The literati engraved the seal, and Wang Yuanzhang at the end of the Zhaoduan Yuan, and then he advocated Wen and He, and the study of seals flourished. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, the work is as stable as Wang Yinzi, the mud is as good as Deng Wanbai, the ancient Ao has Ding Jing's body, the fluency has Zhao Shu's uncle, all the laws are ready, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Zhejiang school has become the end of the strong, and the Deng and Zhao schools have no successors.
To Anji Wu Changshuo, the leader of the various factions, into the ancient and new, self-established family, really the so-called "self-made ancient empty group of heroes".
Pegatron used to print people, but he knew that there was a knife, he didn't know that there was a pen, and he was mottled, that is, Gao Gu, and he was careful and tidy, that is, he was called Xinya, although the cloud rules Qin Mohan, once the manuscript was written on the stone, the blade was punched, and the blade was like a blade, and the pen intention was dissolved, and sages such as Ding and Deng were not exempt from this drawback.
It must be known that the seal book comes from calligraphy, and it is not that Ding and Deng cannot seal the book, but that Ding and Deng cannot integrate the book and the engraving.
In his life, Pegatron worked hard to hunt the jie the most, and practiced day by day, the stone drum was early and ripe in the chest, and he could manipulate the yao with joy, so he could carry a knife like a pen, and people commented that Pegatron's "broken lotus pavilion" can shock the storm and cry ghosts and gods.
Pegatron has been in the Xiling Seal Society for many years, "preserving gold and stones and studying printing", and has made great achievements. Its authors Chen Shizeng, Zhao Guni, Li Kuli, Wang Qiqi, etc., and the Japanese Kawai Quanlu also came to the east to pay homage to the door and post.
Qi Baishi can't worship the door, there is a poetic chronicle cloud: "Qingteng Xue is a distant mortal fetus, the old man is not talented, I want Jiuyuan to be a lackey, and the three families will come under the wheel." "The reputation of the seal carving has been popular at home and abroad for decades, and it has not waned, and it is well deserved to be the chief of Liangshan.
Praise: The most refined imitation clay seal, tile Ding Yi open sect. With a pen like a knife, look at the first peak of Daiyue. ◎ There are many photos handed down by Wu Changshuo, but they are not as vivid as the few paintings made by Ren Bonian for him, the portrait of the sour and salty captain and the sky map of hunger have Yang Jianshan's inscription, and the banana shade and cool map (Figure 1-1) has a long poem written by Wu Changshuo with a seal book inscription: "Heaven travels in the clouds without heart, and learning still life can be understood." The belly was drunk for three days, and the body was fat and five stone gourds.

When the years are smooth, you will be deaf and interesting. Elbow acid foot lameness, lung liver disease has been Lou. A good official swears not to do it, and it is difficult to take care of it. Insufficient livelihood asks, straight to the axe in the car. No extreme shame, people's faces are like mud. Strange things sigh, calligraphers and painters are also jealous. Although the fruit is noble, self-improvement and self-improvement. Drink ink often a few times, spit on the paper. Or a dragon on a flying wall, or a beetle walking in a book. It's ridiculous to get money, buy drunk for a while. It's better to go back, learn agriculture and learn.
The banana leaves are delicate, and it rained like a note last night. In the green mountains and white clouds, there is a lot of poetry. Ren and Wu Yi and mentor, Wu Changshuo carved the "painting slave" Zhu Wenju seal for Ren Bonian at the age of forty-three, which can be called a careful work, and the side praised Bo Nian's painting art: "Mr. Bo Nian painted strangely, the seeker followed the heel, without a moment, changed the number to paint the slave, and was good at comparing himself."
Bitter iron ming: painting water wind and thunder, painting stones in disguise as ghosts, people or not, and painting slaves is shameless. Unfortunately, there is no Xiao Yingshi in the world. Guangxu Bingfeng winter November, Bo traveled to Shanghai. "Compared with the later topology, the sidebar is slightly thicker and the lines are straighter, and it is unknown whether the repairer is Wu Changshuo himself. (Fig. 1-2, Fig. 1-3)

