Footnotes

姚華　墨梅　水墨紙本　立軸

款識：
平生厭見花時節，惟只愛，梅花發。破寒迎臘吐幽姿，占斷一番清絕。照溪印月，帶煙和雨，傍竹仍藏雪。松煤淡出宜孤潔。最嫌把，鉛華說。暗香銷盡欲飄零，須得笛聲嗚咽。這些風味，自家領略，莫與傍人說。楊補之《御街行》詞，茫父補梅。

鈐印：姚華私印、孤研生冰、燒燈續昼、夢輕難記

註：楊無晷（1097-1171），字補之，南宋詞人、書畫家。尤擅繪墨梅，據明代吳元素《松齋梅譜》：「墨梅自華光始」，而楊無晷繼承了華光和尚的畫法，並發展出墨筆圈線之梅，更加形神兼備。姚氏錄楊補之詠梅詞，並落款「茫父補梅」，似與古人神交合作，又意在與前人比肩。左下三方閒章，皆出自宋詞，古蘊悠然，與畫面相得益彰。
