韩干和他的马
好一匹骏马!尽管已经走过千年的时光,我们还能从它炽烈的双眼、裸露的牙齿与舞动的马蹄中感觉到力量。《照夜白图》,现收藏于纽约大都会艺术博物馆,被认为是中国艺术史上最为重要的骏马图之一。它的创作者——画家韩干以其神形兼备的画马技艺闻名于世。
韩干出生于初唐时期的一个贫苦家庭,年少时不得不在当地酒肆帮工来维持家庭生计。(有一次,)他被派至诗人王维家收酒钱,绘画才能因机缘巧合被发现。当时,韩干在门口等候,他用一根木棒在土地上画画,正好被王维看到。王维决定资助这位年轻人学画,并将他引荐给了一位绘画大师。韩干本来就有天赋,加之多年勤学苦练,最终被召入皇宫为唐玄宗效力。
唐代的皇帝十分喜爱马,马因此成了画家笔下的常见主题。当时学习画马最普遍的方法是临摹前人留下的画作。但韩干却采用了不同的方法——他去观察真的马。他是皇家马厩的常客,甚至直接搬到马厩中与马夫同住了好一段时间。无论是静止休息的马还是动态行进的马,都给韩干带来很多灵感。他观察的时间越长,对马的了解程度就越深。韩干日复一日地练习画马,用画笔把眼睛观察到的每一处细节都呈现出来。
据说,皇帝曾让他选一位画马大师为师,韩干却回答:“我有自己的老师,陛下。您马厩里所有的马都是我的老师。”
看过韩干的骏马图的人都对他独特的技艺赞赏有加,称他的马“跃然纸上”。就连宋朝的著名诗人苏轼都曾赞扬过韩干画马的卓越才能,他在诗中写道:“韩生画马真是马。”
