CHINESE PAINTING DEPICTING A LOTUS , ZHANG DA QIAN (1899-1983) Dimensions: 100 cm x 50 cm A vertical hanging scroll depicting lotus flowers and broad, curling leaves in expressive ink and restrained pale colour. Dense black washes build the overlapping foliage, while long, slender stems rise through the composition to support open blossoms and tightly furled buds. The painter balances the dark weight of the leaves against generous areas of untouched paper, creating a vigorous yet airy rhythm. An inscription and red seals occupy the lower left of the image. The lotus has an enduring place in Chinese painting as a symbol of purity, its blossoms emerging above the water without losing their freshness. This work gives equal attention to the plant's strong stems and weathered leaves, treating the subject as an opportunity for energetic brushwork rather than botanical precision.
