"Chongyang Seat on the Fu Bai Ju"
Don Bai Juyi (772-846)
Full of flowers and chrysanthemums golden yellow,
There are lone bushes that look like frost.
It is also like the song and banquet of this dynasty,
The bald man enters the juvenile field.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="7" > brief analysis</h1>
Bai Juyi (772-846), also spelled Lotte, was a resident of Xiangshan in his later years. His ancestral home was Taiyuan (present-day Shanxi), and he later moved to Lower Deng Yi (present-day Weinan County, Shaanxi). In the sixteenth year (800) of Emperor Dezong of Tang's reign, he was appointed secretary of the provincial school secretary.
Emperor Xianzong of Tang served as Zuo Shiyi and Zuo Zanshan during his reign. In literature, he and Yuan Shu were both advocates and backbones of the Xinlefu Movement, advocating that "articles are written for the times, and poetry is written for the sake of things", and opposing works that "mock the wind and snow, make flowers and plants" and have no sustenance. The language of his poems is popular, in-depth and simple, easy and natural, and does not show traces of carving.
His poems portray characters, with distinct images, moving people with emotion, and have high artistic attainments. This is a lyric poem written by Bai Juyi at the Feast of the Chongyang Festival.
The first two sentences, "The garden is full of flowers and chrysanthemums are golden, and there are lonely bushes that look like frost", describing the beautiful season when chrysanthemums are in full bloom. While drinking and admiring the flowers, the poet accidentally found a cluster of white flowers in the golden flowers of the garden, implying that the poet himself was old.
The last two sentences, "It is still like the song and banquet of the present dynasty, and the white-headed man enters the juvenile field", although he is old, he is still willing to drink with the younger generation and spend the Chongyang Festival together. It expresses the poet's pleasant state of mind and the heart of the master.
Bai Juyi's official fortunes have been sloppy all his life, and due to political disagreements, he has been repeatedly ostracized and has been depressed for a long time. The poem of Chongyang Festival sweeps away the haze in the heart and reproduces the frank and simple nature in the poet's heart. The language of the whole poem is simple, easy to understand, simple and innocent.

This "Autumn Chrysanthemum Red Leaf Map" is a masterpiece of Mr. Wang Xuetao's 70 generations of anonymous paintings.
The composition of this painting is concise, the pen and ink are beautiful and bold, the colors are calm and gorgeous, and the flowers and birds are vivid, showing the profound painting skills of Master Xuetao. The chrysanthemums in the picture are lush and leafy, dense but not chaotic, sparse but not simple, and between the branches, leaves and flowers, they are staggered, graceful and colorful, and full of vitality.
A bouquet of autumn leaves slopes on the upper right side of the painting, contrasting with the white chrysanthemums below the group, creating a sharp color contrast, adding to the beauty of the picture. It gives people a feeling that it is not like spring light than spring light. The red leaves are colored, bright and vulgar, and each leaf has its own unique pen and ink treatment method, reverse, positive, and sideways, which are different, and the curve is as wonderful as possible, occupying the meaning of natural frankness.
An emerald green pink eye, in the branches of the red leaves, fluttering wings, the look is extremely vivid, the master uses the pen of the gods, the scenery in the painting, vividly expressed, the pen and ink is not much, but fine. The color is not in the bright, but in the elegant. Birds and flowers seem to float from the painting. It's a delight to watch. Bai Juyi once had a poem: "Relying on the rejuvenation of Qingqing, seducing the infinite love of the spring wind." White snowflakes fluttered in the air, and green strips were weaker than warblers. ”
Although it depicts the scenery of spring, Mr. Xuetao's "White Chrysanthemum Red Leaf Map" also contains the poetic rhyme of "white snowflakes fluttering in the air, and green silk strips are weaker than warblers". The thousand-year-old charm is the unique artistic charm of traditional Chinese flower and bird painting.
In the 1970s, when Master Xuetao was called to paint. He has long been the president of the Beijing Academy of Painting and a well-known painter at home and abroad.
This meticulous composition was made by Master Xuetao when he was 70 years old. The pen and ink are skillful and fascinating. Coupled with a patriotic heart, the picture is particularly elegant and elegant. Being able to paint on the ancient silk of the palace was a rare opportunity in his life, and it was only in that era that the upper genius gave him this opportunity.
Therefore, this work is not only a historical witness of a special era, but also a rare fine work of Master Xuetao's ancient silk paintings in the palace collection, which has extremely important historical cultural relics value and artistic treasure value.
