Bao, whose real name is Shen Bo, is a petty official of late tired Weng. He is a disciple of Deng, a native of Jingxian County, Anhui Province, and was called "Bao" in ancient times. In the thirteenth year of Jiaqing, he was promoted to the magistrate of Xinyu (now Xinyu, Jiangxi). His official career was not smooth, but in the end he was well-fed and knowledgeable, studying economics and literature. Poetry, calligraphy and painting can be engraved, and its calligraphy is wonderful. It was written by the ancients and was once called steamed stuffed bun. He is very conceited about his calligraphy. I said to myself, "I will learn after I am twenty-six, and I will know after I am forty." "Shen Bo middle-aged book, began in yan, Europe, after moving to Sue, dong. Later, he made great efforts in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and later learned two kings, so it became a unique business. " He thinks he is the first person in the army. But his calligraphy works are not as arrogant as they boast, and his cursive nave is full of flesh and tendons. But his Poems of Grass is very distinctive, and it really feels like a monument to one.
Bao's calligraphy is not first-class, but his calligraphy works left to future generations are first-class. Yi Zhou Shuang Tan is a masterpiece of advocating honesty in the Northern Wei Dynasty. It is one of the classics of epigraphy in Qing Dynasty. There are also works such as Calligraphy in Qing Dynasty and Four Kinds of Wu An.
"Art Boat Double Series", which is not divided into volumes, is one of the "four kinds" of packages. Because it contains composition and writing, it is named "Art Boat Double Department". The Cuilang Pavilion series consists of six volumes, with the first four volumes of papers and the last two volumes of essays. The second volume of On Wu An is also very popular. The first volume is the same as Cui Ting, and the second volume is the book spectrum, correcting mistakes, deleting the book spectrum, seventeen articles, biographies of Deng Lie and miscellaneous works.

In the book
I'm thirty, and I'm fifteen. There are no hidden posts in my home. I have studied popular books for ten years, and I can't write straight. My book is very famous in the village. The great-grandfather of the clan went against the sky with ambition and still studied Tang steles. Yu Cong asked the brushwork and got four volumes of Calligraphy Interpretation. At the beginning of his book, he focused on writing, so he imitated the trend of raising the elbow and stirring the stirrup. As his elbow hung in vain, he was short of breath and could not write. I read several works by Xi backwards. Although I don't study, I will draw seats on the bed with my fingers. Good news, hands gradually settled, pen finally dull. I learned Huai Su's cursive "Thousand Pieces" in order to change its old habits. After three years without income, I abandoned it. Before Jiaqing's winter, I saw Zhai as a city dweller, writing a good book, writing down his brushwork and asking him what to do. Futong presented Dongpo's West Lake poem, saying, "Learning this is mainly for fat, and fat is easy to cover up ugliness." I studied in his words for two months, and the book was forced. Next spring, more than ten kinds of fake ancient posts from Chen Mao will be tamed in Shangqiu this season, especially the Longlan Pavilion in Nantangtuo, Huazan, Luoshen and Daguantuo. I have learned the method of clearing the internal organs, but I asked for it from ancient times. I copied the hard yellow Lanting dozens of times, and even moved its words to Zhu's Nine Palaces. Learn four words every day, and each word is linked to hundreds of books. It must adapt to this. After a hundred days of development, it can be seen that the ancients have attracted great attention and painted in succession, which is quite different from their neighbors. Therefore, it is a trend that after Zhao and Song Dynasties, books are in short supply and scholars are few. Since I am interested in the purpose of beauty, I know that it takes all my strength to stipple my hair as thin as silk, and I began to sigh that it was not a waste of money to lift my elbow ten years ago.
Translation:
I'm fifteen years old, and I don't collect calligraphy posts at home. I have studied secular calligraphy for ten years, and I have been unable to write straight because of my poor handwriting. My great grandfather's ambition violated the secular hobby of learning Tang steles. I followed the calligraphy technique and was awarded four volumes of General Understanding of Calligraphy. His book was the first to focus on writing, so he imitated the strokes of raising the elbow and stirring the stirrup. His elbows are suspended, he is short of breath, his hands are shaking, and he can't write. But turn the brush tube upside down and practice several situations. Although reading is uninterrupted, sleeping and lying down are all directed at the drawing pad. At Jiayin's age, his hand gradually stabilized, but the strokes were immature and dull after all. I learned Huai Su's cursive Qian Wen and tried to change its old habits. After three years of nothing, I gave up. Jiaqing has not yet entered the winter. When he saw Zhai, a county man, writing a book, he loved it, remembered his brushwork and asked him who he had learned. Futong presented Dongpo West Lake Poetry Post, saying: "Learning this post is mainly about being fat, and being fat is easy to cover up ugliness." I listened to him and studied for two months, and my calligraphy was almost the same. The next spring, it came from the calligraphy house, which is a calligraphy learning base. This season, Shangqiu tamed and borrowed ten kinds of ancient posts from Chen Mao, among which the most outstanding ones were Painting Praise and Luoshen copied in the Southern Tang Dynasty and Dragon Pavilion copied in the Daguan period. I know something about my father's calligraphy, but I went to explore the ancients myself. I copied Lanting dozens of times with hard yellow paper, and wrote it with vermilion, which is divided into nine palaces. Learn four words a day and write hundreds of words in a row, and the situation will be completely in line with the original. I copied Lanting's words in the same way for a hundred days, and I saw that the ancients used strokes to draw people, and the stroke order was different from that of people close to people. Therefore, it took Lanting's calligraphy to explore Zan and Luoshen, and it took another hundred days to imitate them, only to see that the calligraphy after Zhao and Song Dynasties was narrow and impatient and lacked gentlemanly demeanor. I tend to be vigorous and beautiful in my heart, and I also know that the fine stippling as fine as silk hair must go all out, so I sigh that learning to lift my elbow in the first ten years has not been in vain.
