The Foolish Old Man Moves a Mountain by Xu Beihong is a monumental oil painting created about 1940. The work draws its narrative from a fable found in the Book of Lieh-tzu, a text dating back to the fourth century BC. This story was later retold in the first century BC and gained further prominence when it was championed in 1945. The painting captures a moment of intense physical labor…
In the quiet intimacy of a 1936 studio, Xu Beihong captured more than just a likeness; he immortalized a profound connection. The Portrait of Sun Duoci stands as a breathtaking testament to a moment when love and artistic revolution converged. As the viewer encounters this monumental canvas, they are immediately drawn into the serene gaze of Sun Duoci, a woman whose presence radiates a delicate balance of vulnerability and quiet…
Tian Heng och Hans Fem Hundra Efterföljare – En Symfonisk Hyllning till Patriotism och Dignitet Xu Beihong, en pionjär som brottade samman världar, föddes 1895 i den lugna staden Yixing och levde ett liv präglat av konstnärlig utveckling och ett engagemang för att skapa en ny väg för kinesisk målning – en väg som harmoniskt blandade rikedomarna hos hans hemland med innovationerna från västerländsk konst. Från enkla början under faderns…
A single horse occupies the center of this ink and wash painting on paper. The animal is depicted standing on all four legs, its head lifted toward the upper edge of the frame. Its mane and tail appear to move in a steady wind, creating a sense of physical motion within a static pose. The horse is rendered in black and white, utilizing varying tones of ink to define its…
Xu Beihong’s Sketch of a Man from the Front and the Side, created about 1924, functions as a rigorous study of human anatomy and form. The composition centers on two nude male figures positioned against a dark, atmospheric background. One figure faces the viewer directly in a frontal view, while the second figure is presented in profile, facing right. This dual orientation allows for a comprehensive examination of the physical…
HORSE UNDER A WILLOW TREE is a painting by Xu Beihong. The work features a horse positioned beneath a tree, a central motif in the artist's oeuvre. Xu Beihong was born in 1895 in Yixing, People's Republic of China, and continued to influence the direction of Chinese art until his death in 1953.
Xu Beihong's “Portrait of Xu,” painted in 1943, isn’t merely a likeness; it’s a carefully constructed tableau brimming with quiet contemplation and the subtle power of suggestion. This oil painting, rendered on a canvas measuring 62 x 48 cm, offers a glimpse into the mind of a young woman – likely Xu Beihong's wife, Jingwen – captured in a moment of serene introspection. The work immediately draws the eye with…
The painting’s enduring appeal lies in its ability to capture the essence of human connection—a timeless theme explored with remarkable sensitivity and artistic skill by Xu Beihong.
In this intimate scene, Stroking the Cat brings together the artist Xu Beihong and his partner, Jiang Biwei, within a quiet moment of domestic life. The painting captures the pair alongside their cat, a creature they both hold dear. There is a palpable sense of closeness between the two figures as they interact with the animal, creating a scene of shared affection. The composition focuses on this private connection, pulling…
A young woman sits in a room, her gaze drifting toward a distance we cannot see. She wears a floral shirt, the petals of which rest against her skin like small, silent memories. The light catches the dark weight of her hair, framing a face caught in a moment of deep thought. Behind her, the presence of another person lingers in the shadows, a soft silhouette that adds to the…

In February 1950, Xu Beihong published the article “An Informal Discussion on Landscape Painting” in New Construction. In addition to pointing out the history, accomplishments, and other existential issues of Chinese landscape painting, he noted: “Art needs realism. If there is a genius among us, I hope that he will depict the historical circumstances of our heroes (such as combat heroes and model workers). These model figures highlight the great…
