Wei Yan painted horse songs on the wall.
Wei Hou doesn't like me, knowing that I pity your invincible painting.
In the play, I used a bald pen to sweep the flowers, only to see Kirin coming out of the east wall.
A Ma Si, sit and watch thousands of miles like frosty hoofs.
Is it really so dangerous? Live and die with others.
In the poem, the poet first pointed out that Wei Yan was leaving Chengdu for other places with the phrase "Wei Hou doesn't like me, but he knows that I am invincible in painting", so he specially went to the thatched cottage to say goodbye to the poet. The painter also knows very well that Du Fu likes his paintings because his painting skills have reached a high level, and no one can match him at that time.
This is a very general evaluation of Wei Yan's superb painting skills, which shows that the artist's artistic skills are extremely exquisite, and he is not an ordinary person. ?
Then, the poet described the process of Wei Yan's painting. "The play was swept away with a bald pen, and Kirin was seen out of the East Wall several times." The meaning of these two poems is that the painter mentioned the bald pen as if he were joking, and he drew a swift horse effortlessly. Their vivid and lovely images, like rare animals, suddenly appeared on the east wall of the thatched cottage.
"Sweeping the Flower Country" means smearing it at will and becoming a swift horse. "Out of the East Wall" means that Shen Jun's good horse appears in the East Wall. The words "sweep" and "go out" here are used very aptly and vividly, which vividly shows the painter's painting mode with gods. It's not ugly. Wei Yan's profound knowledge and superb horse drawing skills are not ugly.
"A horse is grass, a Ma Si, and a thousand miles is a frosty hoof." One horse is eating grass with its head down, and the other horse is hissing with its head high. Their strong appearance and enterprising desire are on the paper. A good horse with four hooves like this can trample on frost and snow. There is no doubt that it can travel thousands of miles a day, and the heavy responsibility is on its shoulders. This is very similar to the image of a war horse described by Du Fu in Qinzhou Miscellaneous Poems: "Mourning and thinking about war, standing in the sky".
"This is the case in times of crisis, sharing life and death with others!" In other words, when the country is in danger, where can you find a swift horse like the one in the painting, live and die with the brave, and help the poor in times of danger? ! This shows how rare a good horse is, and it is far from easy to find a good Kyle!
It is exactly the same as what the poet said in "Du Gao Hu Qi Malaysia Airlines": "This horse has been invincible for a long time and encouraged others". When Du Fu wrote this poem, it coincided with the eventful autumn of civil strife and foreign invasion and continuous war. Obviously, these two poems are not without reason. Their original intention is to yearn for talents and select talents, which has the profound meaning of "worrying about the world and thinking about the future". This also fully embodies the poet's lofty thoughts and feelings of worrying about the country and the people and caring about the world.
In Du Fu's poems, there are many poems about horses. As early as in youth, the poet once praised the fine horse for "being true to life and death" (Fang Bing Cao Huma); Entering middle age, he also lamented that "the thin horse in the eastern suburbs hurts me, and the bone is like a wall, which can hurt the thin horse" ("Thin Horse Walking"); In his later years, Du Fu pitied that "old in dust, doing his best, and the end of the year was quite sad" (sick horse).
It should be said that poets don't chant horses for the sake of singing horses in their poems, but they all point to other things and express their feelings with horses. In this poem, he also used horses to pin his ambition and express his noble sentiments, so he poured all his love for horses into the poem. Therefore, Shen Deqian once pointed out: "There were no poems with inscriptions before the Tang Dynasty, and Lao Du also created this style.
Its methods are mainly based on non-painting. "(See" Talking about Poetry ") Qiu also thinks:" Wei Yan drew a horse on the wall of the thatched cottage, which left a mark. The public loves its god and wants to live and die together, then it deeply feels its life experience. " (Detailed Interpretation of Du Fu's Poems, Volume 9)
Wei Yanqiao, a great painter, painted a good horse, and Du Fu, a great poet, wrote famous articles. They all appeared on the east wall of Huanhuacao Hall, the poet's former residence. This is really unprecedented! However, more than a thousand years have passed, and the east wall of the thatched cottage has long since disappeared with this site forever. Although the horse painted on the wall cannot be copied, the poem on it will last forever.
Extended data
In the 8th century, Wei Yan was born in Chang 'an (now Xi, Shaanxi Province) and lived in Chengdu (now Sichuan Province). His date of birth and death is unknown. Officials at least supervise.
Wei Yan is good at drawing pommel horse, inheriting his own knowledge, far better than his father, and as famous as Cao Ba and Han Gan. Drawing horses by point cluster method began in Wei Yan, and jumping pens are often used to cluster horses. His "grazing map" drew 140 people and 1200 horses. Zhang Tang Yan Yuan said: "In your spare time, try to cluster the pommel horse with multiple notes, or to soar or lean, or to drink, or to be shocked or stopped, or to walk or get up, or to be tilted or hit, and the smallest one is the first point or the last touch. The music is as wonderful as true."
Wei Yan is the god of Cao Bama's painting, and Han Gan is the shape of a horse painting, which has both form and spirit. Du Fu once wrote poems praising his paintings, and Yuan Xian said in his poem: "Wei Yan painted Ma Song picturesque." The brush is vigorous, and the tail can be counted, such as Yan's calligraphy. He is also good at landscapes, turquoise and figures.
The landscape style is superb and belongs to Wang Wei School. The turquoise is better, thousands of miles away, the shadow is hidden, the haze is thin, the wind and rain are shaky, the wheel cover is dragon-shaped, and it is Chiba. Draw mountains and rivers, use ink for mountains, use pens for water, change clouds and smoke, grow on the far shore, brush the brush, but the scenery is not bad; The characters are monks and strange people, and the animals are cattle, sheep and donkeys, from each according to his ability.
There are 27 pictures recorded in Xuanhe Picture Book, such as Double Riding, Pasturing, Sanma, Ma San, Sha Niu and Matsushita Monk. His works handed down from ancient times include Li's Hundred Horses, which is now in the Palace Museum.
