But it almost goes without saying that this approach to painting also had its dangers. 
As time went on, nearly every type of brushstroke with which a stem of bamboo or 
a rugged rock could be painted was laid down and labelled by tradition and so great 
was the general admiration for the works of the past that artists dared less and less 
to rely on their own inspiration. The standards of painting remained very high 
throughout the subsequent centuries both in China and in Japan (which adopted the 
Chinese conceptions) but art became more and more like a graceful and elaborate 
game which has lost much of its interest as so many of its moves are known. It was 
only after a new contact with the achievements of Western art in the eighteenth 
century that Japanese artists dared to apply the Eastern methods to new subjects. 
We shall see how fruitful these new experiments also became for the West when it 
first got to know them.

The Japanese relished 
every unexpected and unconventional aspect of the world. Their master, Hokusai 
(1760-1849), would represent the mountain Fujiyama seen as by chance behind a 
scaffolding (Fig. 330); Utamaro (1753-1806) would not hesitate to show some of 
his figures cut off by the margin of a print or a curtain (Fig. 331). It was this daring 
disregard of an elementary rule of European painting that struck the Impressionists. 
They discovered in this rule a last hide -out of the ancient domination of know-

ledge over vision. Why should a painting always show the whole of a relevant part 
of each figure of a scene ? The painter who was most deeply impressed by these 
possibilities was Edgar Degas (1834-1917). Degas was a little older than Monet and 
Renoir. He belonged to the generation of Manet and, like him, kept somewhat aloof 
from the Impressionist group though he was in sympathy with most of their aims. 
Degas was passionately interested in design and draughtsmanship. In his portraits 
(Fig. 333) he wanted to bring out the impression of space and of solid forms 
seen from the most unexpected angles. That is also why he liked to take his
