's good costume dramas are often a combination of truth and falsehood. Take the recently chased " Tang Dynasty Weird Stories " as an example. The cases and characters may be fictitious, but there are also some that are indeed well-documented. .
Today we will talk about Zhang Xuan and "Shiqiao Tu" repeatedly mentioned in the "Shiqiao Tu" case. Of course, I won't talk about the plot, let's talk about art, hehe.
First of all, Zhang Xuan is a real person, although there is no record in the official history, but there are handed down works. He is a lady painter in Tang Dynasty. Although there is no authentic work handed down, there are copies of the famous Song Dynasty Huizong Huizong's "Spring Tour of Guoguo Lady" and "Danning and Training". Of course,
has a lot of research, the work is not copied by Song Huizong , this is not important, at least Zhang Xuan is a real person.
And whether there is a painting in "Shiqiao Tu", but it may not be true. This painting has not been collected in any description. The only record about this painting is from the Tang Dynasty Duan Chengshi's notebook novel collection "Youyang Zazu" , which are described in this type of novels, they are mostly old stories, but they are stories that they have heard. Of course, the stories that
heard are also true. It just so happens that this is also a story of art collection, so let’s talk about it according to the story. Anyway, collectors like to tell stories.
said that there is a Baoshou Temple in Yishan Square in Chang'an. It used to be the old house of the great eunuch Gao Lishi , and later it was donated to become a temple, and the incense has been very strong.
has an out-of-town official named Li Zhuo, who likes to collect ancient paintings. He went to Chang'an to play. He was an old friend of the monks in the temple. In the warehouse of Baoshou Temple, he found a broken urn with a pile of junk. Something that was rotten, dirty and similar to a quilt turned out to be an ancient painting on closer inspection, so he discussed it with the monk who was watching the warehouse and exchanged something for it.
went back and mounted it. It was indeed a beautiful landscape painting, but it was not signed, and no one knew about the painting, so he took the painting to find Liu Gongquan , the most famous calligrapher and connoisseur of calligraphy and painting in the dynasty.
Everyone knows Liu Gongquan, he was also a master of the generation. He looked at the painting and asked the same question as all treasure appraisers from ancient times to the present, "Where did you get this painting?" The conclusion: "This is Zhang Xuan's famous painting "Stone Bridge". When Zhang Xuan painted this painting, he was a guest of the prince. He once traveled with the prince to Shiqiao Mountain and painted this painting. Later, the prince took the "Stone Bridge". "Dedicated to Xuanzong , which has been collected in the palace. Later, Xuanzong gave this painting to Gao Lishi, and the Baoshou Temple you mentioned is the old house of Gao Lishi."
As for the Shiqiao Mountain in the painting, It is also a mountain with a story.
Shiqiao Mountain is in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, there is a famous allusion "Wang Zhi watching chess", it is about a woodcutter named Wang Zhi in the Western Jin Dynasty, who went up the mountain to chop wood, and saw two boys playing chess and singing, he would He put the axe aside and watched them play chess, and when he picked up the axe and went home, he found that the handle of the axe had been rotten, and it had been decades since he returned home. Because the handle of the axe is also called Ke, the mountain is also called Lanke Mountain.
Later, the story of this painting is also very legendary. The more the monk who sold the painting thought about it, the more uneconomical it became, so he reported it to the government. Li Zhuo owned this famous painting and turned it over within a few days.
By the way, Tang Dynasty Since Li Shimin , he has liked to collect calligraphy and paintings in the folk, which is a tradition of the royal family, so once there is a famous painting, it must be turned over.
Just like that, "Stone Bridge Map" was collected by Emperor Jingzong in Yunshao Court . This Emperor Jingzong ascended the throne at the age of fifteen, and was killed by a minister at the age of eighteen. In the following decades, Huang Chao also scored Chang'an, this "Stone Bridge" has disappeared.
Of course, since "Shiqiao Tu" depicts the landscape of Shiqiao Mountain, and Zhang Xuan likes to paint ladies, then there must be no Nanzhou four sons.
