拍品專文

Each of these finely enameled plaques depicts a famous historical figure. They include, from left to right:

Lin Bu (sobriquet Hejing; 967-1028), who lived as a recluse by the West Lake for much of his later life. He never married, but metaphorically took on plum blossoms as his wife, and cranes as his children.

Ni Zan (sobriquet Yunlin; 1301-1374), the famous Yuan-dynasty painter known for his love of nature, particularly wutong trees. The scene depicted is derived from a story that a guest of Ni Zan spat on a utong tree and Ni Zan had his attendant clean the tree after the guest's departure.

Tao Yuanming (365-427), the famous reclusive poet of the Six Dynasties period, known for his love of chrysanthemums. As chrysanthemums were thought to grow in remote locations, the poet associated these flowers with a utopian country lifestyle.

Wang Xizhi (303-361), the acclaimed Eastern Jin calligrapher said to have derived his inspiration from natural forms, in particular the graceful necks of geese.
