Old Pine
Pictures by Hu Zhengyan
A gnarled old pine leans over a dark rock inside a round fan picture by Hu Zhengyan, from the Ten Bamboo Studio book printed in colour in Nanjing in 1633. The pine stays green through every winter, and in Chinese art it stands for a long and steady life. For someone whose years you want to honour.
