齊白石 水仙石鵪 設色紙本 立軸ProvenanceFar East Fine Arts, San Francisco, CaliforniaPublishedJung Ying Tsao, The Paintings of Xugu and Qi Baishi, 1993, no 5, pp. 266-269.來源加州舊金山遠東藝術畫廊出版曹仲英,The Paintings of Xugu and Qi Baishi,1993年,圖錄編號5,266-269頁The subject of narcissus is relatively rare in the oeuvre of Qi Baishi. Of the few instances of the artist rendering this springtime flower, most date from the 1920s and 1930s, a likely dating for the present work as well. Translated in the 1993 publication, the poem reads:Cold snow, chilly wind, cracked ice:This is the season when the narcissus blooms.With whom will the flowers speak of friendship,Under the trees, the bright moon and delicate plum blossoms?
