題跋:陳繼儒 (1558-1639):唐文皇石刻昭陵六馬,故子孫多馬癖,代宗有九花虬,德宗有神智驄、如意騮。飾以黃金勒,控以紫玉鞭,豢以一品料。故其圖流傳人間,歌詠不絕。此卷唐人筆,題跋剪截已去,幸人馬尚爾平安,無錫王麟郭先生世藏,其孫福州守曼浤公能永護之,環回諦玩,姿態毛骨如生,所謂寫渥洼之狀,不在水中,移騕褭之形,出於天上。定為曹霸所作,即公麟輩未能與之絕塵而爭驅也。雲間陳繼儒題於頑仙廬。

無款明人題:此卷予既請眉公先生題識,信其筆法之妙非近代丹青家所辨。獨云:出自唐人手,未有確據,攷其楮尾印章二:一任氏子明,一月山道人。暇日偶閱李九疑紫桃軒襍綴,迺知為元人任水監也,按襍綴云:元任仁發字子明號月山,世居松之青龍鎮,年十八中鄊試貳,都水監開江置閘,凡水議,仁發主之。善繪事,嘗奉旨入內畫渥洼天馬圖。所著有水利書十卷。今人止稱任水監,畫馬蓋以藝掩云。然則任以畫馬得名甚著,而眉公未及詳核,因附記於此。崇禎壬申 (1632年) 二月之七日輞川館主人記。

Property from the Estate of Walter Hochstadter.
Walter Hochstadter's life revolved around China and its rich art and culture. Born in Augsburg, Germany in 1914, he spent most of his life traveling the globe until he passed away in Australia in 2007. In his early twenties, Mr. Hochstadter journeyed to China, where he studied at the College of Chinese Studies in Beijing. Constantly traveling between East and West, Mr. Hochstadter maintained homes for most of his years in Hong Kong and New York.
Although a very private individual, Mr. Hochstadter was well known among connoisseurs, scholars, and collectors of Chinese art. His clients included the most active American collectors of their day, including Avery Brundage, C.C. Wang, and J.T. Tai. Mr. Hochstadter also sold or donated art to numerous museums in the United States and Europe. In addition, he also gifted works of art to the National Palace Museum, Taipei and the University of Hong Kong, where he was named an Honorary Fellow in the late 1950s.
His dedication to the study of Chinese art resulted in the authorship of highly regarded scholarly texts on early Chinese ceramics and on the artist Shen Zhou. His later years were spent conducting research and collecting photographs for A Compendium of Chinese Paintings, in which he sought to present a canon of reliably authentic paintings by China's great masters. It is presumed that Mr. Hochstadter intended for these two paintings to form an important part of his book.
