A Hundred Horses was Painted by Giuseppe Castiglione (郎世宁), an Italian Jesuit missionary and Qing court painter, during the 18th century, One Hundred Horses is a monumental handscroll blending Western realism with traditional Chinese aesthetics. The scene unfolds in a serene grassland valley, featuring 100 horses in dynamic poses—grazing, galloping, resting, and interacting. Accompanied by herdsmen and set against lush trees, rocky outcrops, and a winding stream, the horses display meticulous anatomical accuracy and lifelike textures. Castiglione’s use of chiaroscuro (light-shadow contrast) and linear perspective creates depth, while retaining the poetic atmosphere of Chinese ink landscapes.
In essence, the painting transcends its equestrian subject to become a testament to artistic innovation and historical interconnectedness.
