EDITORS COMMENTS
The Student Chang and his lover Ying Ying share a poignant farewell at the Rest Pavilion, captured in this exquisite photo print. The detail of an illustration from Xi Xiang Ji (Romance of the Western Chamber) by Wen Zhengming and Qiu Ying brings to life the emotional depth of their love story. In this scene, we witness Chang bidding adieu to his beloved as he embarks on a journey filled with uncertainty. With a cart waiting nearby, symbolizing departure, Chang's hand reaches out in a tender wave while Ying Ying stands on the bridge, her heart heavy with longing. Their love affair is beautifully portrayed through delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors that adorn the silk canvas. The presence of servants adds an element of realism to this romantic tale set against a backdrop of Chinese culture. Horses graze peacefully in the background, representing both freedom and loyalty. The composition skillfully captures not only human emotions but also nature's harmony. This print transports us back to ancient China, allowing us to immerse ourselves in Wang Shifu's Yuan drama. It serves as a reminder that love transcends time and place, resonating with audiences across generations. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution by renowned artists Wen Zhengming and Qiu Ying, this artwork holds immense historical significance. As it graces private collections today, it continues to inspire awe for its beauty and timeless portrayal of human connection.
