"Crab" by Shen Zhou is a renowned Chinese ink painting created by the Ming dynasty artist Shen Zhou (1427–1509). Shen Zhou was a prominent figure in the Wu School of painting, which emphasized the importance of personal expression and literati values in art. "Crab" exemplifies Shen Zhou's delicate brushwork and mastery of the literati style, which sought to convey the inner spirit of the subject rather than a realistic representation.

The painting features a solitary crab amidst a sparse setting, a subject that resonates with the Chinese literati tradition where the crab often symbolizes resilience and a reclusive nature, echoing the values of the scholar-artist who retreats from public life to engage in personal cultivation and artistic pursuits. The artwork is executed with fine lines and subtle ink washes, capturing the essence of the crab with an economy of strokes that is characteristic of Chinese ink painting.

"Crab" by Shen Zhou is not only a testament to the artist's skill in portraying nature but also reflects the philosophical and cultural milieu of the Ming dynasty. The painting is celebrated for its simplicity and depth, inviting viewers to contemplate the broader themes of nature and the human experience. As a significant work in the history of Chinese art, "Crab" continues to be studied and admired for its aesthetic qualities and its embodiment of the literati spirit.
