Wen Chu was a Chinese illustrator and painter, considered the finest flower painter of the period. She was known for paintings of flora and small insects, and she prefers to focus on a few essential elements in the composition presented against a plain background. Her approach was seen as intimate rather than showy, with a careful composition that often frames glimpses of delicate flowers with rough rocks.
