总把江山入画图 【颐和园】中国
A Landscape reflected in Images. Summer Palace, China
“借得山川入画图;又成气象万千。颐和园雨后新晴,烟霞雾霭,宛如长卷一般,锦绣河山铺展而开。” 颐和园虽由人作,浑似天开,乾隆也好,慈禧也罢,总把江山入画图。
After rain, the Summer Palace is depicted as it would be in a painted scroll. Although manmade, the gardens appear as if naturally formed, and both Emperor Qianlong and Empress Dowager Cixi, wanted their landscapes, in miniature, to reflect the beauty of the empire.
