A CARVED AND INSCRIBED 'ZHAO BIAN' PLAQUE
清十八/十九世紀 白玉趙抃琴鶴圖珮

QING DYNASTY, 18TH/19TH CENTURY

細節
古人常以琴鶴相隨,表示清高、廉潔。典故來自宋朝官僚,與當時包拯齊名的鐵面御史趙抃。趙抃為官清廉,據《宋史‧趙抃傳》記載道:「帝曰:聞卿匹馬入蜀,以一琴一鶴自隨;為政簡易,亦稱是乎!」。

The scholar on the current plaque refers to the Song dynasty official Zhao Bian, who was known to be a virtuous and upright man, bringing along nothing but a crane and a qin to Sichuan when he was appointed governor there.
