NOTE:
The three collector’s seals belonged to Cai Chensheng, a renowned collector during the Republic era. Deeply passionate about the calligraphy of Shen Zengzhi, he extensively studied and authenticated Shen’s calligraphy, and thus named his studio “Baomei Pavilion”. His collection of Shen Zengzhi’s calligraphy is widely recognized as exemplary in authenticity, refinement, and originality, serving as a benchmark for appraising Shen’s works.
