一个偶然的机会,笔者得见一幅纸本、设色《亭长专室煮茶图》,甚为欣喜。经考证鉴定,此图是1971年朱醉竹先生应金越舫先生所嘱、专门作为祝田宿宇先生生日贺礼所绘。
朱先生(1910—1974),曾名宝庭,又署晖,号醉竹,浙江杭州人。他是西泠印社早期社员,工书,擅篆刻,亦通画,室名九芝砚室。
金先生(1929—1986),浙江绍兴人。他是以收藏家的身份入西泠印社的中期社员。
田先生(1894—1972),原名赢,字宿宇,以字行,号秋籍,浙江绍兴人。他是西泠印社早期社员,善画,亦能书,室名老瓦盆斋。
应金先生请,朱先生慨然作画,并题诗七言律,曰:“老翁八六兴偏赊,品茗观书每日斜。自煮龙团虾蟹眼,同尝雀舌鹧斑花。功深汲古金炉火,室满馨香玉液茶。山水西湖多解渴,灵腴顾渚莫矜夸。”
田先生当有诗致谢。于是,朱先生又写诗作答:《答田宿宇丈并寿八秩开六》。诗题中的“答”字,说明这一点。诗为七言律,分三章,曰:“独拥书城应接忙,修来宠寿各诗章。清腴堪匹瓯香馆,壮丽真同道古堂。褒我惭当称四绝,欣翁得意运三唐。生日与国分先后,雨露同沾靠太阳。”“山阴退士田家叟,生日游提老瓦盆。美酒三湖帘处有,好诗万首箧中存。新登献颂来娇客,黄鹤能图是外孙。互计称觞何地好,开怀共醉杏花村。”“伟绩崇功耀国光,辉煌成就尽宣扬。羡翁有兴传诗草,愧我无闲谱乐章。桂树清香原皎洁,黄花晚节见芬芳。明年再摄湖边景,人寿岁丰国富强。”朱先生并请“越舫仁丈郢斵”,印证了朱氏、金氏、田氏等老一辈西泠人的同道情谊、情趣、情怀。
朱先生所作《亭长专室煮茶图》,“取法高古,秀丽工致,意趣清逸”(丁茂鲁跋语)。图景是在孤山看过去的六桥、三潭和南山层峦的秀色,左右有湖舟、山居隐隐点缀,而居中一屋煮茶,超然于世事之外。這其实是把西泠轶事写意地采纳进去,更是对历史的一种记录——西泠之地本来带有西湖的清冷蕴藉,百多年前,以丁敬为开山之祖的浙派篆刻家们常集聚于此,品茶论艺。后来,号称“西泠四君子”的叶为铭、丁辅之、王福庵、吴大冈为消长暑,暂住西泠之畔的倚人楼,平时做手工会,闲着说些天南海北的话题,便提议召集各地印人成立西泠印社。时至20世纪70年代,朱先生是缅怀,是寄托,还是与金先生、田先生当下共勉?
西泠印社总有一些故事让人回味。印社执行社长刘江先生见到《亭长专室煮茶图》,兴奋不已。他告诉笔者,认识朱先生时,自己还在孤山的浙江国立艺专当学生,因为经常会到印社帮忙,遇到朱先生的机会比较多;那时朱先生在中山路上开了一家旧书店,他也经常去逛逛。刘先生欣然为此图“恭书”引首,时在“癸巳(2013)秋仲”。
印社理事、“西泠五老”之一丁茂鲁,为此图题跋:“此卷亭长专室煮茶图,山水取法高古,秀丽工致,意趣清逸,堪称妙品”,署“癸巳(2013)小雪后三日”。
自建社以来,凡社员皆以“西泠印社中人”自称为荣,必刻印章。西泠印社中人鲍复兴题辞作跋此图:“澄心运思 神妙秋毫”,署“癸巳(2013)寒月”。
西泠印社中人俞建华赋诗作跋此图:“前辈先生最用功,柔毫铁笔共雍容。闲来写幅湖山卷,香茗不忘伴瘦筇”,署“癸巳(2013)小雪”。
西泠印社中人吴静初有长文作跋此图:“唯甲午(2014)初三日,幸观吾社前辈朱醉竹先生遗墨亭长专室煮茶图。凡茅亭松阁扁舟人物,处处皆合乎情理,纤不伤雅,丽不恶俗。山容稳重而空灵,云华变幻而流动,赋色明净,点染葱翠。所谓一笔不苟,一墨不费,人物陪衬其间,各具态姿而不谬妄,实非一日可成。良工苦心为能品之上上者,不虚称也。余尝见古人显晦早暮之异,有如子昭仲圭,苟或通涩,遂遂汲汲于名利,乃至笔墨趋时,遗本逐末,多陋习矣,即志得意满,何足羡乎?当如醉公潜心于此,资禀诱发,好古而今用,理明而体从之,犹若禅家之参,为上乘得三昧者,始可以为画也。偶以自是之见,有感叹而续尾,诸多乖谬,贻笑方家耳。”
印社副社长童晏方先生为此图题跋“敬记”:“此亭长专室煮茶图,绘文人品茶雅趣。重峦叠翠之中岗阜错落,屋中煽火煮茶,侧屋几中置器具处式,文人悠然之气鬯然矣。朱醉竹先生之绘真有百读不厌之妙。”童先生又“后记”:“时甲午(2014)大暑,友人携金越舫先生属朱醉竹先生作此图,二老嗜茶雅趣则尤为难得矣。”
印社史上,父子同为西泠印社中人的寥寥可数,朱醉竹、朱恒吉父子便是一例。朱恒吉先生为父亲之图作跋“煮茶图乃先父四十七年前为金越舫前辈精心绘制,经岁月磨难,作品伤痕累累,观之心痛。所幸者今有……装裱,又请印社内名家高手题跋作诗赋文,使之书画合璧,增添无穷韵味,画面为之一新,珍惜有加。忆前辈潘天寿、张宗祥、邵斐子、阮性山等,对先父所订润例美言,佳文多有推荐。今又有印社内法家慷慨题赠,可读可赏,在此余深深致谢”于乙未年(2015)。
西泠印社中人骆恒光赋诗作跋此图:“画到深时不妨淡,饮来醇酒未须甘,先生自有清灵笔,招我几回开卷看”,署“丙申(2016)盛夏”。
看画、读跋、释文、悟意,《亭长专室煮茶图》实在已不再是朱先生个人遗墨,而是聚西泠众家之珍了。人说,西泠印社中人,博学——通国学、懂美学、善笃学;真诚——谦逊、达理、守信;精致——儒雅、智慧、守拙,这话在此图中得到了或多或少的反映。
长期负责西泠印社馆藏的邓京女士说:“品画读文思人。《煮茶图》情谊长存,回味无穷,真可谓山水西湖多解渴,一世情缘金石存。”
On a rare occasion I was able to admire a traditional Chinese painting done on rice paper and in color. The painting is entitled “Boiling Tea in Director’s Office”. Researches indicate that it was a painting created in 1971 by Mr. Zhu Zuizhu in celebration of Mr. Tian Suyu’s birthday. The three were all members of Xiling Seal Art Society. The society is the country’s most prominent, most prestigious, and oldest art association, founded in 1904 by a group of prestigious artists including Wu Changshuo, a painter, calligrapher and seal engraver. Zhu Zuizhu (1910-1974), a native of Hangzhou, was a seal artist and painter. He was a member of the society in its early decades. Mr. Jin Yuefang (1929-1986) joined the society as a collector of art. Mr. Tian Suyu (1894-1972), a native of Shaoxing, was a painter and calligrapher. He joined the society in its early decades. Jin proposed to Zhu to create a painting in honor of Tian’s birthday and Zhu responded enthusiastically. This painting was born.
