A Fragrance for All Seasons


Yun Shouping (1633-1690), style name Nantian, was one of the great masters of the 17th Century and is renowned for his achievements in poetry, calligraphy and painting in the history of Chinese art. Yun’s greatest contribution to Chinese Painting was the development of a new school of mogu (boneless) – a form of painting using pigments directly to paint flowers and plants, an approach that tried to express art without rigidly defined outlines and forms. This motif experienced a resurgence through Yun Shouping’s works and school of art.

As a poet and a calligrapher, Yun Shouping liked to inscribe his paintings. The poem on this painting was also found in the Peony album leaf, in the Abe Fusajiro Collection, Osaka City Museum of Fine Arts. His self-composed poems mostly use flowers to personify people and make good use of literary allusions, comparing flowers to fairies or goddesses, which reflects the artist’s aesthetic ideals and extraordinary artistic accomplishment.

Peonies and Rock was not dated. According to the seal jiyueyun stamped on the upper right corner, the painting would have been created after the 1680s, when the artist was at least 50 years old. The same seal was found in The Fragrance of a Nation in Clearing Spring, from the Wong Nan-ping Family Collection, which was sold in Christie’s 2021 Autumn Sale at a record-breaking price.
