My system is not decent

"Song of West Narrowness" is one of the "Three Songs" of Han Li calligraphy in my country, and it is the best preserved treasure among ancient cliff carvings.

There are four characters of "Huian Xibiao" on the cliff wall, and the main text is inscribed with 20 lines and 385 characters.

Each character is about 4 cm square. Throughout the whole article, the authentic official script of the Han Dynasty is clearly recognizable, which is very powerful. You must know that this is definitely a fake!

In addition, around the inscriptions are Yuanfu, Qiandao, Chunxi years, Guangxu in Qing Dynasty and some famous celebrities in the period of the Republic of China.

Carved on the right side of the cliff are the nine characters "Eastern Han Dynasty Cliff Stone Carvings Ode to the West Narrow", which were inscribed by Li Keran, a famous contemporary Chinese painting master.

Because the stone carvings are in the middle of the cliff and covered by vines, there are few vertebral extensions in the past dynasties. When they were discovered, they were almost intact.

It is said that this cliff carving was discovered by a woodcutter.

Between the sky and the canyon, there are endless waves. The treasure of Chinese civilization more than 1800 years ago is extremely proud, and at the same time, we have to admire the talent and courage of the ancients.

"Ode to Xizao" is listed as the "Three Odes" of calligraphy in the Han Dynasty, together with "Ode to Shimen" in Xishan Hanzhong and "Ode to Yunge" in Lueyang. Words are not damaged, especially precious.

The full name of "Ode to the West Narrowness" is "The Ode to the West Gorge of Hanyang Heyang Lixi, the Prefect of the Han Dynasty Wudu", commonly known as the "Yellow Dragon Stele".

It is engraved in a recess of the cliff body, which is protected from the sun and rain, and is well preserved.

Seeing these man-made landscapes, Chen Wenzhe was really amazed.

He really didn't expect that stone carving could play like this.

Here is a copy of a large cliff, and the carvings are vivid.

Even if it is reduced by tens of thousands of times, this is considered a miracle, right?

To be able to replicate a landscape, Chen Wenzhe really doesn't know how much time and effort it took to complete it.

And in it, how much skill is contained in it?

You know, he also has a high attainment in stone carving, so can he also create some peerless landscapes?

This time is an opportunity. In this stone carving factory that he accidentally saw, he can learn too many stone carving skills.

With this idea in mind, Chen Wenzhe carefully sorted out the stone carvings here.

Only then did he realize that these stone sculptures were definitely not placed randomly.

People place them in an orderly manner according to the time of day. Of course, some of them are classified differently. For example, there are a lot of stone carvings with dragon patterns, and many of them are put together.

With the idea of ​​learning, Chen Wenzhe slowly strolled around this seemingly small stone carving factory, which actually occupies a vast area.

Our country has a long history. During the long Old and Neolithic Ages, stone tool processing was the means for the primitive ancestors in Lingnan to make a living.

In Hong Kong, Macau and Zhuhai at the mouth of the Pearl River, many rock carvings have been found, all of which are mainly complex abstract patterns.

Those rock carvings use chiseling techniques, especially the rock carvings on Gaolan Island, Nanshui Town, Zhushi City.

The largest one is 3 meters high and 5 meters long. It is chiseled in plain text and has clear lines. Figures and boat carvings can also be recognized from the complex lines.

According to research, the age of the rock carvings here is about 1000 BC, which is the work of the Bronze Age.

Of course, Chen Wenzhe is not familiar with these stone carvings, but he is more familiar with the tomb carvings he saw next.

Because these stone carvings seem to come from South Vietnam.

If something from South Vietnam appears in China, it is of course something from the king of South Vietnam.

A long time ago, the ruins of the Nanyue Palace Office had been discovered.

There are many octagonal prism-shaped stone railings with square bases, which are the earliest known stone railing components in the history of Chinese architecture.

The Nanyue Kingdom Yuyuan Site, the stone pools paved with ice cracks made of stone slabs, the winding stone canals, the stone chambers erected by huge stone slabs, and various stone components are the first to be seen in the Qin and Han Dynasties in my country.

The tomb of Zhao Mei, king of Nanyue, is the largest known stone tomb in south of the Five Ridges so far, and the huge stone in the tomb weighs 2.6 tons.

244 pieces (sets) of jade objects unearthed from the tomb.

These include 71 pieces of jade walls, two sapphire round-carved dancing girls, and a green-and-white jade-carved horn cup with embossed scroll cloud patterns.

There are also jade clothes with silk carvings, jade belt hooks with dragons and tigers side by side, jade pendants with double rings with dragon and phoenix patterns, and walls with animal heads, all of which are exquisite treasures.

This reflects the superb craftsmanship of jade processing at that time. It can be seen that the Nanyue Kingdom has mastered cutting, modeling, drilling, cutting, polishing, reforming and inlay techniques.

In the Nanyue king's tomb, talc ovens, ear cups, pigs, pillows, stone inkstones, and research stones were also found.

Stone sharpening and finely ground stone axes, etc., show that stone carving is also a craft that is valued.

From the origin of human art, the history of stone carving began.

It can be said that among the all-encompassing art forms of human beings so far, none of them can be older than stone carving.

Of course, there is no art form that is more popular and enduring than stone carving.

The history of stone carving can be traced back to the middle Paleolithic period 20 million years ago.

Since then, stone carving has been handed down to this day.

In this long history, the creation of stone carving art has also been constantly updated and improved.

In different periods, stone carvings have undergone great changes in types and styles;

Different needs, different aesthetic pursuits, different social environments and social systems are restricting the development and evolution of stone carving creation.

The history of stone carving is the history of art, a history with rich cultural connotations, and a vivid and real human history.

Now that I have seen the imitation stone carvings of the Nanyue King, the next step must be stone carvings from the pre-Qin period.

However, this time, Chen Wenzhe did not rush to take a closer look, but continued to move forward. Sure enough, the historical sense behind it was stronger. These imitations were definitely the rock carvings of ancient ancestors.

Around 1 years ago, the primitive ancestors bid farewell to the gathering and hunting economy, ended their wandering life and entered the settled Neolithic Age.

At this time, people began to engage in settlement life mainly based on farming and animal husbandry.

When the primitive people bid farewell to the collection and hunting environment of the mountains and forests, and moved to the banks and hills of the plains, the vivid hunting arts of the past did not reappear.

It has been found that the painted pottery patterns of the Neolithic Age are often concise, generalized, abstract, deformed, and even geometrically formalized animal patterns.

Therefore, in areas where the Neolithic Revolution flourished, rock carvings and petroglyphs have taken a backseat or even disappeared.

The ancestors of the Neolithic Age in our country were able to make pottery about 1 years ago, but only entered the age of painted pottery about 8000-[-] years ago.

In contrast, the technology of grinding stone tools invented by ancient humans in our country was used in the late Paleolithic.

The stone decorations of the Cavemen on the top of the mountain were made by drilling and piercing, which is a milestone in the history of ancient Chinese sculpture.

Because, only with the invention of grinding technology, stone will become an invincible carving material for human beings.
