ٙ৵ʸʝމڌ༁e Since antiquity, the horse head has symbolized
݈ϓሳf power and conquest. Yet, to go aginst such
tradition, Zhang Yingnan deliberately conceals
ኋ၍ɚ٫ίൖᙂٙʹ the head and depicts the animal’s posterior,
፹ɨًЧਅ༾dྼყ which introduces a layer of mystery to the
ɪۍཞഹʔΝၪܓٙ work. In the painting a horse emerges from the
൷ᕎdܦνՇૢ̻Б garden on the right whilst another within the
ᇞdೌج༺Ցॆ͍จ window frame comes from the left, the two

Ӏٙੵߵίยֻ̏ via a dimensional crack. The artist’s play of
