Who repeatedly emphasized the vivid portrayal in China's figure painting?

Gu Kaizhi repeatedly emphasized the vivid portrayal in China's figure paintings.

China's figure painting is one of the important types of traditional painting in China, which mainly shows the characters and their inner spirit, thoughts and emotions. In the creation of China's figure painting, the most important principle is "vivid with form".

This principle can be traced back to Gu Kaizhi, a great painter in Tang Dynasty. Gu Kaizhi is a very famous painter in the history of our country. He was a master of figure painting in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the founder of figure painting in the Tang Dynasty.

When he created figure paintings, he paid great attention to the effect of unity of form and spirit, and put forward the creative ideas of "both form and spirit" and "deep affection between spirit and likeness", emphasizing the higher requirements for the characters in the picture, but at the same time paying great attention to the expression of the inner thoughts and feelings of the characters in the picture.

With the passage of time, the principle of "vivid with form" has been adopted by more and more painters. Tang Bohu in the Ming Dynasty said: "A painter should look better than a real person, not only to meet the requirements of similar appearance, but also to make the behavior, personality and temperament of the characters be truly and accurately expressed."

His insistence on this principle also made him one of the representatives of figure painting in China. In addition, Chen Hongshou, a painter in Qing Dynasty, also attached great importance to "writing vivid portraits with shapes".

He believes that when creating figure paintings, we should pay special attention to the three-dimensional sense and perspective of the characters, and pay more attention to the expression of their emotions and temperament. In his masterpiece Twelve Hairpins, he showed every woman's personality characteristics incisively and vividly, and also accurately portrayed every woman's different figure and facial features in form.

Through the above introduction, we can find that the principle of "vivid with form" was not put forward by a specific painter, but experienced a long-term development process and was adopted and carried forward by more and more painters.

It is one of the most basic and important creative principles in China's figure painting, which can help the painter accurately express the image characteristics, emotions and temperament of the characters, thus making the picture more artistic and vital.

China figure painting is the most important branch of China painting, which has very rich historical and cultural connotations. From ancient rubbings to modern oil paintings, China figure painting has experienced thousands of years of development, including many famous schools and traditional techniques.

One of the main characteristics of China's figure painting is to emphasize the representation and shaping of characters. Painters in China pay attention to grasping the characters, and express their personalities and identities by expressing their demeanor, posture, clothes and surrounding environment. In addition, China's figure painting also attaches great importance to using images to reflect the theme, so metaphors, metaphors and implications are widely used.

In the history of figure painting in China, one of the most famous schools is landscape figure painting. This style of painting usually puts the characters between the vast mountains and rivers, forming a magnificent landscape effect, but also full of poetic and philosophical thinking.

Modern oil painting pays more attention to the realism and expression of characters, especially the early schools of realism and social realism, which directly reflect the social situation and people's life at that time.

China's figure painting technique also has its own uniqueness. Traditional painters in China usually paint with ink. This technique pays attention to the use of ink color and lines, and expresses the emotions and forms of characters through delicate strokes such as light ink, thick ink and virtual reality.

In modern times, with the progress of science and technology and the changes of society, many different techniques such as oil painting, printmaking and watercolor painting were gradually applied to figure painting in China.

In a word, China's figure painting is an indispensable part of China's painting. It has a very profound cultural and historical connotation and has become an important medium for cultural inheritance and artistic expression in myths and legends, historical stories and modern life.
