长安永宁坊的书画秘藏：权臣王涯篇

An Analysis of Wang Ya’s Art Collection in His Residence at Yongning Lane, Chang’an City

王涯是唐代中期重要的政治人物,曾两度位至宰相,又长期掌握财权,最终因依附郑注、李训卷入甘露之变而被杀。晚唐五代史家就已经注意到王涯的书画秘藏,北宋文人鉴藏家更是对王涯旧藏珍视有加。然而,今天的唐代书画收藏史上,却没有王涯的一席之地。作者重新梳理王涯的收藏史,揭示其书画收藏中招权纳贿与强取豪夺的案例,挖掘文宗朝的长安政治-社会形态中的社会网络和坊里空间,尝试将抽象的历史典故还原为真实的历史事件和人物,并以王涯收藏为例,推究唐代法书名画收藏从内府向贵戚、权臣、文士转移的路径,以期窥见晚唐收藏史之一斑。

Wang Ya, twice posted as Prime-Minister of the Tang dynasty, died for his involvement in ’Ganlu Incident’. His collection of paintings and calligraphy were already attractive to the historian of the late Tang and the Five-Dynasty periods, and highly respected by the scholars and collectors of the Northern-Song times. However, there is no mention in the Tang history of art collection. The analysis of Wang Ya’s experience revealed the cases of bribery, influence peddling in the process of the fine art purchasing and reselling, the social network and the lane space in the political-social formation of Chang’an under Emperor Wenzong’s (文宗) administration by reverting the abstract historical allusions to real historical events. The case study of Wang Ya offers a glimpse at the art collection history of the late Tang dynasty by tracing the transition from the imperial court to the hand of the nobleman, officials and scholars in the Tang dynasty.
