Hi,你好!今天我们来欣赏一件湖北荆门包山2号战国楚墓出土的彩绘漆奁。
奁是中国古代女子存放梳妆用品的盒子,流行于战国直至唐、宋年间,类似于现代的首饰盒和饰物盒。形制有方形、长方形、圆形、马蹄形、双菱形、月牙形等。
Hi! Let us appreciate a colorfully lacquered box "Lian" unearthed from the Baosha No.2 Chu Tomb of the WarringStates Period, in Jingmen, Hubei.
"Lian" is a boxsimilar to modern jewelry box or makeup boxused by ancientChinese women to store toiletries, which was popular during the Warring States Period to theTang and Song dynasties. They are generally in the shapeof square, rectangular, round, horseshoe, double diamond, crescent, etc.
这件来自2400多年前的漆奁,虽然时间、空气和水已经斑驳了它原有的色彩,但它依然色彩绚丽,生活气息扑面而来。漆奁盖顶绘有两组凤鸟纹图案;盖壁上绘制有一幅动感十足的车马人物出行图。
This lacquered box came from more than 2,300 years ago. Although air and water have corrupted its original colors, it is still colorful and living. The top of the cover is painted with two groups of phoenix patterns; while on the side of the cover there is a picture of Characters Travelling on Horses and carriages.
我们来观察漆奁盖壁上的长卷式构图。整个画面由二十六个人物、两辆骖乘、两辆骈车、九只大雁、两只狗、一只猪和五棵柳树构成。(骖乘是指三匹马拉的车,骈车是两匹马拉的车)五棵随风摇曳的柳树将画面分隔为五段,描绘了对话、迎送、出行等情节。
Now let us make a close observation of the composition of this picture. The whole picture is composed of twenty-six characters, two carriages driven by two horses, two carriages driven by three horses, nine wild geese, two dogs, a pig and five willow trees. These five willow trees divide the picture into five sections, depicting the plots such as talking, greeting, and travelling.
树枝随风四处飘动,天上大雁振翅疾飞,车马奔驰,衣袂飘飘,犬腾矢跃,极其鲜活地表达了一些特定的生活场景和视觉印象。各组彩绘交相辉映,使得整个漆奁看起来既光彩夺目又典雅庄重。
You see, the branches of the trees are swaying around in the wind, the geese are fluttering their wings in the sky, the horses and carriages are riding, the dogs and pigs are running and jumping. What a specific and vivid life scene in 2,300 years ago. Each group of paintings coordinates with each other and makes the whole box glorious and elegant.
这件漆奁盖壁上的长卷式构图,开中国后世绘画长卷式之先河,后来演变为一种古代绘画艺术的经典模式,像东晋顾恺之的《洛神赋图》、宋代王希孟的《千里江山图》、明代张择端的《清明上河图》都属这类构图模式的杰作。
The long scroll painting on this lacquered box was the first in the style of Chinese long scroll painting, and later evolved into a classic model of ancient Chinese painting art. "Luo Shen Fu Tu" by Gu Kaizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"by Wang Ximeng of the Song Dynasty, "Along the Qingming River" by Zhang Zeduan in the Ming Dynasty are all the masterpieces of this kind of scroll composition in Chinese art.
