ABC Wednesday

The letter this week is X


Xu Gu   1824-1896

A painting by the Chinese painter and poet Xu Gu (Hsu Ku)

during the Qing Dynasty (1844-1912)

Xu Gu was born in Xin'an in the Anjui province and later lived in
Guangling in the Jiangsu province. 
Xu was an army official, and then later a monk.
When painting he used the side of the brush in a fluent and
bold style.
In poetry he produced the work Poetry of Xugo monk. 
All this information was kindly given to me by Google!
