中国宫廷人物画的审美旨趣与艺术特征

Aesthetic Taste and Art Characteristics of Chinese Court Figure Painting

以皇帝为首的宫廷不但在政治、经济方面掌控着世道运作,在文化方面也采取各种手段引导着民众的审美趋向。中国宫廷人物画标示着皇室贵族的品位,也提领着时代的思想意识和艺术风尚。正是皇室的统摄,推进了中国人物画的创作并形成了典雅的传统。严谨的构图,准确的造型,工细的笔致,浓艳的色彩,有着不同凡俗的价值,反映了特定时代艺术家们的杰出贡献,尽管后世对其有不同评判,但反思和借鉴历史的经验和教训有益于当今人物画的发展。

The court led by the Emperor not only controls the politics and economy,but also the trend of aesthetic taste of the folk. The figure painting of the court signifies the taste of the royal nobility as well as the ideological awareness and art fashion. It is the royal sovereignty that promoted the creation of Chinese figure painting and formed the elegant tradition. Strict structure,accurate plastics,meticulous method and strong color all contained unworldly value,reflecting the outstanding achievement of the particular artists. Though criticized by later generations,the experience and lessons they earned are beneficial to the development of today’s figure paintings.
