AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Jinshan Peasant Painting – "Grinding" by Zhang Meiling (张美玲

Magnificent and authentic Jinshan peasant painting (Jinshan Peasant Painting, 金山农民画), a very popular folk naive art style originating from Jinshan District, Shanghai.

Titled Grinding (Grinding / 粉を練る), this original gouache work is a creation by renowned artist Zhang Meiling (张美玲).

The artist's signature as well as her traditional red seal (chop) are clearly visible and authenticated in the lower right corner of the canvas.

The work depicts with vibrant joy and a rich level of detail a traditional scene of rural Chinese life: the collaborative effort around the stone mill to prepare flour and knead dough. True to the codes of this folk art, the composition abandons classical perspective to offer a flat, dynamic, and colorful vision, heightened by a striking contrast on a dark background.
