The simple drawings of the 480 Temples in the Southern Dynasties and the towers in the mist and rain are as follows:
Open Photoshop, draw rain clouds on the canvas, and draw the rainy environment.
Draw the horizon downward, as well as the temples and towers in the distance.
Finally, draw the plants and buildings in the close-up, and you can complete the theme paintings of as many buildings as mist and rain.
It comes from "Jiangnan Spring" by Du Mu in the Tang Dynasty.
Thousands of miles away, the orioles are singing, the green is reflected in red, and the wine flags are blowing in the mountains and rivers of water.
There are four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasties, and many towers are in the mist.
This is a seven-character quatrain describing the scenery of Jiangnan. "When the sun rises, the flowers on the river are as red as fire, and when spring comes, the river is as green as blue." Bai Juyi has painted gorgeous pictures, but they are only macroscopic, while Du Mu's "Jiangnan Spring" is relatively more specific and seems to make people visit. Several scenic spots made the impression even more profound.
In this poem, Du Mu not only depicts the bright spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, but also reproduces the misty and rainy terrace scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, making the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River more magical and confusing, and has a special interest. "Thousands of miles away, the orioles are singing, the greenery is reflected in red, and the water village, mountains and mountains are filled with wine and flags." First of all, the poet describes the world of red flowers and green willows in the south of the Yangtze River.
There are singing and dancing birds everywhere, green trees and red flowers everywhere; the villages in Dishui, the city walls nestled against the mountains, and especially the wine flags fluttering in the wind. "Thousands of Miles" means that the whole Jiangnan is written, but the whole is expressed through specific images.
“There are four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasties, and there are so many towers in the mist and rain.” There are temples that are an important part of the transition to the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, adding a sense of vicissitudes, and there are many Buddhist relics left over from the Southern Dynasties. The buildings are looming in the spring breeze and rain, adding to the confusing beauty.
The poet did not say "four hundred and eighty temples in the North Dynasty" here, but said "four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasty", which obviously has a different meaning.
The ruler of the Southern Dynasties, Chengfo, wasted time on the people and money, and built a large number of temples. The "Southern History·Guo Zushen Biography" said: "The emperor of the time greatly promoted the interpretation of the canon and changed the customs. Therefore, Zu Shenyou talked about his affairs. Tiao thought that there were more than 500 Buddhist temples in the capital, which were extremely magnificent, with more than 100,000 monks and nuns, and rich assets. The counties where they were located were unspeakable."
According to this, Du Mu said, "There are 480 temples." "Obviously said less. Nowadays, the "Four Hundred and Eighty Temples of the Southern Dynasties" have become historical relics and an integral part of the wonderful scenery of Jiangnan.