The Original and Translation of Bao's Double Collection of Art Boat (Excerpt) (3)
Original text:
Continue to travel in Jiangsu and Zhejiang and visit the collectors' old traces. Ren Xuqiu is from Qianren and Wuhu. Ruth borrowed the title of the book and tasted the language: "The ancients used rabbit hair, so the book has a middle line;" Today, wool is used, which is essentially a double hook. I have been here for fifty years before I have three or four ears. " I replied that the book was not good, but I wrote a double hook. Ruth made noodles and all the pictures were underlined with ink. I'm too confident. In the same year, after being painted by Deng Jiao in Huaining, he said, "Calligraphy and painting can be done in a sparse place, but not in a dense place. Always count the white as black, and the strange interest comes out. " According to his theory, the books of the Six Dynasties were textual researched and then combined. However, there is an extra book from the bamboo slips, which is quite nice. Jiazi then studied European and Yan films, with strong momentum and broad spirit. Bing Yinqiu won the Temple Monument in the Southern Song Dynasty and the jujube pavilion post. He made a subtle exploration and found that Yongxing's book came from Daling, and he deeply realized that Daling was different from the right army. On the true grass calligraphy of the right army, there are Chinese characters, which go deep into the corps commander; Da Ling really practiced cursive calligraphy, which led to Qin Zhuan and the successful Prime Minister. Wu Liang's denigration of Sanjiang and Tang Wen's contempt for hungry servants are all talk in a dream, while Mi Lao's "right army containment, big order expansion" is counterproductive. After a year of careful copying, this painting has a center line. Every time you make a book with cooked paper, the ink gradually dries from both sides to the middle line, and it is as fine as silk wool, and the ink color is crystal clear, and the back of the paper is like a needle painting. Claiming to be quite secret in the book.

Walk around Jiangsu and Zhejiang continuously and see the collectors' old ink. Ren Xuqiu met Ruth in Yanghu, a Qian Shangbo. Ruth's title is very prominent She once told me: "The ancients used rabbit hair, so there was a center line for writing. Today, wool is used, and the essence is to form a double hook. I have been studying this for nearly 50 years, and only three or four of the ten have been tested. " I replied that books are not good, but writing often forms a double hook. Ruth did it face to face, and all the strokes lined up like a border. I feel a little confident because of this. This year, he accepted calligraphy in Huaining Deng, saying: "Calligraphy and painting can be in a sparse place, and the secret place can't be ventilated. Always count white as black, and wonderful fun will appear. " His words were confirmed by the books of the Six Dynasties. But my calligraphy comes from Jane Dove, which is more feminine. Jia Zi is twenty years old, so she specializes in European and Yan Tuo films to strengthen the brushwork and ease the brushwork. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Bing Yinqiu, who obtained the temple tablet and jujube pavilion, devoted himself to exploration and learned that Yongxing calligraphy originated from Daling, and he was familiar with the difference between Daling and Youjun calligraphy. As has been discussed, the right army's principles, behaviors, and grass methods all originated from China and went deep into the people. The principle, behavior and cursive calligraphy of Daling originated in Qin Zhuan. It's great to meet the Prime Minister. Liang Wudi's criticism of "Three Rivers' Children" and Tang's ridicule of "Hungry People" are already talking in his sleep, while Mi Lao's "Right Army's brushwork is tight, and the big order's brushwork is good" is the opposite result. After a year of single-minded imitation and study, the strokes have a center line. Every time the paper is cooked to make a book, the ink gradually dries out from both sides to the center line, as fine as silk wool, and the ink color is crystal clear, and the back of the paper looks like a needle painting. I think I have tried my best to keep the calligraphy secret.
