Lotus pond clear dew 2019

"Lotus pond clear dew" is a 2019 ink and wash painting by Chinese artist Dayou Lu, currently housed at the Shanghai Museum. Lu, known for his exquisite brushwork, captures the delicate beauty of lotus blossoms in full bloom, their pink petals contrasting with the vibrant green of the leaves. A lone bird, rendered with minimalist strokes, adds a sense of tranquility to the scene. The painting showcases Lu's mastery of traditional Chinese ink painting techniques, resulting in a visually stunning and contemplative piece.