◎ The artist's representative works, the artist himself has the right to speak, selected by others, always up to the point, "Ming and Qing Seal Carving School Seal" in addition to his own name seal, according to the style selected Shoubo, Qin Yun, Qiusi, Yiluo descendants, Dao Wushuang, etc.; In "Selected Seal Carvings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties", Bai Wen Gao Yongzhi, Qian Zhulu, and Huang Ben Dai are all good; The "Xiling Seal Society Member Seal Collection" is the best selected, and the Maizuru Xuan engraved by Ge Shu outside the name seal is really a boutique; "The Art of Seal Carving in the Republic of China" was selected for a white text engraved with a large nail "An Wu Zhu Yantao Collection of Golden Stone Calligraphy and Painting Seal", which is chic; "The Biography of Modern Indians" selects "people in the Xiling Seal Society" to be the most relevant; (Fig. 1-4) The "Selected Works of Twentieth Century Seal Carvers" also selected the collection seal carved with nails.
Most of the above books have chosen the "Hai Ri Lou" engraved by Shen Ying, but according to Mr. Fang Quyan's opinion in the "Seal Carving School of the Ming and Qing Dynasties": "From the perspective of knife and seal method, they are all similar to Wu Han, and may be the work of Wu Han's ghostwriting." "There is some truth to this, the picture of this print will be attached to the strip of the Wuzang Shrine.
In 1984, the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications issued Wu Changshuo stamp T.98, the theme was suggested by a signature, six paintings, one each for calligraphy and seal carving, calligraphy is the seal book couplet "Jinshi Le Calligraphy and Painting Edge", seal engraving two "Beauty and Yi Yannian" and "Riding the Long Wind and Breaking Thousands of Miles", (Picture 1-5, Picture 1-6) This may be a masterpiece of the old teacher.

◎ The most uncontroversial representative work of Wu Changshuo's seal carving works should be pushed Zhu Wen "Breaking the Lotus Pavilion", (Fig. 1-7) Bian Yangwen "Ancient Iron Seal Gaohun All the Way", the mood is quite self-satisfied, and the side of the seal is engraved with a head, on which there is a Zen masterpiece: "The Tao is ambiguous, and the steps are retreating." The face is impressive, showing people's backs.
As for "weeping ghosts and gods in the storm" is Mr. Zhou Juwu's comment on this seal, Professor Liu Jiang explained the composition of this seal in detail: "This three-character Zhu Wenyin, in the seal method, especially emphasizes the pavilion character, occupying a single line, the upper bundle and the lower sparse, almost half empty, and the two characters of broken lotus overlap into one line, so the right and upper half of the wall are dense, the lower left part is empty, and the dense contrast is strong. In particular, the lower part of the pavilion character is formed into a triangular focus, and the right stroke and the bottom three heavy strokes make the whole print appear stable, resulting in a thick and simple, vast and ancient style. ”

◎ Tian Zige is more common in the Qin Han Baiwen Seal, and Wu Changshuo creatively used Zhu Wenyin, there are many such works, the four-character seal is the best for his own use of the "Stone Man Zi Room" (Figure 1-8), the "Bright Moon Predecessor" is also good, if it is five characters, then two of the characters are combined in one box,
For example, "Anji County, Huzhou", "Andong Ling in January", and "Taishan Remnant Stone Building" carved for Gao Yong are better, (Fig. 1-9) The "gardener born in Meidong grows in Bamboo Cave" carved for Min Gardener is mostly self-crossed, and the word "born in" lives together, which is particularly wonderful.
Most of the disciples of the Yi Sect have used this pattern, but the ones that impress people are Zhao Guni's "Mustard Essence House", Wang Qiu's "Rough Clothes and Messy Heads", and Zhu Fujian's "Plum Market Grass Hall".

