畫中戲，戲中人──徐悲鴻「放下你的鞭子」

摘要

徐悲鴻(1895-1953)一生曾經七次到過新加坡，留下許多膾炙人口的名作，繪於1939年的油畫「放下你的鞭子」即為其中之一。

本文作者親自前往徐悲鴻繪製「放下你的鞭子」的「江夏堂」畫室考察，敘述此畫作的流傳情形，分析畫中人王瑩(1913-1974)的生平和其文藝創作，得知「放下你的鞭子」並非徐悲鴻觀賞王瑩演出的寫實作品，而是一幅想像構設的肖像畫。

至於司徒喬的「放下你的鞭子」，才是這齣抗戰街頭劇在新加坡的歷史紀錄。本文比較兩幅同題之作，以及當時歌詠這兩幅作品的題畫詩，以彰顯其藝術價值。

Painting, Drama and the Actress: “Put down Your Whip” Painted by Xu Beihong


Abstract

Xu Beihong (1895-1953) visited Singapore seven times throughout his entire life and he left many renowned masterpieces here, one of them was the 1939 oil painting entitled “Put down Your Whip”.

The author had visited the house of “Jiang Xia Tang” where Xu Beihong had drawn the painting “Put down Your Whip” in an attempt to have a better understanding of the style of this painting, and at the same time analyze the main character of the painting, known as Wang Ying (1913-1974) for her background and literary creation . During the visit, the author realized that this painting was Wang Ying’s portrait.

The oil painting “Put down Your Whip” drawn by Situ Qiao(1902-1958), was the real historical record of anti-Japanese war in Singapore. A comparison will be made between these two identically named paintings drawn by the two painters, and compare the poems on these two paintings, hence showing its artistic value.

Keywords: Xu Beihong, Wang Ying, Situ Qiao, Put down Your Whip, Singapore, Jiang Xia Tang
