Wu Chen left many masterpieces of landscape painting following the style of Chu-jan, but he is also known as a master of ink bamboo painting studying from the style of Wen T'ung. This album is a comprehensive compilation of the latter produced when Wu Chen was seventy-one to be given to his son Fo-nu. Each leaf has an inscription by Wu Chen himself, from which his profile as an excellent calligrapher can also be perceived.
