Inscription

Top poem: My gaze stretches as far as the mountains and seas across fifty continents, yet I've never sought honors in my life. Who will appreciate my skill in enduring hardships? I choose to wander like a phoenix in the sky. Bottom poem: My body carries me across thousands of miles, yet I refuse to be swayed by trivial matters. I cannot distinguish between dust and earth, for the countless scrolls of ink and color are like lotus flowers.

目尽关山五十洲,自猎平生耻封侯。素练风霜因谁许,却从九天凤凰游。 一身万里负天涯,半念不教小胡麻。去来莫辨尘与土,万卷丹青是莲花。

Description

Two eagles perch on a pale ochre rock among bamboo, one dark, one rust-colored, with a yellow paper panel of large running-script verse above. The paired birds and the poem’s refusal of official rank turn a traditional eagle painting into a statement of independent spirit. One duplicate photograph in the source folder was omitted.