What makes the painting fascinating and special is not merely the West Lake in a perspective that suggests the location of the Xiling Seal Art Society’s headquarters on the West Lake. That year, Zhu was 61, three years before he passed away. Tian was 77 and he had one more year to live. The birthday painting was done in time. Mr. Zhu composed a poem and inscribed it on the painting. Tian wrote a poem in reply. Tian wrote three more. The painting and the poems are witness to the friendship of the three and their respect paid to their predecessors of the society.
What also makes the painting fascinating and special are inscriptions added to the painting on different occasions by other prominent members of the Xiling Seal Art Society. The acting president of the society Liu Jiang put an inscription on the painting in the autumn of 2013. He personally knew Mr. Zhu, the creator of the painting. He was an art student when he first met Zhu. Back then, Zhu ran a second-hand bookstore in a busy street in downtown. Liu visited that bookstore now and then. Ding Maolu, a senior member of the society, added an inscription to the painting in 2013.
Also written on the painting are short inscriptions by other key members of the society such as Yu Jianhua in 2013, Bao Fuxing in 2013, Wu Jingchu (a professor with China Academy of Art) in 2014, and Tong Yan (vice president of the society) in 2014, and Luo Hengguang in 2016.
They wrote inscriptions to respond to the three artists in a generation before them. They expressed their appreciation also for one additional reason: Zhu Zuizhu’s son Zhu Hengji is now a member of the society. Father and son members are quite rare in the history of the society. The senior and the junior from the Zhu family are one of the rare pairs. Zhu Hengji wrote a long inscription in 2015 to honor the painting done in 1971. He mentions in the inscription that Pan Tianshou, Zhang Zongxiang, Shao Feizi and Ruan Xingshan, all prestigious members of the society, had helped his father in various ways and he appreciates these masters’ generosity and kindness.
With so many poems and inscriptions and seals, the painting is no longer a single artwork by Zhu alone. It is an artwork jointly created by all the masters. It is said that scholarly artists of the society are known for their profound knowledge of Chinese classics and aesthetics and their general pursuit of knowledge, for their honesty, humility, reason, and trustworthiness, and for their sophistication, gentleness, wisdom, and simplicity. The painting reflects the characteristics of these members.
