梁秀中・採茶｜隱身到現身・國立歷史博物館

梁秀中（b.1934），廣東順德人，生於南京。畫家梁中銘之女，幼承家學，專攻水墨人物、花鳥及山水，寓現代精神。1948年遷臺，畢業於臺灣省立師範大學藝術系（今國立臺灣師範大學美術學系），其後留校任教升至教授，1986年任該校藝術學院首任女性院長。歷次應邀參加全國美展。曾赴美進修、兩度赴菲講學，多次赴歐美日韓等地考察美術教育及國際學術會議。曾任本館美術審議委員、文物清點委員會委員、美術文物評鑑委員。1986年應本館之邀繪製巨幅水墨集體創作《八年抗戰史畫》，為當時參與書畫名家中的唯一女性。

Liang Shiow-chung (b. 1934), a native of Shunde, Guangdong, was born in Nanjing. As the daughter of the renowned painter Liang Chung-ming, she trained under her father from an early age, later specializing in ink paintings of figures, flowers and birds, and landscapes—infusing these traditional genres with a modern sensibility. She moved to Taiwan in 1948 and graduated from the Department of Art at Taiwan Provincial Normal University (now the Department of Fine Arts, National Taiwan Normal University). She remained at the university to teach, eventually rising to professor, and in 1986 became the first female dean of its College of Arts. Liang has been regularly invited to participate in the National Fine Arts Exhibition. Her career also includes advanced study in the United States, two guest lectureships in the Philippines, and extensive international travel across Europe, the United States, Japan, and Korea for art education research and academic conferences. She has served on multiple advisory and evaluation committees for the NMH, including fine arts review, collections inventory, and artwork appraisal. In 1986, invited by the NMH, she contributed to the monumental collaborative ink painting Pictorial History of the Eight-Year War of Resistance Against Japan, standing out as the sole female master among the participating artists and calligraphers.

《採茶》，為梁秀中1979年水墨設色紙本作品。描繪臺灣北部一處茶園採茶景象，題材清新可觀。畫面以近大遠小的透視原則，以及前飽和後朦朧的遠近法帶出空間縱深。前景處以專注採擷嫩茶的採茶女為主體，中景處另兩名採茶女正低頭忙碌，最遠處是淡淡的山景。女子們皆穿戴著斗笠、頭巾及袖套從事勞動，表情恬然、動作從容，盡顯古典嫻靜之美。款：採茶。己未年梁秀中寫。印：賞心。梁。秀中。愛我中華。

Tea Picking is an ink and color on paper painting by Liang Shiow-chung in 1979. Depicting a tea plantation in northern Taiwan, the painting offers a fresh and engaging vision of rural life. Spatial depth is skillfully rendered through perspective, as vibrant foreground details give way to a soft, misty distance. The foreground focuses on a tea picker engrossed in plucking tender leaves, complemented by two women busily working in the middle ground, set against faint mountain silhouettes in the far background. Dressed in traditional conical hats, headscarves, and arm sleeves, their serene expressions and measured movements embody a timeless, classic grace.
