Who is the originator of China's painting?
In the history of world art, Chinese painting is unique. The origin of China's painting can be traced back to primitive society, leaving traces of painting on various patterns and patterns on pottery, but painting in the modern sense is not these patterns and patterns. So, who was the ancestor of Chinese painting? When did Chinese painting originate? There are many legends about this issue in China, and there are also different opinions in ancient books.

Bai Fuqi painted: Bai Fuqi is the legendary Shennong minister. "Painting begins with painting" said: "Emperor Shennong ordered his minister Bai Fuzhen to seize the land and die, and he died by passing through the waterway." In fact, Bai Fu painting is a topographic map, so the ancients rarely mentioned this when discussing the origin of topographic maps. There is no reliable basis for saying that "painting history meets women"

Ying Shao, a descendant, wrote: In the era of the Yellow Emperor, it was said that there were two people, Shencha (who read the sacred tree) and Lei (who read the jade law), who could catch ghosts under the peach tree in Dushuo Mountain, and then tried them out. If you find unscrupulous ghosts, tie them up with straw ropes and take them to the mountains to feed the tigers. The Yellow Emperor sent them to control demons and put a board made of a big machine tree on the door. The practice of the Yellow Emperor became a custom in the Han Dynasty. On New Year's Eve, the county yamen was covered with peaches, although people tied them with ropes and hung them on the doors, which were painted with tigers to prevent the so-called evil spirits. "Fish Dragon River Map" said: "The Yellow Emperor took Heng Yue as the deputy, built a buried hill, and the emperor built a mountain and bowed his head, thinking that the five mountains were really shaped." This can only be regarded as a topographic map.

"Legend of Zhoudao condensed mountain" says: the ancient man, the king of Xi family, is also on earth. He looked up at the sky and bowed his head, and the culture of birds and beasts was suitable for the land; Close to the body, far away, so I began to gossip, and literary works were born. It has always been believed that Fu's gossip is pictographic, and its original meaning lies in graphics. Fu Guantian painted "dry" and "Kun" on the ground. Therefore, the gossip painted by Fuxi is China's most primitive painting. To be fair, gossip is like painting. Gossip is the earliest writing in China, and it is nonsense.

So who is the originator of China's painting? Lala Art Museum is willing to pursue the same origin with collectors. The Source of Painting: The Yellow Emperor's Theory. "Fish Dragon River Map" said: "The Yellow Emperor painted a picture of Chiyou to dominate the world." These can be said to be paintings. "The Seven Signs of Cloud" further states: "The Yellow Emperor made the buried hill the vice of Heng Yue, and the emperor made mountains and bowed to write statues, thinking that the five mountains were really shaped." These two can only be regarded as topographic maps.

Fu began to paint. "The Book of Changes Uploads" says: "Living in Fu Wang is in the world, looking up at the sky, overlooking the law, watching birds and beasts, and being in the right place; Close to the body, away from everything. So I started gossip, and the words were born. " Ancient and modern scholars believe that the significance of Fu pictographs lies in graphics, because they are pictographs. Fu drew a "dry" according to the observed astronomical phenomena, and according to the situation of the earth, he drew a "Kun" and so on. Therefore, Fu's "Gossip" is China's most original painting.

Painting originated from Shi Huang Lun. Qin Shihuang was the minister of the Yellow Emperor. Shan Li's "Selected Works" notes: "Stone says:' Stone and yellow paint." Zhong Song said:' The Imperial Master is the minister of the Yellow Emperor; A painting is an image of a painting. "Seven Signs of Yun Qi" said: "The Yellow Emperor began to paint when he had a minister and a history emperor." Say it more directly. In the Painting History Society, the official of the Yellow Emperor, Shi Huang, "looks like heaven and earth, and is good at nature", which means "good at turtles", and they all paint. Cang Xie, another minister of the Yellow Emperor, wrote "the shapes of fish, dragons, turtles and birds", which spread to Qin Shihuang.

"Painting began with Cang Xie's theory". Not only calligraphy but also painting originated in Cang Xie. The homology between calligraphy and painting is affirmed by most domestic scholars. Zhu Derun's Tales and Restaurants said: "Calligraphy and painting are the same in body but different in language ... all kinds are like their physical shapes, but they are different. I used to think that in ancient times, there were many people who created characters, and characters were invented by everyone. Cang Xie's contribution is just to sort them out.

A convincing archaeological fact is that some descriptive symbols were found on pottery unearthed in Banpo, Xi 'an, with simple strokes, about 6000 years ago, 1000 years earlier than that of Cangjie. In addition to Cang Xie, there are legendary Sui Shu of Shennong, Qu Shu of Huangdi, Wen Gu of Zhu Rong, He Fengshu of Shaowu, He Doushu of Cao Yang, He of Cao Xin, Gui Shu of Emperor Yao and Zhu Jiuding of Dayu. This can be said to have different reasons. Liberal arts students have studied this for more than 2000 years and expressed various opinions, but no one can overwhelm each other and become an authority.

However, no matter what the truth of "Cang Xie wrote a book", whether it is serious historical facts or beautiful legends, it reflects people's love for Chinese characters and affirms the inheritance of the long-standing culture of the Chinese nation. It is precisely because of people's warm gratitude and admiration for those ancestors who made words that those touching legends can last forever.
