About the piece
This exquisite album leaf by the master Xiang Shengmo captures a cockscomb flower with remarkable delicacy and precision. Created in 1656, the work exemplifies the Ming dynasty literati tradition, balancing careful botanical observation with expressive calligraphic inscriptions and traditional red seals against a serene, neutral paper ground.
