晚清常州赵起约园复原及山水营造探析

摘要:
【目的】约园是常州现存清代私家园林中面积最大者,今仅山水格局保存较完整。当前针对约园的复原研究涵盖的时间范围跨度较大,且对其各时期园林景象的描述较为杂糅。【方法】基于对可获得史料的对比考证以及对现有研究成果的整合辨析,以首任园主赵起所居约园为研究对象,补充赵起亲友及其他约园亲历者的文章作为指导依据。【结果】细化讨论了约园构园初期的空间布局,探讨赵起约园复原方案的其他可能性。以此为基石,重点分析赵起约园的掇山置石与理水,总结山水方面的造园特点。赵起约园造园风格整体反映了清中后期江南造园的时代特色,园林空间呈现多组团、多视点的特点。作为功能复合的傍宅空间,约园同时满足了园主日常读书会友活动与追寻山水林泉之乐的需求。“岛山置水”的独特山水组织方式以及分离观赏的掇山与置石,受到晚明后“画意掇山”观念变迁的影响,兼顾了园林游观的动静体验。【结论】常州约园研究是对苏州、扬州等焦点江南城市以外晚清文人园林的山水范式与营园特色进行还原与分析的一次探索,丰富了对传统江南文人园林的共性与个性的认识,为晚清江南园林研究以及后续其他常州园林复原研究提供借鉴。

Restoration and Landscape Construction of Zhao Qi’s Yue Garden in Changzhou in Late Qing Dynasty

Abstract:
[Objective] Yue Garden in Changzhou is the largest ancient private garden in Qing Dynasty that is still existing nowadays. Built and initially owned by Zhao Qi, the grandson of Zhao Yi, a preeminent scholar in Qing Dynasty, the garden was widely known during the reign of Emperors Daoguang and Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty. In 1860, Yue Garden was destroyed. It was later rebuilt by Zhao Qi’s descendants and has undergone several repairs and restorations in modern times. Thus, the present scenery in the garden is vastly different from what it was when Zhao Qi was still alive. The restoration of historical gardens is an important element of the historical and theoretical researches on gardens. Recent researches on Yue Garden have reviewed the evolution of the garden over a long time span and described its internal scenery during various periods. However, there still exists some gap in the research on Yue Garden. So far, most researches on the spatial layout of Yue Garden are conducted by local scholars in Changzhou. In some existing researches, the features of attractions in Yue Garden at different periods are mixed up, which is prone to mislead readers. In view of this, this research further excavates some firsthand historical materials. Moreover, according to relevant documents available in historical materials related to Yue Garden, those really valuable and credible are mostly concentrated between the Daoguang and Guangxu periods in Qing Dynasty. [Methods] This research further narrows the time frame for the elaboration of scenery in Yue Garden, with a view to filling the gap in the research on Yue Garden and providing a basis for the conservation and display of the garden. Moreover, this research serves as an exploration of the landscape paradigm and gardening characteristics of literati gardens outside focal Jiangnan cities such as Suzhou and Yangzhou in the late Qing Dynasty. Taking Zhao Qi’s Yue Garden rather than Zhao family’s Yue Garden during Qing Dynasty as research object, this research implements a comparative review of available historical materials and an integration and analysis of existing research results, while referring to some new documents. The research mainly aims to figure out what Yue Garden looked like in early times through a number of historical documents such as paintings, literature and local records about the garden (main artifacts for the restoration research), supplemented by articles written by Zhao Qi’s family, friends, and other visitors to Yue Garden. Further, the research revaluated the spatial location of garden elements in Yue Garden, and explores a possible restoration scheme for Yue Garden. In order to reconstruct this historical garden, of which few vestiges remain, the research draws a new restoration plan of Yue Garden based on image analysis, documentary comparison, and textual hierarchical review. [Results] Compared with the original restoration plan of Yue Garden drawn by scholar Luo Xinghai, the new scheme incorporates the following speculations and modifications. 1) It combines satellite images and mapping data to correct the scale of Luo’s scheme. 2) It rectifies that beyond the eastern wall of Yue Garden is the residence of the Zhao family rather than the woods. 3) It adds details to the southeast corner of the garden based on the high resolution painting of Yue Garden. 4) It expresses different opinions on the existence of individual bridges in the garden, the short embankment, and the pavilion near “Nanshan”, the hill in the middle of the garden. 5) It makes new speculations about the location of the medicine garden based on the descriptions thereof in Zhao Qi’s literary works. According to its restoration research results, this research identifies the garden’s landscape layout features, with a focus on the gardening methods of rockery and water. The research finds that the overall layout of Yue Garden generally reflects the gardening style of private gardens in the Jiangnan region during the period from the middle Ming to the late Qing Dynasty, presenting multiple spatial groups and multiple viewpoints. Yue Garden can well satisfy the demands of the former owner for such pastimes as reading, meeting friends, and enjoying the natural landscape. Taking the shape of water surface in the garden as a reference, the research establishes that, from east to west, the garden can be roughly divided into three small spaces centered on each main pond. Waterfront buildings built around the ponds blend with the rocks, flowers, and trees to form a beautiful picture. The traffic routes of each sub-district are circular, mostly connected by pavilions and connecting corridors. In terms of the stacking of rocks and the organization of water system, it has been speculated that Yue Garden adopts the landscape organization style of “building an island in a pond”, while the placement of hills and free-standing rocks therein is influenced by the gardening concept of “picturesque rockery” prevailing after late Ming Dynasty. In tandem with the style of “building an island in a pond”, the water body of the garden is shaped differently from that of traditional Jiangnan private gardens. Specifically, the design of water system in traditional Jiangnan private gardens tends to highlight the broadness of the central water surface, while that in Yue Garden emphasizes the viewing of landscape across the river and the changing beauty of landscape in times of viewing by boat. The organization of water space in the Garden perfectly balances the dynamic and static viewing experience, while providing a new environment for people to relax and experience idyllic water activities during Qing Dynasty. [Conclusion] The findings of this research enrich our understanding of the commonalities and individualities of traditional Jiangnan literati gardens. They also provide a reference for the research on Jiangnan gardens in the late Qing Dynasty, and for other subsequent researches on the restoration of gardens in Changzhou.
