조함미(曹涵美)가 그린 『금병매화집』(金甁梅畵集)의 심리 표현 연구

Abstract

The 500 pieces of Illustrations of Jin Ping Mei(金甁梅畫集) drawn by Cao Hanmei(曹涵美), in the outstanding achievements of the Chinese classic novel Jin Ping Mei(金甁梅), are especially expressed in terms of the psychological aspects of people and readers, with high added value. People's faces and buildings used traditional depictions, but in many ways, from shapes to spatial composition, he made new attempts to build unique and creative screens. We saw this book as well worth analyzing. Above all, it was confirmed that the artist was superior in psychological expression(心理表現), which is unusual in other figures, especially in terms of how the painter interpreted the novel. Looking at the linear aspect, which is the basic element of vision, the painter expresses the psychology of the person in the novel and the psychology of the reader who sees the image in exposed clothes, and at the same time, directly expresses foot-binding(纏足). The traditional tastes and abnormal psychology were shown. The painter's understanding of the space is also psychologically unique. Unstable psychology is drawn to the extreme perspective, and sometimes people are brought close to each other and the scene is brought up close, creating a feeling that the reader is in the middle of the scene. Above all, by adopting the viewpoint of looking at the painter's line of sight from the height of the person's knee, he showed more psychology than looking at a female person who had the effect of putting the person on the stage. This seems to be a good interpretation of features of the novel Jin Ping Mei. Peeping and eavesdropping are novels, maidens and boots listen and see this, convey their psychology to the reader, have the psychology on both sides by alternately depicting the viewer and the person who sees, and psychology and tension were shown by engrave drawing technique. Psychological expressions in illustrations depicting classic novels were very rare, if any. However, it have made a completely new attempt on the Cao Hanmei’s picture, such as lines, planes, spaces, perspectives, and lines of sight. All these attempts reveal that Jin Ping Mei has been visually reinterpreted in a new and unprecedented creative space. In view of these points, Illustrations of Jin Ping Mei can be an unprecedented achievement in the visualization of novels.
