【妙笔成篇】
Xu Beihong was one of China's best-known
twentieth-century artists who is most famous
for his lively paintings of horses.
Xu Beihong followed the traditional Chinese
style of painting,so the painting Racing Horse
is known for its brush drawings in black inks
and natural colours.The painting Racing
Horse represents the personality and dream of
34
the gifted painter.
Perhaps the reason why I think it's delightful
is that I really like paintings of animals.In a
word,I am so crazy about the painting Racing
Horse,which was listed in the national level of
cultural relics.
针对训练
Mona Lisa,one of the treasures in the
Louvre Museum in Paris,is a well-known
example of Leonardo da Vinci's extraordinary
paintings.
In the painting,a beautiful woman is sitting
elegantly with an unsearchable smile,which is
considered to be one of the most mysterious
smiles in the world.Some people think she
smiles because of her kindness while others
think she smiles because of sadness.In my
view,whatever her smile means,the fact is
that she's graceful and unique.Not only is the
background of this great painting beautiful but
it (also)sets off the beauty of the woman.
In conclusion,it is a blessing that we
could enjoy such a wonderful painting.
