Yan Pei-Ming

Timonier 009

A large-scale oil painting by Yan Pei-Ming, *Timonier 009* presents a commanding portrait rendered in the artist's signature bold, gestural brushwork. The work employs a dramatically reduced palette, with sweeping strokes of paint building a powerful, almost monumental presence. True to Ming's practice, the image balances raw painterly energy with a charged sense of political and historical weight.
