Close up view of the tiger artwork mounted to this silk brocade wall scroll
This wall scroll is discounted because of a couple of very minor spots in the painting. They're kind of ghost marks that you may not have noticed if I did not tell you about it.
This is a unique form of calligraphy. It's a Chinese character that is made to look like an actual figure. In this case, a roaring tiger.
The large character is pronounced "hu" in Chinese. It's also the symbol for tiger in Japanese Kanji and old Korean Hanja. Though it might take a bit of imagination to actually "read" this tiger-shaped character.
Here's Sandy holding a tiger special Asian calligraphy wall scroll. As you can see, it's a nice large-sized wall scroll that will look great in your home.
This was painted by a very shy artist named Ye Ying-Xing from near Guilin, China. I asked if I could take his picture, but he politely refused with a gesture of modesty. He does not seek fame, and in another gesture of Chinese modesty, he insulted his own artwork, saying that it was not good enough to make such a fuss over.
I think the artwork is worthy, and offers a unique and different style that most people in the west have never seen before (it's even rare in China).
