川景の掛軸二点:『赤壁賛』と『秋の川辺の隠遁釣り人』 - Paper, Silk - Japan - 20th century

Short description of the item and its origin This curated lot features a matched pair of traditional East Asian river landscape hanging scrolls (shanshui / sansui-ga), bringing together literary history and serene seclusion: ●Scroll 1: First Ode to the Red Cliff (前赤壁赋图). Ink and subtle color on paper, depicting Su Shi's famous literary scene with steep river cliffs, a tranquil boat on the water, and the complete text of the classical prose inscribed above. Paper mounting (纸裱). Overall dimensions: 187 cm × 45.5 cm (painting core: 135 cm × 33.5 cm). ●Scroll 2: Secluded Angler on an Autumn River (秋江渔隐图). Executed in refined ink monochrome on paper, depicting a lone fisherman in a small boat on a tranquil autumn river flanked by sparse trees and distant shores. Silk brocade mounting (绫裱), from a Japanese collection. Overall dimensions: 190 cm × 43 cm (painting core: 127 cm × 32 cm). Collector’s Value & Benefits The artistic vision for pairing these two scrolls into a single lot lies in the thematic dialogue between Classical Literature & Hermit Seclusion (赤壁与渔隐、文与画互补). One scroll represents a historic literary monument—Su Shi’s grand reflection on nature and time at the Red Cliff—where calligraphy and landscape seamlessly merge. The other captures the contemplative, quiet lifestyle of a scholar-fisherman wandering on an autumn river. Together, the expressive calligraphy-heavy narrative and the poetic river landscape create an intriguing complementary pair for Asian art enthusiasts, tea spaces, or scholarly display.
