About the piece
Created in 1656 by Xiang Shengmo, this exquisite leaf from a flower album showcases the artist's mastery of the 'boneless' technique, where color is applied directly without harsh outlines. The vibrant orange of the day-lily provides a striking contrast against the soft green foliage and the textured, ink-washed rock, embodying the contemplative elegance of early Qing dynasty scholar-painting.
