EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Woman Fantasizing" takes us back to the Qing dynasty, specifically the Kangxi period between 1700 and 1722. Created by Leng Mei, a renowned Chinese artist from that era, this hanging scroll is an exquisite example of ink and color on silk. Measuring at an impressive 115.6x66 cm, this artwork can be found in The Art Institute of Chicago's prestigious collection. Donated by James W. and Marilynn Alsdorf, it showcases the beauty and artistic prowess of East Asian culture. The image depicts a seated woman lost in her own world of imagination and fantasy. Her delicate features reflect the elegance associated with women during the Qing dynasty. As she sits there deep in thought, we can only wonder what dreams or stories are playing out within her mind. The Kangxi period was known for its cultural richness and artistic achievements, making this piece even more significant. It serves as a window into a time long gone but still cherished today. Leng Mei's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; his mastery over ink and color brings life to this mesmerizing scene. Through this artwork, we are transported to another era where women were celebrated for their gracefulness and inner strength. As we gaze upon "Woman Fantasizing" we become part of her world – a world filled with imagination, beauty, and endless possibilities.
