DiaporamaBirds Amidst Blossoming Plum and Bamboo
104.0 x 47.0 cm
lin liang (? – 1500)
Lin Liang (c. 1424-1500) was a Ming Dynasty Chinese imperial painter renowned for vibrant plum, flower & fruit works. A pioneer of Cantonese painting with an unconstrained style, influencing Japanese Kano school artists.
Identified by the white patch on their heads as "whitehaired oldsters" (baitou weng), the birds in this painting are auspicious symbols of longevity. Combined with the plum and bamboo—symbols of moral virtue and renewal—the painting would have made a fitting gift for a birthday or anniversary celebration.
