    Description

    all in good condition
    Hand-held fan started out as a useful tool became an objet d’ art as literati of ancient times started inscribing poetry or paintings on the fan. With a wide arc that tapers off to a point, foldable fans make an excellent, unique medium for creative composition. They also lend a lovely flair to the artists’ work. To raise better awareness of Chinese culture, the Post is issuing two souvenir sheets, featuring a work written in running-cursive script on a fan covering by Wen Zhengming of the Ming dynasty. The fan is a prized exhibit of the National Museum of History. Wen was a prominent painter and calligrapher. His signature penmanship includes the small regular script and running script. This particular piece is a seven-character regulated verse ("qilu"). The design of the stamp shown on this collection is a fan-shape. To add to philately interest, the stamp is printed on paper and bamboo chips, at NT and NT, respectively. Being made from natural material, it should be adequately stored
