Lot Essay

This painting was given by Zhang Daqian to Ms. Judy Shen during the time when she studied painting with him. Born in Shanghai in 1940, Ms. Shen was one of Zhang’s four students while living in Mogi, Brazil from 1954 to 1971. Ms. Shen especially enjoyed learning and is talented at following her teacher to paint splashed-ink landscapes and lotus flowers.
