The paintings in this exhibition can be easily divided by subject matter. The majority belong to the category of flower and bird painting, a genre that masks a rich diversity of subjects, perhaps better summarized by the term fragments of nature. These fragments come into focus above all in the garden, whether in the city or beyond it, in the wilds or in the imperial summer palaces.
