<br>
A Chinese ink wash painting depicting two galloping horses in vigorous motion, rendered in the traditional guohua (Chinese painting) style. The horses are shown from a rear three-quarter view with legs extended and manes flowing, conveying powerful energy and momentum. The brushwork is accomplished and confident, with masterful control of ink density moving from near-dry brush textures through to rich, fully loaded black strokes defining musculature and form. The composition is complemented by a calligraphic inscription in running script and two red seal stamps (chops) in the lower left corner, consistent with the format of traditional Chinese brush painting. The paper ground has the off-white tone characteristic of aged xuan (rice) paper.<br>
<br>
Presented in a simple black-painted wooden frame with cream mat under glass. Dimensions are approximate and should be confirmed prior to bidding.<br>
