Important silk painting mounted on a scroll after TANG Yin (1470-1523)China, Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1912)This remarkable silk painting, mounted on a traditional Chinese scroll, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Tang Yin, one of the most celebrated painters of the Ming Dynasty. Though executed in a later period, this work faithfully captures the essence of Tang Yin's style and subject matter, offering a glimpse into the artistic brilliance of this master.Tang Yin, also known as Tang Bohu, was a multi-talented artist, scholar, and calligrapher who lived during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). He is renowned for his landscape paintings, figure paintings, and bird-and-flower paintings, all characterized by their elegant brushwork, refined compositions, and poetic spirit. Tang Yin's works often reflect his deep appreciation for nature, his keen observation of human life, and his mastery of traditional Chinese painting techniques.This silk painting, executed in the style of Tang Yin, likely depicts a landscape scene, a popular subject in his oeuvre. Tang Yin's landscapes often feature towering mountains, cascading waterfalls, winding rivers, and secluded pavilions, creating a sense of tranquility and harmony. His figure paintings often portray elegant scholars, beautiful ladies, or historical figures, capturing their grace and inner spirit.The composition of this scroll painting is carefully balanced, with elements arranged to guide the viewer's eye through the scene. The use of negative space, or empty areas, is also a hallmark of Tang Yin's style, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere.Numerous collector's satmps and artist's signature.Provenance: French private collection - Galerie art asiatique, MarseilleHeight: 30 cm, Length: 305 cm€ 8 000 - € 10 000
