And Ling Yun is still humble
Remembering Mr. Pan
"Ink Bamboo" by Pan Zhonglan
Pan Zhonglan (1909-2001) successively served as the vice president of the Fuzhou Academy of Painting, a member of the Seal Engraving Art Committee of the China Book Association, a member of the Xiling Printing Society, and a national first-class artist. He is a famous calligrapher, painter, seal engraver, poet, and has a deep artistic achievement in oracle bone calligraphy. In 2001, he was awarded the first most authoritative professional academic award in the Chinese calligraphy industry co-sponsored by the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the China Book Association - the "First Chinese Calligraphy Lanting Lifetime Achievement Award" (at that time, only two people in the country won this honor, and the other winner was Mr. Qi Gong), and the Chinese Calligraphers Association called Mr. Pan Zhonglan "the dominant old calligrapher, representing the highest level of Chinese calligraphy today, worthy of the calligraphy of the mainland." ”
However, Mr. Pan, as a calligraphy master, celebrity, and elder, is awe-inspiring on the other side, but he is very humble and amiable.
I met Pan Lao in the late 1970s. At that time, the Fuzhou Painting Institute was located in the backyard of the Heavenly Emperor's Palace on the top of the hill, and the painters gathered every weekend, or worked, held meetings, or watched exhibitions, created, and tasted tea. I often went to Mr. Shen Xichun's studio to make tea on weekends, met Mr. Shen to go to the painting institute, and occasionally accompanied him up the mountain, and met Mr. Pan Zhonglan through Mr. Shen's introduction.
As the saying goes, once born twice cooked. After meeting with Elder Pan more often, I learned that he was a highly respected oracle bone researcher, and his calligraphy and painting, especially the art of oracle bone calligraphy and seal engraving, were world-famous. In 1982, I wanted to send my work to the "Celebrating August 1st Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition", and after the work was completed, I found that there was no suitable seal to cover, so I thought of Mr. Pan Zhonglan. Considering that he was only a little familiar with Pan Lao, he did not dare to scratch it hastily. I hurried to Mr. Shen Xichun's place and asked Elder Shen to write a note, and then I came to the bank of the Ancient Jindou Bridge in Wenrufang, Fuzhou, and met Mr. Pan Zhonglan. After I handed over Mr. Shen Xichun's note and explained the situation to Elder Pan, Elder Pan smiled and said, "We are 'familiar' well, there is no need to ask Elder Shen to write an introduction." Elder Pan's few words made my nervous psychology relax suddenly, so I handed over a pair of stone seals bought with only ten yuan, while saying that the pocket was shy, the stone was not good, and asked Elder Pan for forgiveness. Elder Pan smiled and said it didn't matter, and asked me to come and get it in two days. Now that Elder Pan has passed away, whenever he takes out these two seals (pictured) and uses them, his warm and kind voice and smile flash in front of his eyes.
Pan Lord Lan carved
In 1987, the "Beijing-Shanghai-Rong, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao Poetry Calligraphy and Painting Printing And Famous Artists Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition" (hereinafter referred to as the Straits Pen Association) jointly organized by the Voice of the Straits Radio Station, the Fujian Provincial Economic and Cultural Exchange Center and the Fujian Provincial Foreign Investment Center was held in Fuzhou. As the representative of the organizer, I came forward to invite Mr. Pan Zhonglan to attend the meeting, and Pan Lao'er did not say a word, and immediately said that it was a matter of the country's major political affairs toward Taiwan and had an unshirkable responsibility. During the meeting, he often took the initiative to ask me about the theme of the day's creation, or chanted poems and painted, or sang harmony with foreign calligraphers and painters, and created a number of poems, paintings and calligraphy works for Taiwanese villagers, which won full applause. At this event, Elder Pan wrote a number of high-quality poems that missed the Taiwanese villagers and hoped for the early reunification of the country, many of which were created at home in the evening and brought to the venue the next day. Elder Pan's meticulous attitude in doing things is admirable.
