Wen’s family was originally from Hengyang, Hunan, where his family had established itself shortly after the 10th century. Not until the time of Wen’s great-grandfather, Wen Hui, a military officer, did the family move to the Suzhou area.

He collaborated in the design of the Humble Administrator’s Garden (拙政園), generally considered one of China’s four greatest gardens.

Many paintings depicting the lives of ladies are based on the secret and exquisite courtyard landscape. The women in the courtyard often fold flowers, take a rest, or practice characters, practice piano, and take care of babies. Basho plays an indispensable role as a background in the painting of such figures.

This picture is the work of Wang Xu’s master Li Chenger and his own family. In the picture, the outline of the mountains and stones is purely with a short side-forward pen, and the edge contour adopts the “broken ink method”.

In order to express the sunshine after the snow, the author also slightly dyed the tree head and the tip of the reed with gold dust, and absorbed the painting method of the golden and green landscapes since the Tang Dynasty in the ink and wash, which is a creative practice. This work fully embodies the creative theme of literati painting in the Northern Song Dynasty, which emphasized “there is a picture in a poem, and there is a poem in a picture”. The skillful technique of writing “the difficult scene of poet Mo Qing” is exactly the same as “poem and painting” Model work….
