Speaking of Zhang Fei, a famous general of the Shu Han Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period, the calligrapher and painter could not help but think of some post-break remarks, such as: Zhang Fei eats bean sprouts - a piece of cake; Zhang Fei wears a needle - big eyes and small eyes; Zhang Fei eats a top - iron heart; Zhang Fei embroidery - thick and thin; Zhang Fei demolishes the bridge - there is courage and no strategy; Zhang Fei collects debts - the momentum is fierce; Zhang Fei goes into battle - rampage...
I have to say that there are really a lot of words about Zhang Fei after the break. So what is Zhang Fei's real image?
In traditional opera, he is always a butterfly face, five big and three thick, very happy and very cute; in the Novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" by Ming ren Luo Guanzhong, Zhang Fei's image is "his human body is eight feet long, the leopard head is ringed with eyes, the swallow jaw and tiger whiskers, the sound is like a huge thunder, and the momentum is like a galloping horse", just like a Zhao Wufu. Even the image of Zhang Fei in modern TV dramas is the same. At the same time, Zhang Fei is also the spokesman of Mang Han, and if anyone loves to be impulsive and not careful in real life, he will be called "Mang Zhang Fei".
However, according to historians, Zhang Fei is not a "big old man", and the historical Zhang Fei is not only a warrior with unstoppable courage during the Three Kingdoms period, but also an artistic Confucian general.
According to the Ming Dynasty Zhuo Erchang's "Interpretation of the Painting Essence", Zhang Fei is familiar with calligraphy and painting, likes to paint beautiful people in painting, and is good at cursive calligraphy. Among them, it is recorded in the "General Record of Dan Lead" that Fuling has a Diao Dou inscription, and the inscription is written by Zhang Fei. The knife worn by Zhang Fei and the words on the immediate inscription were also inscribed by Zhang Fei himself.
In the Yuan Dynasty, Wu Zhen's "Zhang Yide Ancestral Hall" poem was written in the clouds: "Guan Hou satirized the Zuo clan, and the car rode more Gongshu." Although the culture and martial arts are different, the ancients tasted more than enough. The horizontal spear thinks of the wrist strength, and the image is afraid and difficult. This means that Zhong Xuan of the State of Wei and the Imperial Elephant of the State of Wu are probably difficult to achieve in calligraphy than Zhang Fei. So is his calligraphy really that powerful?
There is an inscription circulating in history, named "Zhang Fei Li Ma Ming", which is said to have been carved by Zhang Fei himself.
In the twentieth year of Jian'an (215), after Zhang Fei defeated Zhang Gao, he rode on The Wine Xing and chiseled two lines of letters on the stone wall of Mount Eight Peng with a spear: "General Han flew, led the elite to 10,000 people, and the first of the great thieves, Zhang Gao, was in Ba Mao, and immediately le ming." That is, the "Eight Mo Cliffs" recited by later generations, also known as "Zhang Fei Li Ming". At present, the inscription is no longer available, and only the extension of the Qing Guangxu can be seen.
Looking closely at the text of the inscription, the strokes are plump and vigorous, the momentum is strong and dignified, the knot is simple and solid, and the center is like a cone painting sand, which is very exquisite. I have to lament the high level of calligraphy of Yue Fei, who is a military general.
In fact, there are many calligraphers in the mainland, everyone has been a military general. From Li Si of the Qin Dynasty, to Wang Xizhi, the right general of the Jin Dynasty, Yan Zhenqing, the founding duke of Lu County in the Tang Dynasty, to Yue Fei, the famous anti-Jin general of the Southern Song Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang, the famous anti-Yuan minister, and Lin Zexu, the national hero who sold cigarettes in Humen, all of them were great generals who shook the ancient and modern worlds, and their calligraphy was all praised by future generations. The masculine beauty that is full of rigidity, ruggedness and heroism is vividly exerted in calligraphy.
Unfortunately, this inscription is only rumored to be Zhang Fei's true handwriting, and the facts are not verified, including Zhang Fei will also write poetry, it is rumored that when he traveled quickly to the real mountains, he wrote "Travels in Many Mountains" from the feeling. Because the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" mentions the Shu people who are good at calligraphy and painting, only one Zhuge Zhan. Since then, zhang fei has not been seen in the various calligraphy and painting bibliographies of various kinds of calligraphy and paintings from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, whose importance is found in the "Four Libraries of the Whole Book". The authentic works of the Fa-ti and paintings that have been handed down to the world are also rare and Zhang Fei have not yet been discovered.
Therefore, Cai Dongzhou pointed out that all kinds of so-called Zhang Fei's works are all fake works of the Ming Dynasty. Do you think this calligraphy is Zhang Fei's original? Say what you have to say in the comments section!
