Spring Clouds Amidst Autumn Landscape, presented at the sale of Fine Chinese Paintings on 4 October, 2016, is a birthday gift from Zhang Daqian to his confidant, Li Qiujun. Zhang and Li’s brother were best friends, and later developed a very close rapport with the rest of his siblings.

During Zhang’s travel to Sichuan’s Mount Qincheng, he painted eight landscapes using the mountainscape as his subject matter. In celebrating Li’s birthday, Zhang travelled to her hometown in Shanghai and gifted her with this Gongbi brushwork landscape painting.
