Further details
Bai Xueshi (1915–2011), sobriquet Hexu Zhai, was a native of Beijing. He began studying painting at a young age, first under Zhao Mengzhu and later Liang Shunian. Bai taught at Beijing Normal College and Beijing Academy of Arts, later serving as a professor at the Central Academy of Arts and Crafts. Bai Xueshi specialized in Northern-school landscape painting, drawing inspiration from diverse sources. His blue-green landscape paintings, particularly those depicting Guilin, are the most representative of his artistic style. This collection, formerly from Bai Xueshi’s family, includes several works gifted to the artist by his contemporaries. A particular highlight is Qi Baishi’s Five-Character Calligraphic Couplet in Seal Script (Lot 663), which bears Bai Xueshi’s collector’s seal, underscoring its significance.
