研读《红楼梦》前八十回以及其他一些相关文字资料,结合明末到清代康雍乾时期中国绘画主流面貌和绘画理论,我们可以对曹雪芹的绘画素养和渊源有一个相对客观的认识和评价。曹雪芹不但对于绘画史、绘画的材料、过程和技巧十分熟悉,且有较高的绘画造诣,其绘画理论受到当时盛行的明末董其昌“南北宗论”的较大影响。 After studying the first eighty chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions and other related texts and materials, we can have a relatively objective understanding and evaluation of Cao Xueqin’s painting qualities and origins, combining with the mainstream of Chinese painting in the Kangxi and Yongchuan periods from the late Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. Cao Xueqin is not only familiar with the history of painting, the materials, processes and techniques of painting, but also has high attainments in painting. His painting theory was greatly influenced by the then prevailing Ming dynasty Dong Qichang and “Northern and Southern Sects”.
