Footprints and seals in traditional Chinese painting

Angular pressure seal:

A seal that usually covers the corners of a calligraphy work is called a corner seal.

Take the one in the upper right corner as the "response" and the two corners as the "betting angle". Stop the side chapter and take only one side; Corner sealing can control both sides, and it plays the role of "blocking edges and sealing corners", "supplementing emptiness" and adjusting and stabilizing the picture near the corners.

Pan Tianshou, a modern painter, said: "Like famous seals, the opening chapter and the corner seal can make the color changes on the screen echo, break the flat plate and stabilize the balance.

Name badge:

Name stamp, also called name stamp, name stamp. Most of the name cards used in calligraphy and painting are square, which are used to sign titles.

The name seal is stamped with one or a pair directly below the signature; Or the inscription uses a pair of left covers, that is, one cover is on the left side of the lower position in the middle of the inscription, and the other cover is on the lower left of the last word. You can also use two seals to press half a line at the same time, but the seal should be exposed more than half (the left side of the inscription).

Introduction:

The first chapter is a chapter printed in the upper right corner of calligraphy works, also known as "conformal chapter", which is carved out of the shape of stone. Generally, it should not be square, but translucent, rectangular, circular, semi-circular, conformal gourd-shaped, natural and shaw-shaped.

Whether to quote the first chapter of calligraphy works depends on the need. If the first paragraph is too neat, it needs to be "deformed"; The seal at the end of the paragraph is too heavy and needs to be "upgraded"; The distribution of seals on the works is monotonous and needs to be "adjusted". At this time, we should consider the first chapter.

Extended data:

Seals on paintings and calligraphy are mainly divided into three categories:

1. The seal of the author himself.

Second, the signer's seal.

Third, the seals of collectors and connoisseurs.

In these seals, they are divided into three aspects:

1. Name, font size, restaurant and hall number.

Second, the essay, Kyrgyz, aphorism seal.

Third, collect and appreciate seals. ?

Name and font seal: generally stamped under or around the author's name. Zhai Guan and Tang Hao usually affix their seals around or below the words, which are also used to say hello, and cover them in the upper right corner.

The seals of articles, auspicious words and aphorisms are generally covered in the lower left corner of calligraphy and painting as chess pieces and greetings.

Collecting and appreciating stamps are generally covered on the left and right corners of calligraphy and painting, or they do not hinder the blank space of calligraphy and painting works themselves, and can also be covered on mounting other than calligraphy and painting. The most conspicuous position of calligraphy and painting also has a cover to show authority, such as Qianlong and Jiaqing Emperor. ?

Paintings or essays are extremely rich in content and are an indispensable part of Chinese painting. The perfect combination of poetry, books and paintings is called "three musts". The ancients said that "Kung Fu is beyond poetry", which sometimes plays an important role in the taste of painting.

Good poetry is of great significance to enrich the picture, deepen the author's emotion and increase the expressive force of the picture.

The quality of poetry can be said to be the concrete embodiment of the author's cultural accomplishment and an important part of Chinese painting.
