My system is not decent

Chapter 1834 Only by sweeping away the legacy of the 2 Han Dynasties and 6 dynasties can it be majes

No, when he saw another damaged authentic ancient bronze mirror, he made another discovery, and this time it was a big discovery.

And he was very surprised, because this discovery was in Gan Province, and a discovery here allowed him to see many top-level ancient bronze mirrors.

Moreover, these bronze mirrors are not from the same period. They seem to have been passed down in an orderly manner and were specially collected by people.

These bronze mirrors have been arranged in order from ancient times to the present. The earliest bronze mirrors are those of the Han Dynasty.

One side is a bronze mirror with regular pattern of "Changyihouwang" in Han Dynasty. Among the many bronze mirrors of Han Dynasty unearthed in modern times, the Boju pattern (rule pattern) mirror can be regarded as the best of the best.

Bo bureau pattern mirror, also known as rule pattern mirror.

The rules and moments are evenly distributed in the pattern, and the bronze mirror is used to straighten the mind, implying that people should respect the way of heaven and obey the rules in daily life.

The squares and circles of this type of bronze mirror pattern simulate the pattern of the universe, the unity of time and space.

We can get a glimpse of the aesthetics and philosophy of the Han Dynasty from the pattern of the bureau (rules).

It uses the combination of the square inner area outside the button seat and the pattern of the game to create a cosmic pattern of the sky and the earth.

The three symbols "T, L, V" are regularly distributed on the four sides of the box in the middle of the inner area with circle pattern in the outer area.

A "T"-shaped symbol is outside the center of the box, opposite to an "L"-shaped symbol.

The four corners of the box are opposite to the "V" shape symbol.

In this way, the inner area of ​​the mirror is divided into four directions, eight positions, nine palaces and twelve positions.

These symbols resemble the rules and moments in woodworking tools, so they are called "rule mirrors".

The position of the four gods on the back of the bronze mirror is strictly arranged according to the orientation and the attributes of the five elements.

This clearly reflects the relationship between the heavenly stems, earthly branches, four gods, and five elements.

There is also a bronze mirror from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which is also very special.

The bronze mirrors of the Sui Dynasty obviously have the style of Han and Wei Jin in terms of form and content.

The most typical ones are the pattern, which retains the Hanbo pattern, the animal pattern and a circle of inscriptions near the edge of the mirror.

Therefore, Sui Jing obviously innovated while inheriting the previous generation.

In addition, the auspicious animal pattern lacks the mystery and even ferocity of the beasts in the bronze mirrors of the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties, and pays more attention to realism, agility, and full of life.

Judging from the inscriptions, it has also changed from the seal and official script of the Han and Six Dynasties to the mature regular script.

In particular, its diction is gorgeous and refreshing.

Next is the Tang mirror. As I said earlier, the Tang Dynasty was the pinnacle of bronze mirror production.

What Chen Wenzhe saw this time was a bronze mirror in the shape of a Tang Luan bird and rhombus.

The creation and casting of bronze mirrors in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty has entered its heyday.

The mirror body of Tang mirror is thick and thick, and its silvery white luster is strong.

Some mirror tables are black and bright, and there are many types and innovations.

The decorations create their own world, sweeping away the legacy of the Han Dynasty and the Six Dynasties.

In terms of spirit and content, it is more free and realistic, and it looks majestic.

On the basis of the circle, Tang mirrors created square, diamond-shaped, sunflower-shaped, nest-shaped, sub-shaped and other mirror shapes and became popular.

The patterns of auspicious beasts, phoenixes, and sparrows around flowers and branches all exude a strong breath of life.

The application of high-relief carving techniques and special techniques has surpassed the bronze mirrors of all dynasties, and has truly reached an unattainable height in the history of the development of bronze mirrors in my country.

The most famous sea animal grape mirror among Tang mirrors is a model of the combination of Chinese and Western culture and art.

It fully demonstrates Datang's unprecedented open mind and inclusiveness, and demonstrates the spirit of Datang that all useful and beneficial things are for my use.

In the bronze mirror decoration, there are sea animals such as seals, fur seals and sea otters, as well as auspicious birds and beasts such as lions and peacocks.

In addition, the plump and huge grapes appeared on the bronze mirror for the first time. For a while, the spirit birds, auspicious animals, flying, pecking and rushing in the sea, land and air complement each other and merge into one mirror, reflecting the whimsy of the ancients.

