In 1931, Chen Duxiu fled several times to avoid war and chaos in a hometown home in jiangjin countryside, Chongqing, and until his death in 1942, the relics left behind were only a pile of potatoes, which shows how bleak Chen Du's life was in the twilight years of poverty and illness. Nevertheless, he resolutely refused the 3,000 oceans sent by Chiang Kai-shek.
However, he was so stubborn and arrogant that he could not resist the temptation of calligraphy.
For example, this Han monument.
Chinese New Year's Eve approaching, Chen Duxiu was invited to Ouyang Jing's homeless guest, and Mr. Ouyang, who was also a university inquirer, also appreciated the ancient books rubbings, so he took out the "Wu Rong Monument" rubbings that had been treasured for many years to give to Tong Hao to enjoy, and he did not think that Chen Duxiu was attracted by the extraordinary and simple atmosphere of the "Wu Rong Monument" at a glance.
How can a big husband take the love of others, just pass the addiction? Even if I don't forget it on the spot, I am embarrassed to say it, but after returning home, I wrote a poem to express my admiration:
Through the Shu bottle bowl, lying in the sick mountain, there is little trouble.
The old twilight family foot dolphin duck, the old man envy the Wu Rong Monument.
In the Tang Dynasty, the painter monk Guan Xiu, because he escaped from the chaos of war, once lamented the desolation of the evening scene with the verse "A bottle and a bowl are hanging down, and a thousand rivers and a thousand mountains are obtained".
They all Chinese New Year's Eve every household to slaughter pigs and sheep to prepare for the New Year, although they were poor and sick, precarious, but this was not a matter, the only thing that made him hungry was the rubbing of the "Wu Rong Monument" that was open and the dot painting was solemn.
Later, after Ouyang Jingwu saw this poem, he may have been touched by his people and his heart, so he did not hesitate to give the "Wu Rong Monument" to Chen Duxiu.
The original stele has been dilapidated, and we appreciate the "Wu Rong Monument" that He Shaoji came to:
He Shaoji Linhan's "Wu Rong Monument" He Shaoji's masterpiece in the surviving book is extremely rare.
The original stone of "Wu Rong Monument" is in Jining, Shandong, and He Shaojilin's "Wu Rong Monument" writes a sense of thickness with a slow and clumsy stroke, and the remains are taken from the gods, interspersed with concessions, and the chungu is steep and healthy.
Regarding the unique goodness of the Han stele, Chen Duxiu said: When mediocre people write and only pay attention to copying the stele, it is inevitable that people who are clumsy and a little talented often disdain to copy it, and there is flesh and bonelessness in writing, and it is difficult for both to reach a wonderful state.
This is Chen Duxiu's set of calligraphy theories.
