Day-Lily from a Flow Album of Ten Leaves
By: Hsiang Shung-mo
Date: 1656
Medium: Ink and Color on Paper
Dimensions: 12 1/8 X 9 1/16 in.
Place: China
Museum: Minneapolis Institute of Arts
I choose this piece of art work because I enjoy the simplicity of the single flower, the lily is also my favorite flower. The bold choice for the bud of the flower is eye popping. The piece of art has an inscription and it will be interesting to find out more information on it. I am excited to learn more about this piece of art work.
