現代　謝稚柳　敦煌寫生雜畫　鏡片|Hands and donor figure

Xie Zhiliu

datable to 1942–43 · Drawing; ink on transparent paper · Asian Art

These studies of hands and a seated figure are so precise that they must have been traced from the original murals on which they are based. The seated female figure (a donor) is copied from an image on the east wall of Cave 329, Dunhuang.
