- Lot Description
Wu Jiankun (Chinese, B. 1935) "Sunshine Peak in Lushan Mountains" Stamped lower left and upper right. Original Mixed Media on Rice Paper Glued to Heavy Paper.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This painting was published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the China 8fen Sunshine Peak stamp issued July 20, 1981.
Lushan's Sunshine Peak, with its quaint oriental pavilions, echoes the simple philosophy with which the Chinese come to terms with life, to "simply take things as they come." The beauty and climate of the Lushan Mountains encourage the visitor to do just that -- to stop for a moment and enjoy the surrounding view. Lushan offers such comforts as a sanatorium, a botanical garden, a cultural palace, and well-paved roads. But among the most inviting, and indeed the most appreciated of all its features, are its lovely pavilions, which line pathways on Sunshine Peak. The beauty and pleasure of these resting spots lie not only in their scenery, but in their fascinating varieties of design and purpose. A pavilion may be square, round, multi-sided, or shaped like a crabapple or plum blossom. It may be a rustic thatched pavilion, an elegant bamboo pavilion, or a wood framed pavilion. It may be intended for use during a certain time of day or year -- a pavilion for enjoying a snow scene, for looking at the clouds, or for watching the sun set. A pavilion may be found by a lake or stream, half-way up a hill, amid a grove of pines, beside a flower bed, or on a bridge, serving as a pointer or guide to the particular landscape. Built for enjoyment, the pavilions of Sunshine Peak encourage the visitor to linger for a while, to enjoy life and adopt the simple Chinese philosophy of quietly accepting life as it.
