Catalog summary
Fine Pu Ru Works from Hua Family Collection (Lots 679-682)<br>台灣華氏家族珍藏溥儒佳作（編號679-682）<br><br>These four lots by Pu Ru come from the distinguished Hua family collection in Taiwan. The Huas, a prominent Fujian lineage, settled in Fuzhou during the tenure of ancestor Jin En, one of the famed "Five Elders of Rongcheng." His great-grandson Hua Zekai, while serving in the Railway Bureau, became acquainted with Pu Ru through a colleague, Zhang Zongyao. This connection led to the acquisition of several fine works, including a rare Shou (longevity) character dedicated to the Hua family matriarch, Madam Wu.<br><br>本輯四件溥儒，皆出自台灣華氏家族珍藏。華氏源自無錫望族，祖輩晉恩公，受任福建浦下關鹽大使，遂定居福州，當時人尊為「榕城五老」之一。晉恩公曾孫華澤鈐奉祖母吳太夫人到台，於任職鐵路局期間，因同事友好章宗堯之故，得識心畬先生，由此因緣，得藏數件先生佳作。其中書贈華氏祖母吳太夫人之「壽」字，尤為難得。 PU RU (1896-1963) Longevity Ink on gold-flecked paper, framed Signed Pu Ru, with a dedication and two artist's seals 65 x 38.5cm (25⅝ x 15⅙in)
