【 Fu Baoshi Liuyin Grazing Map Axis 】

The “Liuyin Grazing Map” axis, in modern times, is painted by Fu Baoshi in paper, with colors, measuring 45.2 centimeters vertically and 57.3 centimeters horizontally
The title of this painting is: “Made by Baoshi Baixia.” With the seal of “Fu”, the seal of “Baoshi Private Seal”, the seal of “Baoshi Private Seal”, the seal of “Often Drunken”, the seal of “Zhuwen Rectangle Seal”, and the seal of “Baoshi Delightful Works”, the seal of “Zhuwen Fang Seal”
Fu Baoshi’s depiction of rain can be described as “sublime”, either in a violent storm or in a gentle breeze, each with its own merits. Unlike the breathtaking wind and rain scenes in the “Tempest” and “The Rainstorm Returns to the Boat”, the “Willow Shade Pastoral Painting” unfolds a scene of “apricot blossoms, spring rain, and Jiangnan”: the spring breeze is gentle, not cold to the human face, the drizzle is fluttering, confused and empty, weeping willows are leaning against each other, verdant and drizzling, with crisscrossing paths, desert fields, and cowboys riding cattle, slowly returning. This scene echoes in the viewer’s heart like a charming pastoral song, which can’t help but indulge in the imagination of unrestrained rural life. A poetic life and poetic ideals may be what painters aspire to
