, albeit in translation, it can be dipped into by teachers and parents to read aloud extracts and offer pause for thought.

Above a quickly rendered image of a lonely figure in a landscape, five poems in Chinese inscribed by five Zen monks celebrate the Zen ideals reflected in the life and poetry of one of China's most famous scholar-officials, Su Dongpo (Su Shi, 1036–1101).
Returning home after a visit, Su was caught in a sudden downpour and forced to borrow a peasant's straw raincoat and clogs.
Unlike descriptions of this episode by Chinese literati, concerned with Su's heroism and incorruptible spirit, these poems reflect the Zen idea of the essential oneness of all things, good and bad: whether in office or in lonely exile, Su was calm and self-possessed.