In 1991, China Huayi Broadcasting Company was established in Fuzhou. When I submitted the official letter of solicitation to Pan Lao, Pan Lao inquired in detail about the company's functions, power, etc., expressed his support for the broadcast of Taiwan folks, and immediately drafted the inscription: "Promote cultural exchanges in the Straits and have an objective and positive pioneering spirit of dissemination - China Huayi Broadcasting Company Launch Commemoration", about me to pick up next week.
A week later, I flew back to Fuzhou from Guangzhou to collect works, went straight to Yangxia Xincun 46 from the airport, and went to Pan's hometown to pick up the works as promised. Elder Pan saw me with my luggage and asked me where I was going? I told the truth and presented the works of Guan Shanyue, Li Xiongcai and other famous artists brought back from Guangzhou to Elder Pan for a glance. Elder Pan read the works, and then casually turned over the commemorative album I had brought with me, and I saw elder Pan's serious reading, took the opportunity to smile and said: "Can you please ask Elder Pan to give me a few souvenirs?" Pan Er didn't say a word, immediately waved, and between the conversation and laughter, he drew a freehand ink bamboo (pictured) and inscribed it with the inscription "Ying Yi Brother Genus". I thanked him again and again, and Elder Pan said that we are such friends, we don't have to be polite.
Thirty years have passed. Opening this ink bamboo again, recalling the many contacts and exchanges with Pan Laojian when he was there, and revisiting Pan Lao's approachable, modest and enthusiastic elderly demeanor, I casually recited the ancients' poems of "there are festivals before they are unearthed, and there is still an open heart at the clouds", and pondered in my heart, this kind of poetry is both writing bamboo and gentleman, and the "humble heart" in it not only describes the hollow characteristics of bamboo, but also borrows a word of meaning, describing the arrogant and extremely modest character of people. Thinking of this, I wrote the title of this article, once again expressing my deep admiration for Mr. Pan's great artistic achievements.

Rare rain without bone in the mountains
Song Province gave the "Xishan Smoke and Rain Map" calligraphy and painting to enjoy
A generation of freehand flower and bird painting grandmaster Mr. Song Shengyu with the boneless method of landscape is also the level of the grandmaster! This is the common feeling of those who read this "Smoke and Rain Map of Streams and Mountains".
Song Shengyu (1909-1966) character Lian Qing, the owner of the red apricot, freehand flowers and birds, landscapes, characters and length, with "poetry, books, paintings" three famous at home and abroad. This work reveals that it not only has the relics of famous works such as Yuan Zhao Mengfu and Huang Gongwangzhi's "Water Village Map" and "Xishan Rain", but also introduces the old and new. The picture is far away from the mountains, the peaks rise and rise; the close-up view of crane Ting Tingzhu, flat boats; the left side of the slope stone jungle, winding path corridor. Vast water town, smoke and rain hazy, far and near, thick and ethereal. There is a poem as evidence: "There are rootless trees in the smoke, and there are many boneless mountains in the rain." This scene is not known to this lover, and I have been in the middle of it. "Poetic and picturesque, integrated.
Song Province gave a part of the "Smoke and Rain Map of Xishan Mountain"
Even rarer, this poem, book, and painting is extremely rare. When a painter completes his creation, he can write a poem and sign it, and those who add a title and then another one are proud of it. Song Province gave this painting to Chaoshan Province, so it is specially introduced by the poem "Parrot Island" of the famous poet and scholar Song Xiang, who is admired in the Qing Dynasty, "Parrot Island" in the Qing Dynasty: "Stop radix parrot island for two days, and the waves of the sky hit the river tower." Linfeng brings three laos of anger (drums), and the herbs are difficult to dispel a sadness. From ancient times, there is no way to achieve life, only now it is difficult not to bow down. Autumn tomb Mo tired of the village mash thin, where Cao Loess a cup. Song Xiang has "Red Apricot Mountain House Collection" and other works passed down, is there a relationship between its "Red Apricot Mountain House" and "Red Apricot Master"? To be tested.
