介绍（中）	至少从汉朝（公元前206年至公元220年）开始，对历史上虔诚和忠诚的典范的描绘就一直是传递这些美德的重要方法。11世纪，学者艺术家李公麟（约1041-1106年）的《孝经》赋予了这一传统新的意义，其中简单的单色画不仅说明了文本，而且对当代社会做出了微妙的评论。在这幅画中，来自苏州的鲜为人知的艺术家王尚功通过在题材和风格上复兴李公麟的传统，重振了艺术家作为社会评论家的角色。生活在万历皇帝（1573-1620年在位）的统治下，万历皇帝在其统治的最后二十五年里拒绝出庭，王对重要主题做出了解释，比如官员告诫统治者和皇帝接见大臣，这对他的同时代人来说一定有着特殊的意义。王的白描风格受到了李公麟单色绘画方法的启发，但达到了一个新的水平，即薄纱般的纤薄和精致，这预示着十六世纪末和十七世纪初丁云鹏、吴斌和陈洪寿等知名艺术家的风格创新。
介绍（英）	Illustrations of historical paragons of piety and loyalty have been an important method of transmitting those virtues since at least the Han dynasty (206 B.C.–A.D. 220). In the eleventh century, the scholar-artist Li Gonglin (ca. 1041–1106) gave new meaning to this tradition with his Classic of Filial Piety, in which simple monochrome drawings not only illustrate the text but also present subtle commentaries on contemporary society. In this painting, Wang Shanggong, a little-known artist from Suzhou, reinvigorated the role of artist as social critic by reviving the Li Gonglin tradition in both subject matter and style. Living under the rule of the Wanli emperor (r. 1573–1620), who refused to come to court for the last twenty-five years of his reign, Wang presented interpretations of important themes, such as officials admonishing their ruler and the emperor receiving his ministers, which must have held particular significance for his contemporaries. Wang's extraordinarily fine baimiao (plain-drawing) style was inspired by the monochrome drawing method of Li Gonglin but attained a new level of gossamer thinness and delicacy that anticipates the stylistic innovations of such better-known late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century artists as Ding Yunpeng, Wu Bin, and Chen Hongshou.
