十八世纪服务于京城王府宦邸的人物画家

Figural Portrait Painters in the Princely Mansions of Beijing in the Eighteenth Century

在18世纪的北京,应王府和显宦之需,出现了相当规模的人物画家群。他们以冷枚父子、莽鹄立、陈枚、崔鏏、徐玫、徐璋等为代表,最早曾受清宫画家焦秉贞的人物画风的影响,他们之中的许多人或多或少地与宫廷有过关联,受过宫廷艺术的影响,因此绘画风格形成了具有院体人物画的写实技巧并融合了西洋绘画的透视技法。他们的怍品描绘了王府和市井生活的情趣,为一方所重。其风格取向、活动地域与谋生方式均有许多相近之处,是一个既有风格联系,又各自为阵的人物画家群。

In response to the needs of princes and prominent officials in 18th century Beijing, a substantial group of portrait and figural painters emerged, of whom Leng Mu (father and son), Mangguli, Cm Hui, Xu Gui and Xu Zhang are representative. The earliest influence on the group was the figural painting style of the Qing Dynasty palace artist Jiao Bingzhen. All artists in the group had varying degrees of connection with the palace and were therefore subject stylistically to influences from the ' realism' of court figural painting and its admixture of Western painting techniques. Their works depict aspects of life in the princely mansions and urban Beijing, and the artistic styles, spheres of activity and modes of income of these artists have much in common.
