人物画与山水画、花鸟画在形象语言方面的最大区别在于,人物画的形象语言具有直接性。山水“借景抒情”,花鸟“以物喻意”,人物则通过形象来直接表情达意。这要求人物画在造型上的把握更为准确、更为丰富,从而达到所谓的“形神兼备”。中国的绘画从来讲求形象语言的准确性。谢赫六法之一就有“应物象形”之说。画不能没有形,没有形就不成画。以形象来表情达意,说的是形不准则意不达、情不明,所以准确的形象语言是绘画的必备条件。但是,只有形似是不够的,形似不是绘画 Figure painting and landscape paintings, flowers and birds in the image of the language the biggest difference is that the portraits of the image of the characters have the direct nature. Landscape “by King scenery lyric”, flowers and birds “to the object of metaphorical”, the characters are directly through the image of expression. This requires figure painting in the shape of the grasp more accurate and more abundant, so as to achieve the so-called “shape and spirit.” Chinese painting has always been the language of image accuracy. One of the six methods of Sheikh has “should be pictographic” theory. Can not paint without shape, no shape is not a painting. To express their emotions in the image, to say that the form is not intended to reach, the situation is unknown, so the accurate image of the language is a prerequisite for painting. However, only the shape is not enough, the shape is not painting
