Analysis of Tang and Song dynasty Baoxiang flower pattern images from the perspective of semiotics
As one of the classic patterns in Chinese traditional culture,the Baoxianghua,which was introduced into China due to the spread of Bud-dhism,has gradually evolved into one of the traditional Chinese patterns with the integration and development of the local culture.Saussure's the-ory of energy and reference in semiotics was taken as a perspective to explore the Baoxianghua,one of the traditional Chinese patterns.The image in terms of its referential and denotational aspects was analyzed and researched through the two time phases of Tang and Song to provide a theo-retical basis for the design application of Baoxianghua pattern,and expects to better carry forward the essence of Baoxianghua culture in the future design practice,and to inject more creativity and cultural value into the field of design.
