Herdboy and Buffalo
1890
19.0 x 54.0 cm
Throughout his career Ren explored the expressive qualities of various brush manners. In the 1880s he was particularly interested in the effects of colored wash and loose, impressionistic brushwork, and created pictures such as this softly brushed fan. The Chan (Zen) theme of herding one"s nature toward enlightenment, as a herdboy guides his wayward buffalo, derives from Song-dynasty illustrations.
