Mongolian Fine Art Masterpiece ‘Temeen Sureg’
Видео
In this edition of the series ‘Mongolian Fine
Art Masterpiece’ brought to you by MONTSAME News Agency in cooperation with
Mongolian National Art Gallery, we are presenting the artwork, ‘Temeen Sureg’
(A Pack of Camels) by artist B.Chintogtokh.
The artwork was painted on a 60x150 cm canvas
using gouache in 1981.
Using a pack of two-humped camels that take only
10 percent of the global camel population to bring forward the features of
Mongolian nomadic culture, the artwork symbolizes the continuity of the Mongol
method for herding livestock. With a theme of tranquility, the appearance and
movements of all the camels are clearly depicted through intricate details.
Each one of their movements, attitudes, and appearances is quite realistic
despite being unique. The setting for Mongolian artworks, skillfulness in using
thin brush strokes, line art as well as perspective and light and shadow
techniques commonly found in European arts are all used to create the artwork.
Encapsulating nomadic heritage as well as
traditional craftsmanship, the piece, ‘Temeen Sureg’, by artist Chintogtokh is
one of the artworks to proudly represent the 20th century, during which there
were big changes made in depiction and artistic mindset.
