王震 桃實壽石

款識：
物最石悠久，長比南山壽；桃惟瑤池有，種自西王母。

戊午仲秋。白龍山人王震。

鈐印：「一亭大利」、「鶴舞」。

歐洲私人收藏海上名家作品 （編號1405－1409）

本輯收藏者乃法國資深外交官。六十年代至七十年代期間，歷任駐華大使館二等祕書、駐匈牙利大使館二等祕書、駐蘇聯大使館一等祕書。又獲任法國駐聯合國日內瓦辦事處的常任代表，擢升至具大使銜。據其憶述，一九六八年一月至一九七〇年五月，正值「文化大革命」熾熱期間，供職於駐北京大使館。因得睹館內仝事所藏傅抱石山水，深受啓發，翌日即往琉璃廠的文物商店購置書畫。

本輯所集，皆在華期間得自北京文物商店。部份於一九六八年聯同英、法、瑞典等駐華外交人員之藏品，展於英國駐北京代辦處。其所藏之傅抱石、黃賓虹、吳昌碩、徐悲鴻等作品，先後於二○一二至一四年間在香港蘇富比拍賣中釋出。
