Huang Binhong (1865-1955), originally named Maozhi and later renamed Zhi, was also known by his zi (designated name) Pucun and later Binhong by which he was primarily known. He was born in Jinhua in Zhejiang, but he was native to She county in Anhui. He was a master of landscape painting and seal engraving. This particular work showcases his freehand brushwork with red and white hibiscus flowers. His vigorous yet unconstrained strokes are complemented by an elegant colour palette.
