卧听（Listening In The Depths Of The Night） (2022) 绘画 由 Zhao Yongchang

Emperor Huizong saw a flock of cranes hovering at the Xuande Gate of his imperial palace. He sensed auspicious omens, and believed that the country's fortunes could be prosperous for thousands of years, and he could drive away those natural and man-made disasters and appease the people's hearts. Even if the individual appears very insignificant in front of the huge wheel of history, there are always a group of people with lofty ideals who use their actions and conscience to transform society and write history.
Every time I appreciate "Auspicious Cranes", I also have a lot of thoughts in my heart, and I want to extend its meaning to my own creation. In the eyes of those people, the top of the palace temple symbolizes the divine providence, sacred and inviolable, and all of this comes from human fantasy and feudal superstition. My young chivalrous man lies on the top of the palace, only believing that all beauty comes from his own pursuit and actions.
