中国古代绘画崇尚人品的思想渊源

推崇绘画中的人品是文人画的一大特点 ,这一特点是在儒、道思想影响下 ,在绘画艺术的长期发展过程中形成的。文人画家所强调的“人品”糅合了儒家的理想人格和道家的自由精神 ,融汇了历史上文人雅士的精神品格 ,渗透于绘画艺术的品评鉴赏中。它和在中国艺术发展史上形成的文化传统有关 ,也和文人士大夫这一特定社会阶层的审美趣味、个人遭遇有着千丝万缕的联系

Theoretical source of advocating artists'moral character in traditional Chinese painting

It is a tradition to advocate artists’moral character in ancient Chinese painting. The concept of “ren pin”(artists’moral character) combines the ideal personalities of Confucius with the free spirit of Daoism. It represents a cultural custom to connect artists’moral characters with paintings’grades. The reason for this phenomenon should be sought in scholar painters’tastes of aesthetics and their social status and cultural environment.
