Arhat Painting No.5 (羅漢圖之五)

This painting is one of Zhu Fangxiang's renditions of Shi Tao's "Arhat Paintings." It depicts a scene where arhats interact with monkeys in a forest, conveying a sense of humor and vivid expression. The arhats' expressions are natural, coexisting harmoniously with the animals, reflecting a Zen theme of harmonious living between humans and nature. In the painting, two monkeys hang upside down from a branch, offering a large peach to the arhats. Such a scene not only adds a playful element to the artwork but also emphasizes the theme of harmony between nature and spiritual practice. This painting is suitable for anyone who appreciates and studies classical Chinese painting, whether art lovers or collectors. This set of "Arhat Paintings" by Zhu Fangxiang consists of 8 pieces. Each painting can be collected individually or as a complete set of 8. If collected as a whole, the 8 paintings will be housed in a hard case.
