——————————
A man who used a brush to scratch on rice paper arrogantly said: The ancients were a fart! In other words, he was better than a fart.

[Interpretation]
In the spring, Mr. Ninja's maternal uncle recruited Tiger Hill and was full. Famous mountains win points, and Xuan is happy to return. Send gold dishes, mash with white jade pots. The sunny sun calls the mountain birds, and the Spring Festival becomes Jiangpu. Luo is weak and difficult to win, and Ping is light and does not hinder the boat. The leaves have become a hoot, and the flowers have fallen but remained. The blue water is reduced to the sword, and the Hualin Treasure Pearl. The dragon light is gone, and the tiger elephant is always gone. The old house is closed to talk about Jin, and the boat is not hung Wu. Stop the cup and sing and dance, and ask back. Dense bamboo grows at the beginning of spring, and the flat land grows late. The smoke grows and the trees want to twilight, and the scattered birds call each other. The mountain monk sent it on the way back, and he could leave three smiles. The nephew Chong paused, and the manuscript was given by the uncle of the mother, and the cousin of the covenant was evaluated, March 21.
Ming ~ Yao Shou "Three Unique Atlas"
————————————————
Yao Shou (1422-1495), the name Gongshou, the name Gu'an, also known as Xian'an, Danqiusheng, Gu'anzi, Yundong Yishi, Han nationality, Zhejiang Jiaxing Dayun Temple. Ming Dynasty officials, calligraphers and painters. Tianshun eight years into the scholar, the official supervision of the imperial history resignation official returned to his hometown, built a room called Danqiu, known as "Mr. Danqiu". He and Du Qiong, Liu Jue, Xie Jin and other early literati painters of the Ming Dynasty inherited the mantle of the four Yuan families, and played a role in inheriting the past and opening up the future for the prosperity of the Wu school in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and can be called the early painters of the Wu school.
Yao Shou is good at painting landscapes, patriarchal people, deeply influenced by Wu Zhen, also take the law Zhao Mengfu, Wang Meng, Xiaojing is good to make a sand col water song, lonely fishing and solitary singing, its width is heavy Lin Yuanting, with four or five fishing boats only, the ink is lush, the dyeing is wonderful, also write bamboo and stone, there is a chic. I like to copy Zhao Mengfu and Wang Meng's two families, the ink is dyed wonderfully, and the bamboo and stone paintings are also influenced by Wu Zhen, with the pen vigorous and simple, the ink color is moist, and the mood is chic. He is good at regular script and calligraphy, and traces Zhong Xuan and Wang Xizhi in calligraphy, and takes Su Shi and Zhang Yu of the Yuan Dynasty, and the book is strong and graceful.
"Three Unique Atlas", also known as "Heart Appreciation of Landscape Album", was written in the seventh year of Hongzhi (1494 AD), and the author was 73 years old. Yao Shou's paintings originate from the literati painting system since Zhao Mengfu, and this album epitomizes his artistic characteristics. Yao Shou's small scene is good for making sand col water songs, fishing alone and singing alone, giving people a quiet beauty. In terms of expression techniques and tastes, the painter inherited the brush and ink tradition of Yuan Wu Town, and his style was rough and spicy, rich in the charm of simplicity and simplicity.
The content of each picture generally follows the theme of hidden landscapes of the literati painters of the Yuan Dynasty, but there are obvious differences in artistic conception, composition and artistic mood. The thick and concise brushwork of the pen is the most important thing of Wu Zhen; the pine and delicate brushwork on the mountain range in "Boat Journey on Parrot Lake" draws on the strengths of Huang Gongwang; and "Water Village" and "Imitation of Zhao Mengfu and Quehua Autumn Color" have the gentle and graceful brushwork of Zhao Mengfu.
