Liu Guangtang, former director of dalian modern museum, said: "This huge set of albums ... Its artistic value is so high that it can hardly be measured in money. ”
Red scholar Mr. Zhou Ruchang praised it as "a treasure to be enjoyed and a treasure." ”
After hearing about it, cultural relics institutions from all over the world also issued invitations, hoping to exhibit this set of "mysterious albums".
What amazes the world so much is the album "Qing Sun Wen's Complete Picture of the Dream of the Red Chamber".
After research, this set of paintings was painted by Sun Wen, a folk painter in the Qing Dynasty.
The old man painted from the age of 50 to the age of 86, a long 36 years, which took much more time than Cao Xueqin's "reading for ten years, adding and deleting five times" to create "Dream of the Red Chamber".
The old man burned out the last days of his life and finally became this amazing painting.
Amazing works,
At one point it was not taken seriously, lying in the warehouse for 30 years.
The album came out to amaze the world, but before that, it was not taken seriously.
The story begins in the late 1950s, when the Lushun Museum unearthed a number of heavyweight national treasures from Xinjiang, and soon after it was transferred to the Palace Museum in Beijing and the Shanghai Museum to enrich the collection.
As compensation, the two units also allocated a number of cultural relics to the Lushun Museum, and the Qing Dynasty Sun Wen's complete "Dream of the Red Chamber" album was listed.
In 1959, the album came to the Lushun Museum, but it did not attract everyone's attention. Soon it was locked in a warehouse...
It wasn't until thirty years later, during a process of cleaning up the warehouse, that the former curator Liu Guangtang was shocked to see this set of albums:
"When I first saw it, I was struck by the vivid storyline and meticulous painting techniques represented in the picture."
Take a look and instantly indulge in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber...
The album begins with a panoramic view of the Grand View Garden,
The scenery in the garden is unobstructed,
A layer of greenery and lush green weather.
Panoramic view of the Grand View Garden
Pavilions
Or Xuanjun, or Linglong, or Elegant, or Wenxu,
Staggered and hidden.
Zhen Nai is "a prosperous place of flowers and willows, a gentle and rich town".
The Grand View Garden test is only right on the forehead
Since then from the 1st time
"Zhen Shi's hidden dream psychic",
To the 120 times "Jia Yu Village attributed to the dream of the Red Chamber",
The main story of the whole "Dream of the Red Chamber" is depicted in turn.
Almost all the painting content is included in the picture:
There are pavilions, landscape figures,
There are flowers and plants, rare birds and animals,
There are also boats, cars, ghosts, gods, furniture...
There are more than 3700 people in various characters alone,
The facial expressions of the characters come to life,
Crown belt jewelry is exquisite and gorgeous,
The pleated skirt is smooth and flowing.
Especially the young women in the painting,
Crooked eyebrows, cherry small mouths,
Slim figure, long neck and shoulders,
It gives people a feeling of weakness and can't help the wind.
Sun Wen's plot, scenes and characters of the original work,
All have been carefully traded and summarized,
Each chapter is used for the plot
The number of frames varies.
Lin Daiyu abandoned her father and went to Kyoto
Some important episodes of the return,
Use two or more to represent;
Others look back,
Or one at a time, or several times.
In this way,
The picture has some emphasis, the primary and secondary are clear,
The plot is more subtle, condensed, and concentrated,
Fully highlight the focus and spirit of the original work,
Enhance the appeal of art.
There are 24 albums, of which 23 are extant.
Each has 10 paintings, for a total of 230 paintings.
The missing one is the one that is drawn
The plot of the 103rd to 108th episodes of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
The first 80 times and the last 40 times in the album have obvious differences in painting style, which is a deliberate arrangement of the author, in order to coincide with the situation of Cao Xueqin's work before the first 80 times and the last 40 times gao yan continued in the original "Dream of the Red Chamber".

The brushwork is delicate and meticulous.
He took folk traditions
Crimson, emerald green,
On this basis,
Blending characters into the environment,
Make the picture beautiful but not vulgar,
Eye-catching yet elegant.
While using traditional Chinese painting methods,
Sun Wen also borrowed from the focus perspective method of Western painting,
The expressiveness of the picture is further enhanced.
The activities of the characters in the painting are extremely rich,
There are marriages and funerals, worship of ancestors and worship of gods,
There are orders to help the birds and draw fists,
There are also stickers, fireworks, hanging lanterns, kite flying...
Vivid and interesting, full of life.
Once you enter the "Red Chamber", it is difficult to wake up from a dream,
When the curator Liu Guangtang eased up from the painting,
He was only interested in the album's creator Sun Wen
Intense curiosity arose.
The album is "rare", and the painter is nameless
"The 230 paintings in this album,
Each one is an art treasure.
In terms of painting skills alone,
Sun Wen can definitely be called a big person. ”
But strangely enough,
Such a master painter,
There is no fame in the history of Chinese painting.
In order to find out sun wen's life, Liu Guangtang also went to Sun Wen's hometown of Fengrun many times, as well as the National Library, the Palace Museum and other places to look for clues, but he could not find any records about Sun Wen.
"Folk painting has often been despised in mainland history for many reasons. In the late Qing Dynasty, the vast majority of folk painters lived at the bottom of society, and even a master of the art world such as Sun Wen may not be able to get the attention that society deserves. ”
"Qing Sun Wen's Complete Picture of the Dream of the Red Chamber" is the only known surviving work of Sun Wen. In 1989, it was rated as a first-class cultural relic.
The famous red scholar Zhou Ruchang commented that it was a "treasure of the Red Chamber".
Li Shaohong, director of the new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", said: "This Qing Dynasty album provides the most direct help for the character modeling and costume design of the new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", and the main characters of "Dream of the Red Chamber" are all in it. How to comb your hair? How to wear clothes? How to wear jewelry? The picture book is very clearly depicted. ”
In an interview with reporters, Ye Jintian specially took out Sun Wen's picture book "Dream of the Red Chamber" album, telling reporters that he had studied this set of albums for many months, "I prefer the overall effect of Sun Wen's paintings, his character modeling has an opera flavor, and it is also very 'Dream of the Red Chamber'."
