[Zhuda Lotus Stone Waterbird Painting Axis]
The Lotus Stone Waterbird Painting Axis, Qing Dynasty, Zhuda painting, paper version, ink brush, 127 cm vertically and 46 cm horizontally
The picture shows a waterfowl perching on a solitary stone under the lotus leaf, forming the focus of the whole picture. The waterfowl is unique in shape, independent on one foot, and looks bleak. It seems to be resting, more like watching the cold world with cold eyes. The author’s lonely and desolate situation, strong anti-Qing and Fuming thoughts, and helpless mood in the face of the increasingly stable rule of the Qing Dynasty are more or less reflected in the works
The signature is “written by Badashan people”, with two white seals: “can get immortals” and “Badashan people”. The collection is printed with “Xuzhai Treasures” and other three parties
