Condition
The painting has some staining, possibly from moisture, particularly vertically along the far left side. There are creases, most noticeably towards the base from rolling and unrolling which has caused some abrasion and tiny losses.

Yunpu was the sobriquet of Fei Chun (1739-1811), a civil official from Qiantang in Zhejiang province. During his career he held a number of posts including Governor of Jiangsu, Governor of Fujian, Governor-general of Zhejiang and Jiangsu, Secretary of the Board of Works and Secretary of Labor.
In terms of Chinese art, realistic portraiture was a relatively late development. The early Chinese words for portrait were yintu (shadow painting) or fushen (image of the soul). The idea was to capture the spirit of the individual rather than an exact likeness. With the arrival of Western missionaries, Chinese art adopted the use of shading and perspective, both apparent in this present portrait.
