Painting by Lee Man Fong - Kampung (Village)

Title : Kampung (Village) Type  : Oil on Wood Dimensions : 100 cm X 200 cm Artist  : Lee Man Fong (China) Lee Man Fong’s paintings of the Indonesian landscape, and local culture and traditions, are highly regarded for their artistic significance in the emergence of the country’s modern art movement. Though he was born in China, and moved as a young child to Singapore, it was the artist’s relocation to Java in the thirties that influenced his visual language, and established his creative legacy. Lee Man Fong’s oeuvre is reflective of his Chinese ancestry, for the works reference the techniques, and cultural aesthetics, that are imbedded in classical Chinese painting. The work Kampung (Village) is demonstrative of the themes and imagery that the artist cultivated during his lifetime, which are now celebrated as the hallmarks of Lee Man Fong’s artistic vision. sources : Wiki , Sothebys
