  • Lin Tinggui (Traditional Chinese:林庭珪; Hanyu Pinyin:Lín Tíngguì (?); Wade-Giles: Lin T'ing-kuei) (active circa 1174 - 1189 AD) (Japanese: Rin Teikei) was a Chinese painter of the Southern Song Dynasty (1127 - 1279 AD). His artwork was greatly influenced by themes of Chinese Buddhism. Lin Tinggui is best known for taking part alongside Zhou Jichang (Japanese: Shuu Kijou) in the completion of the Five Hundred Luohan (Chinese: Wubai Luohan), a set of 100 paintings commissioned as a gift to a Buddhist temple in 1175 by a Chinese Buddhist abbot. This artistic project in honor of the luohan was completed three years later in 1178. In Chinese Buddhist folklore, it was said that five hundred luohan (Buddhist saints) inhabited a peak beyond the stone bridge of Mount Tiantai located at Jiuhuashan, modern-day Qingyang County, Anhui province, China. This belief was either formed from an older Daoist belief that the site was home to immortals, or from knowledge of Buddhist legend from India, specifically the belief of five hundred arhats living on Mt. Buddhavanagiri near Rajagrha. It was this belief that provided the central theme of Lin Tinggui and Zhou Jichang's artwork.
