Wangyi Zhongyou's Photography Works

If there are no dead people drifting in historical space, if there are no earthly things that have happened in time coordinates, what is a garden? Outsiders or Suzhou people may only see houses, flowers and plants and rockeries when they walk into that garden for the first time, which are all classics in the eyes of architectural scholars. Photographers care about the subtle tremors of the four seasons in the morning and evening, and what they hear most is the professional tour guide's clear articulation and clear thinking.

The garden is the former home, and the former home has previous events, seeing things and thinking about people. The garden is a place of memory and commemoration, not necessarily a friend of a family. Generally these people are too rich and powerful. When they enter the garden, they actually seem to be turning pages, picturesque. The stories about these people are novels. Unofficial history is often better than the solemnity of archives, and many past events in Master Wang's Garden are worth looking over. Master Wang Garden is located in Kuanjiatou Lane in the southeast corner of the ancient city. Walking in, there are many second-hand goods stalls in the alley, selling photos of Empress Dowager Cixi in Beijing. Then you finally see an open space with doors and walls, not too big, not too conspicuous and not too shabby. The black door with rules has connotations. What is more distinctive is that there are drum stones on both sides of the door, which are reliefs of lion rolling hydrangeas, which have been touched by many hands who just bought tickets. The color is not only old but also moist. The frontispiece in Master Wang's Garden is very experienced, but not as imposing as Humble Administrator's Garden. The owner of the net garden is gentle. Originally called Wanjuantang, I read thousands of books and all the Song editions.

The earliest gardening of Wang Shi Garden was 800 years ago. During the Shaoxing period of the Southern Song Dynasty, Shi Shi, the assistant minister of the official department, was illegally dismissed from office for opposing Zhang Jun's Northern Expedition. During the Xichun period, the Wanjuan Pavilion was built here, and 42 cabinets were listed. Among them, many books are written opposite to each other, and 500 peony plants are widely planted, with flowers like brocade, and they study behind closed doors. Ming Dynasty's "Gusu Zhi" and "Changzhou County Zhi" quoted "Learning from the DPRK" saying: "Yangzhou people spent 1.5 million yuan to build a city bridge house and set up a garden. Only this level, the nursery will be abolished first. " As a result of waste, gardens began to appear in the second-hand housing market at that time. The asking price was extremely low, "100000 feet", but no one bought it. It hung on the market for many days, and finally it was sold to Changzhou Ding at the cost of 1%, only 15,000 feet. It seems that Ding Mouren's future is not bright, and soon he sold them again. Unfortunately, those books, Old Things in Wuzhong written by Yuan people, recorded: "At first, you bought paper by the pound, but later the family stopped at 1000 per cupboard." We guess that those precious "notebooks" should at least be cultural relics of the Tang Dynasty. If you sell your house, you will sell your books. Imagine that when Shi's fleet entered from Fengmen, it crossed half of Suzhou City. What an amazing momentum. You can't say no without being an official. Because your child is incompetent and has no noble door.

As a saleable property, Netscape's fate seems to have been very unhappy. The name Master Wang Garden first appeared in a prosperous time in Qing Dynasty. At that time, Song Zongyuan, a native of Guanglu Temple in Suzhou, often went to the former site of Wanjuan Hall as a teenager. After retirement, he established another career here. As a place, his mother raised his relative, the famous net master Zhu Xiao, as another name for a fisherman in Suzhou. The fisherman's better name is "fisherman", which is simply Qu Yuan's teacher. In short, he is going to "retire", as if the gardens in Suzhou were built for this purpose at that time, and they were famous cultures. Shen Deqian, the neighbor of Song Zongyuan, was the first contemporary poet below Qianlong, and his brother-in-law Peng Qifeng was the top scholar. Everyone gathered together, nothing more than playing the piano, playing chess, painting and calligraphy, poetry and wine. In the twenty-third year of Qianlong, Peng Qifeng came to the garden to attend the Lantern Festival and write poems. At that time, the Master of Nets Garden always seemed to be filled with the atmosphere of literary salons. However, the Song family in the Qing Dynasty, like the historians in the Song Dynasty, failed to spread the Master of Nets Garden to their grandchildren. After Song Zongyuan died at the age of sixty-nine, he was still the son of a "Tai student" and was as smart as a doctor today. He fought a lawsuit with someone. When he ran out of money, he sold his house and land and gave half of his estate to others. In a few years, the garden was deserted again, with weeds knee-high and no one cared.

