This April, an extremely rare splashed-colour gold screen by Zhang Daqian will make its auction debut in Hong Kong. Celebrating Sotheby’s 50th anniversary in Asia, the Fine Chinese Paintings department presents Pink Lotuses on Gold Screen, a masterpiece created in 1973 and treasured by the family of the eminent collector C.S. Loh for half a century. This magnificent work of art features a captivating depiction of a blooming lotus pond brought to life with a dynamic blend of vivid colours and a rich lustre of glittering gold, conveying a sense of wonder that stands the test of time.

今年四月，乘蘇富比亞洲五十週年誌慶，蘇富比中國書畫部隆重呈獻張大千〈花開十丈影參差〉。本作寫於一九七三年，繪潑彩荷花於金屏風，乃張大千筆下稀見之作，並由陸菊森家族珍藏半世紀。取材日本製雙摺金屏風，高寬六呎，氣派堂皇，畫上以水墨、礦物顏料大塊面潑灑，大片荷葉上覆下蓋，迎風招展，配以粉色嫩荷，花瓣素淨，掩映葉塊間，益顯嬌柔欲滴，水氣濔漫之荷塘景象畢現。全畫色調對比強列，豔麗奪目，張力滿盈，足見畫家駕馭此巨製時得心應手，大開大闔間，盡顯其豪爽磊落之個性。