After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it was the Song, Jin and Yuan Dynasties.

The Bronze Mirror with Handle of Landscape Figures in Song Dynasty is also a classic among the bronze mirrors of Song Dynasty.

Although the overall craftsmanship of bronze mirrors in the Song, Jin and Yuan Dynasties has declined from prosperity to decline, there has been a new development in terms of craftsmanship and artistic achievements, which directly affects the art of bronze mirrors in later generations.

During this period, my country's bronze mirrors went to the people on a large scale and began to be widely used by the people.

Therefore, the bronze mirrors of this period have a strong life and secular atmosphere, and a large number of flowers and figures appear.

Peonies, chrysanthemums, peach blossoms and other intertwined flowers and stories of characters once became popular elements of Song and Jin bronze mirrors.

Song mirrors are light and thin, and in addition to following the previous dynasty, there are also unique mirror shapes such as hexagonal, rectangular, bell-shaped, shield-shaped, peach-shaped, and mirrors with handles;

Its decorative art occupies an important position in the history of ancient bronze mirror technology in my country.

Especially the flower branch mirror and the flower and bird mirror, the patterns are slender and fresh, the depiction is lifelike, and they have a strong sense of reality and rhythm.

The Huzhou mirrors and figure mirrors of the Song Dynasty were also spectacular. In particular, the backs of Huzhou mirrors were often cast with workshop inscriptions, which has already sprouted the ancient people's awareness of trademarks on bronze mirrors.

Bronze mirrors of the Jin Dynasty are unique in the history of bronze mirrors. It changed the mysterious tone of subtle, hazy and abstract decorations in the past, and the intuitive, vivid and lively decorations expressed the implication that is ready to come out.

On the basis of absorbing the patterns and patterns of the bronze mirrors of the Han, Tang and Song dynasties, its decorations create new patterns.

Such as Pisces Mirror, Characters and Animals, Story Mirror of Historical Figures, etc.

The monograms on the bronze mirrors of the Jin Dynasty are also one of its most notable features.

The bronze mirrors in the Yuan Dynasty had fewer styles, thicker shapes and rough production.

The distinctive ones are the opera figure mirror and Basiba literary mirror of the Yuan Dynasty.

The fine bronze mirrors of the Song Dynasty include the bronze mirrors in the shape of Song Ya.

There is a twining peony flower at each concave corner of the back of the mirror, surrounded by parallel bead patterns, and the wide plain border is slightly thicker without ornamentation.

The Ming and Qing Dynasties are different, such as the bronze mirror with the inscription of Ming Fushou Shuangquan, which is also very distinctive.

Of course, the best and eye-catching ones must be the enamel mirrors of the Ming Dynasty.

The bronze mirrors of Ming and Qing Dynasties are in decline both in terms of craftsmanship and subject matter.

No matter the pattern decoration or craft production, it cannot be compared with the previous ones.

It is commendable that the enamel colored mirrors specially used for court casting are unique.

Its mirror is beautiful, atmospheric and magnificent.

The mirrors are large and heavy, and there are many chronicle mirrors, auspicious mirrors, antique mirrors, etc., with auspicious inscriptions or auspicious patterns cast on them, and the names of bronze mirror casting companies are often seen;

The more typical ones are the inscription mirrors with words such as "five sons ascend the imperial examination", "the number one scholar" and "happy son", which fully reflect the good wishes of people in the Ming Dynasty to pursue reality.

In the Qing Dynasty, there were more types of bronze mirrors.

During this period, the technology of making bronze mirrors also improved.

In the "Mirror Grinding Picture" by an unknown painter in the Qing Dynasty, the craftsman in the lower right corner is grinding the mirror.

The bronze mirrors of the Qing Dynasty are decorated with dragons and phoenixes, fish, lions rolling hydrangea balls, double happiness and five bats, etc.

The lacquered and gold-painted mirrors add the last bright brilliance to the bronze mirrors of the Qing Dynasty.

However, with the influx of Western glass mirrors, bronze mirrors eventually withdrew from the stage of history.

Among them are the bronze mirrors with the bead pattern of the Erlong Opera in the Qing Dynasty, which has a flat top and a round button with a bead on the button.

There is a dragon on the left and right sides of the button, facing each other head to tail, with their necks bent and their heads raised in a bead shape, and a lotus flower under the button.
