An Analysis of the Artistic Characteristics of Botanical Patterns in the Silk Fabrics of the Eastern Zhou and Chu States
The silk fabrics excavated from the Eastern Zhou Chu tombs are rich in botanical patterns,with vivid and varied shapes,which are the physical embodiment of the Chu people's national spirit,aesthetic interests,and the pursuit of values.Taking the botanical patterns on the silk fabrics unearthed in Mashan No.1 Chu Tomb as the research object,we use the research methods such as literature research,image analysis,and two-fold evidence to explore the composition form,aesthetic characteristics,and causes of the botanical patterns on the silk fabrics.The research shows that as early as in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty,a large number of botanical patterns exist on the silk fabrics of Chu,and the natural wisdom of the Chu people and cultural exchanges contribute to the vivid styling of the botanical patterns,skillful collocation,and flexible craftsmanship techniques.The suitable environment and the influence of Taoist thought promote the emergence and development of botanical patterns,and the intermingling of upper class and lower class cultures make botanical patterns both secular and ceremonial.
