Classical Chinese Painting & Calligraphy - Shitao's Landscapes

Shitao

Landscapes (ink and colour on paper album of twelve leaves)
ca. 1707

Landscapes (partial)

A work from Shitao's late period produced shortly before his passing, this vibrant album of twelve leaves from the Wu Hufan Collection is of impeccable provenance. Each leaf reveals a unique scene and comes with a dedicated colophon. Shutter employed bold hues and strategic use of link, evoking strength and movement in this piece, one of the final great works of his lifetime.
