Interpretation:
Shinan has pain in his near arm, and the waste book can’t be broken. On the thirteenth day, I sent a book, and it was comforting to get it
The ten brothers in the hand mountain belong to Bingshou. On April 8, 2009, Jiaqing met again in Hanshang
This painting is written by Yu Shinan of the Tang Dynasty (see Volume IV of the Chunhua Pavilion). It only covers the first and last parts of the book. The number is missing in the middle. It is three lines in total. At the end of the book, the regular script reads: “The ten brothers in the hand mountain belong to Bingshou. Jiaqing met Han again on April 8, 2009.” The next seal is “Moqing” and “Yibingshou”. The initial seal is “banquet sitting”. In the ninth year of Jiaqing (1804), Yi Shi was 52 years old. This picture has no Tibetan seal and no description
Yishi’s cursive style comes from the Jin and Tang dynasties. It has the deepest commitment to Yan Zhenqing’s calligraphy and can be used in cursive style with official script, making it unique. This axis of calligraphy has alternate lines, and the strokes reveal the meaning of Zhangcao and Lishu, reflecting the unique charm of Yishi’s calligraphy, which is broad and elegant
In the sixth year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty (1801), Yi Bingshou was changed from the governor of Huizhou in Guangdong to the governor of Yangzhou. In this painting, “Han (H á n) Shang” is another name of Yangzhou. From the title of the work, we can see that it was written by Yi Bingshou when he was an official in Yangzhou. He was 52 years old.
