《石渠寶笈三編》,見於《秘殿珠林石渠寶笈合編》,(北京:北京出版社),卷10,頁2023

注:

周之冕,字服卿,號少谷,籍貫不詳,活耀於吳門地區。專擅花鳥,於家中飼養禽鳥以求型態及神韻,自吳門中創新,兼工帶寫,設色鮮妍,自成一家,影響深遠。


本幅作於辛丑(1601),周氏時八十餘歲,為晚年精筆,花卉石鳥以雙鉤細筆寫成,工緻典雅,寫實清新,枝葉以沒骨繪之,揮灑恣肆,寫意自在,所謂「鉤花點葉」,莫不如此。王世貞曾云:「勝國以來寫花草者無如吾吳郡,而吳郡自沈啟南之後無如陳道復、陸叔平,然道復妙而不真,叔平真而不妙,周之冕能兼撮二子之長」,雖略有抑彼揚此之意,但其點評周之冕創新的畫法,對於「妙」、「真」之間的平衡,卻為歷代藝術史學家所認可及讚賞
