Many of the exquisite works, particularly those after the Yüan period, bear inscriptions, usually of poetic nature, relating to the subjects depicted. Many of the celebrated artists were not professional painters, but men of letters, some of them holding high governmental offices. "One acquainted with the Chinese language knows that a literal rendering of a Chinese composition into English is well-nigh impossible because of the frequent allusions to classical literature and also because of the hidden or double meanings in some phrases. Consequently, the English versions which are incorporated in the descriptions are free interpretations. The transcriptions of the original inscriptions are to be found in the catalogue in Chinese accompanying the portfolio." (Tomita).
