A Thousand Years of Painting and Calligraphy in Xuanzhou is a work belonging to the Ancient Xuanzhou: A Prominent Town South of the Yangtze culture and history book series. It systematically traces the thousand-year lineage of painting and calligraphy in Xuanzhou. With a total of 160,000 characters and organized chronologically, the book spans from the Tang Dynasty to the present day. It selects 41 renowned artists deeply connected to Xuanzhou and presents their stories in the form of cultural essays, capturing the essence of Xuanzhou's brush arts. The content covers the painting and calligraphy of scholars in the Tang and Song dynasties, the transmission of artistic schools in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the works of modern masters, and the development of contemporary calligraphy and painting-all while exploring the cultural context of Xuan paper and Xuan brushes. Through a professional yet accessible style, the book features numerous high-quality images of artworks and detailed close-ups, using visuals to complement the text. It reconstructs the artistic careers, styles, and representative works of the selected artists, filling a gap in the systematic study of historical calligraphers and painters from the Xuanzhou region. Combining academic rigor, readability, and collection value, this volume serves both as an important document for regional art historical research and as an excellent guide for art enthusiasts to understand the cultural heritage of Xuanzhou-the Home of the Four Treasures of the Study. 《宣州书画一千年》隶属 江南名邑古宣州 文史丛书,是一部系统梳理宣州千年书画文脉的专题著作。以时序为纲,上起唐代、下迄当代,甄选 41 位与宣州渊源深厚的书画名家,以文化随笔形式勾勒宣州翰墨风雅。内容涵盖唐宋文人书画、明清流派传承、近现代名家创作及当代书画发展,结合宣纸、宣笔等文房文化背景,解析地域文脉对书画艺术的滋养。作者以专业视角、通俗笔触,搭配大量作品高清图与细节特写,图文互证,还原名家创作生涯、艺术风格与代表作品,填补宣州历代书画人物系统研究的空白。全书兼具学术性、可读性与收藏价值,既是地方书画史研究的重要文献,也为艺术爱好者提供了解宣州 文房四宝之城 书画文脉的优质读本。
