China Large Steep Mountain Peaks Natural Marble Stone "Painting", Signed
Located in South Burlington, VT
Steep Mountain Peaks - Chinese extraordinary natural marble stone painting of a mythical sky and high mountains landscape called a dream stone Shih-hua.
It is a large monumental masterwork of nature. Totally natural.
Dimensions:
Hardwood frame: 38.25 inches tall and 17.5 inches width
Site: 35 inches tall and 14 inches width
This thin marble stone painting is approximately 3/8 inch thick and is cut from a large slab of rough material revealing a unique, incredible pattern in white, cream and dark green colors.
Signed with red seal of poetic artist upper left and includes hanger and hardware on reverse.
This unique work of art was from historic Dali marble found in the Cangshan mountains of western China. These mysterious mountains, unique in the world, are known for yielding incredible and fantastic natural landscaped works of art created over tens of millions of years from mineral inclusions that affected the process of ancient organic material which transformed into limestone and finally resulted in marble- a metamorphic hard stone.
This art form is centuries of years old since the Ming dynasty. Dream stones became favored art in the west particularly since the 19th century when French collectors named them Pierres de reve.
