The meaning of the middle temple

Nave, named after hanging on the central wall of the hall, is an upright posture in the mounting of traditional Chinese painting. The old house in China has a high floor, and people often hang a huge calligraphy and painting on the middle wall of the living room (hall), which is called nave painting. It is a rectangular work written vertically. Most of the contents are four-foot long Chinese characters with auspicious meanings such as blessing, longevity, dragon and tiger, and then "couplets" are affixed on the left and right. There are also calligraphy inscriptions hanging ancestral teachings, aphorisms and famous sentences or portraits of ancestors, landscapes, tigers and so on. The size is generally a whole piece of rice paper (divided into four feet, five feet, six feet, eight feet and so on. ).
