LOTS 86-87 Description of paintings, including that of Views of Aberdeen,
PROPERTY FROM A NEW YORK PRIVATE COLLECTION 紐約私人珍藏 received from the artist.

These two paintings were acquired when an American fashion designer met Lu Shoukun on 畫家本人對其作品的解讀，其中包括對《鴨巴甸風景》的解讀。
December 7, 1965 at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong, after she had become interested in his
painting style. At this meeting, the artist wrote out his interpretation of each painting, shown
below, and commented that they had been exhibited at the Hong Kong art gallery in the City
Hall building. These paintings have remained since then in the designer’s family.

這兩幅畫是一位喜愛呂壽琨繪畫風格的美國設計師於1965年12月在香港半島酒店與呂壽琨先生會面
時所得。這次會面，呂壽琨先生寫下了自己對每幅畫的解釋。（如下圖所示），並評論說，這些畫曾展
於香港大會堂。這兩幅畫作此後一直被這位設計師及其家族收藏。
