:''For the impact crater on Mercury, see Chao Meng-Fu (crater).''

''A Man and His Horse in the Wind'', by Zhao Mengfu.

'Zhao Mengfu' (, 12541322) courtesy name 'Ziang' (子昂), pseudonyms 'Songxue' (松雪, "Pine Snow"), 'Oubo' (鸥波, "Gull Waves"), and 'Shuijing Gongdao Ren' (水精宫道人, "Master of the Crystal Palace"), was a prince and descendant of the Song Dynasty, and a Chinese scholar, painter and calligrapher during the Yuan Dynasty.
He was married to Guan Daosheng, who was also an accomplished poet, painter and calligrapher. His rejection of the refined, gentle brushwork of his era in favour of the cruder style of the eighth century is considered to have brought about a revolution that created the modern Chinese landscape painting. He was known for his paintings of horses.
