Appreciation of famous paintings.

Appreciation of Mi Youren's "Xiaoxiang Wonders Picture Scroll".

Most of this painting depicts the scene of the distant mountains of Xiaoxiang: the fog is thick, the mountains are looming and undulating under the shroud of the fog, and the mountains seem to be half of the face covered by a shy girl, but the edges and corners of the peaks are relatively clear, so there is a resolute spirit in this mountain, as if a woman full of personality is fighting against fate. From right to left, the scenery gradually approaches, and the outline of the mountain becomes clearer and clearer, and the clouds and smoke floating in the middle of it either leave blank, or slightly rendered, or outline the cloud head and cloud foot, sometimes hidden and sometimes revealed, rich in flow and shadowing.

Moreover, this cloud is visible and invisible from a distance, often exposing the foot of the mountain, showing both the majesty of the mountain and the heaviness of the rain and fog. The trees under the mountain can also be faintly seen, the trunks and branches of the trees are not outlined, but drawn with a thick ink stroke, and the leaves are not double hooks and dots, but changed to large and small horizontal points, which are intertwined with the mountains and rocks, dissolving the mountains and trees into one, adding a sense of chaos. On the far right, there is a nearby hill with a house on it, which, though only a few scribbles, suddenly brings the whole painting to life on the page, adding some vitality to the otherwise dull tones.

These unique painting methods are real in the virtual, profound in simplicity, rich in ambiguity, and vivid in the natural interest of the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River.

From such a long scroll, I don't think the whole painting is like a flat painting spread out horizontally, but like a wrapping scroll. If this is the case, the leftmost view of the picture is the scene in front of the artist, and then to the right, from near to far, the angle should not exceed 180 degrees, because on the far left we see that there is a river below, and if it turns 180 degrees, then there should also be a connecting river on the far right of the scroll.

Zhang Daqian's own random one.

It fully reflects the characteristics of Matisse's brutalist painting style. Although the colors of this painting are extremely heavy and intense, the whole picture is very calm. The colors here are entirely the product of subjective and honest feelings, and are by no means objective and truthful imitations.

It is said that Madame Matisse once posed for him to sketch in black, but what he painted was a portrait of a person in red with extremely bright colors. In this painting, Matisse draws a thick green line on the face of the figure; This line becomes the centerpiece of the painting. Not only is the structure of the entire face clinging to this green line, but many elements of the painting are unified and balanced by this line.

Without this line, the whole picture would seem to be loose and untidy; It is by this green thread that the black eyes and eyebrows do not appear too strong, and the black hair and the green collar are connected, and the face is properly "placed" between the hair and the clothes. This green line also connects the premature firing image of the head with the green background, so that the head will not be separated from the green background by its red and orange blocks, which will destroy the flatness of the picture. To reinforce this sense of flatness, the artist deliberately painted the background on the left side of the picture orange to pull it to the front of the picture, making us feel that there is no distance between the background and the head.

The strong contrast between the red and green colors in the painting produces a dazzling flickering effect, which imbues the picture with a purely painterly charm. Painting a calm portrait can produce such a rich visual effect, and this effect is achieved by carefully managing different color surfaces, which cannot but make people marvel at Matisse's extraordinary ability to control color and brushstroke.
