“With Three Thatched Rooms and Two Qin of Fields, I Gently Stoke the Painting at Hand”— My Humble Opinion on Painting of Spring Ploughing and Thatched Cottage by Yu Zhiding

中国传统肖像画历史悠久,发展至清代,'波臣派'汲取西洋画派的凹凸立体技法,以写真风格引领明末清初的肖像画格局。清代肖像画坛代表人物之一禹之鼎,在该领域中既传承曾鲸的'墨骨'画法,又以娴熟的摹古技法承古纳新,开创出真实、自然、雅韵的'文人品格'肖像画艺术新风格。

Traditional Chinese portrait painting has a long history and when it developed to the Qing dynasty,the“Bochen”school absorbed the concave-convex stereoscopic techniques of western painting and reshaped the art circle of portrait painting of late Ming and early Qing dynasty with its realistic style.One of the representatives of the Qing dynasty is Yu Zhiding,who not only continued the“ink bone”technique of Zeng Jing,but also brought the composition of court life paintings to perfection with his skillful technique of modeling after ancient styles.By continuing the old tradition and absorbing new techniques,he initiated the new style of realistic,natural and elegant“literati”portrait.