Reading qibao again, Mr. Song Shengyu noted the "Modern Celebrity Book Forest", which is actually an excerpt of the "Great Lu Ding Ming": "Sui Xi, summon me alone, the four directions, yan I Qisun, the province first king, the people subject to the territory." Give Ru Yu a dagger, a robe..." Mr. Song's book is written by The Book of Dingming, the chapter is skillful, the penmanship is reversed, the bone strength is clumsy, and several special scribes are ashamed.
If this work is viewed as a landscape, it is a fine work of Mr. Song; if it is regarded as a flower and bird painter, it is a special work of Mr. Song; if it is viewed from the perspective of Mr. Song's "poetry, book, and painting", it will be fully displayed, which is very rare and precious.

The pen "Double Magic" is on a par with the name
Lin Shu's "Wang Lin's Sword Training Diagram" was read
I have long wanted to write about Lin Shu's paintings, but I have not been able to find an angle.
Recently, on the mobile phone accidentally brushed the fifth episode of the TV series "Bright Sword", which was once popular all over the country, when Chu Yunfei, the commander of the Jinsui Army, met with Li Yunlong, the commander of the Eighth Route Army, he showed off a pair of precious Browning male and female pistols to give the mother gun to Li Yunlong, but Li Yunlong chose the public gun and gave back the saber. Seeing this plot, my mind first flashed out of the Southern Dynasty "Ban Chao Biography" that does not have to be worth a city, as long as there are weapons to kill the enemy bravely. Then the "double gun" thought of Lin Shu's "double sword", "Wang Lin's Sword Training Diagram", and felt that this picture could be appreciated from the word "double".
First, let's look at Lin Shu's inscription poem in this painting:
Tangtang Martyrdom Shouyang City,
Tejin Shangshu Wang Ziheng;
Do not forget Liang Sheji until death,
Thousand autumns expand or equal name.
Lin Shu wrote this "Wang Lin Practice Sword Diagram" after reading the "Biography of Wang Lin". Wang Lin in the picture, dancing with cold and shining swords in the spring breeze of weeping willows, her eyes are shining, guarding and waiting to attack; her steps are light and eager to stab... While painting Wang Lin, Lin Shu suddenly remembered another hero who was martyred for the country like Wang Lin, Kuo Kuo, and only then did he write a poem in the inscription poem of Wang Lin and Kuo Kuo, a pair of "swordsmen" who were both martyred.
Wang Lin, also known as Wang Ziheng, was a famous general during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. According to the "Book of Northern Qi and the Biography of Wang Lin", Wang Lin broke Hou Jing's general Song Zixian during Hou Jing's rebellion, and his military merits were called first together with Song Gong. After Chen Baxian deposed Liang jianchen, Northern Qi made Wang Lin a general of the Hussars and ordered him to raise an army against The Southern Dynasty Chen. After the defeat of the Northern Qi lieutenant Hu Bing, the imperial court ordered Wang Lin to recruit troops at Shouyang, and the Southern Dynasty Chen Jinbing surrounded Shouyang City, drew water to flood the city and attacked day and night, Wang Lin and the besieging Chen soldiers killed from July to October, and finally ran out of ammunition, the city fell, and was captured by the enemy, just at the age of 48. Later, Northern Qi posthumously gave Wang Lin the title of Governor of the Fifteen Prefectures, Lu Shang Shushi, and the courtesy name of King Zhongwu.
