介绍（中）	赵孟坚，宋人，文人书法家，擅长画水仙花，把水仙花养到了文人雅士心目中的兰花水平。水仙花在中国被称为"水女神"或"站在波浪之上的女神"。芳香的花朵与湘江的两位女神联系在一起，进而与《离骚》的作者屈原（公元前343-277年）联系在一起。屈原是楚国的忠臣，由于没有提醒他的王子国家即将面临的危险，他淹死在了湘江的一条支流中在蒙古征服后附在卷轴上的一首诗中，忠于宋的仇元（1247年至1327年后）将赵的自恋描述为在一片被摧毁的土地上生活的唯一景象：闪亮的铜盘被掀翻，仙女的露水溢出<明亮的玉杯被打碎了，像碎珊瑚<我可怜水仙不是兰花<他至少认识楚国那位冷静的大臣。
介绍（英）	Zhao Mengjian, a member of the Song imperial family and an accomplished scholar and calligrapher, specialized in painting narcissi and raised the flower to the level of the orchid in the esteem of scholars. Offering the promise of spring, the narcissus is known in Chinese as the "water goddess" (shuixian) or the "goddess who stands above the waves" (lingbo xianzi). The fragrant blossoms are associated with the two goddesses of the Xiang River and, by extension, with Qu Yuan (343–277 b.c.), author of Li Sao (On Encountering Sorrow). Qu Yuan, a loyal minister of the state of Chu, drowned himself in a tributary of the Xiang River after failing to alert his prince of the imminent danger threatening the state. In a poem appended to the scroll after the Mongol conquest, the Song loyalist Qiu Yuan (1247–after 1327) describes Zhao's narcissi as the only vision of life in an otherwise devastated land: The shiny bronze dish is upset, and the immortals' dew spilled; The bright jade cup is smashed, like broken coral. I pity the narcissus for not being the orchid. Which at least had known the sober minister from Chu.
