Sculptors often use relatively hard stone, such as peach, apricot, olive, nut, walnut, etc. made into subtle elegance of the process works. Nuclear carving art in the Ming Dynasty has reached a very high level.

Wang Yi, Zi Shu Yuan, No. Hermit first level, roughly to the revelation of life in the Wanli years. He specializes in miniature, long an inch in diameter can be carved out of wood houses, equipment, people, and even birds and animals, wood and stone of these things. And can be based on the original look of wood, simulation of those things you want to create the shape of sculptures, figures of animals and birds have their own air. Revelation two years (116 years), in autumn, according to Wang Yi Su Song, a great writer. Open for the famous "Red Cliff", the idea of ​​making a wall depicting scenes of Su Peach night show boat carving. Nuclear boat from start to finish only about eight long, two yellow rice so high. Clear place in the Gochang cabin, covered with carved out good bottle. Next to open the little window, so all four. Opened the window view, carved railings on both sides of the relative. Close the window, you can see on the right inscribed "high mountains on a small, get to the bottom," the left inscribed "breeze, the waves of fashion" of the couplet. Three people sitting surface ship. Middle wear a dunce cap covered with beard, of course, Su, flanked by his friend Huang Ting Yin and monks. Su Huang watch with a roll of paintings, Yin monk looked up at the sky. Yin hang a rosary on his left hand, Lilikeshuo. Cross stood a stern paddle, paddle on each side a boatman. Boatman giving her the right vertebral-shaped hair damage. Yang Zhelian, summarized from the lips of the kind of call for the tsunami. That the left, right hand holding a Livistona fan, left almost touched the stove, a kettle of stew on the stove. Relatively flat bottom, with the inscription "Apocalypse Saigon autumn. Yushan Wang Yishu just carved away," writing, such as mosquitoes slender legs, a hook of a painting, are very clear. There is a Zhuanwen seal, engraved in a book, "Chu-ping Hermit." Satisfied only an inch on its nuclear boat, engraved with a total of five, eight windows, bamboo canopy, wood pulp, stove, kettle, frame, beads each one, couplets, nice design chapter title, a total of 34 individual words . Called the Seven Wonders of the masterpiece. After the nuclear boat carved, Wang presented to the opera house of his friend Lee Hua, Lee Walter as "nuclear boat Ji", income in his collected works. Subsequently, a Ming Dynasty scholar Wei Luo reference and a half learning the "nuclear boat in mind," the article, also wrote the article the same name. Two languages ​​and similar, striking literary grace, two descendants of the text, as has been the masterpiece of classical literature, competing to be circulated. Wang Yi's miniature art is so spread open.

For a long time, at home and abroad has not been found in Wang's nuclear boat exhibits and photos, enjoy less than its true charm. Changshu Museum has a nuclear boat, is the sculptor Du Shi Qing Yuan's works, non-Wang for. Ningbo found in this nuclear boat, according to experts to determine, to determine the later years of his masterpiece. Wang Yi visited Ningbo, and produced a "mini-wood-day closure tower." Ningbo found nuclear boat, in the production of art even more than in the "nuclear boat in mind," the article described, the most that experts wonder is that this core boat tail length 2.9 cm, width 2 cm, width to length ratio is about 1:1.45, are mathematical "golden" ratio. "Golden Section" of the ratio between the artwork has been applied in the Ming Dynasty, the first time discovered in China.

As Peach Ma irregular pattern, numerous small holes in depth at its core, carving the design layout is extremely difficult, demanding process, often only a million people in the choice of materials to pick one, so Peach stone carving of a boat is considered closed. Only one person in the Ming Dynasty, Wang Yi, also in the number of the Qing Dynasty can only master a handful of several surgeon. The experts therefore believe that the production of Ningbo Ming Wang found Peach boat is the world's oldest existing stone in sculpture, form the smallest nuclear boat, this national treasure recovered, picked to fill the core of China's Ming Dynasty, the existing gaps in the boat, but also strong Wang Yi, who demonstrated extraordinary skill in Changshu membership craftsmen.
