Spring Breeze 2001

"Spring Breeze" is a 2001 ink and wash painting by renowned Chinese artist Wu Guanzhong (1919-2010). Known for his unique blend of traditional Chinese painting techniques with Western modernism, the piece depicts a serene landscape with delicate brushstrokes capturing the essence of nature. The prominent lotus seed pod and a dragonfly soaring above suggest a gentle spring breeze, while the abstract composition invites viewers to contemplate the harmony between nature and human perception. Wu Guanzhong's works are highly sought-after and are often described as "lyrical" and "poetic."
