Story

A pair of mandarin ducks glides across still water, surrounded by pink lotus flowers and broad green leaves rendered in fine detail. The scene is part of an album, painted in ink and color on silk. The artist, Shen Nanpin, was a Chinese painter of the Qing dynasty, born in 1682 and died in 1760. The piece belongs to the collection of the Phoenix Art Museum.
