Su Shi praised Wang Wei's poetry and painting works: "When you taste the poems of Mojie, there are paintings in the poems; when you look at the paintings of Mojie, there are poems in the paintings." Wang Wei's works depicting landscapes, pastoral and other natural scenery As well as poems about living in seclusion, the paintings draw shadows and shapes, which are wonderful in conveying the spirit through freehand brushwork and combining both form and spirit. With his fresh, distant, natural and refined style, Wang Wei created an artistic conception of "painting in poetry, poetry in painting" and "Zen in poetry", setting up a banner in the poetry world.
Wang Wei's landscape pastoral poems not only depict the natural beauty, but also reveal the leisurely and leisurely taste of leisurely life. Wang Wei became increasingly depressed after middle age and sought sustenance in Buddhism and mountains and rivers. He claimed that "as soon as he realizes silence, he will be happy and have more leisure in this life." This mood is fully reflected in his poetry creation.
