南宋 傳陳居中 胡騎春獵圖 團扇|Nomads hunting with falcons
Chen Juzhong
early 13th century · Fan mounted as an album leaf; ink and color on silk · Asian Art
Chen Zhuzhong specialized in depicting nomadic horsemen and their lives on the steppes. This exquisite fan painting, in which the hairstyles, costumes, and saddle trappings of the Khitan people are faithfully rendered, may be dated stylistically to Chen's period of activity or somewhat later. The horseman galloping away in pursuit of his quarry recalls a similar figure in Eighteen Songs of a Nomad Flute.
