魏之璜
明代吳派山水畫家
魏之璜（1568–1647），字叔考，上元（今南京）人，明代畫家。 He came from a poor family and supported them by selling his paintings. In calligraphy, he followed the style of the 'Huangting Jing,' and in landscape painting, he drew inspiration from Song Dynasty artists while creating his own new ideas. His rocks, valleys, and trees varied a lot in style. In his later years, he painted with heavy ink and worn-out brushes, giving his works an aged and solid feel. He was also skilled at painting flowers with light ink and Buddhist images. His compositions were unique, and he is considered a later follower of the Wu School, with some connection to the ancient painting style interpreted by Shen Zhou. 1609年，萬曆三十七年，他創作了扇面畫《松崖待渡圖》。1627年，天啟七年，他協助編輯胡正言的《十竹齋畫譜》。1633年，崇禎六年，他完成了長達882厘米的《墨梅卷》。至1645年，順治二年，他仍在創作《煙雨林峰圖》等作品。 他的傳世作品包括北京故宮博物院的長卷《彩山水》、美國的《二十四花曆》卷以及《秋入空山》。 明末，他與兄長魏之克在藝術界均享有盛名，常受文人官員之託作畫。
