This delicate ink and wash painting by renowned Chinese artist Chang Dai-chien depicts a small bird perched on a bare branch. The bird, rendered in muted colors against a pale background, symbolizes tranquility and solitude. The sparse branches and lush bamboo leaves evoke a sense of natural harmony, a recurring theme in traditional Chinese art. The composition, with its focus on simplified forms and delicate lines, exemplifies the artist’s mastery of this ancient technique.
