Further details
NOTE:
Shen Shuo, a Ming dynasty painter, was born in Changzhou (Suzhou) and later immigrated to Nanjing. He intently studied painting for three years without leaving his house. He specialized in copying and imitating the landscapes and figure paintings of the Song and Yuan masters Zhao Mengfu and Liu Yong, as well as Ming and Qing masters Qiu Ying and Tang Yin. Using the baimiao style to render feathers and wings was one of his exceptional talents.
