is the highest realm of artistic beauty, so it is thought much of by collectors of rain flower pebbles. Wang Xingqiu said that ‘there is poem in drawing, it is the best realm for playing stone’. Mr. Zhang Lunyuan consulted the Tasting Poem of Si Kongtu and divided the artistic conceptions of rain flower pebbles into 24 categories, which can be summed up into such two kinds as breadth and elegance. Some people in current rain flower pebbles circles think that Mr. Chi Cheng gained inspiration from the ‘If people can realize the interest among other things, it is better than traveling thousands kilometers to look for hills ’ of Zhao Jiheng, brought forward the concept of rain flower pebbles `ancient interest´, immortal interest, elegant interest, traveling interest, child’s interest, poem interest, serenity interest, nature interest, about the word ‘interest’, which are the continuance of the research on artistic conception beauty. However, I do not agree without giving serious thought, and consider it belongs to sentiment study. Even it is looked as the research on artistic conception beauty constrainedly, its artistic style is not high. To tell the truth, it is Mr. Liu Shui who really carried out actual study of monograph. He wrote relatively detailed in the monograph of artistic conception beauty, i.e. Appreciation on Rain flower Pebbles. He affirmed that the aesthetic character of artistic conception beauty is that thing and I connect each other, thing and I forget each other, thing and I united each other. He criticized somebody who adopts dream, image, illusion and odour as the character of artistic conception beauty in the appreciation of rain flower pebbles. Especially, he pointed out the artistic conception beauty of rain flower pebbles is not only as same as the artistic conception beauty of artworks, but also different to it. It has guiding significance for the practice of stone appreciation.
