The most expensive calligraphy works in Song Huizong.
Song Huizong, also known as Evonne, was the eighth emperor of the Song Dynasty and a famous painter and calligrapher in the history of China. Because of its elegant and exquisite paintings, it has always been known as the "Emperor of Paintings through the ages". As an emperor, Song Huizong can be said to be the most artistic emperor among many emperors in the history of China. If you have to compare with one of them, only Li Yu in the late Southern Tang Dynasty can compare. As an emperor, Song Huizong not only has his own unique views on governing the country, but also has unparalleled talent in art, which can be said to be a master figure. According to historical records, Song Huizong was very talented since he was a child, and he liked art very much. He was familiar with poetry books at an early age, good at writing poems and proficient in melody. He also has a special opinion on tea culture, and his talent in painting is even worse. His love and persistence in painting makes people move. Not only is the painting skill exquisite, but also the painting scope is very wide. Song Huizong's paintings of landscapes, animals, flowers, birds and figures are all hands-on, and there is no pressure at all. He is a genius. Unfortunately, as an emperor with rare painting art in history, there are only more than 20 masterpieces handed down by Song Huizong, each of which is valuable, especially the flower-and-bird paintings he painted are exquisite. As soon as this painting appeared in later generations, it directly opened a new era of China's flower-and-bird painting and created the "Xuanheyuan" painting school praised by later generations. One of the paintings named "Sketching Rare Birds" was painted by Song Huizong on a whim, but it sold for 61.71.2000 yuan in later generations. Now this emperor's flower-and-bird painting is treasured in the exhibition hall on the west bank of Shanghai Hailong Art Museum, and there are an endless stream of painting and calligraphy lovers visiting it. Song Huizong's technique, the original thin golden body, reached an unprecedented height. Song Huizong's calligraphy works can be preserved to modern times and become national treasures. Almost every painting was auctioned at sky-high prices. Song Huizong's works have been handed down from generation to generation, and the most sought-after one is the Imperial Eagle Map, which has become a monument in calligraphy and painting. There are countless literati in later generations. I want to see them soon and reach such an artistic peak one day. Cao Xueqin's "Dream of Red Mansions" depicts the imperial eagle, which is also the artistic peak of sacrifice in the Grand View Garden. The famous western painter Lanzi tried to imitate Song Huizong's Eagle Map of the Empire, but he didn't reach the level of Song Huizong.
