  • Modern Chinese Paintings: The Reyes Collection in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford by Shelagh Vainker

    Modern Chinese Paintings: The Reyes Collection in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford

    Pu Xinyu, also known as Pu Ru, was a cousin of the last emperor of the Qing dynasty; as such he received a classical education and was able to study at first hand paintings by Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing masters. He remained in Peking until the 1940s, later moving to Taiwan where he became the leading upholder of the classical tradition. The brushwork in this painting is in the meticulous gongbi style.
