For the first time, the exhibition brought together a few Songyuan calligraphy and painting treasures collected by the Lingnan region of the past generations and the famous Lingnan people in history.

In the form of multimedia, such as text, pictures, and videos, invite the current calligraphy and painting industry, the famous research world, and the descendants of the famous collectors of Lingnan to introduce and analyze the key exhibits.

A few days ago, Chen Chuanxi, a professor at Renmin University of China and a well -known art history scholar, visited Guangzhou to visit the annual exhibition of the Guangdong Provincial Museum "The Special Exhibition of Crown Nantian -Guangdong, Tibet, and Yuan Painting and Calligraphy.

Entering the exhibition hall, the premiere was the key Song, Yuan calligraphy and painting collection of the Guangdong Provincial Museum -Chen Rong of the Southern Song Dynasty. The boutique in Chen Rongzhi's true traces was transferred to the Guangdong Provincial Museum by the Guangdong Provincial Cultural Management Association in 1958.

The work is made of two silk, and the silk texture and color are well preserved, wonderful and expressive. When the picture depicts a flying dragon, the dragon's attitude is hovering and healthy, the clouds are surrounded by the whole body, the tail of the body is hidden, and there is a magnificent trend over nine days away.

The painter used thick lines to outline the dragon's outline, staining its main part with a thick ink color, making the image of the dragon clear. The clouds that cover their body are dripped in ink, the brush is fast, without exposed pen marks, and the fragile scene is realistic. The vortex swept out of the thirsty ink vividly expressed the strong and ill style when the dragon rose, and strongly settled the divine power of Longxing Yunfuyu.

There are three basis for judging the authenticity basis

Chen Rong, the word public storage, No. Weng, a man in Fujian, and a scholar in Duan Ping in the Southern Song Dynasty. He had been a prince of Putian, Fujian. He was a well -known dragon expert at that time.

Chen Chuanxi told the Yangcheng Evening News reporter that in the history of Chinese painting, there are rare artists specializing in dragons. Chen Rong is one of the best, and has a high status in the history of painting. According to the history of painting, Chen Rong painted dragon "the meaning of changes, splashing ink into clouds, fog into a fog, or the whole, or one arm, faint and unknown person, which is wonderful."

It is sophisticated that the ink painting dragon began in the five generations and became popular in the Song Dynasty. The "Dragon Water" painting today is the earliest visible to the world, such as Chen Rong and others, and inherited the tradition and breakthrough, which has a profound impact on future generations. The ancients commented on "the Dragon Dragon World is called the Weng", and once called the "Boshi Horse, Public Reserve Dragon", and his painting dragon and Li Gonglin painted the horse in the Northern Song Dynasty. There are many painters with ink painting dragons in Yuanming and Qing dynasties. They are exhibited in this exhibition, but most of them imitate Chen Rong, and rarely break through Chen Rong's peak.

"Mo Long Map" attracts tourists to take pictures

Chen Rong's work is not much. The "Modong Map" was exhibited, and the former member of the National Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee Qi Gong, Xu Bangda, Su Gengchun and others identified it.

"This painting is indeed a true trace of Chen Rong in the Southern Song Dynasty." According to the painting, Chen Chuanxi made such a judgment on the spot. There were three basis:

"One is that its painting method is set off with large blockbusters. This method has not been before the Southern Song Dynasty; the second is that the dragon in the painting is four claws, the Songqian dragon is three claws, and the Song Dynasty becomes four claws, and the Ming and Qing dynasties are five claws; the third is to be five claws; Looking at the line style of the picture, between literati paintings and painter paintings, Chen Rong Jinshi is born in itself, poetry and books

Only eleven works in the world

The Chinese hold themselves with the "dragon's heir". The ancients regarded the "dragon" as a kind of god, one of the four spirits, and could change the spirit, faintly, and fascinated the clouds, clouds and rain. The rulers of all ages often symbolize themselves with dragons.

Since "Dragon" is a kind of deed, there is no real image as a basis. Therefore, the painters of all ages just imagine their forms by myths and legends. With the change of the concept of the dragon, the image of the dragon in each era is also different. During the Han and Tang dynasties, it was mostly beast -shaped, and after the Song Dynasty, it gradually became snake -shaped.

The bottom right of the "Mo Long Tu" picture displayed, there is a three -character poem from Chen Rong's self -tip: "Fuhehan, touching Hua Hui. Pu Jue Shi, successful. "Heng's work". Three parties of the seal: "Shou Weng" Zhu Fangyin, "Thunderbolt" Zhu Yuanyin, "Jiu Yuan Zhen" Zhu Bai's seal. This poem can be described as the interpretation of the inscription. The painter painted the dragon, to show the majestic spirit of the dragon and the mountains and rivers.

A few days ago, Professor Chen Chuanxi held a lecture in Nanfeng Bookstore, Guangzhou

According to statistics from scholars, there are only 11 pieces of Chen Rong's works today. In the old collection of the Qing Dynasty, the "Kowloon Map" volume, "Six Dragons" volumes, "Lin Yu Tu" axis, etc. Among them, four "Kowloon Map Volumes", such as the American institutions such as the Boston Museum, and three such as "Dragon Map Axis" and other Japanese institutions such as the Tokugawa Art Museum. There are four collections.
