"Cao clothes come out of the water, Wu brings wind." Ask the master to explain the allusion.

"Cao clothes come out of the water, Wu rides the wind" mainly refers to two different ways of expression of clothes pleats in ancient figure paintings.

"Cao clothes come out of the water"-a hard and heavy brushwork, and the clothes of the characters painted are close to the body, as if they had just come out of the water. Cao (Beiqi), a native of Cao, is the most skilled worker. He can paint portraits of the Vatican. He painted many buddhas and bodhisattvas, but unfortunately no works have been handed down. However, this style is found in the Buddha statues unearthed in longxing temple. 1996 10 found a batch of 400 Buddha statues at the site of longxing temple in Qingzhou city. The era spans from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Northern Song Dynasty, which is roughly similar to the Dunhuang Tibetan Scriptures and has the same mystery as the last time of meditation. ) longxing temple's works in the Northern Dynasties reflect the famous style of "Cao Yi comes out of the water" in the history of painting.

"Wu Dai in the Wind" _ _ is a round and elegant brushwork, and the clothes drawn by the characters seem to be floating in the wind. Wu Daozi is a Taoist, also known as Daoxuan. The characters painted by Wu Daozi are very distinctive. Unlike Gu Kaizhi and He, Jin people are more dense and sparse than Gu and Lu, and their brushwork is not good enough, but their appearance is lacking and their spirit is complete. He also changed the uniform "iron line drawing" since Gu Kaizhi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and was good at rhythmic "orchid painting"; It broke through the artistic form of "Cao clothes coming out of the water" in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and the brushwork turned and the clothes danced, forming a unique style of "Five Dynasties as the wind", which was popular in the times and was called "Wu Family Style". Wu Daozi is good at grasping the vivid law and paying attention to the overall image-building, so women hold furnace murals to the point of "stealing their eyes". Very vivid. His paintings, together with Zhang Xu's cursive script and Fei's swordsmanship, were known as the "three wonders" at that time.

Legend has it that Wu Daozi met calligrapher Zhang Xu and swordsman Pei in Luoyang. Pei asked Wu to make murals for his dead parents in the Tiangong Temple. Wu did not reward gold, but asked Pei to dance with his sword and show his momentum. After the dance, I worked hard and finished it in a short time. Zhang Xu also wrote a wall there. Luoyang people all say, "You can see three wonders in one day." If you want to see Uday Dangfeng, of course, you have to go to Dunhuang.
