介绍（中）	从19世纪后期文人画家的古体研究中借鉴的浑圆厚重的笔触在吴的这幅精美的水墨画中清晰可见作为一名清朝官员，吴参与了19世纪历史上的几件大事。1884年，清政府代表国王介入安南对抗法国时，吴被派往天津保卫这座城市，以抵御法国的进攻。作为广东总督，他就继续通过广东和澳门流入该国的鸦片的关税进行了谈判，但没有成功，他建议不要将澳门割让给葡萄牙人。作为河南的省长，他提高了利润丰厚的丝绸和茶叶行业的生产标准。1894年中日战争爆发，吴率军保卫北部战略要隘，兵败后被撤职，此后闲暇之余，致力于培养诗人、书法家、篆刻家、鉴赏家、收藏家、金石家、画家等人才。
介绍（英）	The round, weighty brush strokes borrowed from the study of archaic scripts by late 19th century scholar artists are clearly seen in this fine ink landscape by Wu Dacheng. As a Qing official, Wu Dacheng was a participant in several important events in 19th century history. When the Qing intervened in Annam in 1884 on behalf of the king against the French, Wu was sent to Tientsin to defend the city against the French attack. As governor of Guangdong, he negotiated customs duties on opium that continued to flow into the country through Canton and Macao, and without success recommended against ceding Macao to the Portuguese. As governor of Henan, he raised the standards of production in the lucrative silk and tea industries. When the Sino-Japanese War broke out in 1894, Wu took troops to defend a strategic northern mountain pass. His troops were defeated and he was dismissed from his post, after which he devoted his leisure to cultivating his talents as poet, calligrapher, seal cutter, connoisseur, collector, epigrapher and painter.
