EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork "Sheep and Goat" from the Yuan Dynasty, created by Chao Meng-Fu or Zhao Mengfu in 1300. The delicate ink on paper composition measures 26.8x26.5 cm and is housed at the prestigious Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The image reveals a fascinating layering of history as it features seals from various Ming and Qing dynasty collectors, including those of the Qianlong emperor who once owned this scroll. These seals are applied over much of the remaining paper, adding an intriguing element to the artwork's story. Accompanying this remarkable piece is a title frontispiece provided by Emperor Qianlong himself. Borrowing vocabulary from an ancient poem about sheep, he aptly named it "Divine likeness [of sheep] in motion and repose". This poetic touch adds depth to our understanding of both the artwork and its creator's intentions. The black ink strokes beautifully depict two animals - a sheep and a goat - capturing their essence with incredible precision. The calligraphy used throughout further enhances their spirit, creating a harmonious blend between script and animal representation. This photograph not only offers us a glimpse into ancient Chinese art but also invites contemplation on themes such as nature, farming life, symbolism, and cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to Chao Meng-Fu's mastery as an artist while preserving centuries-old traditions for future generations to appreciate.
