TWO LEAVES OF PAINTING AND CALIGRAPHY
QING DYNASTY, 19TH CENTURY
清 荷塘清趣圖 及 杜甫詩三首 水墨設色絹本 鏡框題識: 荷塘清趣、師玉壺外史意煥甫；花隱掖垣暮，啾啾棲鳥過。星臨萬戶動，月傍九霄多。不寢聽金鑰，因風想玉珂。明朝有封事，數問夜如何。晝刻傳呼淺，春旗簇仗齊。退朝花底散，歸院柳邊迷。樓雪融城濕，宮雲去殿低。避人焚諫草，騎馬欲雞棲。冠冕通南極，文章落上台。詔從三殿去，碑到百蠻開。野（館濃花）發，春帆細雨來。不知滄海上，天遣幾時回。鈐印: 兩枚不辨ink and colour on silk, one side painted in the style of Gai Qi (1773-1828) with two ladies, titled, inscribed, sealed; reverse inscribed with three poems by Du Fu (712-770), sealed, framed
