description Giorgio Sinedino’s article proposes a recontextualization of Gu Kaizhi 顧愷之 (344?–406?) as a “poet-painter” embedded in the sociocultural milieu of the literati elite of the Jin dynasty. The contribution is pioneering in assembling and translating into Portuguese a structured set of materials on the painter: (1) the complete biography from the *Jin shu* 晉書 (*Book of Jin*), (2) an ancient catalogue of works, and (3) essays and critical judgments attributed to Gu, as well as statements by Xie He 謝赫 and Yao Zui 姚最 that fueled a prolonged historiographical debate. Methodologically, the author conducts a comparative selection of sources from different chronologies and genres (dynastic chronicle, catalogues of “famous paintings,” and anecdotal anthologies), emphasizing that Gu’s representation varies according to the moral, literary, and institutional framework of each work. As its main conclusion, Sinedino argues that painting in the Chinese tradition does not function as an autonomous art but rather as an ancillary practice to literary ideology and the value system of the “Literary Garden,” which is why Gu emerges less as a “professional painter” and more as a versatile literatus, legitimized by his social insertion and cultural utility.
