Signature works

Paintings by landscape master Li Keran (1907-89), created between 1940 and 1980, are now on display at the Beijing Fine Art Academy. Exhibits include 108 Chinese paintings and 13 watercolors, which have all been donated by Li's family.

Doers Win features mainly majestic mountains and torrential rivers. The famous water buffalo series of the artist are also on display.

All the Mountains Blanketed in Red, one of Li's representative Chinese paintings, captures the subtle hues of an unfolding autumn, and impress visitors with their unbridled composition and gorgeous colors. Slivers of water snake their way through the mountain woods, before falling down the slopes and joining the streams below. Houses nestled in a sea of red maples exude utter serenity.
