From: Moonlit Night on the Spring River
About the author: Zhang (about 670-730), a native of Yangzhou (now Yangzhou, Jiangsu), was a poet in the Tang Dynasty. He was a soldier of Cao in Yanzhou. He, Zhang Xu and Bao Rong are also called "four sons of Wuzhong". Moonlit Night on the Spring River is his masterpiece, which is regarded as the first work of Tang poetry, and enjoys the reputation of "one word over two Song Dynasties, and one isolated article covers the whole Tang poetry".
The appreciation of the whole poem closely follows the background of spring, river, flowers, moon and night, with the moon as the main body. "Moon" is a mixture of scenery and scenery in poetry. It beats the pulse of the poet, and it is like a bond of life in the whole poem. It runs through ups and downs, touching the scene, and poetry fluctuates with the birth and death of the moon. The moon went through the process of rising, hanging high, setting west and setting down overnight.
In the moonlight, rivers, beaches, sky, Yuan Ye, maple trees, flower forests, flying frost, white sand, boats, tall buildings, dressing tables, anvil stones, flying geese, diving ichthyosaurs, sleepless women and wandering wanderers form a complete poetic image, showing a picture full of philosophy and life interest.
The color of this picture scroll is light and rich. Although sketched in ink and wash, it is "ink in the colorful", showing colorful artistic effects from the complementary of black and white and the coexistence of reality and reality. It is like an elegant China ink painting, which reflects the beautiful artistic conception of the moonlit night by the river.
