Abstract

"Painting in poetry" is an artistic feature of Wang Wei's landscape poetry. Meng Haoran had a close friendship with Wang Wei, who was proficient in both poet-ry and painting. Although Meng Haoran was not good at painting, his landscape poems were unconsciously or consciously imbued with a strong sense of paint-ing under the influence of the aesthetic fashion of the times. This paper aims to explore the relationship between the landscape aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty and Meng Haoran's landscape poems with the feature of "painting in poetry", analyze the formation background and connections of the landscape aesthetics in the Tang Dynasty, expound the painting characteristics of "painting in poet-ry", and analyze how Meng Haoran integrated landscape aesthetics into his po-etry creation through specific poems, thus forming a unique style of landscape poems with "painting in poetry".
