Qi Baishi (1864 – 1957)
Prosperity and Longevity Ink and colour on paper
framed 68 x 32.5 cm
|
In his later career, Qi Baishi’s oeuvre took on a markedly relaxed and carefree spirit. Even when his health waned, Qi continued to paint – in particular peonies, which became one of his favourite subject matters at that stage. Created the same year he passed away, Prosperity and Longevity evokes the light-heartedness typical of works produced during Qi’s later days, with its bold, quick brushstrokes.
