Goldfish by Sanyu

Goldfish is a vibrant and highly significant oil painting by Chinese-French artist Sanyu, a key figure in modern Chinese art who bridged Eastern and Western aesthetics. Created in the 1930s to 1940s, this work features his characteristic elegant line work and sparse composition. The subject, a lone goldfish, is rendered with a simple, lyrical beauty against a backdrop often defined by rich, textured color. This piece set a world auction record for an animal-subject work by the artist, confirming the increasing international recognition of Sanyu’s unique blend of Parisian modernism and traditional Chinese ink-brush sensibility.
