Wang Qi (1918-2016)

Reflections of the Morning Glow in the Shipyard

1976

Woodblock print

55 x 41 cm

​

Wang Qi was condemned during the Cultural Revolution (1966-76) and forbidden to work. In the 1970s, he and many other veteran artists were rehabilitated and re-installed in positions of authority in art academies and associations. This is a fine example of the heroic style of Wang Qi’s work in those years, with finely detailed motifs, powerful composition and dramatic perspective.
