This winter, Hamako is really on fire
How many small southern potatoes
I want to go to "Erbin" to play in the snow
Already at the top?
△ Guangxi "small sugar orange" rolling in the snow.
Friends who haven't set off yet, don't worry
Today, let's get to know "Wudang Ji Xuetu"
Let's go to the ancient paintings first
The Wudang version of the "Ice and Snow World" of the Ming Dynasty
01
Take you on a show
Wudang version of "Ice and Snow World"
The ultimate complexity is just the right amount of white space
Colors of different shades of color are different in the way of drawing
More than 400 years ago
The Ming Dynasty painter Xie Shichen traveled to Wudang Mountain
Recorded with a paintbrush
Wudang Mountain after the heavy snow is clear
This is the famous snow scene painting "Wudang Ji Snow Picture"
Let's look at the whole first
"Wudang Jixue Map" is a huge banner and a large axis
It is 198.9 centimeters long and 98.8 centimeters wide
It is similar in size to a normal entrance door
Self-titled "Wudang Zixiao Palace Jixue"
There are three seals on the painting 钤 (qián).
“谢思忠氏”“樗仙子”“时臣”
The composition is dense, but dense but not jammed
The momentum is broad and the sense of wholeness is strong
It can be called the Wudang version of the "Ice and Snow World"
Look at the details again
The local portrayal is meticulous, but the overall beauty is not lost
When depicting complex mountains
The brushwork is thick and colorful
It makes the Zixiao Palace in Wudang Mountain very eye-catching
And when depicting the mountains, forests, trees and stones around Zixiao Palace
However, it is mainly ink and water, with a slight light color
The picture looks and feels
The main and secondary are clear, and the shades are appropriate
Take a closer look at the portrayal techniques of Zixiao Palace
The boundary painting is neat, and the pen line is delicate
(Note: Boundary painting, the name of a Chinese painting technique, generally refers to the painting method of drawing lines with a boundary ruler when painting)
Zixiao Palace surrounded by peaks
It is even more staggered and majestic
In particular, the pine forest is drawn
In order to show the spirit of the pine tree, "the length of a hundred trees".
The trunk is straight and tall, but the branches and leaves are intertwined
The picture is more lofty and quiet
Look from top down
Pine trees, trees, rocks, roofs, and blank spaces of distant mountains
It looks like the snow is deep and the cold is pressing
Tourists who stopped in front of the hall and pedestrians who braved the wind
It is more desirable to see Wudang Mountain
Every detail makes it
Wudang Zixiao Palace after the heavy snow and early sunshine
Majestic and magnificent
Xie Shichen used his superb painting skills
Let the snow scene of Wudang Mountain more than 400 years ago
Across time and space
It has reappeared magnificently in front of the eyes of the world

02
Ancient "Friend" Painter
Draw while playing!
The twentieth year of Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty (1541 AD)
It was at the time
Suzhou people go to Wudang Mountain to incense in the "tourist season"
Xie Shichen is most likely one of them
△ Portrait of Xie Shichen
In the Ming Dynasty, every year in the second lunar month
Inside the Suzhou Prefecture
Hundreds of incense boats from all walks of life gathered in Wuxi first
Then go upriver along the Yangtze River
Go to Wudang Mountain, Hubei Province to incense and visit
On the return trip, we will go down the Yangtze River
Take advantage of the visit to Wudang Mountain
Xie Shichen painted this "Wudang Jixue Picture"
Play and paint without delay, and draw while playing
It has always been his Xi of painting
△ Xie Shichen's other paintings made when he visited the mountains and rivers are all in the Palace Museum.
Xie Shichen is a native of Wu
That is, the current Suzhou people
Located in Suzhou
It is inevitable that it will be influenced by the "Wumen School".
(Note: Wen Zhengming, Shen Zhou, Tang Yin, and Qiu Ying are collectively known as the "Four Families of Wumen")
But Xie Shichen was different from the Suzhou painters of the time
Most of the Suzhou painters' footprints rarely set foot outside Suzhou
And he traveled all over the famous mountains and rivers
While being a "travel friend", I am also a "painter"
He is a veritable "travel friend" painter
Through the measurement of the feet and the "ingestion" of the eyes
Capture the most artistic conception
And record it with a paintbrush
It is precisely because of his rich experience
The painting can be so magnificent
03
Fusion of "Wu School" and "Zhejiang School"
His style of painting is unique
In the history of Chinese art
Xie Shichen was an important painter in the middle of the Ming Dynasty
But when the "North-South Sectarianism" arose
(Note: The Southern and Northern Sects, that is, "the Southern Sect that advocates literati painting and the Northern Sect that disparages connoisseur painting.") ）
他却名声寂寥
First of all
It is not difficult to see from "Wudang Jixue Picture".
Xie Shichen's painting style is both
There are two styles of light and elegant "Wu School" and thick ink "Zhejiang School".
Because of the style "fusion"
"Unpleasant" in both camps of painters
secondly
The rise of the "North-South Sectarianism".
And Xie Shichen was not a pure literati painter
It is difficult to expand and sustain social impact
But it is precisely because of his painting technique
The promotion and abandonment of the two styles of the Wu school and the Zhejiang school
He has achieved his own unique style of painting
Countless masterpieces have been left behind
Magnificent scenery after the snow of Wudang Mountain
The fantastic "Erbin" ice and snow world
Spanning hundreds of years
Ice and snow resources in the land of China
inexhaustible
