About me / Bio:
Wen Boren was a Chinese painter, calligrapher and writer during the Ming dynasty (1368–1644). He was a native of Huating, but he did not pursue a career as an official, choosing instead to lead a secluded life in the mountains of present-day Jiangsu province. He was a prolific prose writer and poet, who wrote extensively on various subjects including literature, painting, tea, pottery, and life. He was a notable author of the xiaopin, a form of short literary essay. He also created purple clay teapots in the Yixing style and painted landscapes and elegant still lifes. His calligraphy followed the style of Su Shi and Mi Fu. He left an autobiography which contains a fictitious account of the circumstances of his own death.
