山水 Landscape 鈐印：琴禪（朱文） With one seal of the artist 「將軍畫家」余承堯戎馬倥傯二十餘年，於退役後的下半生才提筆作畫。憑藉著與生俱來的藝術天分，以自然為師，把年輕時走遍的大江南北山勢，自創亂筆皴法表現於山水畫。1980年台灣藝壇的鼎盛時期，余承堯已被廣泛關注，曾被藝術家王季遷譽為「可能是王蒙第二」，後來於《自由中國評論》發表的〈余承堯的才華與靈視〉專文，重新引起國內外畫壇的重視，曾於美國、法國舉辦個展或聯展發表，為台灣現代水墨畫帶領至國外。此畫由多重視覺編排而成，上半部分自山腰嶙峋岩壁陡峭而立，遠處淡墨隱約染出岩峰輪廓屹立天際。近觀山壁斷崖險峻，以亂筆交錯刻畫岩石嶙峋的質感，筆勢得篆書之蒼拙，草書之速度，筆墨紛亂的表現，隨著濃淡的墨韻，帶出節奏與韻律，奏出生命力的樂章。淡褐色的峭壁以綠黃色相間點染，為納悶枯燥的山石，增添山林葳蕤的意味。畫面的中下段從爬山者的視覺俯瞰悠悠流動的小河流，為靜謐的山景，帶來澹泊文人雅致。 Known as a general-painter, Yu Cheng-yao began his artistic career after 20 years of serving as a general of the army. With his talents and observation of nature, he reinvented cun strokes to depict the majestic landscapes he visited at his early age. In the 1980s when the art market flourished in Taiwan, Yu Cheng-yao was widely known for his artistic talents. C. C. Wang praised Yu as an artist with the style of old master Wang Meng. Yu was also widely analyzed in the Free China Review, arousing interests from the local and international art circles. Yu was featured in solo and joint exhibitions in France andthe US, leading the modern Taiwanese ink art towards the international art scene. This painting was composed with multiple perspectives with the upper half of the panel featuring rugged mountains looming over the panel. Light ink brushes across the back forming layers of mountainous rocks. The rugged cliff was enhanced by intersecting lines highlighted with the sturdiness of seal script and the rapid movement of cursive script. Various gradations of ink enhance the tone and rhythmic representation of this symphony of life. Light ochre enlivened by yellow and green among the rocks, representing the vivid nature of luscious forest. The lower panel was depicted from the perspective of a hiker looking down towards the gentle stream, enlivening the tranquil surroundings on the panel.

蜀山舊懷 Reminiscence of Shushan 釋文：蜀山向遠峻，處處峰尖情。今日重近憶，徒增思舊懷。款識：余承堯。鈐印：余承堯印（白文） Signed YU Cheng-yao in Chinese With one seal of the artist 余承堯自青年投筆從戎，軍旅二十三年，十九歲加入反抗北洋軍閥，後來遠赴日本早稻田大學修讀經濟，後轉入日本陸軍士官學校。學成回國後擔任黃埔軍校擔任戰術教官，曾參與多場戰役，歷任高級軍職，目睹中國華夏各種磅礴山川，這些山勢重現於後來的書畫創作裡。余承堯於1954年開始執筆畫畫，雖無師承，其創作風格獨特無二，創新的墨點線條在書畫藝壇為之一亮，以錯綜的山石紋理和延綿重疊的山巒突顯藝術家詮釋的山水景象，也對應藝術家面對著河川山脈的感情與回憶。自中年退出商場，余承堯提筆作畫，雖無師承，師從自然，其筆墨卻在自我領悟的過程中孕育自我風格，詮釋山河的雄奇壯麗。「畫幅要畫得滿滿的，天空也不可留太多」屏棄傳統文人畫的大幅留白的做法，讓余承堯的山水作品主題集中描繪山形地勢與大自然，直指萬物繁盛與生命力本心，是藝術家最大自然最坦誠率真的表現。此幅畫面以三分之二的篇幅描繪四川地形陡峭險峻及層巒疊嶂的山勢，是余承堯從軍時期對蜀山的回憶與情懷。峻奇雄偉的山勢之下以密結紛亂的筆觸描繪山林葳蕤，左下方的樹林白花盛開，彷彿回憶在蜀山時期看到當地的白辛樹繁花盛開，春風送來百鳥高歌，看似無序的亂筆，描繪的卻是草木繁盛的生命力。山河自峭壁悠悠流向下游，堅硬頑強的石頭冒出水面，呼應山上的寥寥數間村屋與蜿蜒曲折的山路，反映萬物與大自然和諧共存與互相尊敬的態度，也是藝術家對大自然的緬懷與敬仰。 Yu Cheng-yao joined the army from a young age at 19 and pursued his studies in Japan on economics. He joined the military school in Japan, and later returned to Huangpu Military school as a professor. With years of experience as a senior official in the army, Yu visited the majestic landscapes of China, which later appeared in his artwork. Yu started painting in 1954 without following classical practice. Hence his works are unique in composition and representation. The texture of rocks and the layers of hills are represented in his works as a tribute towards his passion towards the landscape. At an mature age, Yu Cheng-yao started drawing with the Nature as his teacher. The brush and ink allowed Yu to express his unique character and his own interpretation of the landscape. "The painting has to be full framed without much space for the sky." By wiping out blank spaces, Yu allowed his work to focus on the landscape and the vibrancy of Nature, making his work the most genuine representation. Using two thirds of the panel describing the landscape of Sichuan, its ruggedness with overlapping layers. This is Yu's impression and passion of Sichuan or Shushan. The majestic view was enhanced with vibrancy by the criss cross strokes. Trees on the lower left blossom with white flowers, as if Yu was recalling the typical trees of Shushan. The intersecting lines depicted the lively growth of trees, as it echoes with the sounds of spring birds. As the stream flows downwards, rocks arise in their rigid rugged forms, echoing with the cottages along the meandering roads. Their composition highlights the respect of people towards nature, which echoes with the artist's love for nature.
