Specialist note
The current lot is similar in size, composition and date to another Frogs painting that Yuan Hongshu donated to the Chinese University of Hong Kong (See The Sanbuyi Tang Collection of Masterworks by Ting Yin Yung published by the Chinese University of Hong Kong, 1998, pl. 119). As a token of their friendship, Ding Yanyong dedicated the current lot to Yuan, and in turn, he retained this painting in his collection for a long time.
