Nantou Countryside

Yang Hsing-Sheng (1938-2013)

Oil Painting

1987

Length:35.5 x Width:47.5 (cm)

In this painting, a boundless pastoral landscape is presented. Blocks of color divide this scene into sections. Shades of yellow and green were applied to the foreground, with orange and purple for the mountains, to add depth and the feeling of distance. This artist skillfully employed color to construct this space, consisting of carefully formed blocks of different hues. Each brushstroke may seem casual, but together the strokes create neatly arranged plots of land, which are coordinated to bring out great beauty. This is a happy and relaxing vista.