Part of Lin Shu's "Wang Lin's Sword Training Diagram"
The expansion of the poem is the famous Mongol general At the end of the Yuan Dynasty. During the peasant revolt at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Kuoku led troops to suppress the Red Turban Army. Later, he became involved in the Yuan Ting party strife and warlord melee. He was once named the King of Henan and Zhongshu Zuo Cheng Xiang. In the 28th year of Zhengzheng (1368), the Ming Dynasty captured Dadu, and Expanded to assist Emperor Zhaozong of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in his efforts to restore the Dayuan Jiangshan, and in the second year of Xuanguang (1372), he broke the Ming army in northern Mobei. Because of his arrogance, he was praised by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Emperor, as a "strange man in the world".
After Lin Shu painted "Wang Lin's Sword Drawing", he gave the title of his work to the "Brother of Kuan Sun Shi", who was known as the "Father and Son Double Painter" (father: Hong Liang, Zi Kuan Weng; Son: Hong Yi, Zi Kuan Sun) in Fuzhou. The "Double Sword Diagram" was given to "Double Painter", which made me appreciate and read this and felt that I should talk about Lin Shu's "Double Magic"--translation and calligraphy and painting.
Lin Shu (1852-1924) was an outstanding writer, translator, calligrapher and painter in modern Chinese history. The original name of Qunyu, the character Qinnan, the number of Fear Lu, fear of Lu residents, do not sign Leng Hongsheng, Jian Zhuo Weng, Supplement Liu Weng, Chun Jue Zhai master and so on.
Lin Shu's "double magic" the first "magic" is also a "must" is that he does not understand foreign languages, but can translate foreign masterpieces. Relying solely on his collaboration with his friend Wang Shouchang and others, he has written about the works of dozens of writers from more than a dozen countries, including Britain, France, the United States, Belgium, Russia, Norway, Switzerland, Greece, Japan and Spain. In his lifetime, he translated more than 200 kinds of novels, which is rare in the modern Chinese translation circles, and is known as the "king of the translation circle" and the "titan of the translation world" in China. In addition to translating novels, Lin Shu also wrote "The Collected Works of Wei Lu", "Sequels", and "Three Collections"; his poetry collections include "Wei Lu Poems" and "Minzhong XinleFu"; his self-written novels "Records of Jinghua Bi Blood", "Towel Yang Qiu", "Unjust Sea Lingguang", "Jinling Qiu", etc.; ancient Literary research works include "Han LiuWen Research Method", "Chun Jue Zhai Papers", "Zuo Mengzhuang Essence Record", "Zuo Chuan Shu Hua" and so on.
Lin Shu's second "magic" is calligraphy and painting. The world knows that Lin Shu's achievements are in his "Lin translation novels", and his poems and paintings are all hidden by the translations. Lin Shu was also a calligrapher and literati painter, whose creations involved landscape painting, flower and bird painting, and figure painting, of which landscape painting was the best. When Lin Shu was young, he studied with the famous Fuzhou artist Chen Wentai and studied flowers, birds and landscapes. Chen Wentai was a disciple of Wang Zhizhou, a famous master of the "Zhao'an Painting School", so the flowers, birds and figures in the early days of Lin Shu absorbed the essence of the "Zhao'an Painting School". Lin Shu's landscape paintings, the early Lingxiu resemble Wen Zhengming, then thick and close to Dai Xi, and then dabbling in Shi Tao, with a dripping interest in thickness. Lin's landscape is good at landscape, paintings are often far away from the mountains such as Dai, white clouds piled up, near a few bushes of green bamboo, a few willows, painting the shadow of the bridge, the viewer wanders in the lake and mountains, suddenly feel relaxed and happy. It is said that in the 1920s, Lin Shu's paintings were so high that even Qi Baishi was incomparable.
Lin Shu, an outstanding cultural figure in modern cultural history who has a heart for hundreds of generations and looks at the world, has left us a rich cultural heritage. His "Lin Translation" series is still read today, his paintings and calligraphy have always been popular in the collecting world, and his artistic achievements have been recognized by the world a hundred years ago. Yan Fu, a modern Chinese Enlightenment thinker and translator, once wrote poems for Lin Shu's talents and achievements, praising Lin Shu as a "zuo hai deformed person".
