It is an original Mid-Century Chinese floral botanical watercolor on silk paper. It is in pristine condition. It is in rare horizontal format! The image showcases multiple floral blossoms and buds in vibrant color. It also features a butterfly perched on a petal and a bee hovering nearby. Note the wonderful shading detailing on both the petals and leaves. This image appears to be in the style of Chinese Gongbi painting. Gongbi is a meticulous technique of realistic traditional Chinese painting that requires highly skilled artistry.. It uses a "tidy" style brush to outline images. Then the fine lines are filled in with color washes to achieve an elegant, smooth, and vibrant finish. This image is signed and stamped on the left. Zoom in to see the borders of the textured patterning on the silk edges. Image size is 14 x 10 inches. The botanical with bordered edges is 16 x 12 inches. See less
