He has used firm yet graceful lines to define the folds of her robes, emphasizing the starting and stopping and twisting and turning of the brush. Using a “squared” brush he has created angular lines imbued with thick, rounded fullness. This painting is from Ch’en’s album Miscellaneous Paintings. Ch’en Hung-shou was a native of Chu-chi, Chekiang. (His style-name was Chang-hou; in his early years his sobriquet was Lotus Novitiate, and, later, Old Lotus. At the fall of the Ming his sobriquets were Hui-ch’ih and Wu-ch’ih.) Ch’en created distinctive paintings of figures, flowers and birds, grasses and insects, and landscapes that are notable for their unique if not startlingly unusual style, a style that was to influence many later artists. &*1.劉芳如,〈陳洪綬仕女〉,收入劉芳如、張華芝主編,《群芳譜 — 女性的形象與才藝》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,2003年初版一刷),頁54。 2.劉芳如,〈明陳洪綬仕女〉,收入國立故宮博物院編輯委員會編,《仕女畫之美》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,1988年四月初版),頁86-87。
