Wonderful product | Master: Dong Qichang wrote "Buried Room Ming", like a mountain smearing micro-clouds, smoke and mist
Ming Dynasty Dong Qichang Li axis "Buried Room Ming".
Dong Qichang (1555-1636 AD), also known as Xuanzai, Sibai, Xiangguangju VII, was a native of Huating (present-day Songjiang, Shanghai).
In the seventeenth year of the Ming Dynasty (17 AD 5 89 AD), jinshi, xuanshu jishi, zhi editing, official to the rebbe Shangshu, Yu Wenmin. He is a genius and handsome, good at talking about fame and reason, less good calligraphy and painting, copying the real handwriting, and forgetting to sleep and eat.
The "Biography of Ming Shi Ai Yuan" says: At the same time, the people who are known as good books, Linyi Xingdong, Shuntian Mi Wanzhong, and Jinjiang Zhang Ruitu, when people called "Xing Zhang Mi Dong", also known as "Nan Dong Bei Mi", but the three people did not catch Qichang far away.
If it is said that the calligraphy of Xing Dong and Mi Wanzhong is inferior to that of Dong Qichang, this clear-eyed person will know it at a glance, but it is probably debatable to talk about Zhang Ruitu's "not catching his prosperity and being far away". Whether it is Xu Wei before Dong Qichang, or Zhang Ruitu, Zodiac Zhou, Wang Duo, Ni Yuanlu, and Fu Shan, who are all members of the Kaizong Founding School, their styles are very different from those of the beautiful Dong Qichang, and their achievements are outstanding. Compared with Zhang Ruitu, the side bias is used to the extreme, the horizontal support is used, the Canga is unique, and the Zhong Wang opens a path outside, when it is against the Dong clan.
Dong Qichang said: "When I was seventeen years old, when I first studied Yan Pingyuan's "Many Pagodas", I changed my study to Yu Yongxing, thinking that the Book of Tang was inferior to Jin and Wei, so I imitated the "Huangting Jing" and Zhong Yuanchang's "Declaration Table", "Force Life Table", "ReturnIng The Post", and "Bing She Ti" for three years, claiming to be forced to be ancient, and no longer using Wen Zhengzhong and Zhu Xizhe to put it out of the corner of their eyes. But the gods of the scribes have not yet entered the place, and they have not been in the same place. Compared with Jiaxing, you have to see the authentic works of xiangzi Jing's family, and see the right army's "Official Slave Thesis" in Jinling, Fang Wu used to vainly mark himself, and since then he has gradually gained a small gain. Twenty-seven years now, as if following the waves, the scholar Han Mo Trail, its difficulty is so. ”
This self-statement not only shows the direction and trajectory of his study, but especially reveals the fact that his arrogant collector Xiangzi Jingfuzhong opened his eyes and made great progress in his study after seeing the authentic works of ancient calligraphy. The ancients did not learn as well as our current photographic printing technology so developed, published a large number of books, can be compared with the advantages and disadvantages, they can see an ancient Fa Ti Tuo ben is lucky, not to mention the paper fine ink good authentic handwriting or facsimile, which is very important for broadening horizons, improve the technique!
After that, Dong Qichang also involved Li Yong, Xu Hao, Liu Gongquan, Yang Ningshi, Su Shi, Mi Fu and other former sages, perseverance, research into detail, and finally became a family of his own, creating a beautiful and sparse, elegant and fresh Style of Dong Pai.
Dong Qichang's calligraphy has pursued lightness and emphasis on the use of pens throughout his life, Zeng Yun: "Yu Shu and Zhao Mengfu are compared, each with its own shorts and lengths. The lines are dense, a thousand words together, I am not as good as Zhao. If you imitate the past dynasties, Zhao gets its eleven, and I get its seventeen. And Zhao Shu is vulgar because of familiarity, Wu Shu is born beautiful, often careless, when I make intentions, Zhao Shu also loses a chip, the first intention is less ear. ”
In this passage, Dong Qichang is self-conscious that he has copied kung fu, and judging from the large number of surviving works, although it is not as high and unattainable as his boast, it can be called profound. Dong Qichang is a high-ranking official, his family is rich, and the calligraphy and paintings of the past generations are very hidden, and there are many people who have passed through his eyes, accumulating over time, and his ability to appreciate is beyond the reach of extraordinary people. He imitated the works of Yan Lugong and Mi Yuanzhang, with profound skills, both original intentions and self-intentions, complete spirit, and compelling spirit, which is a rare masterpiece, and has benefited the most from these two schools and has become the backbone of his calligraphy.
At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the emperors were very fond of Dong Qichang's calligraphy, so that the good deeds competed to pursue and imitate it, and it swept the country. The Qing Dynasty also collected his works, and the market became increasingly bullish, and it was expensive to be a famous product. Wang Wenzhi, a famous scholar of the Qing Dynasty, once praised the "On the Absolute Sentence of the Book": "The scribe's divine product Dong Huating, the ink void yuan permeable spirit." In addition to the plains avoiding the seat, at the same time why say Zhang Xing. "For a while, the scholars all learned dong Qichang's beauty and soft charm. There are also many critics of Dong Qichang, with Bao Shichen and Kang Youwei being the most fierce. Kang Youwei's "Guangyi Zhou Shuangyi" Yun: "Although Xiangguang is famous, he is like a Taoist monk who rests grain, and his spirit is cold and frugal. If a great general strengthens his army, rams the sky, and changes the color of the flag, he will not dare to go down the mountain. ”
Dong Qichang's cursive writing is rooted in Yan Zhenqing's "Scramble for Seats" and "Sacrifice nephew draft", and has The Round Strength of Huai Su and the ups and downs of Mi Fu. With the pen is exquisite, it can always maintain the positive edge, there are few sharp pens and clumsy pens in the works; the use of ink is also very exquisite, dry and wet, thick and light, and do its best; the style is scattered and natural, quaint and peaceful, or related to his temperament and ease all day long, and the understanding of Zen. Many works have grass in the line, or use the pen to have the meaning of Yan Zhenqing's frankness, or the posture has the side of the rice, or the layout is Yang Ning's leisure and comfort, or the spirit is like Zhao Mengfu, or it is light and self-sufficient. Dong Qichang is also quite conceited about his own calligraphy, especially Xiao Kai, and indeed, whether it is Dong Qichang or Liu Yong's Xiao Kai is also a wonderful product, but it is often overlooked.
