Chinese ink and color on silk painting signed Dai Jun戴峻 (aka Gu Yan 古岩) featuring a man and horse standing beneath a pine tree looking up at Xiwangmu, Queen Mother of the West, riding on a chariot in the clouds with attendants beside her. The calligraphy at the upper right includes a cycle date of 1880. Dai Jun was a Qing landscape painter from Suzhou who painted in the style of Ming artist Tang Yin. Cream colored silk mounting. Frame: 35 3/4” x 21 3/4” (painting: 27 5/8” x 13 5/8”). Very nicely framed and glazed. Both the painting and frame appear to be in very good overall condition. The painting is slightly toned from age and is possibly mounted to a firm backing. From the collection of Gordon Lee Burke (1893-1963) by descent. Born in Shanghai to missionaries, Burke entered the U.S. foreign service after WWI and was considered an authority on China. He served as vice consul in Hankow, Chefoo, and Foochow, China; a language officer in Beijing; and consul in Tientsin. He departed from China when the U.S. entered WWII.
