Ten Horses Depiction, Snow Scattered Eagle

Title (Dublin Core): Ten Horses Depiction, Snow Scattered Eagle
Description (Dublin Core): Castiglione was commissioned to create portraits of fine horses presented as tribute from vassal states to the west for the Ch’ing court. Painted almost life-size, his use of Chinese techniques also incorporates Western methods of chiaroscuro and perspective, making the life-like colors and forms convincing. The portrait of the Ch’ih-hua-ying horse is one of set of 10 from 1743.
