EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Two ducks among reeds at the waters edge" transports us back to the ancient Ming or Qing dynasty of 15th-18th century China. The artwork is traditionally attributed to Zhao Ji, a renowned artist of that era. The image showcases two graceful ducks gracefully gliding through a serene river, surrounded by lush reeds and vibrant plants. Their colorful feathers are beautifully captured in ink and color on silk, highlighting their natural elegance. As we delve into this masterpiece, we can appreciate the intricate details that make it truly remarkable. The delicate strokes depict every feather with precision and finesse, while the choice of colors adds depth and vibrancy to the scene. This artwork not only celebrates nature's beauty but also serves as an educational tool for those interested in Chinese art history. It is housed within the prestigious Arthur M Sackler Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution's Freer Gallery of Art – a scientific institution dedicated to preserving cultural heritage. Through this photo print, we are transported to a time long gone but forever preserved in this exquisite piece of art. It reminds us of our connection with nature and invites us to appreciate its wonders just as people did centuries ago during China's illustrious dynasties.
