（晚清-近代，1871-1942）
紙本水墨，扇面雙挖
（1）釋文：宜興储氏每古文經義之學少吟詩者，吾近會得二人焉，一名潤書自玉琴，贈梅岑云：一曲吳歌酒半醺，當筵爭識杜司勛。天花作骨絲難綉，春水如情剪不分。話到西窗剛近月，人于東野願爲人。應知此後相思處，日日紅頭倚夕曛。
款識：為慶松仁弟再正，紉秋夏士蘭。
鈐印：士蘭之印
（2）款識：戴文節以北苑瀟湘圖法寫湘江莫雨，極得神味。余私淑文節不識有合處否。為慶松仁弟畫即請正，夏士蘭辛酉（1921）四月。
鈐印：鈐印一枚，漫漶不清

Property from the Collection of Leung Kum Wah, Ontario, Canada
Mr. LEUNG KIM WAH, an investment banker and avid collector, integrates his passion for art with his cultural activities. He has resided in Canada for four decades where he has held senior positions with major Canadian banks, and currently sits on the board of governors of the Chinese Culture Centre of Greater Toronto, as well as boards of Crown corporations of Canada. Mr. Leung regularly makes charitable contributions to universities, hospitals and Chinese communities.
Mr. Leung has developed close relationships with other collectors, having acquired fan paintings and many scroll paintings from the collection of the late Afonso Chen（陳毅生), a prominent attorney in Macau. Several paintings from this collection have been exhibited at the Royal Ontario Museum and illustrated in the accompanying catalogue More Than Keeping Cool: Chinese Fans and Fan Painting. Other pieces in Mr. Leung’s collection were purchased through the Chen family, well-known Southeast Asian collectors of paintings and calligraphy from the Lingnan and other schools, who also resided in Canada.
Mr. Leung’s commitment to the preservation of cultural heritage and legacy is evident in his collecting across categories; since the 1990s, Mr. Leong has developed a significant collection of Chinese painting and other arts.
