In the brushstrokes of Ming and Qing (1368-1911) painters, the lotus quietly blossoms. Either in freehand ink or in meticulous-style paintings, each artist captured their own visions of lotus flowers. At the lotus-themed exhibition in the Nanjing Museum, step into a world of ink and color where lotus ponds unfold before your eyes. Let the summer heat fade as the cool elegance of these timeless blooms surrounds you.
