马家桐 “仿元人花卉图” 纸本 设色 镜心：拍品尺寸: 44x93.5cm, 钤印：马家桐印； 题款： 。拍品来源：北美书画收藏家 旧藏品，真迹。 注释：马家桐，清朝人，籍天津，字景韩，又作景含、井繁，别署醒凡、耿轩主人、 橄澹居士、乐思居士、厢东居士、百印庐主等等。因他得到一枚汉印,印文适为“佳同”二字,于是更名为家同。他曾师从天津著名画家孟毓梓(绣村),与张兆祥等是同门师兄弟，被誉为清同治、光绪年间“津门画家四子”之一。工山水花卉，临摹古迹，尤能乱真。《清朝书画家笔录》 擅勾勒花鸟，与张和庵友善，得设色之法。擅摹仿，临古乱真，曾获旧绢，戏临宋人花鸟一幅，而鉴赏家不以为伪品，其画有名于时，后人珍之。 马家桐画法风格： 马家桐擅画花鸟、山水，间作人物及佛像。他的花鸟画，远师徐熙、王渊、吕纪、 恽南田、蒋廷锡等名家，大都描写四季花木、山禽水鸟、溪渚坡石等传统题材，但在形象、意境的创造上别开生面，运用色彩也有独到之处。其笔下的花鸟，肖古而不泥古，既不失“院体”工整凝炼的真实感，又调和了工笔与写意、敷彩与水墨以及文人强调笔情墨韵的不同体派，变化为工稳清逸的新画风。他善于从不同季节中抓住最具特色的景象，描绘出花木禽鸟生动自然而优美的形态，布局谨严，设色妍雅，笔意洒脱，阴阳向背颇具立体感，整个画面充满明朗欢愉的气氛。在马家桐的花鸟画中，屡见署有“摹锦衣卫指挥吕纪”的题识。他钦佩吕纪以绘画进谏孝宗皇帝的做法，因此有些作品刻意描绘家禽鸟雀在大雪严寒中相互偎依、患难相济的情状。这无疑源自吕纪的《雪景翎毛》、《雪岸双鸿》等名作。可见马家桐也是有意在画作中隐寓着有关社会、人生的见解，从而按照艺术的规律，丰富了花鸟画的思想内涵。他的山水画取法陈靖，基本属于“四王”一脉，不仅是追求形式，而且能运用古人技法结合实景，灵活而多变。丘壑布置富于变化，青绿与水墨都渲染得宜，浑厚而秀润，具有工整稳健、气闲神静的特点。 马家桐具有广博的学识修养。除了绘画外，他还工诗书、擅篆刻、精鉴赏，篆刻远宗秦汉，书法最擅篆隶，是一位全才艺术家。有趣的是，《增广历代画史汇传补编》中还提到他“仿古乱真，其笔法之妙，独步一时”。据说，他曾用旧绢戏仿宋人花鸟画一幅，鉴定家也看不出是伪品，居然卖出了很高的价钱。这件事激发了他的兴致，又陆续临摹出几幅，还请他的挚友、书法家孟广慧临写款识兼摹刻印章，更显得惟妙惟肖。人们戏称他俩为“津门二甲”或“二甲传胪”，“甲”与“假”谐音，即双关二“假”之意，在当时颇负盛名。这类作品也格外受到当时及后世收藏家的珍视。1918年被段祺瑞的安福国会推举为总统的徐世昌，曾慕名拜访一位津沽画坛耆宿，却被人家婉言拒绝。这位不肯攀附权贵的老人就是天津著名画家马家桐先生。---------------------------------------------------------------------Ma jiatong's "imitation of yuan people's flowers" Paper color mirror center: Auction size: 44x93.5cm, seal: maddon; TiKuan:.

He once studied under the famous tianjin painter meng yuzi (embroidery village), and zhang zhaoxiang is the same teacher brothers, known as the qing tongzhi, guangxu years "jinmen painter" one of the four sons. Work landscape flowers, copying historical sites, especially can be true.

Xu xi, wang yuan, lu ji, Yun nantian, jiang tingxi and other famous scholars mostly described the four seasons flowers and trees, birds and water birds, xizhu slope stone and other traditional themes, but in the creation of the image, artistic conception, the use of color is also unique. The flowers and birds under his pen, xiao ancient but not muddle-ancient, not only lose the sense of "courtyard body" neat and condensed, but also harmonized the meticulous brushwork and freehand brushwork, color application and ink painting, as well as the different style school that the literati emphasized the brushwork feeling and ink rhyme, changing into a new style of painting that is stable and elegant.

In ma's flower-and-bird paintings, we often see the inscription "imitating lu ji, commander of jinyiwei". He admired lu ji's way of admonishing emperor xiao-zong with his paintings, so some of his works deliberately depicted birds and birds leaning against each other in the snow and cold and helping each other in times of hardship. This is no doubt from lu ji's "snow plume", "snow shore double hong" and other famous works. It can be seen that ma jiatong also intended to conceal his views on society and life in his paintings, so as to enrich the ideological connotation of flower-and-bird paintings according to the rules of art. His landscape painting method Chen jing, basically belongs to "four Kings" a vein, is not only the pursuit of form, and can use the ancient techniques combined with real scene, flexible and changeable. Qiuhe layout is rich in variety, green and ink rendering appropriate, rich and xiu run, with neat steady, quiet characteristics. Ma has a wide range of knowledge.

Interestingly, he is also mentioned in the supplement to the collected biographies of the augmented painting history of the past dynasties as "archaized and genuine, with a unique style". It is said that he once used an old silk play to imitate the song dynasty flowers and birds to draw a painting, appraiser also can not see is a counterfeit, incredibly sold a very high price. This thing aroused his interest, and one after another copy of a few, also asked his friend, calligrapher meng guanghui to write and copy seals, more vivid. People joked that they were called "jinmen erjia" or "erjia chuanchuan lu". The word "a" sounded like "fake", which means "fake". It was quite famous at that time. This type of work is also particularly prized by collectors at that time and later generations. Xu shichang, who was elected President by the anfu national assembly under tuan chi-jui in 1918, was once invited to visit an old man from jingu, but he was politely refused. The old man who refused to cling to the powerful was Mr. Ma jiatong, a famous painter in tianjin.
