Huang Shen (1687-ca. 1768)
Ch’ing Dynasty
Huang Shen came from a poor family with no means of support, so he began to study painting at the age of 18. Living in a desolate temple, he painted by daylight and read at night by the candles in the temple. His art eventually became renowned, and he traveled through southern China, finally settling in Yangchow in 1719. He is known as one of the Eight Eccentrics of Yangchow.
This painting is a portrayal of the immortal Li T’ieh-kuai appreciating a flower. Huang’s figure painting reveals brushwork that resembles cursive script calligraphy. In fact, the style of the painting perfectly matches the calligraphy of the artist’s inscription. This painting was donated to the Museum by Mr. Huang Chun-pi.
