Humorous people are more popular in almost any occasion, but unfortunately Xiao Si is not a very humorous person. There are many kinds of humor. This time, the Forbidden City in Taipei takes ten works by calligraphers and painters of all ages as an example to express the theme of humor. These ten paintings include masterpieces that have been passed down from generation to generation, as well as sketches by famous painters. Whether it is the joke between friends, the humorous shape presents the characteristics of the mode, subverts the image, or persuades people to become a world, or ridicule the world, they all use their creative ideas and techniques to present the humorous interest in different aspects. Xiao Si will introduce these ten sets of products.
Song Liang Kai The ink splashing immortal
This painting is actually the second picture of the book "Famous Painting Linlang". The immortal in the painting has a flat breast and a belly exposed, and is staggering. Except for the head, ear, chest line and five senses, the rest are painted with ink and water, and the vertical strokes are sprinkled, not seeking similar shapes, but can vividly convey the spirit. The immortal's drunken and comfortable feeling after drinking is undoubtedly revealed in the tight smile of his facial features. Although it is a very small facial expression, it fully shows the painter's sense of humor. Liang Kai is addicted to alcohol and enjoys himself, and does not follow the etiquette and law, and is called "Liang Madman". Xiao Si couldn't help but wonder, is the painter the painter the person he painted?
yuan Zhao Mengfu (Biography) Book hates fly
Although this book is titled Zhao Mengfu, a famous calligrapher and painter of the Yuan Dynasty, its overall feeling is weak, not like Zhao Mengfu's style, but it reveals the brushwork of Wen Zhengming, so it may be a work of a late Ming calligrapher. This book can show the dual humor in literature and calligraphy. The writer formally wrote an article detailing the inconspicuous, harmful, and sometimes annoying insect habits, as well as the troublesome harms of flies, and using humorous methods to satirize the chaotic country of slandering people. Using this title as the title, he completed his writing and said that he was adaptable to his writing, which also had some meanings, fully reflecting the writer's voice.
Ming Shen Zhou "Cat"
Shen Zhou is one of the four great masters of the Ming Dynasty. This picture is the fifteenth picture of "Sketchbook". The book titled "The playful writing when sitting alone in the small window" is elegant and unrestrained, with a very literary interest, and business is revealed in its simple and clumsy taste. The cat in the painting curled into a circle, with its head tilted inside, and its eyes widened. Although cats often have coiling movements, Shen Zhou's special lengthening of the head position and body in this picture may not necessarily fit the body structure. What Shen Zhou cares about is to deliberately round the cat, and hook the toes in a simple way, which is rich in humor and naughty mood.
Ming Shen Zhou Huaxus
This is a letter from Shen Zhou, but the content says that Shen Zhou’s friend Zhao Mingyu has no beard. Another friend of Shen Zhou, Yao Cundao, asked for help from the beautiful bearded husband Zhou Zongdao, and divided the ten stems to Zhao Mingyu to make up for the shortcomings. This was originally a joke among friends, but the text used a very serious quotation of classics and was written in large characters for running script. The style of calligraphy is calm and steady, and the body is vigorous and vigorous, making it a representative work of his great running script. This contrast between rigor and humor is exactly what Shen Zhou shows about humor. There seems to be no friends around Xiao Si who have no beards, but there are a few who have no hair. Xiao Si also wants to write.
Ming Wen Zhengming Hanlin Zhong Kui
wen Zhengming is also one of the four great masters of the Ming Dynasty, and is both good at poetry, calligraphy and painting. In Eastern Jin Ge Hong's " Baopuzi ", the place where Zhong Kui catches ghosts and monsters is in the mountains and forests, there is also a pattern of "Cold Forest Zhong Kui". However, in the Ming Dynasty, literati painters often replaced swords with a tablet, changing the image of a military officer waving his sword in the past, and evolved into the typical example of "Wen Xiang Zhong Kui". Zhong Kui in this painting shows the handsome and refreshing wind spirit and gives him a smile. He is a little naughty. Is it a joyful move away the ghosts or to see everything in the world with a smile? The humor is for the viewer to experience.
Qing Huang Yingchen Painting the detached ghost text landscape
Why do you mean ghost again~ Xiao Si is not afraid~ Huang Yingchen was a painter in the early Qing Dynasty, good at painting characters, ghost judges, and babies. This painting mainly talks about the compilation of the manuscripts of the Ming Shen Shixing (1535-1614) "The Essay on Removing Detective Ghosts" because of sleepiness. In view of the saying that "the ghosts enter it when they are sleepy", he wrote an article to expel them, but when he was sleepy, he saw the tired ghosts coming to defend.However, this painting is a spring scenery with lush branches. The Chinese scholars in the pavilion sleep in peace. They are as tired as ghosts, with no ferociousness or deformation, and come in a row, with only a slight strange atmosphere.
Qing Huayan Bee Tiger
Huayan is one of the representative figures of the Tizhou School of Painting, good at painting characters, landscapes, flowers, birds, grass and insects. This is the fourth volume of Hua Yan's Sketch Book in the second volume stored by Lan Qianshan Pavilion. Xiao Si is truly unprecedented in this image of a tiger. The tiger in the painting bows its head and bows its body, with its tail drooping, and raises its front paws, revealing its pitiful expression that is too scared to avoid when it comes to a bee attack, and is helpless, completely subverting the majestic image of a tiger that is accustomed to. The painter has a lot of humor in this dramatic way of description.
Qing, no style, Fengsui Xianzhaotu,
This painting is a famous painting. Zhong Kui in the painting is wearing a red robe, with four ghosts sitting under him, taking off his black hat, and "smile" in front of the mirror. . Zhong Kui has an ugly face and is even surprised when he looks in the mirror. The layout is full of fun, which makes people smile. The other four little ghosts who were pressed down did not have a fearful expression, but a helpless expression, which also showed the humorous elements of the author's clever design.
Republic of China Pu Xinyu Cat and mouse ink play
Pu Xinyu is a descendant of the Qing royal family. Poetry, calligraphy and painting are elegant and outspoken, and are known as "Southern, Zhang, North Pu" together with Zhang Daqian. The cat in this painting is sleeping soundly. There are two groups of anthropomorphic rats, one wearing women's clothing, and the other two are humble in their attitude, as if they are submitted to documents, and there are some questions; the one below is a cup-shaped person, and the other is like a fat man, lying on the table, lying drunk. Although Mr. Pu did not explain it, it means that the cat is sleeping or pretending to be asleep, and uses the mouse to satirize some behaviors in the world. It is obvious that it is inspired and chooses to express it in a humorous and childlike way.
Republic of China Chen Dingshan Sleeping Cat
Chen Dingshan’s original name was Qi, with his courtesy name Xiaodie. He changed his name to Dingshan after he was forty. In this painting, the civil servants dressed in a stone-sided manner and accompanied the cat, sleeping on the ground, with wine jars, pots and ladles next to it. Should I be drunk or sleeping? The title is: "A cat is sleeping and does not respond, but it depends on the mouse to be circling." It points out the meaning of the painting. The person in the painting is sleeping naturally, or deliberately ignoring it, or sleeping with wine and sleeping regardless of the troubles of the world. Although he does not express his helplessness in the world, he uses paintings and cats and mice to imply.
is also a famous painter, so it is normal to have a sense of humor. These include not only Shen Zhou and Wen Zhengming, one of the famous , the four schools of Ming Dynasty, but also the works of Fu Ming, and Pu Xinyu, who is as famous as Zhang Daqian in modern times. Although she is very selfish in ten works, Xiao Si thinks it is worth seeing.
