[The Magnificent Spirit of Bih-Hung | A Replica of a Treasure Combining Chinese and Western Cultures]
This central hall captures the essence of Xu Gong's "freehand and heroic spirit," blending the strength of Han Gan's Tang dynasty painting with the precision of Western anatomy. Crafted using the ancient Xuanjing technique of eight alums and nine dyes, the rich ink color resembles thunderous claws, while the distinct textures allude to the "structural creation" of the Lion's Roar. This imitation reaches the "Yixing Master Level" standard, demonstrating a more innovative spirit of modern art than typical animal figures. Beyond a mere resemblance, this is a treasured masterpiece that recreates the symbol of the national spirit, a rare example of a Beihong lion.
