介绍（中）	唐隐是一位极具天赋的学者和画家，在1499年卷入首都的考试丑闻后，他失去了所有正式职业的机会。他以绘画和写诗为生，过着放荡学者的生活，在贫困中死去。灿烂的月亮女神嫦娥，嫦娥是唐寅在官考中破灭的梦想，女神左手的决明子枝象征着唐寅在官考中破灭的梦想。（"cassia"[gui]这个词是"贵族"这个词的双关语[也发音为gui]。唐音的诗，大胆的书法，写着：她很久以前是月宫的居民，凤凰和仙鹤聚集，绣着旗帜飘扬着天上的芬芳。嫦娥爱上了天才学者，为他折断了决明子树最顶端的树枝。作为苏州臭名昭著的娱乐区的常客，唐音可能为他最喜欢的伴侣画了这个迷人的人物，也许是一幅肖像，他将她视为注定要遭受致命痛苦的女神。他签名旁边的长方形印章自豪地宣告了艺术家在世俗上的成功时刻，这发生在 1498 年："在南京 [省考] 中排名第一。
介绍（英）	A supremely gifted scholar and painter, Tang Yin forfeited all chances of an official career after being involved in an examination scandal in the capital in 1499. Turning to painting and writing poetry for a living, he led the life of a dissolute scholar and died in poverty. The brilliantly executed Moon Goddess, Chang E is a poignant reminder of Tang Yin's dashed dreams for success in the official examinations, symbolized by the cassia branch in the goddess's left hand. (The word for "cassia" [gui] is a pun on the word for "nobility" [also pronounced gui].) Tang Yin's poem, in bold calligraphy, reads: She was long ago a resident of the Moon Palace, Where phoenixes and cranes gathered and embroidered banners fluttered in heavenly fragrance. Chang E, in love with the gifted scholar, Breaks off [for him] the topmost branch of the cassia tree. A frequent visitor to Suzhou's notorious pleasure quarter, Tang Yin may have painted this glamorous figure, a portrait perhaps, for a favorite companion, whom he regarded as a goddess condemned to mortal suffering. A rectangular seal next to his signature proudly proclaims the artist's moment of worldly success, which occurred in 1498: "Placed First [in the] Nanjing [Provincial Examination]."
