About this work

This hanging scroll in ink on paper, titled Mallows and Garden Rock and attributed to Chen Chun, shows large hibiscus-like mallow blossoms and broad palmate leaves rising beside a dark, textured rock. The rock is rendered in layered ink washes with dotted accents, while the flowers are left in pale wash with fine outlines. A column of calligraphy and several red seals appear at the upper right, and the scroll has a patterned silk border.
