Catalogue Note

Artist inscription:
Written a few days after the passing of Master Zhang (Daqian). 

This time in my Little Venice studio in London, I spent the whole night trying hard to paint. The thunder storm has darkened the sky and obscured everything. The death of my teacher has sent me into endless grief. I've remained in a terrible mood even though I've started writing and painting again, (however) what I've drawn only seems to amplify my grief.
