A testament to the artist's masterful command of brush and ink. 🦁

Xu Beihong (1895-1953) was a titan of 20th century Chinese art. He was a revolutionary artist who brilliantly blended traditional Chinese ink techniques with Western realism, a style he championed during a period of immense cultural change. The 'Sidelong Glance' painting is a quintessential example of this fusion. It showcases a magnificent lion with an intense, piercing stare, its gaze directed not at the viewer, but at a slithering snake below. The sheer power and intensity of the composition are palpable, making this a truly remarkable piece of wall art.

Inscription: In summer 1939, I repainted this because I was dissatisfied, while staying in Singapore, Beihong.

Did you know that Xu Beihong’s animals were often symbolic? The lion, in this context, can be interpreted as a symbol of strength and power, while the snake represents cunning and danger. This captivating narrative adds another layer of intrigue to the artwork, inviting endless contemplation. The original painting, created in 1938, is a testament to the artist's masterful command of brush and ink, capturing the raw energy and movement of the majestic beast with breathtaking precision.
