关于此画 · About the work
钱选，吴兴人，与赵孟頫同列「吴兴八俊」，入元不仕，以画自遣。此幅海棠折枝，花白如雪；两鸟一栖枝俯视、一在下枝仰望，枝梢垂一蜘蛛。花瓣用粉白薄染，鸟羽细笔勾梳，设色清透，是宋末元初花鸟一路。
Qian Xuan refused office after the Song fell and painted for his own pleasure. Here a flowering crab-apple branch fills the sheet: two birds, one perched and looking down, one below looking up, and a spider hanging from a twig. Petals are washed in thin white, plumage combed with fine lines — the refined flower-and-bird manner of the Song-Yuan transition.

The file is the museum’s own JPEG at roughly 3400 pixels, with no cropping, colour grading or watermark added; mounts, labels and collectors’ seals are left as they are. The English title is the museum’s; the Chinese title is ours, made from the picture and the painter’s biography, and is not an official record. We make no independent attribution claim — the catalogue data is the museum’s.
