Print of Picture of Chibi by Qiu Ying

Product Description

Qiu Ying (1494? – 1552) was a Chinese painter who specialized in the gongbi brush technique.

Qiu Ying was born to a peasant family in Jiangsu Province and studied painting under Zhou Chen in Suzhou. Though Suzhou's Wu School encouraged painting in ink washes, Qiu Ying also painted in the green-and-blue style. He painted with the support of wealthy patrons, creating images of flowers, gardens, religious subjects, and landscapes in the fashions of the Ming dynasty. He incorporated different techniques into his paintings, and acquired a few wealthy patrons. His talent and versatility allowed him to become regarded as one of the Four Masters of the Ming dynasty.
