Landscape


Li Liufang, late Ming Folding fan, ink on paper, 54cm by 21cm, dated 1602, bearing artist's seal as well as those of two collectors. The subject seems to be the confluence of two streams with landscape in triangular formation from the mid-point close to the lower edge of the fan and fanning upwards to terminate at about the upper arc of the fan. All this done in the artist's typical calligraphic brushwork.
