Wu Ch’ang-suo (1844-1927)
Republican Period
Wu Ch’ang-suo (original name Chun; style names Ch’ang-suo and Ts’ang-shih; sobriquets Fou-lu, K’u-t’ieh, P’o-he, Lao-fou, and Ta-lung) was a native of An-chi in Chekiang. After the age of 69, he practiced his art under his style name. In calligraphy, Wu specialized in Stone Drum script. He transformed the brushwork and structure of predecessors’ calligraphy to form his own style. He studied seal carving from various masters in Chekiang and Anhwei and went back to Ch’in (255 B.C.) and Han (206 B.C – 220 A.d.) period seals; the hard medium of the seal stone was carved with blunt lines to reveal a plain yet hoary strength. Furthermore, Wu Ch’ang-suo also applied the calligraphic style of stone and bronze inscriptions to his paintings, creating a bold and rich style with deep, strong colors. He became a noted artist of the Shanghai School.
This monochrome ink painting of chrysanthemums and a cluster of merging out from stems was completed when Wu was 45 years of age. The brushwork is spirited and complete and the ink is very moist and fluent. In addition to the abundant atmosphere of the Stone and Bronze School style, the painting also has a quite graceful air.
