Wu Hufan (1894-1968), 'Lake, Mountain, Pine and Spring'. Length: 62 cm (24.41 in); Width: 31 cm (12.20 in). Hanging scroll, ink on paper. Wu Hufan, a master of modern Chinese painting and connoisseurship, excelled at landscape painting. Drawing inspiration from Song and Yuan masters, he created refined and elegant brushwork in both ink and coloured works. This *Landscape with Pines and Mountain Stream* was painted in autumn of Jiashen year. Rendered solely in monochrome ink, it depicts a serene lake and mountain scenery. In the foreground, rugged cliffs rise beside ancient gnarled pines, together with trailing vines drawn with fluid lines. In the middle ground, a waterfall tumbles down mountain valleys into a vast lake, its surface washed with pale ink to evoke misty ripples. Distant rolling peaks are sketched with light ink, creating profound spatial depth. The artist's inscription "Jiashen autumn, Wu Hufan" and two red seals are on the right side of the painting. The work employs rich gradations of ink. The texture strokes are gentle yet powerful, with a well-balanced composition, embodying Wu Hufan's signature elegant and ethereal landscape style. Original antique mounting, well preserved.
