LOT NOTES
This early work of Zhang Daqian was painted in 1936 at the age of 37. Inspired by the famous Southern Dynasties artist, Zhang Sengyou (張僧繇), Zhang Daqian fully utilized the soft tones of the autumn landscape to express the beautiful mountainous landscape of his home province of Sichuan. With graceful skill, Zhang Daqian beautifully depicts a sprawling landscape of deep and colourful mountains; skiff boats at the base of the waterfall in the soft stream; sheer cliffs dotted with trees; and an autumn sky overlooking the entire landscape.
