Rendered on fine silk, realistic style lotus makes a striking wall scroll. A red-crowned crane at rest is what you will remember after one glance. It earns its place among gongbi flower painting with a red-crowned crane turning its head.
You can feel careful realistic rendering in every stroke. Among the finer touches are delicate lotus flowers and sprays of lotus leaves. Do not miss a koi fish in gentle motion, or hazy water tucked nearby. Do not overlook soft green tones. The lotus flowers are a symbol of purity rising from still water. The mounting follows the classic format, with rollers top and bottom. It has the settled look of a piece made to be kept. A fine example of how little a wall needs to say a lot.
Those who follow traditional chinese wall art will recognize the quality of this realistic style lotus scroll at once. It rounds out a grouping of silk scroll wall hanging nicely, with lotus flowers in bloom as a highlight. It is equally suited to gifting and to keeping. A lovely choice for a first piece of Chinese art.
