Among the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, many people had a keen interest in calligraphy creation. Among them, the three emperors Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong had the best calligraphy.
The calligraphy works of many Qing emperors in the collection of the Shenyang Palace Museum are a feast for future generations.
There were 12 emperors in the Qing Dynasty. The Shenyang Imperial Palace was not only the palace used by the three emperors Nurhachi, Huang Taiji, and Shunzhi before the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass, but also the residence where the four emperors of Kangxi, Qianlong, Jiaqing and Daoguang visited the ancestors after the Qing entered the Pass. It is also an important place for the collection of royal treasures.
In the Qing Dynasty, there used to be nearly 200,000 Qing imperial articles and secret books of the inner government, which were transferred from Beijing for storage. The Shenyang Imperial Palace was one of the three imperial treasure houses of the Qing Dynasty that was as famous as the Beijing Palace and the Rehe Palace.
Li Shengneng, the curator of the Shenyang Palace Museum, said that the emperors of the Qing Dynasty have always attached great importance to the study and creation of calligraphy and calligraphy. Under the background of Han culture, diligent practice of calligraphy and painting has become a court fashion, especially for the royal family.
The Qing Dynasty emperors' paintings and calligraphy have their own styles and distinctive features, and their surviving works are relatively rich. They are one of the important collections of the Shenyang Imperial Palace.
Li Shengneng said that Emperor Kangxi was good at calligraphy and painting.
But now his paintings are extremely rare, and the number of calligraphy works in the world is not counted.
The Shenyang Palace Museum's "Qing Xuan Ye Lin Dong Qichang's Poems Scroll" is sprinkled with gold and wax paper.
The top right quoted a seal in the white script "Yuan Jian Zhai" with a long circle seal, and wrote a poem. The whole poem reads: "The Kirin Pavilion of this generation, who is the first contributor. The king is a master of martial arts, and he must be a hero." The post of the poem is signed "Pro. "Dong Qichang", "Kangxi Chenhan" and "Euphemum Qingyan" in the seal script Zhu Wen under the seal.
Emperor Kangxi once said: "I have been in the pool since I was a child, and I wrote more than a thousand characters every day, without interruption. The ink and stone carvings of ancient celebrities are all carefully copied. They have been accumulated for more than 30 years. The reality is good." Kangxi was particularly good at the calligraphy of Dong Qichang in the Ming Dynasty, so the characters were also taken from Dong Shu and from various schools, and directly influenced and led the trend of the calligraphy at that time, so that the calligraphy of the early Qing Dynasty was filled with the lingering charm of the Dong school.
"Emperor Yongzheng was educated in Han culture since he was a child, and his calligraphy followed his father Kangxi, Zhao Mengfu and Dong Qichang, using running script and cursive script as the best. The characters are like his own, smooth and beautiful, and magnificent, demonstrating the mighty power of a generation of iron-fisted emperors." Li Shengneng said.
The calligraphy works of Emperor Yongzheng are less handed down, and the "Ping An Ruyi Axis" in the Shenyang Palace Museum is the most auspicious work in the emperor's calligraphy.
In addition, the "Yinzhen Cursive Script Wushen New Year's Eve Shou-Sui Poem Scroll" in the Shenyang Palace Museum is also the work of Emperor Yongzheng.
The whole poem reads: "Send La to build a new festival, the year is over half a hundred years ago. Dao heart just meets, and people want to go against the time. Baoding burns incense mist, Yao stage Ruixueyu. I believe that there is no good fortune, and there is a lot of snow." At the end of the poem, the section "Yongzheng Wushen New Year's Eve Watching the Year", the second seal "Yongzheng Chenhan" and "Chaogan sunset".
Introduced the "Difficult for the Lord" Double Dragon Seal.
Li Shengneng said that the calligraphy and painting of Emperor Qianlong accounted for the largest number of calligraphy and calligraphy of emperors in the Qing Dynasty, especially the number of calligraphy.
In addition to a large number of impromptu poems and scrolls of ancient works, there are even countless couplets and plaques.
His calligraphy is mainly based on Zhao Mengfu's beauty and magnificence, and it has influenced and promoted the aesthetic orientation of the entire court calligraphy.
