Lǚ Jì (Lü Chi, traditional: 呂紀, simplified: 吕纪); ca. (1477-unknown) was a Chinese painter of primarily bird and flower works during the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644).

“Lü Ji’s Scroll of Lotus, Eagle, and Egret” is a renowned masterpiece in Chinese art history. The painting depicts a scene featuring lotus flowers, an eagle, and an egret. The author of this artwork is Lü Ji, a Chinese painter from the Ming Dynasty (approximately the mid-Ming period), known for his landscape and flower-bird paintings. With delicate brushwork and exquisite technique, the painting vividly captures the graceful charm of the lotus, the majestic presence of the eagle, and the graceful posture of the egret.

This painting holds significant importance in Chinese art history and represents one of the peaks of Ming Dynasty flower-bird painting. It showcases the artist’s keen observation of the natural world, profound understanding, and artistic expression of life’s beauty and emotions.

“Lü Ji’s Scroll of Lotus, Eagle, and Egret” is a precious heritage of Chinese painting, exemplifying traditional Chinese painting techniques and aesthetic sensibilities. It serves as an outstanding example for appreciating the mastery of Chinese traditional artistry and aesthetics.

I tried to use gold color to enhance the artistic depiction of the lotus and added the calligraphy for “Eagle.”
