Famous painter in Qing Dynasty, one of the "Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou". In the fiftieth year of Kangxi, in the fifty-third year of Kangxi, he was called to the court to offer sacrifices. His palace meticulous painting is quite accomplished, and he was prevented from leaving his job because he didn't want to be bound by the "orthodox" painting style. After three years as a magistrate in tengxian, Shandong Province, Gan Long won the hearts of the people, but was dismissed for offending his boss.

His early painting style was meticulous and rigorous. The painting style of middle-aged people began to change to freehand brushwork, vigorous and powerful, which had a great influence on flower-and-bird painting in the late Qing Dynasty.

achievements of art

Li liked painting since he was a child, and by the time he was sixteen, he was already very famous. Later he was called a court painter.

Li _ "Take care of the big official to go home". After "two reforms and one demotion", he went to Yangzhou to sell paintings for a living. Zheng Xie (Zheng Banqiao), a fellow countryman, has the closest relationship. There is a saying that "Yangzhou sells paintings, and Li Lao", saying that Li _ "a talented person is quite shy about the world and full of admiration." .

In his early years, he studied landscape painting from Wei, a fellow countryman, and inherited Huang all the way. Learn painting with Jiang Tingxi when visiting the Forbidden City. The master of post-Sect painting highly advocates freehand brushwork. He also learned from Shi Tao's brushwork, painting with broken pens and splashing ink, and his painting style changed greatly, forming a unique style of "ink and wash blending into interest". I like to make long inscriptions on paintings, uneven handwriting and novel layout. His works had a great influence on flower-and-bird painting in the late Qing Dynasty.

Li expanded the expressive field of freehand flower-and-bird painting, including flowers, trees, household utensils, silkworms, etc., and drew more materials than his predecessors. There is also a new breakthrough in the expression of freehand flower-and-bird painting, which is full of pen and ink, hearty and unrestrained. At the same time, it absorbs the expression of boneless flowers, which is meticulous, elegant in color and ink, rich in varieties, full of three-dimensional sense and strong in artistic expression. Qin, a painting theorist in the late Qing Dynasty, commented on Tong Hua: "Li gallops freely, enjoys himself and has a great chance of winning."

Later generations have commented on Li's pen and ink, saying that it is "arrogant" and "lost in essence".

Li _ calligraphy is simple, with a willow bone. I like to write a long title and postscript on the picture, which is uneven and full of pictures. I can see the emptiness in the picture quality, and the charm of the picture will increase. Qin commented: "Calligraphy is simple, the titles of books are randomly arranged, unique, almost refined, and self-reliant."

Paintings handed down from generation to generation include "Iris on Earth Wall" by Nanjing Museum and "Matsumoto Map" by Palace Museum.

In 2005, Beijing Arts and Crafts Publishing House published The Complete Works of Famous Painters in China, including Li's Painting Collection (Volume I).
