People worship Zhong Kui to exorcise evil spirits, pray for happiness and place good wishes on him. In his works, Zhong Kui painter Lingbi skillfully used the artistic technique of borrowing material meaning or homophonic words to form auspicious words. For hundreds of years, excellent works are colorful and dazzling, which enriches the creative content of Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings, exudes a strong earthy fragrance, perceives the local customs of Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings, and agrees with the artistic aesthetic taste of folk art "earthy but not ugly" and "vulgar but not elegant". 1, homophonic bat is a necessary item in Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings. It is the eye of embellishment and the essence of Lingbi Zhongkui's paintings. It not only sets off the vividness of the picture, but also points out and implies that Zhong Kui is the theme of "Blessing God". Zhong Kui, known as the "blessed god", sent a message to exorcise evil spirits and reduce happiness. The word "bat" is homophonic with the word "happiness", so one bat (called "heavenly bat") or two bats (meaning "Zhi Zhi, Shuang Fu") are often painted around Zhong Kui, and others draw five bats (meaning "Five Blessingg") according to the needs of composition to express the theme of Zhong Kui's painting. Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings have created many homophonic paintings around the word "Fu" (bat). Picturesque Zhong Kui holds a sword and looks up at bats flying in the air, with the homonym of "holding a sword" as "only seeing good news". Zhong Kui was riding a horse, and a bat jumped on him, meaning "Blessed at once". Zhong Kui pointed to the bats flying in the clouds, holding water in his hand, and wrote "Blessing from the sky". Zhong Kui entered the wine with a knighthood, looked up at the bat and took the title of "Being knighted is a blessing" ("Being knighted" means "being promoted"). Zhong Kui held a vase, which contained flowers from four seasons, and the title was "Peace in Four Seasons". Zhong Kui is holding a pair of persimmons, which says "All the best". Zhong Kui, a boy guarding the north, wrote "A Child's Hope". Because Zhong Kui is also called "Judge" or "Judge", which comes from the homonym of "Judge" and "Hope". And so on. 2. Entrusting things with the help of natural images, or auspicious, or abusive, or sending peace. Enrich the cultural connotation of Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings and strengthen the local flavor of folk art. Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings often depict Zhong Kui holding mugwort leaves. Pu Ye is shaped like a sword, also known as "Pu Jian". Folium Artemisiae Argyi is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, which can remove filth and avoid epidemic. May of the lunar calendar is the month to ward off evil spirits. On the morning of Duanyang Festival on May 5, Ai is hung at home to ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters. On this day, the children are also wrapped in mugwort leaves, and the "five poisons" are not allowed to approach. "Qi Min Requirements" contains: "It is the sun, the dispute between Yin and Yang, and the dispersion of qi and blood". There is a folk saying, "On the Mid-Autumn Festival on May 5, the red mouth and white tongue are all gone." People painted realgar on their ears and nose, drank calamus wine, hung Zhong Kui statues, and offered incense to pray for exorcism and disease. On this day, Lingbi Zhong Kui Painting Shop became more active. According to legend, May 5th is Zhong Kui's birthday, and Zhong Kui, who made the finishing touch at noon, was the most "energetic". Therefore, the crowds who came to buy Kyrgyzstan on May 5 flooded in. It reflects the interaction between Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings and folk activities. There is also the Dragon Boat Festival painting by Zhong Kui, in which "Five Poisons" (poisonous snakes, scorpions, centipedes, toads and lizards) are stamped with swords and titled "Stop Five Poisons". Draw a spider hanging beside Zhong Kui, which means "happiness comes from the sky". Reporter: Spiders are good at weaving webs and catching poisonous mosquitoes and bees. The ancients regarded spiders as magical pearls, so they symbolized happiness, also called "happy pearls". The top of Lingbi's Zhong Kui painting must be stamped with "Lingbi County Seal", which is the unique symbol of Lingbi's Zhong Kui painting. It is not only a symbol, but also a symbol of love. In the Qing Dynasty, there was also a record in Bubian that "there was a county magistrate and a signer should be a cloud". "County seal" refers to the county seal. Because ancient county seals were all seal characters, they were called county seals. What's the point? According to the Postscript of Pan Hou and the Book of Five Prime Ministers compiled by Huang Gu in Song Dynasty, the Taoist priest borrowed the county seal to invite trouble, saying that "the county seal can attract misfortune and happiness for a hundred miles, which is feasible and ominous". Accordingly, affixing the seal of the county magistrate on Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings is also a witchcraft concept as a way of taking things, and also a way of "trusting things to express feelings". In addition, there is a historical spread: it is said that Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, believed in the spirit of exorcism and blessing when he was a child. On the eve of the Spring Festival in the first year, he asked ministers to buy a map of Zhong Kui in Lingbi to show their love, which was later regarded as a practice. Later, Judy ascended the throne in Beijing and was named Yongle, following the practice of the previous dynasty and still adopting this system. During the Chenghua period, Tang Xianzong Zhu Jianshen ascended the throne. Tang Xianzong loves painting and calligraphy, and is especially good at sculpture. He also likes to be a Zhong Kui, and he prefers the paintings of Lingbi Zhong Kui. After he ascended the throne, Zhong Kui, an imperial edict, painted a picture as a tribute. Every year, he sends hundreds of pounds of essence to Lingbi County and distributes it to the imperial court and the old ministers to ward off evil spirits and pray. For Zhang Xian Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings, each painting is stamped with the seal of Lingbi County and arranged in the shape of a "needle" as a symbol of Lingbi's tribute. Later, the painter Lingbi Zhong Kui also stamped the county magistrate seal on the commodity painting, which has been circulating for a long time and has become a stereotype. Zhong Kui paintings by Lingbi can sell tens of thousands of copies every year. It is impossible to cover the county seal in the county government, but the "county seal" of Lingbi County Town God Temple came in handy. In ancient times, the God of the City God was the magistrate of the underworld, and there was also a bronze "Lingbi County Seal", which was roughly the same as the real county seal, so this "County Seal" became used by Lingbi Zhong Kui painters. 