Lot Essay

NOTE:
The collector’s seals belonged to Lu Danlin (1896-1972), a native of Sanshui, Guangdong province, and master of the Redwood Studio. Lu was a member of the Chinese United League and later left for Shanghai to develop his career. He joined the South Society, a famous poetry organization, and worked as a publication editor there. Lu influenced the art and literature circle significantly and was considered the “best editor” in Mainland, Hong Kong and Macau in the 1930s and 1940s.
