Sun Wei (painter)


Sun Wei was a Chinese painter during the late Tang dynasty. He was originally from Kuaiji Commandery. During the upheavals of the 880s, he went from the capital Chang'an to Chengdu, probably with or following Emperor Xizong of Tang.
His only surviving painting "Gao Yi Tu" depicts the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove. It is currently preserved in Shanghai Museum, but only four sages can be seen in the extant picture.
