Mount Jinggang

Fu Baoshi Chinese
dated 1964
Not on view
Returned to lender
This work of art was on loan to the museum and has since been returned to its lender.
This impressive landscape depicts the revolutionary base at Jinggang Mountain in the Luoxiao Mountains, located between Jiangxi and Hunan provinces. Without Fu’s inscription, it is difficult to relate the serene landscape to the political theme of revolution. The inscription reveals that the artist traveled there in November 1963 and, upon his return, painted this work and inscribed Mao Zedong’s poem about the revolutionary site.
