拍品專文

One should not be mistaken by the word 'abstract'. In Pailthorpe's own vision of, and work upon, the mind, it implies a composition spontaneously and directly derived from the mind, the dream or the pure imagination, with, apparently, no link with any identifiable concrete elements. But we know, as she did, that it is not abstract from an art historical point of view.
