LOT NOTES:


Lu Xiaoman (pinyin: Lu Xiaoman; September 1903-April 1965) was a beloved cultural figure in 20th century Chinese history. She was given the name of Mei (eyebrow, a metaphor for feminine beauty in Chinese), but later changed her name to Xiaoman. Although she was well known for her very passionate and public relationship with Xu Zhimo, she was a celebrated painter, writer, singer, and actor. She studied under painters such as Liu Haisu, Chen Banding, and He Tianjian. As an artist, she specialized in flowers, birds, and light ink landscapes (danmo shanshui) on long Chinese scrolls. She was also known to write poetry, prose, and fiction, but her writings were never published. Nevertheless, her appreciation for poetry inspired her to create a series of ink paintings in honor of the Tang poet Du Fu, which are displayed at his commemorative historical site. Lu Xiaoman was also a singer, and she debuted on stage after receiving training in the renowned Peking Opera (Jingju). She quickly gained attention from bachelors of wealthy, famous families after her first performance, which led to her rise in fame. In the 1950's and 60's, she worked as a paid artist at the Shanghai Academy of Chinese Painting, but only to produce works for the academy. Even so, she was able to create and successfully sell paintings at Duoyun Zhai apart from her obligations to the academy. Lu was born in Shanghai in 1903 and raised in Changzhou, Jiangsu province.She was educated in Beijing Women's Normal Primary when she was 7 years old. She attended Beijing Girls' Junior High at the age of 9 and finished at 14. She later attended Beijing Sacred Heart School. She also studied in France and was fluent in English and French by the age of 18. Chen Yi, the mayor of Shanghai, gave her a position in the Shanghai Institute of Culture and History after learning that she had remained in the city after the establishment of the People's Republic in 1949.She was employed by Gu Weijun, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Northern Government, as a Trade Interpreter. In 1922, she married Wang Geng but they divorced soon after their marriage. After that, she was in a relationship with Xu Zhimo, which caused a great stir as two divorcees getting married was considered radical even among China's progressives.(citation needed) In 1931, Xu died in a plane crash.
