Why is hairtail in Zhang Dazhuang sought after?

Why is hairtail popular in Zhang Dazhuang? In the history of painting in China, from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties to modern times, there were more than 1000 painters who were good at painting fish, such as Yunnan Tian, Badashanren, Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian. Carp in Wu Qingxia and goldfish in Wang Yachen became the artist's business cards. The ancients and predecessors were masters who were good at painting fish. The fish they wrote were all freshwater fish, commonly known as river fish, but I'm afraid Zhang Dazhuang was the only one who painted with marine fish as the theme. The seemingly simple hairtail has made great efforts in painting techniques. Zhang Dazhuang first wrote fish heads with Jiao Mo, but the tortuous fish body was swept away with light ink, with concise pen and ink, vivid modeling and strong artistic appeal. Zhang Dazhuang, Tang Yun, Lu Yifei and Jiang Hanting are also known as the four famous flowers of Shanghai style. His flower-and-bird paintings are clean and beautiful, and he likes to draw vegetables, fruits, shrimps and crabs, which are lifelike and have a unique charm. Mr. Lu and Mr. Lu also said from the bottom of their hearts: Zhang Dazhuang is the only immortal figure in today's painting world. But judging from the current market price, it is far from the other three. Especially from the art auction market, it is difficult for his works to get high prices. Even when the calligraphy and painting market was hot, his paintings were not sought after by the market. The reason is that the industry believes that this is mainly because there are not many representative and observable works. However, since 2005, this situation has begun to change. At that time, the swordfish he harvested was valued at 50,000 to 60,000 yuan at an autumn auction in Shanghai, and the transaction price reached 253,000 yuan. The vertical axis of the hairtail map once again exceeded 200,000 yuan, which will undoubtedly reposition its market price. Xiao Fang
