Executed in the traditional Chinese ink-on-paper technique, this artwork is a testament to Xiao Ling’s profound understanding of the physical form and spiritual vitality of his subjects. The fluid brushstrokes and varying ink tones breathe life into the composition, showcasing an unparalleled mastery of contrast and movement. Xiao Ling's artistic education at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, under the mentorship of Xu Beihong, played a pivotal role in shaping his style.

The meticulous detail and expressive freedom evident in this piece reflect this fusion, bridging classical elegance with innovative dynamism. Signed in the lower right corner, the painting is elegantly framed, enhancing its presentation while preserving its delicate materials. A rare example of mid-century Chinese artistry, this piece honors the legacy of one of Xu Beihong’s most celebrated protégés.
