Guo Moruo and Fu Baoshi are friends and teachers, and they have deep feelings. On Guo Moruo’s birthday, Fu Baoshi often presents his masterpiece to celebrate his birthday. A diagram is one of them. The painting depicts the scene described in the “Fu on the Former Red Cliff” by Su Shi, a literary magnate of the Song Dynasty. Under the Red Cliff, a thousand feet of broken shore, a gentle breeze comes, and the river flows soundly. Three people sat opposite each other in the boat, with Su Shi in the middle holding a cup of wine on his chest, speaking of his broad and optimistic outlook on life. The person on the right holds the flute and listens with bated breath. The monk on the left caressed the boat’s help, feeling thoughtful. The wine jug and dishes placed nearby are already in a mess. The river rippled away in waves

The layout of this picture is virtual and real, with the stone walls rising abruptly, creating a strong visual contrast with the open river surface, creating a unique atmosphere.
