Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers an intriguing exploration of the life and work of the renowned Qing dynasty artist Ou Li (1637-1701). A Jesuit missionary, his life was immersed in both Chinese and Western cultures, and this book delves into the unique fusion of Eastern and Western influences that characterized his art. The author meticulously analyzes Ou Li's paintings and poetry, providing insights into the artist's creative process, his connection to the legendary "Four Wangs" of the early Qing period, and the broader context of Chinese art history. This examination extends to Ou Li's close relationship with the Jesuit missionary Pierre-Martial Cibot, shedding light on the role of the Catholic Church in the development of Chinese art during this era. Richly illustrated, the book presents Ou Li's masterpieces, allowing readers to appreciate his exceptional talent in depicting landscapes, capturing the essence of daily life, and expressing the Daoist principles that deeply influenced his work. Through its detailed exploration of Ou Li's life, artistic achievements, and philosophical underpinnings, this book offers a valuable contribution to the study of Chinese art history and the cultural exchange between China and the West.
