L: 39 3/8 in(100cm) W: 15 3/4 in(40cm) Yun Shouping, also known as Nantian (1633-1690), was a Chinese calligrapher and painter. He was a major artist of the early Chinese Qing dynasty. He was regarded as one of the “Six Masters“ of the Qing period, together with the Four Wangs and Wu Li. Yun's style was vibrant and expressive; he attempted to display the inner vitality and spirit of his subjects in painting. Yun sought inspiration from the past. His flower and fruit imitated the style of the masters of the Yuan dynasty. He was unafraid of using strong colors, such as reds and purples, which had traditionally been shunned by Chinese painters as they were seen as gaudy and offensive. He revived the genre of flower paintings in China and became popular throughout the country. Yun's style would be imitated, and he became the founder of the Ch'ang-chou school of painting. Yun was also recognized as a prominent calligrapher, in which he followed the style of Chu Suiliang.
