Features of the leisure chapter: due to the limitation of square inch, it is impossible to describe it in detail, and it cannot be as long and lyrical as prose. Spare chapters can only rely on the talents of seal engravers, and their language is novel, concise and elegant. They can express their thoughts directly, reflect hidden words, quote or create poems, cautionary words and anecdotes to entertain themselves. Its elegance and vulgarity can be revealed in words.
Leisure stamps evolved from seals engraved with auspicious characters in Qin and Han Dynasties, and became popular after Song and Yuan Dynasties. It is called "leisure chapter", but it is not "leisure". In modern times, leisure chapter has developed into an indispensable part of China's painting and calligraphy art, and its content is very extensive and interesting. Painters either make up their own words or extract aphorisms from idle chapters to show their understanding of life and art.
