Tang Dynasty packaged cultural relics
There were some examples of packaging cultural relics in the Tang Dynasty for reference. For example, the secret colored porcelain unearthed from the underground palace of the Fa Men Temple. When the Tang Dynasty people packed the secret colored porcelain, they first found a very thin paper with a beautiful woman's pattern to wrap the secret colored porcelain piece by piece, then stacked it up and placed it in a wooden box.

These newly unearthed cultural relics are pottery from the Tang Dynasty
The porcelain of the Tang Dynasty had unique characteristics and craftsmanship. Porcelains of the Tang Dynasty were graceful and vigorous, like white porcelain from Xing Kiln. Their shapes showed the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. The white porcelain of Xing Kiln had no patterns and had the natural beauty of natural carving. Even if there were decorative techniques, they mostly appeared in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. The common decorative methods were printing, pressing edges, and flower openings. The decorative patterns on the porcelain of the Tang Dynasty were a direct manifestation of the development of the aesthetic consciousness of the Tang Dynasty. For example, when Buddhism was prevalent, the decorative patterns on the Buddhist offerings were mostly based on elements related to Buddha, such as lotus patterns, sunflower petals, lotus leaves, and precious flowers. The lotus patterns had a strong Buddhist symbolic meaning, and the precious flowers contained auspicious and beautiful meanings and enriched the traditional China patterns. Changsha kiln porcelain paintings were rich and colorful, with flowers, trees, birds, animals, mountains, rivers and people as the main characters. The painting techniques were varied. Some were outlined in a single line, some were rendered in color, and some were splashed with ink. The composition was simple but the artistic conception was profound. Moreover, the stamping and printing techniques on Changsha kiln porcelain were influenced by the gold and silver ware of the Western Regions. They were transplanted from the hammering and stamping of gold and silver ware to become decorative features. Tri-colored glazed pottery of the Tang Dynasty was fresh in color, mainly yellow, green and white. It needed to be processed twice. First, it was fired into a plain body, then glazed and then fired at a low temperature (800 - 1100 ° C) in the kiln. The texture was crisp and was often used in tombs. Due to the popularity of the concept of "lavish burial to show filial piety", the number of tombs unearthed could sometimes reach 100. Many of the pottery figurines, such as the three-colored camel and the Western Regions, could show the free and diverse social style of the Tang Dynasty. Twisted body porcelain was also known as stirred body porcelain. It was directly kneaded and kneaded with a porcelain body. After it was made into shape, it was poured with a layer of transparent glaze and fired. The texture was connected inside and outside. In the Tang Dynasty, the texture of the twisted body was elegant, intertwined and varied endlessly. If the newly unearthed cultural relics were Tang Dynasty porcelain, they could be identified, analyzed, and studied from these aspects. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Tang Feng cultural relics
Tang Feng cultural relics had a unique artistic style and historical value. The following were some typical Tang Dynasty relics: - ** Calligraphy and Painting Category **: - **<<The Sixth Incomplete Volume of Shi Shuo Xin Shu>>(Tang Dynasty)**: This is a paper copy. It is 27.1 centimeters long and 397.0 centimeters wide. It is a copy of <<Shi Shuo Xin Shu>> written by Liu Yiqing during the Six Dynasties of China. It was probably copied in the Tang Dynasty and is currently the oldest copy known. The writing style was elegant and powerful, with a unique typography format. Moreover, due to the addition of ancient Japanese symbols to interpret ancient China characters, it could be seen that it had been introduced to Japan very early on. This reflected the influence of the Tang Dynasty in cultural communication, and its calligraphy also reflected the characteristics of the writing style at that time. - ** Tang Feng Tu (Southern Song Dynasty Ma He edition)**: Silk book with light colors, 28.7 cm high, 827.1 cm long, a total of 12 sections. It is based on the 12 chapters of the Book of Songs, Tang Feng, and is now in the Museum of Liaoning Province, the National Museum of Kyoto in Japan, and the Palace Museum in Beijing. It used a vivid artistic image to interpret the originally difficult to understand "Tang Feng" poem. The composition was refined, and the picture concept, artistic conception, and shape were all unique. From the side, it reflected the influence of the Tang Dynasty culture on the later painting creation in terms of material selection and artistic expression. - Exhibits such as famous paintings and calligraphy of the Tang Dynasty in the exhibition "Seeing the Tang Dynasty Again" held in the Liaoning Province Museum, such as "The Painting of Lady Guo's Spring Tour"(a copy of the Northern Song Dynasty, depicting the scene of the Tang Dynasty) and "The Painting of a Beautiful Woman with Hairpins". These paintings showed the high achievements of the Tang Dynasty in the art of painting, including the character modeling, color application, and picture layout. They all reflected the characteristics of Tang Feng's grace and grandeur. - ** Sculpture category **: - The Ten Thousand Buddha Hall of Zhenguo Temple in Pingyao, Shanxi Province was one of the few existing ancient buildings in Shanxi Province that still retained the Tang Dynasty style. The colored sculptures in the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall are the only colored sculptures from the Five Dynasties period that have been preserved in our country. Although it was the Five Dynasties period, because it was relatively close to the Tang Dynasty, the architectural style and colored sculpture art still retained the charm of the Tang Dynasty. For example, the architectural structure may continue the wooden construction skills of the Tang Dynasty, and the colored sculpture may retain the shadow of the Tang Dynasty style in terms of character shaping and clothing. - ** Arts and Crafts **: - Xi'an Museum recommended the Tang Dynasty gold-gilded lady hunting pattern eight-petal silver cup and other imitation cultural relics and crafts. From the original point of view, this kind of gold and silver ware reflected the superb craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty, including the gilding process and the carving of figures and hunting scenes on the ware. It reflected the social life style of the Tang Dynasty and the absorption and integration of foreign cultures. It had distinct Tang style characteristics in the shape and decoration. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
