He accepted an honorary academic title, but refused that of a court painter. After the fall of the Ming dynasty, he was associated with loyalist scholars and artists, later becoming a Buddhist monk. He is noted for his painting of stern and stocky figures, birds-and-flowers, as well as landscapes, possessing a distinct personal flavor using curving yet tough brushstrokes. A strange rock sits at the foot of a pine tree. Two immortal maidens stand under a branch. The handling of brush and color is very idiosyncratic, with a certain air of archaic eccentricity. &*1.王耀庭,〈陳洪綬仙人獻壽圖〉,收入王耀庭、童文娥編,《長生的世界:道教繪畫特展圖錄》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,1996年初版),頁81。 2.〈明陳洪綬仙人獻壽圖〉,收入國立故宮博物院編,《晚明變形主義畫家作品展》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,1977年九月初版),頁448。
