A house painter in Braque’s day learned trompe l’oeil.

Kenneth Rexroth I know only from his tranlations. His Chinese are ‘withered & bland’. This was the ideal. Most translators of Chinese poetry focus on Cha’n scholar-officials, all male. https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/poetrycenter/bundles/191199 https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poets/detail/kenneth-rexroth http://www.bopsecrets.org/rexroth/translations/chinese.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Rexroth
