Wang Yeting (1884-1942), was one of the best-known members of the Jingdezhen porcelain painters known as the 'Eight Friends of Zhushan'. These porcelain painters were instrumental in the revival of the porcelain industry, following the fall of the Qing dynasty and subsequent cessation of Imperial orders for porcelain.

汪野亭（1884-1942），名平，字鑑，號平山、平生、老平，垂釣子，亦號傳芳居士，平山草堂主人，齋名平山草堂，江西省樂平縣人。為景德鎮20世紀20年代在、珠山八友大師之一。此瓷板繪於民國二十八年（1939年），屬於汪晚年作品，畫風與前期及中期作品已有分別，筆意更加灑脫粗放，又不失蒼古熟練。
