This piece brings chinese scroll to the wall in classic scroll format. The whole scroll feels balanced from top to bottom. For collectors of chinese brush painting, the painted scene alone makes this scroll worth a look.
Handled with brush-and-ink work, the scene stays close to nature. Both brush-and-ink work and restrained monochrome ink are on display here, soft at the edges and precise where it counts. Flowing calligraphy adds rhythm to one side of the scroll. Finished with traditional scroll mounting, it hangs ready for display. The scroll format itself is part of the pleasure. The understatement here is deliberate and effective.
Those who follow asian wall art scroll will recognize the quality of this chinese scroll scroll at once. It keeps good company with other traditional chinese wall art; this composition adds quiet interest. Try it in an entryway, where it sets the tone for the home. A quiet corner of the bedroom or study suits it best.
