註：大千先生去國，移家南美後，經常往返美、歐、亞間，風塵僕僕，訪友探舊、籌辦展覽、搜求名迹，以至訂製畫具，在紐約之一應事務，多委付簡文舒處理。從師生互通信札中，無論身處香港、台北、東京、巴黎，大千旅途中，經常指示簡氏代辦諸般事務，不少涉及所藏古書畫出讓，她亦奔走其事，可見信任有加。大千亦時有詢及其藝事進展，屢贈作品，兼示畫法。本幅取日本製絹卡為材，圖中見白頭鳥棲於粗幹，旁綴扶疏竹影，以細筆狀白頭，長喙利目，體態豐腴，毛色潤澤，亟見神采。畫上未署年款，以筆墨精細處，兼鈐「張大千長年大吉又日利」印，可推為五十年代中期之作。

簡文舒舊藏張大千畫 （編號1296-1299）

「門人簡文舒，從學幾二十年，獨能得予神意，每有所作，見者驚詫，翠佩紅妝，以為江妃踏波而出。居士掀髯微笑曰，吾道有傳人也。」── 張大千

簡文舒（1926-2010），廣東番禺人，出生於香港，乃著名書法篆刻家簡經綸七女。幼聰慧，九歲即在滬舉行畫展。簡氏府中座上客者，多文化藝術界知名之士，她得此良機，多承便請益，大千先生與她尤為投緣，四十年代中期收為弟子。
一九四九年，簡氏赴紐約學習西畫，亦曾留學巴黎。五二年與其同學蘇保羅🌟（Paul Schwar꧃tz）結縭。在美國生活數十年間，創作不綴，多次舉行畫展，作品為各大美術館及文化機構收藏。曾獲美國藝術學院院士及英國藝術學院院士榮銜，並得美國國家藝術會頒贈「終生成就榮譽獎牌」。
