描述

  • Bian Shoumin
  • 淺渚歸鴻
  • 設色紙本 立軸
款識:
清江一片秋,淺渚蘆花夾。我意貌歸鴻,有人呼作鴨。
余畫學無師承,畫雁而有似乎鴨,無怪人言之詬厲也。將與黃鵠比翼乎,抑與雞鶩爭食乎?余之生平亦於畫卜之矣。雍正壬子(1732)七月,邊壽民。

鈐印:
頤公、壽民。

Artist's inscription:
An autumn scene all along the clear river: a shallow bank interspersed with blossoming reed-grass.
I intend to represent returning wild geese, but someone calls them ducks.
I learnt painting without proper instruction. When I paint wild geese, they look instead like ducks. The insults and abuses are no surprise! Am I to fly amongst swans, or am I to fight for food with chickens and ducks? Alas, my entire life has been foretold in my painting. Seventh month of the renzi year of the Yongzheng reign (1732), Bian Shoumin.
