Night-Shining White《照夜白》
Night-Shining White is a portrait, and the name, of a favorite horse of Emperor Xuanzong . The painting is 34 cm wide by 30.8 cm high. It is an example of “baihua”(or “white painting”), a term used in Tang texts to describe monochrome (黑白的) painting with ink shading, as opposed to full colour painting.
Han Gan (韓干, 約706年-783年) , a leading horse painter of the Tang dynasty, was known for capturing not only the physical likeness of a horse but also its spirit.
