《竹鹤双清图》轴,明,边景昭、王绂绘,绢本,设色,纵109cm,横44.6cm。
画面左上款署:“陇西边景昭同孟端王中书为诚斋写竹鹤双清图。”钤“怡情动植”、“边氏文进”印。另有清乾隆御题诗一首。裱边四周有清代文臣钱陈群、董邦达、汪由敦等五家题记。
画面描绘两只仙鹤悠然漫步于竹林之中。此图为边景昭与王绂二人合作,边景昭画鹤,王绂画竹。边景昭是明代宫廷花鸟画家的代表人物,其画风继承了宋代“院体”工整富丽的风格,并在一定程度上吸收了文人画的特点。王绂是明代前期的画竹名家,他的墨竹延续了北宋文同等人的传统,在竹画的历史上有着承前启后的重要作用。本幅作品中边景昭所画的仙鹤造型优美,气度娴雅,笔墨简放,工细而不拘谨,着色淡雅,与王绂清润秀挺的墨竹格调统一,作品给人以清新出尘之感,是职业画家与文人画家配合默契的成功之作。
--------Introduction in English--------
"Bamboo Crane Double Qing Picture" axis, Ming Dynasty, Bian Jingzhao, Wang Qiu Painting, silk, color, 109 cm vertical, 44.6 cm horizontal.
On the left side of the picture, the superintendent said, "Jingzhao and Wang Zhongshu of Mengduan on the west side of Longxi write a picture of bamboo cranes and two clear-cut bamboo cranes for Chengzhai." Jun's "Happy and Moving Planting" and "Bian's Wenjin" seals. Another imperial poem written by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. There are five inscriptions of Qing Dynasty Wenchen Qian, Chen Qun, Dong Bangda and Wang Youdun.
The picture depicts two cranes walking leisurely in the bamboo forest. This picture shows Bian Jingzhao cooperating with Wang Qiao. Bian Jingzhao paints cranes and Wang Qiao paints bamboo. Bian Jingzhao is a representative of the Ming Dynasty Palace Flower and bird painters, whose painting style inherited the Song Dynasty "courtyard body" neat and beautiful style, and to a certain extent absorbed the characteristics of literati painting. Wang Yu was a famous bamboo painter in the early Ming Dynasty. His ink and bamboo continued the tradition of literary colleagues in the Northern Song Dynasty and played an important role in the history of bamboo painting. The crane painted by Bian Jingzhao in this work is graceful in shape, elegant in demeanour, simple in brush and ink, meticulous and unrestrained in work, elegant in colour, and unified with Wang Yun's elegant ink and bamboo style. The work gives people a sense of fresh and dusty, which is a successful work of professional painters and literati painters.
