This painting by Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368) artist Wang Yuan was originally created as a gift for his friend. Depicting a peach tree with newly blooming flowers, several stalks of green bamboo, a pheasant and sparrows, rocks and fine grass on a slope and a flowing stream, the work reveals Wang Yuan's mastery of bird-and-flower painting as well as his refined ink techniques for bamboo and rocks. Collection: Shanxi Museum.
