Silk banners and hanging scroll paintings have been discovered dating back to the Han Dynasty (260 BCE-220 CE). By the time of the Tang Dynasty in the 7th Century there was a standardized style and format to them, ranging from panoramic landscapes spanning multiple pieces side-by-side to single scrolls crammed with calligraphy. Zhao Mengfu (1254-1322) was a descendant of the Song Dynasty’s imperial family, and a renowned scholar, painter and calligrapher during the Yuan Dynasty. He was married to Guan Daosheng, who was also an accomplished poet and painter. His rejection of the refined, gentle brushwork of his era in favor of the rougher style of the eighth century is considered to have brought about a revolution that created the modern Chinese landscape painting. He was particularly known for his paintings of horses, which this piece emulates exquisitely.
