Hsiao Ju-Sung (1922-1992)

Watercolor

Length:65 x Width:91 (cm)

Antiquated coal-burning lamp, glass bottles, paint brushes and ink are arranged on a table in the artist's studio. From the window can be seen the sky and branch with leaves. The light from the transparent glass, texture and inverted image not only provide the skill of this artist, but also seem to allude to the artist's pursuit of a pure life. Amid the dim blue light, this scene is clean and bright. It has the relaxed nature of a still life, but at the same time provides a peak into this artist's life.
