EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Portrait of Wen Zhengming" from the late Ming-early Qing dynasty. Created in the 17th century by an anonymous Chinese School artist, this artwork is a true testament to the talent and skill of its creator. Measuring at 42.3x44.5 cm, this album leaf features delicate ink and light color on silk, adding a sense of elegance and refinement to the portrait. Wen Zhengming, also known as Wen Bi (1470-1559), was a renowned figure during the Ming dynasty who excelled in various artistic disciplines such as painting, calligraphy, poetry, and scholarship. In this half-length portrait, we see Wen Zhengming wearing an elaborate headdress and traditional robes that signify his status as a scholar and poet. The attention to detail in capturing his facial expression reflects both his wisdom and contemplative nature. The Art Institute of Chicago proudly houses this remarkable piece through the S. M. Nickerson Fund. Its presence within their collection allows art enthusiasts from around the world to appreciate not only Chinese culture but also admire the mastery displayed by artists from centuries past. As you gaze upon this image captured by Bridgeman Images, let yourself be transported back in time to experience firsthand the brilliance of one of China's most celebrated figures - Wen Zhengming.
