Artgeological Painting Show of Mt Dabie by Kang Yu-yi
PREFACE
Invited by Prof Zhang Jie, vice-director of Country Resource and Tourism Department, Nanjing University, I was delighted to visit Mt Dabie for one more time. Because the time for travel was spared from teaching, we had to select main points. We drived from Liuan City directly to Tiantang Village, inspected Tiantang Village - Baimajian region particularly, also inspected around the route through Huoshan County and Jingzhai County out and home. I got more than 1000 pieces of landscape material during a week's field work. After return, I spent more than 4 months conceiving and painting with great concentration, and got 80 pieces of painting. Now I select 50 pieces from those, and share with you, friend all over the world.
From the viewpoint of geological structure, the Tiantang Village - Baimajian region belongs to the Mt Dabie deep huge rupture and upheaval region's core, it's massif mainly consists of late Archeozoic metamorphic complex rock and Mesozoic Yanshan granite of Mt Dabie, their ages differ by 2.3 billion, it may be called young - old in one home. The dominant peak Baimajian's elevation is 1774 m; the second peak Tiantang Village, 1729.13 m. Here is mainly characterized by touring massif, steep hillside, dense forest and complex geological structure, majestic, precipitous, charming and elegant, called as "The first pass of southeast Wu and Chu" from long ago.
Entertained fervidly by the Travel Bureau of Liuan City, which assigned us special car for field use, and also entertained by Jinzhai Travel Bureau, Huoshan County Travel Bureau and Tiantan Town Government, I am so grateful!
