Description
Xie Yuemei (1906-1998), Dragonfly over the Lotus Pond. Length: 79 cm (31.10 in); Width: 45 cm (17.72 in). Color on paper. This refined flower painting by Xie Yuemei depicts the serene charm of lotus pond with boneless brushwork. Scattered lotus leaves unfold freely with layered ink washes of varying shades. Several crimson lotus blossoms emerge from beneath foliage, their petals tinted with delicate pink. Slender reeds sway by the pond, and a scarlet dragonfly hovers lightly above the blooms, bringing vitality to the composition. Inscription on the left reads: "Painted for Madam Rulan, sixth month of Wuzi year, by Xie Yuemei (Juanruo)", accompanied by two seals. The composition is sparse and airy, executed with elegant, fluid brushwork, embodying the tranquil aesthetic of literati flower painting. Originally mounted hanging scroll, the paper bears natural toning and faint foxing from age.
