We haven’t seen each other for more than two months. Today I am suddenly thinking of her. I am not a hero and can’t be unaffected by human emotions, let alone my approaching old age! This work is painted to dispel my low spirits. Recorded by Fu Baoshi on the first day of the fifth lunar month, the renyin year [1962], in Nanjing. translation: remark: inscription: The artist’s second inscription: Today I sent Xiaoxiao [Fu Yishan 傅益珊] to the hospital. She is beginning to recover. After returning from the Xiling Gorge, as I picked up this painting again, I thought more about the passage of time. So I added the twisted roots and gnarled branches of the green pines, giving them a posture of endurance. Recorded on the twentieth day of the leap fourth month in the guimao year [1963] by Baoshi. translation: remark: --- CURRENT EXHIBITIONS title: The Art of Fu Baoshi (1904 - 1965) opening date: 2011-10-16T00:00:00 The Art of Fu Baoshi (1904 - 1965).
