Chapter 1623: The Proverbs of Female History
After a short break, the fifth game of horse racing began.
"In the fifth round of the treasure battle, it was still Mr. Yoshida Ohno who took the lead in revealing the treasure!"
The host reported behind the scenes, and three beauties walked out of the passage.
Two people escorted the treasure cart, and the one in front was a tall beauty wearing a modern evening dress.
This woman made a dazzling appearance and caused another sensation in the audience.
"Hey, I know her!"
"I really know her!"
"Shut up!"
"This is Junko Harada, the great singer of the island country, we all know her!"
"This is my idol!"
"To see a real person today, it's not worth the high price we paid to come to the site."
"Junko Junko I love you!"
"Junko Junko, you are so beautiful"
Harada Junko seemed to enjoy this atmosphere very much, waving to the audience as she walked.
Such interaction caused another burst of cheers.
When he came to the stage, he handed over to Yoshida Ohno and stepped aside. Yoshida opened the big red cloth, and a box 80 centimeters long and 40 centimeters wide appeared in front of everyone.
The box was opened, and inside was an object wrapped in high-density foam.
Yoshida Ohno put it on the treasure-fighting platform and carefully unpacked it.
As Yoshida Ohno dismantled it, a corner of a delicate frame appeared on the big screen.
"Hiss——"
"Silk!"
“No wonder it’s framed.”
"It's interesting!" said Fatty Wang.
Yoshida continued to dismantle it, and a corner of the picture came into view.
"It's still coloring on silk, awesome!"
"The Yoshida family is indeed well-deserved, and they really have some good things!"
"Um?"
"this?"
"His!"
"this
,This is."
"OMG!"
"This is the "Picture of Admonitions of Women's History"."
Weng——
Seeing part of the picture, the veterans in the front row couldn't help but stand up.
My head was buzzing, and everyone was feeling bad.
Not to mention them, even the lips of Guan Haishan and Wang Zhenbang on the stage trembled.
Lu Fei came to the referee's seat and frowned when he saw the scene in front of him.
That's right!
The picture in front of me is part of "The Picture of Admonitions of Women's History"!
Although it is only partial, it is enough to shock the knowledgeable people.
Because this painting is so famous.
It is famous not only because the author of this picture is Gu Kaizhi, the first painter in ancient times, but also because it has an extremely complicated historical background.
During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Confucianism was severely impacted, and the "supremacy" of Confucianism came to an end.
The popularity of Lao-Zhuang's theory, the translation of Buddhist scriptures, the development of Taoism, and the prevalence of free talk formed an era of extreme spiritual freedom, liberation, wisdom, and enthusiasm.
First, the aesthetic culture of this period was in a transitional state, with dual forms, showing the typical characteristics of the historical transition stage.
Second, the duality and transitional nature of this aesthetic form is a tortuous reflection of the rich connotation of the era theme of "self-transcendence" that gradually unfolded during the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
During this period, there was also a major change in the character and behavior of people, that is, the emphasis was shifted from the investigation of people's inner virtues to the emphasis on grasping people's demeanor, demeanor, and appearance.
Influenced by figures and objects, figure paintings in the Wei and Jin Dynasties showed unprecedented characteristics.
Figure paintings before the Wei and Jin Dynasties were mostly used for burial needs or
Political and religious needs do not pay much attention to the art of painting itself, let alone aesthetic needs.
Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, many outstanding painters have emerged, such as Gu Kaizhi, Lu Tanwei and so on, who have injected new vitality into the Chinese painting world.
The themes of figure paintings also became more abundant during this period. In addition to following the major themes since the Qin and Han Dynasties, Buddhist story themes and themes of literati and officials appeared.
Such as portraits of scholar-officials, portraits of scholar-officials' life styles, and paintings of ladies, that is, paintings of female themes.
During this period, women began to attract the attention of the people, and literary works depicting women gradually increased. Paintings also began to pay attention to female beauty, appreciate female beauty, and imitate female beauty in life.
"Nv Shi Zhen" is a poem written by Zhang Hua in the Western Jin Dynasty to satirize and admonish Empress Jia.
Jia's wife, named Nanfeng, was the daughter of Jia Chong, who had made great contributions to the establishment of the Jin Dynasty for the Sima family. ??
She was canonized as a princess when Sima Zhong, Emperor Hui of Jin Dynasty, was the crown prince.
Empress Jia was jealous, cruel, greedy and violent.
After Sima Zhong proclaimed himself emperor, he named her queen, and his ambition to monopolize power was even more exposed.
In order to seize power, she coerced Emperor Hui and issued an edict to kill thousands of her relatives, Yang Jun, who was assisting the government at the time, and his accomplices, in order to remove the obstacles to her dictatorship, and then monopolized power for eight or nine years.
Zhang Hua, courtesy name Maoxian, was a minister and writer of the Western Jin Dynasty.
He was praised by people at the time for his erudition, eloquence and gorgeous rhetoric.
Empress Jia valued Zhang Hua's talent and learning, entrusted him with important responsibilities and showed special respect to him.
At that time, Zhang Hua saw that Empress Jia was monopolizing power and had already predicted that the future was not good.
Based on the etiquette and laws of the feudal society at that time that favored boys over girls and promoted women's so-called virtuous behavior, she wrote "The Proverbs of Women's History", which was used to satirize the empress Jia and persuade the concubines to cultivate their moral character and establish noble moral qualities.
This is the first epic work written with women as the theme.
It plays a vital role in the long process of building society.
"Pictures of Proverbs of Women's History" is an illustrated scroll painted by Gu Kaizhi based on Zhang Hua's "Proverbs of Women's History".
This picture was originally kept by the Qing government. During the Gengzi Campaign in 1900 AD, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces entered Tiandu City and were plundered by the British army.
Due to poor storage, the "Picture of Admonitions of Women's History" was cut in half.
There are only nine sections left, which are collected in the British Museum.
However, in the 1990s, experts verified that the British Museum's nine-part "Proverbs of Women's History" was a Tang Dynasty copy.
As for where Gu Kaizhi's authentic works are, no one knows.
In addition to the nine sections in the British Museum, the Gubo also has a complete set of copy works from the Song Dynasty edition, which makes up for the missing gaps in the first three sections.
The picture in the frame in front of me is the first two paragraphs of "The Picture of Women's History".
The first section depicts Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty leading his palace people to watch the beast fight in a tiger enclosure, with beauties from the harem present.
A black bear suddenly jumped out of the fence and approached Emperor Yuan of Han Dynasty. Feng Jieyu stepped forward to protect the emperor.
In the scroll, Feng Jieyu wears a long belted coat. Although Pinting is slender, she shows no fear when facing the black bear running towards her, and her fearless spirit in the face of danger is outstanding.
Although the two warriors were holding weapons, one was shouting loudly, and the other was stabbing the black bear hard.
But the look of panic on her face was in sharp contrast to Feng Jieyu's head held high.
It more prominently shows Feng Jieyu's bravery and the panic expression of other palace ladies.
In this paragraph, the author fully and vividly expresses the different images and personalities of the characters.
In this paragraph, there are two interpolated mottos: "Ban Jie has words to guard against the slightest and the far-sighted."
"Speaking of good words...doing the same thing with doubts."
And there are two super awesome bell seals.
One side belongs to the painting sage Wu Daozi, and the other side belongs to the famous teacher Li Tang of the Song Dynasty.
