Clearing Skies After Swift Snow - Main Painting
Huang Gongwang, one of the 'Four Masters of the Yuan Dynasty,' captures a serene winter moment in this scroll. The title 'Quick Snow After Clearing' fits perfectly: pale, misty mountains rise up while a lonely pavilion nestles among bare, shivering trees. That striking red orb in the sky signals the sun breaking through the clouds after a storm, warming the chilly ink-wash scene. The edges are crowded with red collector seals, proving this piece was passed down and cherished by emperors and scholars for centuries.
