Ivory carved landscape pen holder

[Ivory landscape pen holder]

Ivory landscape pen holder, bright, 13.5 cm high, 10.6 cm diameter
The pen holder is round, the mouth wall is thick and the foot wall is thin, and the back is embedded at the bottom. The surface of the instrument is engraved with the scenery of mountains, forests, streams and banks, and painted black. The composition is complete and unfolded slowly. People have no face, and the room has no window lattice. It is like a brush and grass, but it is in line with the painting principle. The incisions are short and powerful, the knife is sharp, fast and expressive, and has the effect of dry brush chapping. The style is elegant and refined. It is a rare masterpiece in the tooth-carving pen holders of the same period. The upper part is engraved with the title sentence of the running script:
The mountains are towering, danbixian, and the cold air melts into a spring
I have traveled all over Wu and Chu in my life, and my heart is hanging over my eyes
Occasionally write about the weather, and the trees are deep in front of us
Youxiu Jilu is deserted, and watching the mountain is like sitting in meditation all day long
The old pine in the gate is ancient and clumsy, and the green stream and white stone are filled with clouds
Leave your pen and ink on the desk, and wish you a beautiful face
and “Yimao Spring went to Qinghua in March, an old friend of the Taoist classics. In front of the village, there were old pines and cypresses, deep streams flowing to the west, and wild grasses and flowers, which were hidden by the experts. He walked in the villa, and there were several thatched houses, and a couple of zither children. He inquired about the owner, and spoke in the room, and followed the imitation. After many years of separation, he was lucky to hold the meeting. Suddenly, he saw a piece of furniture on the desk, which was quite ancient and elegant. It was not written. He waved it casually, and did not get deep interest. He kept it in his mind. The Taoist priest of Mojing Yu Shan Wu Li kept it in his mind.” The first chapter of “ink well” is followed by “fishing” and “mountain”.
