Origin: Yang Wanli's "Seeing Lin Zifang at Dawn in Jingci Temple" in the Southern Song Dynasty: "After all, the scenery of the West Lake is different from that at four o'clock in June. The next day, the lotus leaf is infinitely blue, and the lotus color is different. "
The Xizi Lake in June is really special and beautiful, which is very different from other seasons. The green lotus leaves are endless, the red sun and lotus flowers set each other off, and the color is particularly bright and charming red.
Appreciation of seeing Lin Zifang off in Jingci Temple, Chu Xiao
In "Seeing Lin Zifang at Dawn in Jingci Temple", the poet painted a bright picture with a sentence full of strong color contrast: "There are infinite lotus leaves in the sky, and the lotus flowers reflect different colors in the sun." These two sentences specifically describe "after all" different landscape pictures.
The lotus leaf extending to the end of the lake blends with the blue sky, creating an "infinite" artistic space and drawing endless blue; On this blue background, the lotus reflected by the sun is lit, so beautiful and bright.
"Infinitely blue" lotus leaves in the sky and lotus flowers reflecting "different colors of red" in the sun can be seen not only in spring, autumn and winter, but also in the most vigorous summer of mid-June. The poet captured the unique scenery of this midsummer and summed it up very aptly.
