民國 粉彩山水圖瓷板 「汪野亭」款

款識: 雲暗重重樹,煙橫面面山,蒼茫人獨步,意在有無間。 時在壬申年(1932年)春月之浣,仿鳥目山人之大意。野亭作。
印文: 印

來源:於二十世紀九十年代晚期購自Dominic Jellinek Ltd.和Carter Oriental Ltd.,相信他們是直接從已故知名二十世紀瓷器收藏家Anthony Evans手上購得

The poem may be translated as:

Dark clouds over layer upon layer of trees,
Mists ring every mountain,
In this vast landscape a lone man walks,
His thoughts continuous.
In spring in renshen year, in the style of Niaomu shanren.
By (Wang)Yeting.
