About this work

A hanging scroll depicts a tiger in a low, prowling stance, its head turned toward the viewer with green eyes and bold dark stripes across the golden-ochre coat. The animal's paws and whiskers are rendered in fine ink lines, and an inscription with a red seal appears at the upper left against a pale silk ground. The work is catalogued as Tiger by Gan Ku in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, as a hanging scroll.
