About the piece
Created in 1745 by the renowned artist Hua Yan, this album leaf illustrates a scene of quiet companionship. The minimalist composition, featuring a boy holding a horse by a stream, exemplifies the artist's refined brushwork and mastery of negative space characteristic of the Qing dynasty's Yangzhou school.
