NOTE:
Collected Works of Famous Modern Chinese Artists – Chen Shaomei, compiled by the artist’s family, dates the present lot to 1952. The work reflects the development of the construction industry in the emerging modern society. Differing from Chen’s traditional style in Chinese ink and brush, the composition and technique of the present lot are closely associated with sketching, representing the artist’s exploration of a new artistic style.
