Features: In his later years, Xie Zhiyuan named his studio "Zhuangmu Tang," drawing from the line "A loyalist in his twilight years still harbors undiminished vigor" from Cao Cao's poetry. In the history of 20th-century painting, among those of the same generation as Xie Zhiyuan, although many renowned masters and skilled artists emerged, only Xie Zhiyuan could fully integrate achievements across multiple fields, including literature and art, collection, authentication, art history, poetry, lyrics, calligraphy, and painting. The author of this book records the experiences and reflections of Xie Zhiyuan's artistic practice in the form of interviews, totaling nine chapters, including "Line and Freehand Sketching" and "Authentication and Appreciation," accompanied by numerous illustrations.
