EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "From Paintings in Old Imperial Palace, 1644-1912" transports us back to the rich history of China's imperial era. The hand-coloured etching beautifully captures the essence of Chinese artistry and cultural heritage. In this image, we see a man seated on a tortoise-shaped stool adorned with leopard skin fur. Dressed in traditional East Asian attire, he exudes an air of wisdom and authority. With intense focus, he delicately writes calligraphy strokes onto a piece of paper, showcasing his mastery over this ancient art form. The setting is none other than the majestic Old Imperial Palace itself. This grand structure served as the residence for emperors throughout centuries and witnessed countless historical events that shaped China's destiny. The painting depicted here offers us a glimpse into the opulence and refinement that once graced these hallowed halls. It serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of Chinese painters who meticulously captured every intricate detail with their brushes. Preserved by Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA, this remarkable artwork was generously gifted by Mrs. B. Hopkins. As it falls under public domain due to its age, it continues to inspire viewers worldwide without any restrictions or limitations. Through this mesmerizing print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of China's glorious past and its enduring legacy in art and culture.
