DiaporamaThe Peach and Plum Garden
1879
18.0 x 54.0 cm
The painter has captured the pleasures of a gathering of friends in a garden on a spring night. A firefly lamp hangs from a branch to light the scrolls upon the table, and a servant boy brings a covered dish of cakes. At the far left, a member of the group is inspired to lift his cup in toast to the spring air.The figures, in a variety of three-dimensional poses comfortably occupy a complex landscape. Sha Fu uses powdered white pigment to pick out the blossoms and accented brushwork to enliven a traditional theme.
