Tang Yin, better known in the West by his courtesy name Bohu, was born in 1470 and died in 1524. He was a gifted Chinese painter, calligrapher, and poet during the heyday of the Ming dynasty. Despite his birth in this dynasty, his paintings, especially those with human figures, were often heavily influenced by elements from the art of the previous Tang and Song dynasties. Tang Yin is considered one of the greatest figures in the history of Chinese art. He is one of the "Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty," an illustrious group of artists that includes Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming, and Qiu Ying. Tang's influence on the art scene of his time was remarkable and also influenced other artists such as Cai Han. In addition, he was a talented poet and was one of the "Four Literary Masters of the Wuzhong Region" along with Wen Zhengming, Zhu Yunming and Xu Zhenqing.
Tang Yin was a child of the merchant class from Suzhou and grew up in humble circumstances. He was the son of a restaurant owner and spent his youth in intense study with seemingly little interest in material advantages. His extraordinary talent, which later made him known as an outstanding artist of the Jiangnan region, gave him access to the wealthy and talented circles of Suzhou. Wen Zhengming became his friend and his father, Wen Lin, acted as a kind of patron and made the right connections for him.
Tang Yin was an outstanding student and later became a protégé of Wen Lin. He counted Shen Zhou, Wu Kuan and Zhu Yunming among his friends in the scholarly circles of Suzhou. In 1498, he placed first in the provincial examinations in Nanjing, but his career was interrupted by a bribery scandal during the national examinations in the capital. Tang Yin returned to Suzhou in disgrace and his hopes for a prestigious career in public service were dashed. Denied an official career, he lived a free and indulgent life, financed by the sale of his paintings. Although this lifestyle brought him into disrepute with later artist critics, who saw financial independence as crucial to artistic freedom, his works show an impressive diversity and expressiveness.
Tang Yin's work was so impressive that it is now often reproduced as art prints to allow art lovers around the world to appreciate and study his artwork. These art prints are not only a testament to his outstanding skills as a painter and calligrapher, but also a tribute to his profound poetry and influence on Chinese art history.
