Long before Lord of the Rings, people told stories about elves.

But these elves weren't the beautiful forest-dwellers of modern fantasy — they were something far more ancient and strange.

And they could be deadly.

Here's what elves were really like in the medieval mind… 🧵

5. Shen Zhou (1427-1509)

Shen Zhou was one of the later artists in the long and time-honoured tradition of landscape painting at the Chinese courts.

This was about capturing the essence of a landscape rather than its mere outward appearance.

Poetry as painting.
