Abstract
Summary: The potential political association of Wang Hui's landscape panoramas with images of the Great Unity (Da yitong) was appealing to the Qing imperial court. Wang Hui's landscape panoramas, made for high officials during the 1680s, led to his appointment as the master painter of the Nanxun tu, a set of twelve scrolls commemorating the emperor Kangxi's Southern Tour of 1689. The imperial commendation, "mountains and rivers, pure and splendid (shanshui qinghui)," in celebration of the completion of the Nanxun tu, epitomizes Wang Hui's artistic ambition and political success.
