獨馬圖(金農)The lone horse by Jin Nong
水墨紙本立軸 Hanging scroll, ink on paper
金農(1687–1763)，仁和(今浙江杭州)人。雍正十三年(1735)開博學鴻詞，翌年以薦舉赴試，未中，晚年僑居揚州賣畫。金農博學多才，年五十始作畫，並以之為業。所作之畫，皆參以金石筆意，自具古樸蒼拙之意趣；以梅竹及山水人物雜畫見長。於書法上自創「漆書」書體。為「揚州八怪」之一。
Jin Nong(1687–1763)was a native of Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. After the prestigious Boxue hongci(Erudite Literatus Examination)had been launched in 1735, he was recommended for this honour in the following year but was unsuccessful. He finally settled in Yangzhou and sold paintings to support himself. He was an accomplished scholar and he started to paint at the age of fifty. He assimilated the calligraphic styles of the inscriptions of ancient bronzes and stone stelae into his pictorial works imbuing them with a sense of archaic simplicity and austere bluntness. Apart from being noted for painting a variety of subjects ranging from landscapes and figures to plum blossoms and bamboo, he also invented a new calligraphic style known as qishu(lacquer script). He was also a prolific writer. He was a member of the "Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou". ■資料：香港藝術館
