         M r du Gardin worked in the wine and cosmetic
         business in China in the 1940s and was captivated
         by the Chinese art and culture. During his stay in
         China, he would attend salons hosted by the French
         compatriots and acquired many Chinese paintings
         by artists such as Huang Binhong (1864-1955), Qi
         Baishi (1863-1957), Fu Baoshi (1904-1965) or Lin
         Fengmian (1900-1991). In each of the paintings, he
         would  write on the mounting or the back to record
         the provenance.

         杜嘉爾丹先生於1940年代在華經營洋酒和化妝品貿易,
         因而熱愛上中國藝術文化。在華期間經常參加法國同仁舉
         行的沙龍聚會,結識諸多中國藝術家並收集了一批優秀的
         美術作品,其中包括黃賓虹、齊白石、傅抱石、林風眠等
         藝術家。杜嘉爾丹在每件作品畫背或裱邊用法語記錄準
         確來源。
