工筆丹青展現磅礡氣象的民國才女——潘素

The Magnificent Brushwork of a Republican-Era Talented Woman — Pan Su

潘素（1915-1992），民國時期的傑出女畫家，以精湛的工筆劃技法名揚畫 壇，其獨特的氣質和出眾的美貌成為當時的風雲人物。她的藝術人生充滿了傳奇 色彩，而優雅而堅韌的形象也深深鐫刻在中國美術史上。一位能用工筆劃表現出 磅礴氣象畫家，潘素的作品不僅展示了細膩的技法，更傳遞出強烈的宏大氣勢，打破了工筆劃僅限於纖細精緻的刻板印象。

Pan Su (1915-1992) was an outstanding female painter of the Republican era, renowned in the art world for her exceptional mastery of fine brush painting. Her unique temperament and remarkable beauty made her a prominent figure of the time. Her artistic life was full of legendary color, and her graceful yet resilient image is deeply etched in the history of Chinese art. As a painter capable of using fine brush techniques to convey a grand atmosphere, Pan Su's works not only showcased delicate craftsmanship but also conveyed a powerful and majestic presence, breaking the stereotype that fine brush painting was limited to intricate and refined details.

美貌與才華兼具的民國佳人

A Republican Beauty Blessed with Both Talent and Beauty

潘素原名潘白琴，出生於江南書香門第。自幼便展現出非凡的藝術天賦，家 族的文化薰陶加之她對繪畫的熱愛，使得她在藝術道路上迅速嶄露頭角。然而， 潘素並不僅僅以外貌和才華為世人所稱道，她所代表的是一位集美貌、智慧和藝 術造詣於一身的女性典範。她的美貌曾吸引無數關注，但更為難得的是她能夠憑 藉繪畫，尤其是工筆劃，贏得專業領域的廣泛認可。

Pan Su, originally named Pan Baiqin, was born into a scholarly family in Jiangnan. From an early age, she demonstrated extraordinary artistic talent. Influenced by her family's cultural heritage and her own passion for painting, she quickly emerged as a rising star in the art world. However, Pan Su was not merely admired for her looks and talent. She embodied a perfect combination of beauty, intelligence, and artistic achievement. While her beauty attracted much attention, it was her mastery of painting, particularly fine brush painting, that earned her widespread recognition in the professional art world.

工筆劃中的磅礴氣象

A Grand Atmosphere in Fine Brush Painting

工筆劃在中國傳統繪畫中以精緻、細膩著稱，常用於表現花鳥、仕女等小巧 玲瓏的題材。然而，潘素卻能在工筆劃的基礎上，融入宏大的山水意境，以工筆 手法呈現出深邃廣闊的天地。這在當時極為罕見，也成為了她藝術風格中最為獨 特的亮點。她的畫作如《雲峰春江》、《萬松積雪》無不展現出她對大自然的深 刻理解與強烈的情感投射。工筆的嚴謹細膩在她的筆下並不顯得局促，反而為宏 偉的自然景象增添了一份精緻的美感。

Fine brush painting is known for its meticulous and delicate style in traditional Chinese art, often used to depict small, intricate subjects such as flowers, birds, and elegant women. However, Pan Su managed to incorporate a grander landscape atmosphere into the fine brush style, presenting vast and profound natural scenes with meticulous brushwork. This was extremely rare at the time and became the most distinctive feature of her artistic style. Her works, such as Spring River Among Cloud Peaks and Snow Accumulating on Pines, reflected her deep understanding of nature and her intense emotional projection. Under her brush, the rigorous detail of fine brush painting did not seem constrained but rather added a refined beauty to the majestic natural scenes.

這種能用工筆劃表現出氣象磅礴的藝術造詣，極少有人能夠達到。她通過工整的線條、精細的色彩處理，將看似靜謐的畫面注入了磅礴的氣勢，讓觀者仿佛 置身其中，感受到自然的偉大與生命的力量。

Very few could reach the artistic heights of expressing such a grand atmosphere through fine brush painting. Through precise lines and meticulous color treatment, she infused her seemingly tranquil scenes with a sense of grandeur, allowing viewers to feel as though they were immersed in the natural world, experiencing the greatness of nature and the power of life.

與張伯駒的相知相伴

Her Life with Zhang Boju

潘素的名字與著名收藏家張伯駒密不可分。兩人不僅是生活中的伴侶，更是 藝術道路上的同行者。潘素不僅在藝術創作中獲得了丈夫的支持，還與張伯駒共 同投入到保護國家文物的事業中。尤其是在國家危難時期，潘素毅然變賣自己的 陪嫁物品，幫助丈夫收購國寶《遊春圖》，以免其流失海外。這種家國情懷和無 私奉獻，令她的形象更加高大。

Pan Su’s name is inseparable from that of the famous collector Zhang Boju. The two were not only life partners but also companions on their artistic journeys. Pan Su received tremendous support from her husband in her artistic pursuits, and together they dedicated themselves to preserving national cultural relics. Especially during times of national crisis, Pan Su resolutely sold her dowry to help Zhang Boju purchase the national treasure Spring Outing to prevent it from being lost overseas. Her patriotic spirit and selfless devotion further elevated her stature.

與張伯駒的相伴也使得潘素有機會觀摩大量珍貴書畫真跡，這些藝術瑰寶為 她的藝術創作提供了豐富的靈感和滋養。她從隋唐兩宋的工筆重彩中汲取養分， 逐漸形成了自己獨特的畫風，成為了當時青綠山水畫派的代表性人物之一。

Her companionship with Zhang Boju also gave Pan Su the opportunity to observe numerous precious paintings and calligraphic masterpieces. These artistic treasures provided her with rich inspiration and nourishment for her own creations. Drawing from the fine brush and rich color techniques of the Sui, Tang, and Song dynasties, she gradually developed her own unique style, becoming one of the representative figures of the blue-and-green landscape painting school of her time.

不朽的藝術遺產

The Immortal Artistic Legacy

潘素的藝術作品數量眾多，晚年更是創作了大量精品。她的山水畫不僅在國 內備受推崇，還多次作為國禮贈送給外國政要，展現了中國傳統文化的獨特魅力。 她的作品不僅是一幅幅精美的畫作，更是她對自然、人生、家國的深刻感悟與情 感表達。

Pan Su produced an extensive body of work throughout her career, creating numerous masterpieces in her later years. Her landscape paintings were highly revered in China and were often presented as national gifts to foreign dignitaries, showcasing the unique charm of traditional Chinese culture. Her works were not just beautiful paintings, but also deep reflections and emotional expressions of her understanding of nature, life, and her nation.

晚年時期，潘素的創作進入了高峰期，她的每一幅作品都凝聚了她對藝術的 執著與對生活的熱愛。1992 年，潘素因病辭世，但她的藝術成就和人生故事將 永遠銘刻在人們心中。

In her later years, Pan Su reached the peak of her artistic creation. Each of her pieces reflected her dedication to art and her love for life. In 1992, Pan Su passed away due to illness, but her artistic achievements and life story remain forever etched in the hearts of those who remember her.
