Xia Kui
Xia Kui is a Ming Painting artist. 4 works are cataloged here, principally at Cleveland Museum of Art.
Xia Kui made ink paintings of daily life in 16th-century China. His handscroll Visiting Dai Kui on a Snowy Night shows scholars bundled against snow, while Children at Play captures kids tumbling in a courtyard. His brushwork is light and lively, grounded in the Northern Song tradition but pushed into the Ming era. Tap Children at Play to see more scenes of Ming life.