At the end of Qianlong, the garden was purchased by Quyuan Village, a wealthy businessman in Taicang. At that time, he happened to pass by and saw that most of the ancient arbor stones were lost and deformed. When asked, the owner was planning to sell it, so he rebuilt and added a pavilion and bamboo building, which changed the old scenery. On the Dragon Boat Festival in the 60th year of Qianlong, the garden was restored. He invited Qian Daxin and other celebrities and old friends to talk about the banquet garden. In Qian Daxin, there is the Master's Garden, which records the plum blossom stone mountain house, the hills and the bright moon coming to the wind pavilion.

With the change of owner, the garden has become Quyuan Garden and Mi Yuan Garden among the migrants, but Quyuan Village still likes the original artistic conception of "net owner", which is not bad. Master Wang's garden covers an area of eight acres. "There are only a few acres of land, but there are endless reasons; Although it is close to home, it is fun to forget the clouds. "Its basic appearance and layout have been laid today. At that time, peony was planted in the garden, which continued the rich scene of Wanjuan Temple in Song Dynasty. During the Jiaqing period, the net garden was noisy.

Later, Netscape Garden changed hands again, and the speed became faster and faster. Qu's garden has a history of only thirty years, and it was transferred to Wu in Tiandu in the early years of Daoguang. At the beginning of Tongzhi, the garden belonged to Li Hongzi, the provincial judge of Jiangsu Province. Because of the shape of Canglang Pavilion, Li Zi named it ""and changed the name of the garden to "". In the 22nd year of Guangxu, Li Shaomei, the successor, added the Xiu Xiu Building. In thirty-three years, Jilin General Da Gui came to Jiangsu with his family as soon as possible. Netscape Garden began to have military commanders and Confucian generals. They lived in this garden and wrote the story of Netscape Garden. It was almost the Republic of China. Jilin General used to ride a horse in Baishan Heishui, and his old comrade-in-arms Cheng Dequan happened to be the governor of Jiangsu at that time. The Governor's Office is close to Netscape Garden, where military commanders also held meetings until the year before the Revolution of 1911. Soon after, near Netscape Garden, Cheng Dequan took off some tiles from the roof of the yamen with a bamboo pole and became the new chief executive. Later, he ran to a temple outside the city and became a monk. This is another story.

19 17, Zhang bought this garden with 300,000 silver dollars, which was specially given to his mentor General Zhang Xiluan as a gift for his 70th birthday. Zhang Xiluan used to be Zhang Fei's immediate boss, when they had just become an official. It is said that he wrote excellent frontier poems and was a veteran of Beiyang. Netscape Garden has also been renamed Yiyuan Garden, and the Moon Pavilion, Lotus Pond and Dianchun Cat have won from time to time, especially the stacked stone image of the zodiac is rare elsewhere. Strangely, neither the gift giver nor the recipient has been here, and Zhang Xiluan has never lived in Netscape Park for a day in five years. Although I have never lived, it is not a hollow reputation. The old chief has a face. It doesn't matter whether he lives or dies. Zhang Xiluan should have no shortage of houses. There is never a shortage of celebrities, especially artists.

1932, due to the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War in Songhu, the middle school affiliated to Jinan University moved to the Soviet Union. Cao Juren, a famous writer, first lived near Canglang Pavilion, and later moved to Netscape Garden. Cao Juren remembered that there was "a big jujube garden with a pair of cypress couplets hanging in the back row of houses:" The old trees in front of the courtyard are older than me, and the sunset outside the trees reaches people ",which is worthy of textual research. During these days in Suzhou, he listened to Yang Naizhen's pipa at night, and the warbler was tied with "the old scene of Guangyu Society thirty years ago" during the day. In the Republic of China, Master Wang Park once attracted celebrities from all walks of life, such as famous sea painters such as Zhang, Zhang Daqian and Kun Zhong. In particular, the Zhang brothers not only lived in Master Wang Park for four years, but also raised a tiger in Master Wang Park, leaving a much-told story in the painting world.

