2 seals of the artist, 戴, 牧
This circular Chinese painting titled "Spring Flowers" was created by Dai Mu in the Gengzi year. The artwork features light red spring flowers scattered throughout the canvas, creating a vivid contrast with the dark green leaves. The composition is simple yet vibrant, with the light red blossoms acting like messengers of spring, delicately interspersed among the green leaves, displaying the lively scenes of spring. The inscription "人间四月天" (A Human World in April) in the painting provokes deep reflection. This phrase not only describes the natural beauty depicted in the painting but also conveys the joy and hope that spring brings to people. Dai Mu captures the delicate texture of the flowers and the vivid shapes of the leaves with his fine brushwork, demonstrating his exquisite skill in depicting natural details. Furthermore, the technique of leaving white space in the painting gives the entire work a fresh and refined appearance, providing viewers with ample space for imagination. Overall, Dai Mu's "Spring Flowers" is not only a tribute to the natural beauty of spring but also a conveyance of mood and emotion, allowing one to feel the warmth of spring and the hope of life.
