Ten Dogs Depiction, Frost Harrier
-
Description
-
This work depicts a frosty-colored hunting dog standing on a slope under white plum blossoms. Being nimble, it was named "Sparrow Hawk," hence the title here. Castiglione combined the tools and materials of Chinese painting with Western perspective and chiaroscuro for naturalism also expressing spirit. The opulent colors and forms thus make for a realistic effect. (20120102)
