Wang Wei, a painting of ancient poetry.

The content of an ancient poem painted by Wang Wei is: looking at the mountains from a distance and listening to the water silently. Spring has passed, but there are still many flowers and flowers. People go nearby, but the birds are still not disturbed.

As follows:

1. Introduction

Painting is a five-character quatrain created by an anonymous poet (on Wang Wei in Tang Dynasty or Zen master in Southern Song Dynasty). This poem describes the natural scenery, but praises a painting. The first two sentences are written about beautiful scenery and silent running water; The last two sentences describe that flowers bloom in four seasons, and birds are not afraid of people.

The four poems constitute a complete picture of landscape flowers and birds. The whole poem is neat in antithesis, especially the use of many groups of antonyms in the poem, which makes it clear in rhythm, straightforward, full of charm and easy to read.

In particular, several groups of antonyms are used: near and far, being and not, coming and going, in order to increase the tension, three-dimensional sense and rhythm of poetry content, which has received good artistic effects.

2. Creative background

This poem is the poet's praise for painting. There are different opinions about the author of this poem. It is said that it was written by Wang Wei in the Tang Dynasty, but there is no such poem in Wang Wei's works or the whole Tang poetry.

First, it was originally part of the ode poem written by the Buddhist monk Zen master in the Southern Song Dynasty to annotate the Buddhist classic "Diamond Sutra"; When it is said that it was written by an anonymous person in the Song Dynasty, for example, when the Chinese textbooks for primary schools in Shanghai are included, the author column is "anonymous person in the Song Dynasty".

3. Literature appreciation

This poem describes the characteristics of a landscape flower-and-bird painting. Everything on the screen is colored and static, there will be no activity and no noise. This poem is accurate and interesting.

First of all, this poem describes the image on the screen very skillfully with simple words. The third word of each poem is mountain, water, flower and bird in turn. The green hills are towering, the flowing water is gurgling, the flowers are in full bloom and the birds are dancing, which constitutes a prosperous and beautiful overall realm.

Spring has passed, but there are still many flowers and flowers. People go nearby, but the birds are still not disturbed. It is said that although the flowers bloom in that most beautiful season, they will float away after burning to the most beautiful extreme, and only in the painting, the flowers are beautiful and don't thank, and the birds in the painting are always so lovely and moving. The painting in the poem seems to represent a dream, a dream that can be seen but cannot be realized.
