Inside Painted Glass, "A Family" Snuff Bottle by Zhang Zenlou in 2006

About the Item

Zhang Zenglou (penname Xiaoxuan, ??) was born in Hebei Province in 1956. He is a master of contemporary Chinese inside painting in Ji school. He is currently a researcher at the China Academy of Art, chairman of the Hebei Provincial Institute of Inside Painting, and a visiting professor of Yanshan University and Hebei Normal University. In 1987, Mr Zenglou was engaged in creating inside paintings under the direct teaching of Wang Xisan and later became one of his outstanding disciples. His works are evaluated as a fusion of Chinese and Western painting styles. Zenglou is particularly good at the themes of landscapes, characters, animals, flowers, and birds. In 2006, he painted a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II in a snuff bottle for her 80th birthday. This artwork became one of the top ten gifts in the "world selected". In the same year, three landscape paintings were also selected for the Royal Miniature Exhibition organized by the Royal Society of Miniature Painters. This was a great achievement, and a step forward as the Chinese artists have been missing from this exhibition for a hundred years.
