Solgeo率居
1Solgeo
率居，新羅人，所出微，故不記其族系。生而善畵，嘗於皇龍寺壁畵老松，體幹鱗皴，枝葉盤屈，烏鳶燕雀，往往望之飛入。及到，蹭蹬而落。歲久色暗，寺僧以丹靑補之，鳥雀不復至。又慶州芬皇寺觀音菩薩、晋州斷俗寺維摩像，皆其筆蹟，世傳為神畵。
Solgeo was a man of Silla. What he came from was lowly, and so the line of his kin is not written down.
He was born able to paint. Once he painted an old pine on the wall of Hwangnyongsa. Its trunk and its stem were cracked like scales, and its branches and leaves were coiled and bent. Crows and kites and swallows and sparrows would sometimes see it and fly toward it, and when they reached it they lost their footing and fell.
As the years grew long the colors darkened, and the monks of the temple mended it with paint, and the birds and the sparrows came no more.
The Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara of Bunhwangsa in Gyeongju and the image of Vimalakirti of Dansoksa in Jinju are also traces of his brush, and the world hands them down as divine paintings.
