1, Wang made a fortune, was good at learning, and was studious.
The story recalled by Wang's queen mentioned that he once sold lanterns in a shop, but in the end he liked painting and wanted to practice painting diligently, so he painted on lantern paper and finally angered his boss. When there was no light before, he often borrowed the light from the shop to paint. Therefore, the artistic conception of Wang's paintings cannot be achieved overnight. Finally, I went to Shanghai to learn from the teacher and embarked on the road of painting. At first, his painting style was not popular. He went to Beijing to make a living with a letter of recommendation from his teacher Wu Changshuo. After several twists and turns, its reputation has greatly increased because of its unique painting style.
2. Is there one in Beijing? Erbai? , a Bai Yingnian who died young.
We all know the famous Qi Baishi. He and Wang were both famous figures of Beijing School at that time. Here, I would like to mention Wang Xuetao, who once mentioned in his memoirs that some people thought Bai Meng was aloof, and Qi Baishi once said something similar, only borrowing Wang Xuetao's works. Wang Xuetao is their common student. Therefore, this kind of argument can be seen in Wang Xuetao's works. But when they hear each other, they also respect each other. Qi Baishi once asked his son to learn painting from Wang, but Wang did not refuse. Since Wang died at the age of 46, most of his works are still scattered all over the world, and there is no way to preserve them.
3, eccentric, unsociable
Wang has made great achievements in painting, but he is an unlikable loner in interpersonal communication. He had a tense relationship with Qi Baishi and once satirized the elders for the New Year. He also rejected the painter Xu Beihong. Many people don't like him because he will call names after drinking. This is a fact that many people can't stand at present. So not many people learn painting from him, and only a few can learn the essence in the end. Because of this personality, it is difficult to communicate and learn from each other.
So the painter is famous because of his works and his own temperament. Genius will eventually live in history, and its works will also undergo the baptism of history and be finally revealed by the world. There are still many good things worth exploring in the world.
