The original Twelve Flowers in Ink with Accompanying Poems is a national treasure protected by the Nanjing Museum. Because of its age and the sensitivity of the paper, it is rarely fully unrolled for the public. SinoInArt has undertaken the mission of bringing this "Divine Class" masterpiece out of the vault and into the private collections of art lovers worldwide.
Our 1:1 museum-quality replica is the result of a rigorous heritage journey. Using high-definition multi-spectral scanning, we capture every historic detail—from the subtle aging of the Ming paper to the dozens of red seals left by emperors and connoisseurs who have cherished this scroll over the centuries.
We use archival pigments and a 12-color Giclée system to reproduce the "Spirit of the Ink." Xu Wei’s work relies on the transparency of the ink layers, and our printing technology ensures that the "light" shines through the "dark," maintaining the three-dimensional depth of the original ink wash.
The substrate is equally important. We use a premium, long-fiber Xuan paper that has been specially treated to mimic the absorbency of the original scroll. This ensures that the replica doesn't just look like the original; it reacts to light and touch in the same organic way, preserving the "Breath-Resonance" (Qiyun) of the Ming Dynasty.
Presented with authentic Suzhou Yun Brocade mounting, a SinoInArt replica is a piece of living history. It allows you to study Xu Wei’s "Twelve Flowers" in its full, unrolled glory—a privilege once reserved only for the highest-ranking scholars and emperors.
