담채 산수와 묵죽의 대가
Zhao Yuan(赵原), whose original name was Yuan(元), courtesy name Shanchang(善长), and art name Danlin(丹林), was a painter from Ju(莒) County, Shandong. His birth and death years are unknown. He lived during the late Yuan and early Ming periods and spent a long time in Suzhou. He learned landscape painting from Dong Yuan and Wang Meng, often creating light red landscapes with strong, elegant brushwork. He was also good at painting ink bamboo, with varied techniques, earning titles like 'dragon horn,' 'phoenix tail,' and 'gold inlay knife.' 원나라 말기, 조원은 고영, 니찬, 왕몽 등 유명한 문인들과 교유했다. 명나라 초기, 그는 궁정으로 소환되었으나 공신들의 초상화를 그리는 과정에서 황제의 기대에 부응하지 못해 처형되었다. 그의 현존 작품으로는 『합계초당도』(상하이 박물관 소장)와 『육우팽차도』(대만 타이베이 국립고궁박물원 소장)가 있다.
