鳴遠堂藏


註:本幅題曰「效北宋劉道士法」。世傳劉道士之〈湖山清曉圖〉,曾為「大風堂」舊藏。一九四六年,大千先生往故都搜求戰亂時流散的書畫,得上述劇迹,初謂巨然之作,經研究後判斷乃劉道士手筆。同年夏,他在成都臨有一本,直到一九五一年客居印度大吉嶺時復臨一過。以張謝之交誼深厚,經常切磋論藝,鑑賞古人書畫,故謝氏所取法之劉道士,或可能就是借鑑於「大風堂」上述之藏品,蓋劉道士傳世畫迹稀矣!

四十年代後期,謝稚柳筆下山水用功於宋人,對董巨畫風鑽研尤深。從本幅所見,劉道士法與巨然面貌甚為類近,故無論孰劉孰巨,都是巨師畫風的體現,其中滲合了畫家在再現過程中的融貫而生的調適變化。當中重巒叠嶂,佈局嚴整見序,緊密卻無壓逼難舒之弊,上方飛瀑如白練直瀉,配合右角一隅的江水帆颺,令肅穆靜謐的畫面頓見生機,動止之關係諧協。畫家寫來細緻,一石一樹,勾針葉、點苔,以至如魚網狀的水紋,筆筆精準,畫幅大而繁密,卻無絲毫敷衍。其體勢恢宏,氣象萬千,反映了畫家盛年時期筆下取法宋人的豐碩成果,洵屬四十年代後期之傑構。

畫上「龍鍾三十九」朱文印,這是專用於一九四八年作品上之印記。因是年畫家年屆三十九歲,故具紀年之用,又兼喻他自詡「老成持重」之意,遂倩金石名家方介堪刻成。依傳世畫迹所見,鈐用此印者多屬師宋人山水,水墨紙本,尺幅為小中堂,兼寫於是年冬,應是畫家同期潛心研習的系列作品之一。