◎ The side paragraph of the previous example "Xiling Seal Society People" is worth noting: "Shi Qian, the two brothers of the auxiliary society are engraved, and the three brothers and friends of the Jinshi family are held as gifts." Ding Chunzhong, Anji Wu Changshuo. "Ding Wei is 1917, Shi Qian is Wu Yin, supplemented by Ding Ren, both are the founders of the Xiling Seal Society, Wu Shiqian and Ding Fuzhi jointly asked the president Wu Changshuo to engrave this seal, solemnly gave it to Ge Shuzheng, it seems to be a token for Ge to join the Printing Society, so who is Ge Shuzheng?
Lin Qianliang's "Xiling Stars" mentioned that Ge Shuzheng (1892-1963) was a famous Changyang, born in a Pinghu family, in addition to the collection of good calligraphy and paintings, he had a lot of collections, and once compiled "Chuanputang Tibetan Seal Jinghua", "Yanlu Seal Collection", etc., and also compiled "Ding Ugly Robbery Surplus Print" with Ding Ren and others.
But in 1917, Ge Shuzheng was only twenty-six years old, and what was the reason for getting the favor of these bigwigs in the printing world was really a mystery. Not only that, around this year, Wu Changshuo engraved more than 30 pieces for Ge Shuzheng and his younger brother Ge Zufen, most of which were fine products, and the white text "Chuanputang Seal" was also one of them. (Figure 1-10)

◎ There are many records of Wu Changshuo's interactions with Dongying people, but the one who personally obtained Wu Changshuo's hand-engraved seal was a Korean Min Yongyi (1860-1914). Min is the nephew of Princess Min (Empress Mingcheng) of Emperor Gaozong of the Li Dynasty of Joseon, who went into exile in Shanghai after Empress Myeongseong was killed, and his short biography is contained in "Merlin on the Sea": "Min Yongyi Zi gardener, a Korean national, a noble Qi of this pepper house, died in the country, avoided Shanghai, entertained himself with Han Mo, and lived in Chihiro Zhuzhai."
Shuxue Yan Plain, good at drawing orchid bamboo, strong pen. Every Sunday, celebrities of calligraphy and painting are recruited, banquets are held, and Wenhan is entertained. Got sick, quit. He died three years after Xuantong Xinhai, and his son was buried in Incheon. "Gardener Min has a lot of contacts with Shanghai artists, and Wu Changshuo has engraved more than 100 ways for him, almost all of them with heart.
Min especially likes to engrave multiple pieces with the same title, which seems to be pushing the creative limits of seal carvers, and there are about 30 "gardeners" of different styles, (Fig. 1-11) more than 20 "Chihiro Bamboo Zhai" and "Min's Chihiro Bamboo Zhai", and (Fig. 1-12) more than 10 "Pine Stone Garden Sprinkle Men". (Figure 1-13)

◎ Huang Mufu's self-use printing level is not high, while Wu Changshuo's self-engraving is very particular, Sha Menghai's "Wu Changshuo Self-use Seal Collection" said: "Never a famous master for people to rule, or to urge rewards, may not be satisfactory, to their pleasure to self-made, rarely do not think deeply, self-made and commonly used, especially happy works." Mr. has many and refined prints for his own use, and there is no second hand in ancient and modern times. "Mr. Sha's views are very good, and what Wu often uses in calligraphy and painting works is the best of the best.
"Wu Junzhi's Seal" and "Wu Changshi" (Figs. 1-14), two-sided seals made at the age of 56, used until the last age; "Fifty days before abandoning the official Peng Zeling" is Tian Huang, the stone quality is too good, and the knife is inevitably a little restrained, but it is less domineering, and it turns to charm; "Xiong Jiachen", (Figs. 1-15) is a work of intention in his later years, and the side notes are also interesting; "No need for old people" is engraved for the age of eighty-one. (Figure 1-16)

◎ Wu Changshuo likes to use Taoist language into the print, influenced by Wu, the disciples of the Qiao school also love to use Lao Zhuang to form sentences, this "strong bone" is one of the works that has been imitated by disciples the most, (Fig. 1-17) but most of the later students changed the white text to Zhuwen, see Lai Chusheng, Yu Rentian, Ning Axecheng, Chen Banding, Zhu Le San and so on.
