Zhiqian Zhao

Provenance

佚名　楷書〈大般若波羅蜜多經〉斷簡　水墨紙本　鏡框
趙之謙題引首　姚虞琴題跋

引首：
佛。同治乙丑（1865）十一月，趙之謙自都下歸，始敬篆。

題跋：
一心仰企西來意，千佛名經證夙因。奇絕趙家寫經手，蓮華妙法誦金銀。叔弢仁兄索題殘經，庚午（1930）立夏，六十四叟姚虞琴草。

鈐印：趙撝叔（引首）、姚虞琴（題跋）

藏印：弢翁珍玩、曾在周叔弢處

註：據藏印及姚虞琴跋，此件曾為周叔弢（1891-1984）藏。叔弢名暹，以字行，晚號弢翁，齋名自莊嚴堪。安徽建德人。出身名門，祖父周馥（1837-1921）乃晚清重臣，歷任山東巡撫，兩江、兩廣總督，曾助李鴻章推行洋務運動。父周學海（1856-1906）為光緒進士，潛心醫學。周氏嗜收藏，尤以宋元舊槧、古籍善本為精，亦包括敦煌遺書、歷代璽印及書畫。其藏敦煌遺書二百五十六卷，十餘卷有北齊、隋、唐及五代之年號，極為珍貴。
題跋者姚虞琴 (1867-1961)，名瀛，號景瀛。浙江餘杭人。民國後定居上海，與吳昌碩、陳夔龍等常聚於海上題襟館。工詩，擅畫蘭竹，精鑒藏。傳世有《珍帚齋詩畫稿》。
