黎雄才 暮雲圖
設色紙本 立軸
高劍父、易大厂題跋
題識:
〈高〉暮雲圖為雄才弟得意之作。又文老弟最所欣賞,屬為題識。廿五年七月時客斑園。劍父。
〈易〉荒漠奇巒至可欣,風瀟瀟已史前文。累伊孱侣怱狂甚,俛盡千尋囂不聞。又文我兄向西風澹陽中招我一巵,出示劍老門士西江黎青年雄才此作暮雲桀構,極起予漭蒼之思。世有指此謂為外采者,吾將屏之也,因詩並之。丙秋,大厂居士孺公。
鈐印:〈高〉「高」押、「劍父之印」、「游藝中原」。
〈易〉「重月」。
藏印:「簡氏斑園藏真」。

註:本幅出自簡氏「斑園」舊藏。「斑園主人」簡又文（1896-1976）,廣東新會人。早歲畢業於廣州嶺南學堂,赴美深造。返國後先任投身教育界及政界。曾從戎,後轉事文化工作,先後創辦多份雜誌。好與文藝界交往,尤嗜書畫,以廣東歷代書畫作品為蒐集目標。他晚年將畢生搜集的廣東書畫珍藏轉讓香港中文大學文物館。
他推崇劍父倡議之「新國畫運動」,彼此相知頗深,過從密切,他得劍父書畫逾百,特治「斑園供奉劍父百品之一」藏印作記。基此淵源,二高門下所出不少精品亦入其收藏中。
黎雄才早慧,少有畫名,蒙劍父賞識,召至春睡畫院深造,並資助東渡日本研習日本畫。本幅未署款,從風格及高氏題跋年份,可推斷乃黎氏學成返國後至一九三六年夏之間所寫。畫中高崖飛瀑,水氣騰蒸,山壑一片濛瀧,前方坡翠樹郁,峭拔而罕人迹,僅雙燕倏飛其間,甚得逍遙無拘意。敷彩講究,渲染細緻,色彩變化幽微中強調氤氳濕潤的氛圍,流露日本畫風影響痕迹,但面貌與劍父較接近,而氣象清新,技法掌握成熟,雖出早年之筆,融匯貫通而成己貌已見端倪,洵為佳構。
一九三六年,高氏正在南京中央大學教授任上,往還京滬辦「高劍父師生畫展」。按〈大日報〉一九三六年六月末出版該展覽之後記,文曰「如黎雄才碧落寺、暮雲……等作」,可推知本幅屬展品之一。畫上具高劍父長題於同年七月,即展後高氏盤桓簡氏「斑園」寓所期間,時藝界人士如易孺多有聚叙,簡氏遂出己藏〈暮雲圖〉邀兩家題跋,為之激賞。同月七日,簡氏藏另幅黎雄才〈風雨征途〉同獲高劍父與易氏題跋,其扶掖嶺南派新晉畫家之心,可見一斑。
