「我一直喜歡于非闇的花卉，曾經父親幫助，在香港蘇富比購買一幅荷花立軸。七十年代，父母去上海旅行，他們經常去友誼商店，在那看到一幅于非闇的牡丹。他知道我會喜歡，立馬買下。這幅畫從未被展覽過，除了我家人和少數幾位朋友，也沒有人看過。」
─ 王元元

I have always liked flower paintings by Yu and I purchased a lotus hanging scroll at a Sotheby’s auction in HK with my father’s help. When my parents traveled to Shanghai in the 70s, they frequented the friendship stores where he saw this Yu Fei’an peony painting. He immediately purchased it knowing that I would love it. This painting has never been exhibited or seen by anyone except by my family and a few friends.
