Rendered on fine silk, ink and color figure style feeding geese makes a striking wall scroll. The first thing that catches the eye is a woman in flowing robes. A woman in quiet repose places it firmly among the finer chinese figure painting scroll.
The painter adds hazy feeding geese and distant geese for good measure. Two details: the red skirt, and softly rendered headscarf. Calligraphy and seals lend the work an air of quiet authority. Light falls softly across the silk, flattering the brushwork. The brushwork holds up beautifully at close range. It is easy to picture this above a mantel or a reading chair.
Anyone hunting for chinese scroll painting will find this ink and color figure style feeding geese scroll worth a close look. For a growing collection of chinese art wall decor, softly rendered feeding geese is a fine addition. For a friend moving abroad, it travels as a piece of home. It adds culture to a rental without a single nail hole drama.
