Lady Leaning on a Tiger
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and enigmatic artwork that showcases the talent of Chinese artists Zhang Shanzi and Zhang Daqian. This early 20th-century piece, created in the summer of 1937, depicts a lone woman confidently leaning against a majestic tiger. The lady's attire reflects traditional Chinese clothing, adding an oriental charm to the composition. Her elegant posture and stylish hairdo exude grace and poise. The artist's skillful use of ink and color on paper brings depth and life to the scene. The juxtaposition of this delicate female figure with the powerful presence of the tiger creates an intriguing contrast. It symbolizes both harmony between humans and nature as well as their inherent duality. This hanging scroll captures a moment frozen in time, evoking feelings of tranquility amidst wild surroundings. The detailed calligraphy adds another layer of artistic expression to this masterpiece. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported into a world where humans coexist peacefully with untamed creatures. It serves as a reminder that even within our own complexities, there is beauty in finding balance with our surroundings. "Lady Leaning on a Tiger" continues to captivate viewers today with its timeless appeal and mastery of technique by these renowned Chinese artists.
