桂馥的《黔南苗蛮图说》和作者的民族地区治理情结

On Gui Fu's "Pictorial Illustration of Miao in Southern Guizhou" and His Emotional Complex of Ethnic Region Management

从图画的角度看,中央民族大学图书馆藏的桂馥《黔南苗蛮图》是清代《百苗图》与《耕织图》的综合体。桂图向读者呈现了一个安逸、富庶的贵州民族生活情境。我们可以把桂图看作是"贵州苗蛮耕织图",尽管作者声称其作图的目的是"悉苗蛮之风俗与好尚",但图中的场景并非是画家对现实的模写,而是一种期盼和引导民族地区民众男耕女织、自力更生、安居乐业的美好愿望的生动表现。

From the perspective of painting,Gui Fu＇s ＂Pictorial Illustration of Miao in Southern Guizhou＂ collected in the library of Minzu University of China can be taken as a combination of ＂Picture of 100 Miao People＂ and ＂Picture of Plowing and Weaving＂ painted in Qing Dynasty.Gui＇s picture depicts a rich and carefree life of Guizhou＇s ethnic group.Although the painter claimed that the purpose of his painting was to ＂reveal the customs and values of Miao＂,we can take it as a ＂Picture of Plowing and Weaving of Miao People in Guizhou＂,because the scene in the painting is not a presentation of the real life,but a vivid depiction of his expectation of leading people of the ethnical area to a happy,man-plowing and woman-weaving,and self-reliant life.