Zhang Daqian is from Neijiang, Sichuan. In 1930s, there was a saying in China landscape painting circle, namely Zhang Nan (Daqian) and Pope (Xinhua News Agency). Like Cao Juren, Zhang Daqian came to Suzhou from Shanghai at that time. He has a close relationship with Zhang Shihuang, the son of Zhang Xiluan, and has the opportunity to borrow Netscape. Zhang Daqian's second brother, Zhang Shanqiu, is also a famous painter. He went to Japan twice to specialize in painting, especially in painting tigers, calling himself "tiger idiot" and "tiger beard" At that time, people called him "Tiger Gong" and "Zhang Tiger". 1935, the Red Army of Workers and Peasants marched on the Long March, and Hao Menglin, the commander of the Kuomintang, was transferred to Guizhou to participate in the encirclement and suppression. His troops caught a young tiger in a deep mountain cave in Chiyo, and soon brought it back to the "appeasement office" in Hankou and gave it to Zhu Bolin, the general staff. After a long time, the little tiger has become a little tiger, and it is inevitable to play with the children at home every day. Knowing that his old friend Zhang was good at drawing tigers, Zhu Bolin sent a telegram to Suzhou asking if he wanted to give you a tiger. This kind of telegram is very interesting. Zhang is good at drawing tigers. Now the good news is coming. He immediately went to Hankou to pick up the tiger, and the fake cave in the main garden of the net became the new home of the little tiger. When he took the tiger through the busy streets of Suzhou, the audience was surprised and caused a sensation. About Hao Menglin, we can still see his name in Mao Xuan today, because he died heroically and was a model for China soldiers. During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression in North China, General Hao Menglin, who was already the commander of the army, went to the front line to command and was unfortunately shot and killed. Crying to kill the enemy at the end of his life is also beside the point.

Brother Dafengtang is painting in Netscape Garden. This little tiger that Hao Menglin caught is said to like to drink fresh milk best, which is very human. Zhang gets along with him day and night and often acts like a tiger. Zhang Daqian and Zhang Shanyuan also cooperated to draw twelve tigers and named them "Twelve Golden Statues". Tiger is a metaphor of beauty, which smacks of Zen. Unfortunately, even if the "beauty" in the painting sneezes loudly, it sounds like a tiger growling. Once a tourist came to visit, and he was startled by the tiger. Zhang Shanyuan knocked it on the head three times with a folding fan. As soon as the tiger saw the seal, he immediately cried with his head touching the ground, which greatly moved the monk who saw through the world of mortals and prayed for him. Three days later, the tiger still died. Zhang was very sad and set up a monument. 1982, Zhang Daqian was still worried about this past overseas, wrote "The Tomb of the Tiger" and sent it back to Suzhou. Today, this handwriting has been carved into a monument and placed in the place where the tiger bone was buried.

Before the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Zhang brothers ran away one after another, leaving their owners behind. 1940, the owner of the tennis court changed again, this time it was He Yanong. He Yanong, a graduate of the Japanese Army NCO School, has a rich collection of cultural relics, paintings and calligraphy, and is also a teacher of Chiang Kai-shek. After purchasing this garden, he spent three years completely renovating and enriching antique paintings and calligraphy. During the Japanese occupation of Suzhou, many classical gardens suffered great damage. There are military horses in the garden, feces are everywhere, and exquisite carvings are demolished and burned. He Yanong's Netscape seems to have no trouble. He is a "capable man". His house in Suzhou is not limited to Netscape. Today's Nanyuan Hotel is also his industry. At that time, He Yanong lived in the South Park of Shiquan Street. Master Garden was an "anomaly" in Suzhou during the eight-year Anti-Japanese War. Until the day when Japan announced its surrender, the owner of the Master Garden fled alone overnight and died in Peiping.

