المنشيءChuah Thean Teng
الوصفFarming by Chuah Thean Teng is an almost chimerical observation of agricultural life in Malaya before the outbreak of the Japanese War. The viewer is granted a lofty view of farmers tilling the ground with their ox beneath a coconut and a palm tree. Chuah has liberally recombined some of the most distinct elements of rural agricultural life in this print.A woodcut depicting a typical Malaysian rural landscape in a Chinese hanging scroll format. Two tall coconut trees dominate a pastoral scene of farmers plowing their fields with oxen. It is an early Chuah Thean Teng long before his venture into the art of batik painting which earned for him a world wide reputation as Malaysia's first modern master painter using the traditional batik technique.
