拍品描述

張大千(1899-1983）牡丹圖 高嶺梅舊藏 設色灑金箋本 镜框 Color and ink on gold flecked paper. Peony. Framed. Signed Daqian Jushi Yuan, with two seal marks of the artist, and a seal mark of the collector. Height: 9 1/4 in (23.5 cm) Width: 10 3/8 in (26.4 cm) Provenance:1.Formerly in the collection of Gao Lingmei (1913–1993);2. A private collection, Essex, United Kingdom;3. Acquired from the above by the present owner, “ Master of the Shuangzhen Studio,” and retained in the collection to the present day. 題識：大千居士爰。鈐印：張爰，大千，嶺梅珍藏。 本作尺幅雖不大，而氣象十足。畫面以一枝盛放牡丹為主體，花朵置於左側，淡粉設色，瓣緣以淡墨、淡赭略加勾染，層層舒展而不失空靈。花心點以石黃，醒目而含蓄；花瓣深處見濃淡變化，既有富貴花卉的華美，又不落甜俗。下方葉叢以濃墨、淡墨交錯寫出，筆勢沉著，水分充足，與灑金箋紙的溫潤底色相互映照。右下另有一朵小紅花與橫枝相呼應，使構圖不至孤立，形成一大一小、一盛一含的節奏。右側題款縱書，筆意瀟灑，並鈐朱印數方；下方藏印可見「高嶺梅珍藏」，顯示此作曾經高氏遞藏，來源尤可注意。高嶺梅為香港著名攝影家、收藏家，亦是張大千一生重要友人之一。二人交往甚深，情誼超出普通畫家與藏家關係。高氏稱大千為「八哥」，大千則稱其為「四弟」，可見彼此以兄弟相待。高嶺梅雅好攝影、戲曲與書畫，曾為張大千留下大量珍貴影像，亦自二十世紀四十年代起陸續購藏大千作品，加上大千親筆題贈，逐漸形成著名的「梅雲堂」收藏。易君左曾稱高嶺梅為張大千「異姓的愛弟」，足見其在大千交遊圈與收藏史中的特殊位置。此牡丹圖既可作張大千花卉小品觀賞，又因鈐有高嶺梅收藏印，而增添梅雲堂舊藏脈絡與文人交誼意味，尤具研究與收藏價值。 品相： Click here for natural light high resolution photos 高清細圖請點擊鏈接 Condition information is available by request, no later than 24 hours prior to the auction.
