Further details

This collection of paintings and calligraphy belongs to the descendants of Qi Rushan (1877–1962), the renowned Chinese playwright and scholar known for modernizing traditional Peking opera and serving as a key promoter of the legendary opera actor Mei Lanfang. Qi Rushan was an active figure in the arts circle and a close friend of the artist Qi Baishi, who frequently visited Qi Rushan’s courtyard house in Beijing.
Growing up in a cultured and educated household, Qi’s descendants also developed a deep appreciation for the arts. His daughter studied painting under Xu Beihong, while his granddaughter, He Baoshan, studied music and learned to paint under Feng Kanghou and Gu Qingyao. She later became a published author. Some of the works in this collection, including two by Qi Baishi, were acquired directly from the artist:
“After I got married, my late mother asked Qi Baishi to give me and my husband, Yao Kang, two paintings—one of shrimps and the other of chicks. That was when I began my own painting collection.”
— He Baoshan, Chronicles of Siqi Ge
