Evaluation of thin gold body

Evonne's Bo Jin Shu is an original creation in the history of calligraphy, as Tao's Book History Society in Ming Dynasty praised: "The brushwork pursues strength, which means nature, so it must be sought." With this achievement alone, Evonne can be listed among the calligraphers in history. Song Zhou Mi's "Miscellaneous Collection of Returned Hearts and Miscellanies of Bianliang" records: "Dingding Monument, thin gold edition. In the old imperial city, when people were building walls and digging, they suddenly saw a huge stone tablet with a double dragon on it and a turtle's head held high, which was very beautiful, just a thin gold tablet. " Yuan Liuguan's comment on fan poetry: "Fan shadow has gone with Luan shadow, leaving a thin book." Liang Qing painted "The Picture of General Xiao Li": "Pucheng Zhou was transported to the same place, and his family kept old paintings. At the beginning of the scroll, there is a nine-character announcement and a thin gold book' Li Zhaodao Haitian Rising Sun', and there is an imperial decree. " Zhao Mengfu commented on Song Huizong's thin golden body: "The so-called thin golden body is beautiful and interesting."

The "thin gold book" comes down in one continuous line with its meticulous flower-and-bird painting. The slender strokes as thin as ribs aggravate the ups and downs at the beginning and the end, and then the structure stretching around the tight knot of Huang Tingjian's middle palace is quite wonderful. This thin character is just suitable for his meticulous painting, which echoes the brush. As an artist with both calligraphy and painting, he made a very important integration of painting and calligraphy, which created a new situation of literati painting and calligraphy, influenced later generations and continued to this day.
