Fu Baoshi (1904 – 1965)
Explore Fu Baoshi's captivating landscape paintings & figure art – a pioneer of modern Chinese painting. Inspired by Shi Tao, he blended Japanese techniques with traditional styles.
The soaring peaks and overhanging cliff of this painting convey the scenic drama of Mount Huang (Yellow Mountain) in Anhui Province, where the legendary Yellow Emperor was said to have refined the elixir of immortality. In its conception, Fu’s composition is indebted to the imaginative renderings of the mountain by Shitao (1642–1707), but Fu’s hallmark texture strokes—swiftly brushed marks of different ink densities—create forms that appear both substantial and transparent.
