During the reign of Zheng Dehong in Ming Dynasty, Shu Su Tie was collected by Shen Zhou's good friend Wang Zongdao. In August of the first year, at the request of the king, Shen Zhou wrote an postscript for Shu Su Tie to show his praise:
Shen Zhou, a famous painter in Ming Dynasty, was the pioneer of literati painting of the "Five Schools". His calligraphy is set in the Yellow Valley, and he also has high attainments. It is also called "Ming Sijia" with Wen Zhiming, Tang Yin and Chou Ying.
Master of Chinese painting, kung fu is naturally good. Among the "Four Schools", Wen Zhiming and Tang Yin have made great achievements in calligraphy. Personally, they prefer Wen Zhiming. Shen Zhou's "Song Chuang Gao Shi" hit a hammer on the vertical axis of 20 10, which fetched a high price of152.3 billion yuan, reflecting the artistic achievements of Wu Pai painters from one side.
Shen Zhou began to draw at the age of 40, and gradually became better and better. At the age of 80, his painting style pays attention to "momentum", which seems a bit "inconsistent" in his creative years. Unlike most artists, the older they get, the more peaceful they are. This is the difference between Shen Zhou and others.
I wrote an article and suddenly heard that I had something to ask for, so I had to stop writing, but it was only a few words.
This poem "Ode to Luo Shen" was written by Zhao Mengfu at the age of 47. It is full of charm, rigorous structure and excellent brushwork. It should be the treasure of Taoist Xue in Song Dynasty. However, when writing, I abandoned the rough movements and merged into Wen Zhiming's "thin and energetic" posture, which was to my liking.
