Born of Gautama Buddha (also known as the picture of the heavenly king sending his son and the picture of the birth of Sakyamuni) is a paper-based ink brush stroke created by Wu Daozi in the Tang Dynasty according to the Buddhist scripture Ruiying Benqi Jing, which is a copy of the Song Dynasty. The work is now in the Osaka Municipal Art Museum, Japan.
The whole painting is divided into three parts: the first part depicts a king sitting in the middle, surrounded by a civilian with a rib, a fairy with an inkstone, a warrior with a sword, facing the dragon surrendered by Er Shen, fighting the snake.
In the second paragraph, a four-armed man sits on a stone with his hair hanging over his head and a flame burning behind him. The statue has a strange and magnificent shape, and on the left and right sides are the goddess holding a bottle of stove. The third paragraph, the picture of Muny's birth, tells the story of the birth of the son of the Indian Sudoku King. From this picture, we can see that when Shi Muny was born, his father took him to the temple to meet the god of freedom.
Extended data:
Wu Daozi (about 680-759), also known as Daoxuan, was a famous painter in the Tang Dynasty, and his painting history was regarded as a saint. Han nationality, from Yangzhai (now Yuzhou, Henan). Born around 680 AD (the first year of Yonglong), he died around 758 AD (the first year of Gan Yuan). Lonely and poor, you will have a painting name when you are young. He used to be the county commandant of Qiu Yan (now Ziyang), and soon resigned. After that, he settled in Luoyang and engaged in mural creation.
During the Kaiyuan period, he was called to the DPRK for his good painting, and successively served as a doctor, an internal teacher and Wang You. He studied calligraphy with Zhang Xu and He, watched sword dancing and experienced the skill of using a pen. He is good at Buddhism, ghosts and gods, figures, landscapes, animals, plants, pavilions and so on. , especially good at Buddhism and figures, and good at mural creation.
Daozi painted figures, his brushwork turned round, and his clothes fluttered with the wind. Later generations called this style "Five Dynasties Party Style". Similar styles can be seen in the Tang and Song murals in Dunhuang. Similar to Wu Daozi's style, it is also reflected in techniques such as line drawing and blooming.
The orchid paintings in Dunhuang murals are also in the same strain as Wu Daozi's line drawing stunt. The shapes depicted in the popular orchid paintings in the Tang Dynasty are soft outside and rigid inside, thick and strong, delicate and euphemistic.
In the history of painting, the evaluation of Wu Daozi's murals is that "the characters have eight sides and are commercial activities." "The portrait of rice is as lifelike as plastic." Many scholars admire Wu Daozi's painting: "The wind and cloud will endanger people, and ghosts and gods will go out of the wall." . Such images can be seen everywhere in Dunhuang murals.
The reason why Daozi has made such outstanding achievements in painting art is that he can innovate. He is good at absorbing the essence from complex object forms, generalizing concave and convex surfaces and yin and yang surfaces into irreducible "lines", and combining with the internal movement of objects, forming the organizational law of lines.
Such as the height, edge, depth, inclination, rolling, folding, floating and lifting posture of clothing lines, the organization based on lines completely describes the character of objects. This line has strict requirements, each line meets the requirements of vivid modeling, each line is full of rhythmic beauty, and it is a creative line that combines the achievements of the previous generation.
