萬青屴 上古遺民 設色紙本 立軸 一九九七年作

詩堂:
上古遺民。讀趙松雪〈吳興賦〉,以將還敦樸於上古為題,信手圖之。余作畫一曝十寒,又如昔時京戲玩票,忽余忽楊,不過一時忘情而已。此圖累數日始成,自覺不佳,奈何時間不容再重作一幀,好在尚未入摩登,新潮人或冷眼清觀,今日尚有愚頑如此者也。丁丑(1997)四月,萬青屴。鈐印:萬、青力、山水☐☐

款識:
上古遺民。丁丑(1997)四月初夏,萬青屴。

鈐印:萬、青力、宣城、小棚友、萬、肖形印

註:萬青屴畢業於中央美術學院,先後師從吳作人、李可染、陸儼少。一九八四年赴美留學,師從堪薩斯大學教授李鑄晉,獲藝術史碩士及哲學博士。一九八九年起,執教於香港大學藝術學系。二〇一三年,香港藝術館特邀萬青屴將其珍藏的近現代師友作品,舉辦「存念─萬青屴珍藏師友餽贈書畫印」展覽,以誌其思懷老師、摯友的深厚情誼。
萬青屴專精於中國近現代繪畫史的研究,專著包括《李可染評傳》、《李可染的世界》、《萬青屴美術文集》、《並非衰落的百年十九世紀中國繪畫史》以及與乃師李鑄晉合著的《中國現代繪畫史》〈 晚清之部〉、〈民初之部〉、〈當代之部〉三部曲。
