The story

The diptych size is Height 27.55 inches x Width 39.35 inches, and the frame size is Height 35.05 inches x Width 46.85 inches.

T’ang Haywen was a Chinese and French artist born in 1927, Xiamen, China. He is noted for his mastering of the ancient techniques of Chinese ink-brush painting. Since his death in 1991, T’ang’s work has been widely exhibited including a travelling retrospective at the Oceanography Museum of Monaco, Hong Kong Museum of Art, Singapore Museum of Art, Museum of East Asian Art Berlin, the Ashmolean Museum Oxford and the Taipei Fine Arts Museum Taiwan. In 2002, a solo exhibition of his works was held at the Musée Guimet Paris and at the Shiseido Foundation Tokyo.

About T'ang Haywen

Chinese-born painter Tang Haywen (1927-1991) moved to Paris in 1948 and spent his career there. Working largely in ink and watercolour, often in diptychs, he joined the gestures of Chinese calligraphy with the freedom of Western abstraction, producing landscapes that hover between form and void. Collectors look for signed works on paper, particularly well-preserved diptychs and larger ink compositions with strong tonal contrast.
