EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 20th century print, titled 'Ducks and Hollyhocks,' showcases the harmonious coexistence of nature and wildlife against a serene backdrop. The image, believed to have been created between 1912 and 1949, showcases a pair of ducks wading in a tranquil pond, surrounded by the vibrant blooms of hollyhocks. The intricate details of the ducks' feathers and the delicate petals of the hollyhocks are rendered with remarkable precision, using traditional Chinese ink and colors on paper. The origin of this heritage art piece is uncertain, but it bears the hallmarks of Chinese calligraphy and painting, with its elegant brushstrokes and masterful use of color. The colophon, or inscription on the reverse, is written in beautiful, flowing script, adding to the piece's authenticity and historical value. The scene is reminiscent of the thirties and twenties, when an appreciation for the natural world and its beauty was at the forefront of artistic expression. This print would have been a cherished possession in any home during that era, serving as a reminder of the simple pleasures of nature and the importance of preserving it. The Cernuschi Museum in Paris, an esteemed institution dedicated to Asian art, is now the proud owner of this stunning work of art. The museum, located on the waters edge in the heart of the city, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Asia and its influence on the art world. This print, with its timeless beauty and connection to nature, is a fitting addition to the museum's collection.
