Creative background:
Paintings originated in the Six Dynasties, matured in the Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Song Dynasty, and developed in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, especially in the Qing Dynasty, with diverse styles and a large number. Under the political pressure and cultural autocracy of the Qing government, literati had to escape in the small world of art and express their thoughts. As a result, natural landscapes, flowers and birds, and wild interests often become the objects of literati and painters' entertainment and expression. Scholars or painters in Qing Dynasty often have poems with paintings. This poem was written by Zheng Xie in his later years and inscribed on many of his bamboo and stone paintings. The content and time of the inscription are different, and the words are slightly different. The rock breaking is the rock breaking, the cliff is steep, and the ten thousand blows are ten thousand folds, and the firm is firm. The east, west, north and south winds used to be strong winds in the southeast and northwest. It can be seen that he loves this poem very much. He is often invited to paint it as a poem and give it to his friends as a gift, aiming to express his feelings and express his feelings through things, so he always paints a gourd and writes it freely.
Appreciate:
The phrase "insisting that the green hills are not relaxed, and the roots are in the broken rocks" shows that bamboo is not relaxed at all, and its roots are deeply rooted in the cracks in the rocks, showing the strength and persistence of bamboo. This spirit also inspires people to be like bamboo, not to give up in the face of difficulties and to make unremitting efforts.
The sentence "It is still strong after many trials, and the wind blows in the east, west, north and south" shows the strong quality of bamboo after numerous hardships and blows to the body and bones. It can stand the test of various natural forces without yielding, and this spirit is worth learning and learning from.
