Chapter 670 Three Painters and Three Emperors

There are two seals on both sides of the poem, one is the "Bingwu" square seal, the other is the "Yu Shu" gourd seal, and there is also a "Jixi Palace Treasure" seal in the lower right corner of the painting.

"The third sentence talks about the plum tree on the right side of this painting, which is the 'Gongmei' style that the Ma family is best at, and historical records comment on Ma Lin's painting skills as 'the brush strokes are round and vigorous, and the painting style is as graceful as Naifu', which is consistent with poetry.

The statement is completely consistent.”

"This painting is actually three paintings spliced ​​together."

There is also a line of small words on the edge of the seal: "Chen Ma Lin is ashamed to continue".

The green fields of Qinshan Mountain continue to be romantic.

"Here, there is an inscription and monogram."

"The last sentence, you have explained it clearly just now. One generation pioneers, and four generations defeat Ji Qiu."

"In the poem, there is a line about "Five Generations of Xuanang Shaozu Qiu", which means that five generations of people inherit the ancestral heritage from generation to generation. Combined with the fact that the fourth aunt said that the five generations of the Ma family were all court painters, this painting should be of Song Ningzong in Ma Lin's period, which made him

It is a continuation of the ancestor's painting and then cleverly spliced ​​together."

"My grandfather Ma Xingzu was a painter during the Shaoxing period of Emperor Gaozong. He was good at identifying ancient cultural relics, working with flowers and birds, and was also good at painting people."

A frosty sky cuts off the wild geese in autumn,

"Really?" Zhou Zhi was surprised by the thin gold inscription and the weird monogram before. It was the calligraphy and monogram of Song Huizong, the absurd emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty. The content of the inscription was very simple, only the word "Siyuan".

"My uncle Ma Gongxian and his father Ma Shirong were all good at painting figures, landscapes, flowers and birds. During the Shaoxing period, they served in the imperial edict and were awarded gold belts."

Zhou Zhi looked over and saw that it was written in regular script in the style of two kings, with a poem inscribed on it.

"Hehehehe..." The fourth cousin smiled proudly as if he had been scratched.

"That was my fourth cousin's reminder." Zhou Zhi felt very ashamed: "Fourth cousin, please tell me the result."

"His great-grandfather Ma Ben was good at painting flowers, birds, figures, and Buddhist statues. After forming the "Ma Family" style, he served as a commissioned official for the Xuanhe Painting Academy of the Northern Song Dynasty under Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty."

After speaking, he pointed to the monogram on the picture: "This is the monogram of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, and there is also the 'imperial script' seal of this gourd. I seem to have seen it before. With the thin gold calligraphy, this painting should be logically

It is an 'ancient painting' from the Xuanhe period of Huizong."

The palace plum blossoms add beauty to the river,

The Five Dynasties Xuanang Shaozu Qiu.

"Three emperors?" Zhou Zhi thought there were only two.

"Really? How can you tell?"

"Ma Yuan is even more incredible. Together with Li Tang, Liu Songnian and Xia Gui, they are collectively known as the 'Four Southern Song Dynasty Schools'."

"There is also this poem. The font is not that of Song Huizong, but there is the seal of 'Yu Shu' on the edge and the seal of 'Ji Xi Dian Bao' below, indicating that it must be the calligraphy of another emperor."

This is also related to ancient calligraphy and painting habits. Paintings before the Northern Song Dynasty did not have the custom of leaving inscriptions and seals. Song Huizong was able to inscribe words and leave monograms, which already showed that he had given great honor to the world.

"He is good at painting landscapes, figures, flowers and birds, and landscapes. He adopts the method of Li Tang. His brushwork is strong and broad, and his brushing method is tough. He often clips the leaves, and the trunks are thick and often horizontal. The boundary paintings of the pavilions are exquisite, and they are dyed. He likes to make borders.

Jiao Xiaojing is known as 'Ma Yijiao' in the world."

The fourth aunt smiled and said: "Historical records indicate that Ma Lin was highly praised by Zhao Kuo in the forest and Yang, the Empress Gongsheng. Every time he painted a picture of father and son, he would mention it. For example, the "Layered Ice Silk Picture" hidden in the National Palace Museum in Taipei has

The poem is like a cold butterfly sleeping in a flower house, embracing the sandalwood heart and recalling the old fragrance. It is especially lovely when it blooms in the cold. This must be the makeup of the Han Dynasty.'"

The fourth uncle said proudly: "We have compared the calligraphy in the picture album. The poem on this picture is exactly the same as the calligraphy style of "Layered Ice Thread Picture", so we can conclude that this poem was written by Song Ningzong."

"Then there are only two emperors, Huizong and Ningzong?" Zhou Zhi asked strangely.

"You missed this seal." The fourth aunt said: "The Jixi Palace Treasure is the seal of appreciation of Song Lizong's collection of calligraphy and painting."
