"Jiangnan in the Yuan Dynasty" exhibition entrance
came here to the "Jiangnan in the Yuan Dynasty" exhibition hall (underground floor) of the Suzhou Museum. Between the artificial scenery background and reeds, it seems to be in the vast smoke and water. By the lake, a fresh and refined atmosphere came to my face.
The Song people's "Heaven in Heaven, Suzhou and Hangzhou on Earth" has been passed down for thousands of years; the popular gardens in the Ming Dynasty, Kunqu , and Wumen calligraphy and paintings define most of the imaginations of future generations of "Jiangnan". In the Yuan Dynasty, between the Song and Ming dynasties, whether calligraphy, painting and cultural relics, had a profound impact on the aesthetic art of Chinese literati art.
However, when later generations look back at the historical trajectory of the generation and development of Jiangnan culture, the Yuan Dynasty was an unavoidable "highlight" era. New trends such as establishing provinces, connecting north and south, and promoting sea transportation have brought fresh stimulation to Jiangnan society. The prosperity of quaternary trade has given birth to a more developed level of handicrafts. The rich economic foundation has provided fertile ground for literati activities, and for a time, famous artists have emerged. , the stars are shining.

The two words "Make Cloud" are between the foreheads of the stone, and the name is a 3-print of Yang Weizhen in Yuan .

A volume is listed in the middle, like the wind in the sky, the clouds are swaying and the cliffs are covered with beautiful cloth. When Yang Lian was playing the flute next to him, I occasionally used my teeth to beat the reward, making the sound clear and clear, and the rhythm of the trunks came from the trees.

From Zhao Mengfu and Ni Zan to the "Four Kings", it presents famous calligraphy and painting works of the Yuan Dynasty and influences
In Yuan Dynasty painting, literati painting occupies the mainstream of the painting world. Because there was no painting academy in the Yuan Dynasty, except for a few professional painters who directly served the palace, most of them were in the capital. They are scholar-official painters and literati painters in the wild. Their creations are relatively free and they mostly express their own living environment, interests and ideals. Their themes such as landscape, dead trees, bamboo and stones, plum and orchid appear in large numbers, directly reflecting the character paintings of social life. Reduce. The works emphasize literary nature and the charm of brush and ink, and attach importance to the combination of calligraphy and painting and poetry, calligraphy and painting.

The first part of this exhibition "Impression of Jiangnan" focuses on calligraphy and painting in the Yuan Dynasty and its influence. During this period, the Taihu Lake area located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River was located in the Taihu Lake area, due to its unique natural scenery and The humanistic talent since the Southern Song Dynasty has become the most popular culturally active area at that time. In calligraphy, Zhao Mengfu, a native of Wuxing (now Huzhou, Zhejiang), advocated retro, and opened up a generation of calligraphy style with freshness, extraordinary elegance, roundness and elegance; in painting, Huang Gongwang , Wu Zhen, Ni Zan, and Wang Meng, have developed the literati paintings that "based on the author's personality and different minds" to an unprecedented level.

"Fuchun Daling Picture" is a mountain that Huang Gongwang of the Yuan Dynasty used a lofty method to show Fuchun Mountain . , Panoramic view from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain: the water is surrounded by strange rocks, dense forests, vague thatched huts, round and round mountains, with mountain roads winding upwards, a bridge between the two mountains, and a hanging spring flows down. The scene is indifferent and quiet, and he works with " Fuchun Mountain Residence ". But the brush and ink seem to be more free and easy, and the outlines are more concise. There is no longer the beautiful long hemp texture of "Mountain Residence" that is as long as 20 cm long, but only light ink is used to rub and render it on the roots of the stone, and there is no longer the " The mountain residence map shows the thick ink horizontal and vertical dots of dense leaves next to the mountain rocks next to the dense forest, and replaced by light ink horizontal dots and thick ink dots.
