29. Penzai
Classical Chinese gardens often contain arrangements of miniature
trees and rockeries known as Penjing. Penjing, also known as
Penzai, is the ancient Chinese art of depicting artistically formed
trees, other plants, and landscapes in miniature. The word consists of
the two characters shown on the left: “pen” – “pot” or “container”,
and “jing” – “scenery”. Penjing is the Chinese art of creating a
miniature landscape in a container. These creations of carefully
truned trees and rocks are small-scale renditions of natural
landscapes. They are often referred to as living sculptures or as
three-dimensional poetry. Their artistic composition captures the
spirit of nature and distinguishes them from ordinary potted plants.

31. Classifications of Penzai
Penzai generally fall into one of three categories:
Shumu penjing : Tree penjing that focuses on the depiction of one or more trees and
optionally other plants in a container, with the composition's dominant elements
shaped by the creator through trimming, pruning, and wiring.
Shanshui penjing : Landscape penjing that depicts a miniature landscape by carefully
selecting and shaping rocks, which are usually placed in a container in contact with
water. Small live plants are placed within the composition to complete the depiction.
Shuihan penjing : A water and land penjing style that effectively combines the first
two, including miniature trees and optionally miniature figures and structures to
portray a landscape in detail.
