The enduring popularity of Zhang Daqian's work is grounded on his technical refinement and aesthetics, and also, the many styles he mastered to leave a diverse oeuvre.
The pocai ("splash color") color-and-ink landscapes, for example, his last gift to the world, show a new summit he reached in a long and productive career, which he explored to overcome the inconvenience brought about by deteriorating eyesight in the later stage of his life.
