ZHOU CHEN (CIRCA 1450-1535) Listening to the Sound of Waterfall and Pine TreesFrom A Very Important Hong Kong Collection香港重要私人收藏LOTS 222-223ZHOU CHEN (CIRCA 1450-1535)Listening to the Sound of Waterfall and Pine TreesInk and light colour on gold paper, fan leaf, framedSigned Dongcun Zhou Chen, with one seal of the artist and two collectors' seals18 x 51cm (7⅛ x 20⅛in)Provenance:Lots 222 and 223 were acquired in Shanghai in the 1940s. The family moved to Hong Kong in the late 1940s, and these two fine paintings had been tucked away for decades. Both paintings were remounted around 2000 by a very experienced restorer in Hong Kong.周臣 松風聼泉圖 淡設色泥金紙本 扇面 鏡框款識:東邨周臣。鈐印:周氏舜卿藏印:載、小農審定(裱邊)來源:一九四〇年代得於上海,二戰後藏家舉家移居香港,這兩件佳作一直秘藏於篋,近二十年方由晚輩覓良工重付裝池。註:周臣,字舜卿,號東村,蘇州人。明朝中期職業畫家。畫史上對其生平記載甚少,較早的有何良俊(1506-1573)於《四友齋叢說》:「其法宋人,學馬夏者若與戴靜庵(進)並驅,則互有所長。未知其果孰先也,亦是院體中一高手」。周臣的好友顧璘(1476-1545)《山中集》有詩〈周臣為余寫水墨山水大嶂,徐子仁特賞其妙,口占謝之〉云「崢嶸華岳三神峰,移置草堂雲霧濃。泉飛樹挺氣生動,羽人彷彿中林逢。周生作此特神妙,髯仙見之欲狂叫......」可見,周臣繪畫技法相當高超,能做巨幅山水,頗受時人讚譽。此外,周臣還有兩個聲名顯赫的學生,唐寅、仇英,明四家占其二,此足說明周臣之實力及影響力。 觀周臣的傳世畫作,多數未有款識,只落名款,亦不署年。從風格上看,主要受南宋院體影響,兼及宋元諸家之長,得馬遠、夏圭、李唐、劉松年之法尤深。構圖縝密,用筆健勁,墨色渾樸厚重,現藏美國納爾遜·埃特金斯美術館的〈北冥圖〉,即乃此種嚴謹紮實之面貌。畫中人物、草木、山石、房屋、水波、漩渦、霧靄,俱實交代,質感逼真,引人入勝。徐悲鴻將該作與范寬〈谿山行旅圖〉、宋人〈雪景〉、金農〈風雨歸舟圖〉並列,語謂「現存中國山水畫四支柱」。 本幅寫於泥金扇面,方寸之間,構圖十分飽滿,層次豐富,幾無留白,充分顯示東村對畫面的掌控及調度能力。畫面右起是繁密的樹林,林後潺潺溪水,由上至下奔流而出。近景兩棵參天巨松,盤根錯節,奇崛蒼古。視線再左行,至溪岸,危岩巨石用李唐刮鐵皴鈎斫,遠山小斧劈皴,稍作暈染,多些潤澤的氣息。溪岸另側,高士倚坐,觀松聽泉,隨侍一童子,氣氛恬淡閒適。畫中元素眾多,周臣經營運筆間,仍做到一絲不苟、面面俱到,讓觀者目不暇接,卻分毫不亂。 本作扇緣右側,鈐「載」印,所屬待考。裱邊「小農審定」,應為閔釗(1812-?)藏印。閔釗,字小農、子勉,號壽花庵主。錢塘 (今屬杭州)人。精鑑古,工書,善畫花卉。與錢松友善,錢氏為其刻印甚多。
