寻找《秋山图》

Tracing ‘Autumn Mountain’

黄公望的《秋山图》是一件清初“四王”都曾仿拟过的作品。由于董其昌和王时敏的高度评价,这幅画作被清代正统派画家视为黄公望的典范之作,然而其庐山真面却少有人见,其下落亦扑朔迷离。本文通过梳理文献记载和传世作品,试图探究《秋山图》的面貌与下落,并讨论该作品对于清初“四王”乃至整个清代正统派画家群体的意义。

Huang Gongwang’s painting of ‘Autumn Mountains’(Qiū Shān Tú) that was once copied by the ‘Four Wangs’ and highly praised by Dong Qichang and Wang Shimin was regarded as his masterpiece model by the orthodox painters of the Qing dynasty even though it was barely seen and remains missing. This essay analyzes the relevant historical records and handed-down works aiming for its exact feature and whereabouts, and it also touches on its effects upon the ‘Four Wangs’ and the orthodox painters in the Qing Dynasty.
