Bamboo carving with green figure and pavilion drawing pen holder

[Penholder of the bamboo carving with green figures and pavilions]

Penholder of the bamboo carving with green figures and pavilions, clear, 11 cm high, 6.5 cm maximum diameter. The old collection of the Qing Palace
The pen holder is slightly oval, and the table is carved in a corner of the stage and pavilion with the green method. An old man in gorgeous clothes sits on a horse beside the fence, and a waiter with a palm fan stands behind him. Both of them look at the waiter with another sword. Most of the terraces and pavilions are covered by crags, pines and cypresses. In the distance, there are still painted pillars flying in the mountains, and the towers and columns looming
The technique of leaving green in this work is very skillful, and the green cloud is like ink. For example, the clouds are outlined in a shade, and the uneven edges are left along the longitudinal texture of the bamboo skin with green clouds, creating a natural effect of water and ink, which is quite vivid. The moss spots of the rocks, the texture of the tree body, and the faces and clothing of the characters are all like strokes, which fully shows the charm of the green technology
