Size Closed: 2 1/4 x 2 x 24 1/2 in. Size Open: 67 1/2 in. long Qian Songyan was a prominent 20th Century Chinese painter and a leading figure of the “New Nanjing Art Style” who served as the President of the Jiangsu Academy of Chinese Painting. A child prodigy born into a family of scholars in 1899, he blended traditional techniques with scenes of daily village life, eventually becoming a respected professor of painting and language arts. His career was tragically interrupted by the Cultural Revolution, during which he was labeled a capitalist, endured property confiscation, and was forced into grueling manual labor that resulted in chronic illness. Despite these hardships, he secretly continued to paint and experienced a major artistic resurgence in the 1970s, gaining national fame for his large-format landscapes like “Voyage of Thousands Sailing Boats.” Before his death from stomach cancer in 1985, he was recognized as a significant cultural leader and was elected as a representative to the National People’s Congress for many years.
