[Yun Chen Shen Yun｜Replicas of Qing Dynasty Figures] This work embodies Gu's meticulous craftsmanship, seamlessly blending the subtle influences of Zeng Jing's portraiture with imperial line drawing. Specially selected fine silk from the imperial court, treated with a secret method of nine alums and twelve dyes, results in a vibrant, jewel-like hue. The drapery's folds echo the subtle "iron line drawing" technique of Emperor Kangxi's Southern Tour. This imitation, reaching the standard of "Jinchang Study," demonstrates the pinnacle of early Qing court painting beyond the ordinary figures. Beyond mere resemblance, this work is a treasured treasure that recreates the court aesthetics of the Kangxi and Qianlong eras, a rare example of the Yunchen style of the time. Material: Silk cloth Mounting size: 185×69 cm Painting core size: 81×44 cm
