Mei QING (1623-1697) - China, 17th c. - Lonely Boat in Autumn, Album leave, ink and light colors on paper. Seven word poem by the artist with signature: “Qing”. One seal of the artist: “Laoqu” - Old and important European private collection, assembled before 1930 and between 1950 and 1980Mei Qing, style names Qushan and Laoqu, was from Xuancheng in Anhui province. He was the youngest and most talented of the so called ‘Masters from Anhui’. After failing in the jinshi-examination, he became a poet and later began to paint. He was a friend of the famous monk painter Shitao (1630 - ca. 1710) with whom he travelled in the Huangshan Mountains. The painting shows a lonely fisherman, perhaps a scholar, sitting in a boat in the reeds of a lake. The poem speaks of an autumn wind blowing all night and the cold of the autumn lake, even some snowflakes and geese flying south.
