Wang Jiqian (C. C. Wang)

Undated, ca. 1949–55 · Ink and color on paper · Asian Art

C.C. Wang spent much of his life engaging with the history of premodern Chinese landscape painting, both as a collector and a painter. This example shows him engaging synthetically with styles of multiple old masters, including Shen Zhou (1407–1529) and Guo Xi (ca. 1000–ca. 1090), as he constructs a misty riverine landscape.
