‘PINE TREES’, BY LI XIONGCAI (1910-2001), DATED 1989
黎雄才（1910-2001）《松》，1989年
Sold for €3,539
including Buyer's Premium
Ink on paper. The pine trees in the foreground masterfully rendered, sprawling in an almost explosive manner, with distant mountains peacefully resting in the background, both subjects in stark, dramatic contrast, this setting being a hallmark of this artist.
Inscriptions: Upper left, dated to March of the Year of Jisi (corresponding to 1989). Inscribed ‘For Brother Zhicheng’. Signed ‘Xiongcai in Guangzhou’. One seal: ‘Lingnan Li Xiongcai’.
Provenance: From a noted private collection in Paris, France.
Condition: Minor wear, some foxing, creasing, few minor losses, a small tear to one edge.
Dimensions: Size 66 x 42.5 cm
Li Xiongcai (1910-2001) was a painter of the Lingnan School. In the late 19th century, scholars in China broke through entrenched conservative thoughts and began to actively create and promote new schools and styles of art. This not only cultivated ideological progress among social elites but also gave birth to the eclectic fusion of the Han Chinese and Western styles, the ancient and the modern. Today, the Lingnan school is noted along with the Beijing-Tianjin and Shanghai painting schools as one of the three pillars of modern Chinese painting.
Auction result comparison: Compare a related but smaller (44.7 x 36.3 cm) painting by the same artist, also with similar pines but with a bird and waterfall, at Sotheby’s Hong Kong in Fine Chinese Paintings on 2 October 2017, lot 1312, sold for HKD 325,000.
