Gao Qifeng - White horse - 1889/1933


This work is one of the best examples of Gao Qifeng who was noted for painting animals. A scene of a white horse turning its head under an autumn tree with falling leaves and a colour-washed background, creates a romantic, poetic and dream-like visual impact. The tail, mane and eyes of the horse are exquisitely executed, capturing not only a transient moment of nature but also the spirit of the animal. The artist has successfully combined the poetry of Chinese painting, Japanese plein-air painting and Western techniques to develop a style that is uniquely his own - Google Arts and Culture
