Hua Yan 華喦_1954.263_web

Hua Yan 華喦is a hanging scroll from the Qing dynasty (1644-1911) that shows a peaceful natural landscape that it ment to humble its viewer. Its calligraphic ink strokes create the dramatic atmosphere of the vast nature scene around two individuals involved in a discussion in a far-off thatched cottage. The painting currently is not on view but normally it can be found in the Chinese Art department and is part of the John L. Severance Fund(1954.263).
