Opposite each leaf is a eulogy by the high official Ku K’o-hsüeh (?-1560), who served as Minister of Rites in the Chia-ching era. Ku also quoted from histories and ancient texts in his inscriptions. The strokes and colors as well as the lines and coloring of the figures, buildings, and background in these leaves are quite fine. The compositions are simple and clearly convey the contents of the stories. Ch’iu Ying, a native of T’ai-ch’ang in Kiangsu, originally was a lacquer craftsman who later studied painting from Chou Ch’en. He excelled in painting figural, landscape, and narrative themes. &*仇英(約一四九四-一五五二年),字實父,號十洲,太倉人(今江蘇蘇州)。初為漆工,長於彩繪棟宇,後來改事畫藝。被譽為明代四大家之一。 本冊共二十幅,分別描繪伏羲至宋仁宗等名賢、帝王的事蹟,對幅並有顧可學(?-一五六○)題記。應是仇英應顧氏請託而繪,用以進獻朝廷,求得仕進。全冊均落筆純熟、流利,色調以青綠重彩為主,間或摻用泥金鈎邊,畫面洋溢著鮮豔而華麗的雰圍。(20100101)&*Qiu Ying (style name Shifu, sobriquet Shizhou) was a native of Taicang (modern Suzhou, Jiangsu). A lacquer craftsman early in his career, he also specialized in architectural decoration. Later he turned to painting, becoming venerated as one of the Four Ming Masters. This album of twenty leaves depicts the events of famous rulers and sages from the legendary Fuxi (mid-2800s BCE?) to Emperor Renzong of the Song (1010-1063), and opposing leaves include inscriptions by Gu Kexue (?-1560). Qiu Ying was probably asked by Gu to illustrate his texts, and the work was then probably submitted to the court in Gu’s quest for promotion. The brushwork is mature and swift, with hues mostly bright blue and green to which gold outlining was added. The fresh and vibrant surfaces create for a sumptuous atmosphere.(20100101) &*1.劉芳如,〈明仇英畫帝王道統萬年圖〉,收入國立故宮博物院編輯委員會編,《明中葉人物畫四家特展-杜菫、周臣、唐寅、仇英》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,2000年初版),頁164-165。 2.劉芳如,〈仇英筆下的華麗一族 — 〈帝王道統萬年圖冊〉鑒讀〉,《故宮文物月刊》,第316期(2009年7月),頁96-111。