3. Zhong Kui painted by Zhong Kui painters is often liked by people for his grotesque, humorous and humorous images, and even moved by the images of "poor scholar" and "honest official". Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings often show Zhong Kui in rags, wearing shoes and broken hats, riding a donkey, holding a broken umbrella, carrying a broken lamp and shaking a broken fan, showing Zhong Kui's integrity, honesty and integrity, which is in sharp contrast with the greedy ghosts, money-collecting ghosts and vampires seen by the world. Through the picture, the viewer can learn the law and become a precept, and persuade the world with morality. Lingbi Zhong Kui painted the traditional "four broken pictures". Zhong Kui was in rags, wearing worn boots, holding a broken umbrella and carrying a broken lamp. On the night of heavy snow and cold rain, despite the biting wind, Zhong Kui is still patrolling in a competitive way, catching evil spirits everywhere. The painter also tied it with a "doggerel" cloud: "clothes can be sewn, boots can be worn, umbrellas can be supported, and lights can be turned on." Do not laugh at me. Honest literati are too shabby. Please look at that. The greedy ghost saw me sneaking around. After all, he is a true hero of good and evil. "People respect kindness and honesty, and hate greed and rich and heartless evil deeds. Seeing the "four broken pictures", my heart is very comfortable and my soul is comforted. Cao Zhi once said, "Keep one precept and get a picture. "The same is true of Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings. 4. Soul Stone Zhong Kui's paintings have a long history and rich cultural accumulation. It is permeated with China ancient myths and legends, folk stories and ancient history books, and its cultural connotation is more profound. The traditional theme of Lingbi painting in Zhong Kui's "Zhong Kui God Beast Umbrella Eight Jin Ping" is more vividly reflected. Zhong Kui beast, treasure umbrella and eight gold flat screen are unique in form and content. This painting takes the form of "four screens" or "eight screens", showing eight different shapes of Zhong Kui riding on eight different beasts, and eight different attendants holding eight different treasure umbrellas, hence the name. These eight kinds of beasts are all from ancient documents and books, such as Biography of Xuanyuan, Classic of Mountains and Seas, Fuxizhi, Biography of Ghosts, etc. They have their own origins, which fully embodies the mutual integration and intercommunication between Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings and ancient cultural classics, and constitutes the profound national culture of the Chinese nation. For example, one of Zhong Kui's mounts is "Bai Ze", and the beast of Bai Ze originally wrote in "The Chronicles of Xuanyuan": "The emperor made a hunting tour, crossed the sea to the east, climbed Mount Huan, and Yu Haibin got the beast of Bai Ze, so he could speak because he asked the ghosts and gods in the world. "According to Yan Xia's Biography of beheading Ghosts, Yan Jun made mounts for Bai Ze and Zhong Kui, saying that" Bai Ze "was originally changed by Aibo, but was demoted to Yinshan because it harmed Wu Zixu. For hundreds of years, he felt sorry for himself and was quite willing to turn over a new leaf. He specially gave it to Zhong Kui to help him kill ghosts, so as to atone. The second mount is arrogance. According to the "Nerve" cloud: "There are beasts such as sheep in the northeast famine, which are loyal and straightforward, but they can't touch people directly when they fight, so they are called arrogant beasts." The third is "cunning". "Western Medicine" contains: "As cunning as a horse, with a white tail and black horns, Tiger Claw has tiger teeth, eats tigers and leopards, and can resist soldiers." The fourth part is called Yu Guangzhong, see Fu Ruizhi in Song Dynasty. Zhiyun: "The horn travels 8,000 miles a day, and it speaks the language of four foreigners, which is far away from home. Guy Bai Ze and so on ". Other mounts include,, Linlin and Cheng. They are all based on the animals in China's ancient mythology, such as loyalty, courage, knowing ghosts, commanding soldiers, obeying the law, doing good deeds, and symbolizing good luck. It can be seen that Zhong Kui's paintings have profound cultural connotations within the scale, and "Jinping Eight Screens" is the epitome of national culture. This form of Zhong Kui's painting has never been seen by any painter in history, nor has it appeared in any place. It is the most unique masterpiece of Zhong Kui's paintings. It has rich culture, unique style, wonderful ideas, unique technology, unique and unique. Zhong Kui culture is an important part of China culture, which embodies the latent psychology handed down from generation to generation since ancient times. It has gone through the narcissistic stage of witchcraft, and totem worship and prayer behavior originated from our ancestors' imagination of supernatural power. Lingbi Zhong Kui painting is the carrier of China ancient national culture, which has been excavated deeply and raised high. Originated in Xuanyuan, it began in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, with Chu style and Tang rhyme, with rich meanings. Lingbi Zhong Kui painted folk paintings, palace paintings and literati paintings in one furnace; It combines religious history, folklore, philosophy, art and literature, and has dual values of spiritual culture and aesthetic function. In today's aesthetic taste, it is a China art form that complements literati painting, so it has high historical value, humanistic value, aesthetic value and academic value, and is a unique and mysterious element in the global multicultural system. She will always live in the hearts of China people and shine in the World Art Grand View Garden!
