Subject:Help reading chinese inscription
Posted By: Poet Thu, Feb 27, 2025 IP: 186.204.62.136

Hello Mr.I Nagy and others,

I would like to request assistance in reading and translating an inscription on a Chinese painting.
This is what I have been able to read so far:

苗日見黃苓迊某X人X徐熙野速黃荃富貫璀𤨪真如珠王滿前也X幅沫仜X法冢X癸X六月大X張季暖


Thanks in advance!

This is my reading and rough translation of the inscription.

曽見黄荃画某昔 云徐照野速黄荃　富貴璀璨真如珠　玉満前此也幅疑　黄荃沈周両家法　以慧殊仁兄法家　正之
癸亥六月　大千張　季爰

In the past I have seen a painting by Huang Quan. It is said that Xu Zhaoye had a rapid, rich and brilliant style like true pearl. This painting of Yu Man in front of me is a doubtful one.
Huang Quan and Shen Zhou were both the remarkable representants of the same school.
In June of the Year of Water－Pig （1983) by
Dachian Zhang Jiyuan
Upper seal,
季爰之印　Seal of Jiyuan
Lower seal,
大千　Dachian

Zhang Daqian 張大千　1899-1983

With regards,
I.Nagy
