石渠寶笈三編(延春閣),第六冊,頁2679&*故宮書畫錄(卷八),第四冊,頁163&*藍深,字謝青,浙江杭州人,藍瑛(西元一五八五-?)之孫。山水得其祖傳,妙於錯綜變化,悉合古法,畫法亦灑落不俗。 此圖藍深自題倣李成,實則筆墨全脫胎於其祖藍瑛,雖不及瑛之潑辣老練,然自有佳趣。圖上年款為康熙十年(一六七一)六月,收於「明人集繪」冊中,該冊之畫多作於是歲夏日,顯見係明末清初杭州一帶知名畫家應邀所作之集冊,惜冊中無收藏題記,難以得知畫作之背景。&*Imitating Li Ch’eng’s “Eternal Autumn in Southern Mountains” Lan Shen (fl. Late 17th century) Ch’ing Dynasty Lan Shen (style name; Hsieh-ch’ing) was a native of Hangchow, Chekiang, and the grandson of Lan Ying (1585-?) Lan Shen inherited his grandfather’s tradition of landscape painting and was marvelous in creating complicated variations of landscapes which combine the methods of the ancients. His calligraphy is casual and elegant without being commonplace. In his inscription on this painting, Lan Shen wrote that he was imitating Li Ch’eng (fl. 10th century), but the style is actually completely derived from that of his grandfather. Although Lan Shen’s style is not as forceful and mature as that of Lan Ying, it still has its own excellent points. The inscription on this painting is dated to the sixth lunar month of 1671. The painting is from the album “Collected Works of Ming Dynasty Painters.” Most of the paintings were probably done in the summer of that year and then later apparently collected together to form an album by famous painters of Hangchow from the late Ming and early Ch’ing. Unfortunately, no records of collectors are in the album, so it is difficult to acquire an understanding of the background to the paintings.
