Wu Tao-Tzu

Wikipedia

 
Wu Tao-tzu (680-740) was a China|Chinese artist, famous for the myth of entering an art work.

The myth follows the creation by Wu Tao-tzu of a mural commissioned by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang China. The mural on the wall of the palace was a rich nature scene set in a valley, containing a stunning array of flora and fauna.

Wu Tao-tzu had gone further and painted a door on the side of a mountain. The story goes that he clapped his hands and entered the door, inviting the Emperor to come and see - sadly the door shut and he was lost forever.