Accidents keep happening. Shortly after the liberation of Suzhou, his house in Nanyuan became a guest house for foreign guests in Suzhou. When cleaning, the staff of the guest house found a movable door panel on the back wall of a bathroom. Inside the door panel is a secret room where treasures are hidden. On the second floor of the Chamber of Secrets, there are dozens of boxes of sealed artifacts. The staff reported to the Suzhou Cultural Management Committee, and the Cultural Management Committee sent someone to receive it. Most cultural relics are paintings, calligraphy, lithographs and porcelain.

His children had left the country before. After this collection was discovered, He's descendants donated the garden to the country on 1950. Naturally, this precious collection of calligraphy and painting porcelain was also voluntarily donated to the country and is now in Suzhou Museum.

These past events in Master Wang's garden have been polished by time, with moist colors and no intense feeling at present. Before entering the garden, we knew that the pace might be slower, and we saw more than carved houses and luxurious pavilions. When we walked into Netscape Garden, we were visiting an old family and taking a time trip.

After entering the door, the first thing that can be specially introduced is the gate house made of seiko bricks, which is beautifully carved. Known as the crown of similar gatehouses in Suzhou classical gardens, "blooming flowers", like "Congratulations on getting rich", means auspiciousness, and then enter the "Wanjuan Temple" with a bronze drum, which is a rare antique in Suzhou gardens. Shui Ge Zhuo Ying has a pair of the most famous couplets in the Wang Garden. That's a sentence written by Zheng Banqiao: "Once colorful, peach powder in Yucun", with only eight words and four allusions. It's like guessing riddles, but it may be strange to understand: China culture in Suzhou's comfortable gardens generally encourages people to relax, rest and be free, not to think about it, and to use Zheng Banqiao's character behind closed doors.

Today, Master Wang's garden is most famous in the world from Chun Zhu, Yunnan. She has a replica called "Xuan Ming", which is collected in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA. This kind of cloning realized such an ambition: in a skyscraper with the highest land price in the world, they tried to restore the private gardens of ancient eastern countries, and they did it in 198 1 year. In the new open era, many China people who have the opportunity to travel to new york for the first time are surprised at first, and then proud. Apart from the significance of a successful cultural exchange, this scene does have a surreal and grotesque atmosphere. It is in a reinforced concrete building. Today, jurists even begin to pay attention to the legality of China cultural relics in the Metropolitan Museum.

Back to the quiet master's garden, back to the Spring Temple, which is a courtyard suitable for reading. This study includes a study. Spring is connected with spring, and the book is beside it. Flowers bloom and fall, the clouds are light and the ink is light, and few people bother. The temple realm in spring is implicit, and peony flowers come late in spring at the latest, just like Hanbi Spring in the southwest corner of the courtyard, deep and silent. If 1958 did not accidentally dig out the stone engraved with the words "Hanbi Spring" during the transformation, the spring water might be willing to be buried according to the discovery. There is a cold spring pavilion, which is only half of the pavilion built in the wall. There is a strange Lingbi stone in Gu Zhuo. It is "more than 3 meters high, shaped like an eagle spreading its wings and flying, hitting the net with sound." The source of this stone is very good. It is said to be an old thing from Taohuawu, which belongs to Tang Bohu's family.

There is an 800-year-old Cooper in front of the Juniper Gallery, which was planted in the Southern Song Dynasty. It is best to sit in this gallery and enjoy the snow in winter. There are more than 200-year-old Pinus bungeana in the garden, and there is a teahouse in front of the door. If you are tired from walking, you can rest here without being disturbed. Master Wang Garden has the smallest stone bridge in Suzhou Garden, named Jingqiao, which has a strong sense of form. There is a stone embedded in the lower wall of the bridge, engraved with the word "bright room" Green is quaint and lovely, and it is also something of the Song Dynasty. Just like the Netscape itself, it's not big, and there are many past events.

Anxious ... because LZ asks too broad questions. ...

I don't know if this will work
