"Spring in the House"

This collection of miniature penjing in a bogu frame, by Li Yunlong, is titled Spring in the House. Photo borrowed from Penjing: The Chinese Art of Bonsai by Zhao Qingquan (Better Link Press, 2012).

Previously, I posted other penjing photos here & here.

A book full of these would be pretty nice.

penjing arrangement


This is an arrangement of miniature 盆景 penjing on furniture, scanned from a booklet whose English title is China - a Land of Beauty Shanghai, published in 1978.

I can read this as an abstract comic (a pretty ambient one) or a visual poem.

Carlos Matuck of Brazil has done some desenhos (drawings) of Chinese scholars' stones, one in particular looking like comics: 5th one (2nd row, 2nd drawing) here.
