Here he paints a powerful nude with background elements reminiscent of the late interiors of his long-time rival Henri Matisse.</p><p class="ql-block">Nude in a rocking chair is an unlikely combination of joyful light and colour and aggressive fragmentation.

The face has been relocated to the belly, with the navel as eye and genitals as jagged mouth - an image of a destructive feminine force in a broader composition of calm and repose.</p> <p class="ql-block">張大千</p><p class="ql-block">中國(guó) 1899-1983</p><p class="ql-block">蓮花 1973</p><p class="ql-block">肉桂蓮花1974年彩色石版畫</p><p class="ql-block">由薩蒂斯·阿諾德先生借出</p><p class="ql-block">張大千被公認(rèn)為中國(guó)現(xiàn)代繪畫史上最多才多藝且作品最豐富的藝術(shù)家之一。他出生于中國(guó)四川省的一個(gè)羅馬天主教家庭，后旅居日本、阿根廷、巴西、美國(guó)和臺(tái)灣。張大千將這些經(jīng)歷融入藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作中，并嘗試了新的技法。在20世紀(jì)60年代和70年代的加利福尼亞州，他從事平版印刷術(shù)的創(chuàng)作。這些蓮花圖案是1973年和1974年在舊金山創(chuàng)作的兩組版畫的一部分。這些平版印刷品被廣泛傳播，將張大千的藝術(shù)介紹給了廣大的國(guó)際觀眾。</p><p class="ql-block">由于其能夠從最渾濁的水中綻放出純凈而明亮的花朵，蓮花象征著純潔、蛻變與新的開始。</p> <p class="ql-block">張大千</p><p class="ql-block">Zhang Daqian China 1899-1983</p><p class="ql-block">Lotus 1973</p><p class="ql-block">Cinnabar lotus 1974 colour lithographs</p><p class="ql-block">On loan from Mr Satis Arnold</p><p class="ql-block">Zhang Daqian is considered one of the most versatile and prolific artists in the modern history of Chinese painting.
