论六朝时期的绘画观

On the View of Painting in Six-Dynasties

六朝时期一般被笼统地视为文艺的自觉时代,不过各艺术门类的地位并不完全相同。魏晋前后,画家在文化史上的地位发生了转移,由之前的无名画工为主一变而为士人主导。绘画在六朝文化体系中的地位低于文学、音乐和书法,不过亦成为士人文化素养的一个体现。六朝绘画的功能,人物画以道德教化为主,山水画则以审美为主要目的。

In general, six-dynasties is regarded as the conscientious era of literature and art, but the position of artistic class are not identical. Around Wei and Jin dynasties, the painter＇s status changed from anonymous craftsmen to Literati. The position of painting is lower than literature,music and calligraphy in the cultural system of six-dynasties, but still became a embodiment of scholars＇ cultural literacy. The function of figure painting was moral education, but the landscape painting was mainly for the aesthetic purpose.
