Wu Guanzhong (1919-2010), Group of Small Oil Paintings Depicting Autumn Scenery of Jiangnan in the 20th Century. Length: 30 cm (11.81 in); Width: 42 cm (16.54 in). This set consists of small oil paintings on paper, with an original solid wood relief storage box. The box is engraved with "Wu Guanzhong, Central Academy of Arts and Crafts", decorated with scroll patterns at four corners. The wood texture is simple and the patina is natural. Centered on the autumn scenery of Jiangnan countryside, the paintings depict ancient water-town walls, tree-lined paths, riverside white cottages and villages amid distant mountains. Impasto painting technique is adopted with unrestrained and dynamic brushstrokes. Golden autumn leaves set off against white walls and black tiles, and simple figures are dotted in the pictures to create a lively scene. It integrates the color expression of western oil painting with the artistic conception of oriental freehand painting. Each small painting bears a signature at the lower right corner. The whole set is well preserved, fully showing the tranquil poetic charm of Jiangnan countryside.
