'Wu Zuoren and Xiao Shufang are two of the foremost artists of contemporary China. Their works are fine examples of combining the art of traditional Chinese painting with that of Western painting. Simplicity, clear expression and vigour mark the works of these artists, whether Wu Zuoren's ink-and-wash drawings of animals or Xiao Shufang's colour paintings of flowers. The brushwork is condensed and masterly, the composition delicate and clear. The artistic conception transcends and excels reality.' - extracted from texts on the inside front cover. With artist biographies.
