The Charm of Tradition —— Appreciation of Pan Ze's Finger Paintings

Style has always been pursued and advertised by traditional art and culture. In the culture of worshipping elegance, style determines the value of a literary work, and of course it also means at what level a work is recognized and disseminated. The so-called audience in western reception aesthetics, the taste of the audience determines the scope of the work, and the vulgarity and elegance of the work will affect the choice of the receiver. Therefore, from ancient times to the present, "scholar-officials can do anything, but they can't be vulgar and vulgar can't be cured." Huang was a great poet and calligrapher in Song Dynasty, and was recognized by almost all traditional literati. Getting rid of vulgarity and pursuing elegance is the only pursuit of traditional literature and art, which involves the issue of style.
