{"product_id":"yun-shouping-herbaceous-peony-chinese-painting-art-print","title":"Yun Shouping — Herbaceous Peony | Chinese Painting Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo stems of herbaceous peony cross the pale silk, one at the upper left and one rising from the lower right. Five blooms open among the long green leaves: white, pink-flushed white, soft pink, lilac-grey and a deeper pink that droops at the left. Two inscriptions in fine columns with small red seals sit at the upper right, and further seals mark both lower corners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYun Shouping inscribed the scroll in the autumn of 1685, writing that an old painting by an anonymous Northern Song artist showed five varieties of flowers in the boneless manner, its colours still like new after several hundred years. The Cleveland Museum of Art reads the work as coded Ming loyalism: the peony, king of flowers, becomes a motif for the glorious past, and its pale, slightly withered blooms may carry that message.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: hanging scroll, ink and color on silk, Qing dynasty, 1685; The Cleveland Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYun Shouping (1633–1690) was a painter, calligrapher and poet of the early Qing dynasty from Changzhou in Jiangsu, counted among the Six Masters of the period. As a youth he was caught up in the resistance to the Manchu conquest and was captured by Qing forces. Trained first in landscape, he turned to flowers, reviving the boneless manner of painting in colour without outlines, and his flowers sometimes carry coded loyalty to the fallen Ming. His work is held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Cleveland Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is made to our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/archival-museum-standards\"\u003eArchival Museum Standards\u003c\/a\u003e: a 12-ink giclée, printed to order.
