EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Album of Miscellaneous Subjects, Leaf 3,1600s" transports viewers to a serene and poetic world. Created by the talented Chinese artist Fan Qi in the late 17th century, this leaf is filled with enchanting imagery that reflects the beauty of nature. The leaf brings to life Wang Wei's famous poetic line: "Sit and watch the clouds rising". It captures a moment of tranquility as we see a solitary recluse perched on a flat bluff, gazing out into the distance. The colophon written by Xu Fang further enhances this scene, describing green reeds swaying gently under an unfallen sun. The lake is divided into two halves by vibrant tree foliage and mountain colors. Through delicate brushwork and exquisite use of ink and color on silk, Fan Qi masterfully portrays white clouds gracefully ascending from mountaintops. This evokes a sense of wonderment and awe at nature's ever-changing beauty. As we admire this artwork from China's Qing Dynasty period (1644-1911), it reminds us to pause amidst our busy lives and appreciate the simple pleasures around us. It invites us to sit quietly like the recluse in contemplation while observing nature's wonders unfold before our eyes. Displayed at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this print by Heritage Art/Heritage Images allows art enthusiasts worldwide to experience the timeless charm captured within Fan Qi's masterpiece.
