Part A

This is one of the greatest masterpieces of Chinese landscape painting. When westerners first discovered Chinese paintings like this one, they could not see their value. To understand painting, you need to understand calligraphy. The character is not a picture of an object in the real world, but a symbol for an idea. As Chinese characters are symbols for ideas, so elements in a Chinese landscape, rocks, water, trees and mountains, became symbols of concepts. For the Chinese, pictures painted with a brush are symbols that carry both the surface meaning and additional hidden meanings. Chinese paintings are not just pretty pictures. They mean something.

For thousands of years, human beings have been fascinated by whales. It is uncertain when, how or why the ancestors of the whale gradually moved into a purely aquatic environment. Freed from the gravity of the land, the whales evolved to become the true ocean beings of the planet. For most of our shared history, our relationship with the whales has been a distant one. If a memory remains behind the eyes of these gentle creatures, it is rarely if ever shown. Rather our first furtive attempts to enter the whale’s domain seem greeted with curiosity and a longing for communication and understanding.
