趙浩公 Zhao Haogong
生平 Biography
趙浩公 (1882-1946)，名浩，號石佛，1882年生於廣東台山。少時學藝於畫肆，十七歲隨王竹虛習畫。趙氏以裱畫為業， 因而見盡古今名作，擅臨摹。喜作宋院體花鳥，山水宗石濤，並工馬遠；書法則效法宋徽宗的瘦金體和王文治的行書，亦擅篆刻。
1923年趙氏與黃般若、潘致中、 黃少梅、盧振寰等八人在廣州 組成「癸亥合作畫社」，並與盧振寰共設「山南畫室」授徒。「癸亥合作畫社」後來擴展成為「國畫研究會」。

At the age of seventeen, he became an apprentice to Wang Zhuxu who taught him painting as well as the skill of mounting and conservation. He made a living from mounting paintings, through which he had opportunities to see and imitate many ancient works. As a painter, he was famous for his flower-and-bird paintings in the style of the Song Academy. His landscape integrated the merits of both Shitao and Ma Yuan.
