安阳时期的青铜器风格(公元前1300—前1028年)

The Bronze Styles of the Anyang Period(1300-1028 B.C.)

该文旨在展示安阳时期(公元前1300—前1028年)的铜器装饰风格,并明确它们的相对位置。作者从青铜器型、装饰母题、铸造工艺及整体效果等方面将安阳殷墟出土的青铜器划分为五个连续发展的风格序列,每个风格以四件铜器为代表,清晰演示了安阳时期铜器装饰的发展变化。五个风格被描述为连续的发明序列,而不是一种断代的法则,这个发展序列表现为铜器装饰面积的逐步扩大,器物装饰由线性发展至塑造性以及饕餮纹逐步形成的过程。

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the bronze decorative styles of the Anyang period(1300-1028 B.C.)and to clarify their relative positions.The author divides the bronzes excavated from Anyang,Yinxu into five sequences of continuously developing styles in terms of bronze type,decorative motifs,casting techniques and overall efects,and each style is exemplified by four bronze vessels,clearly demonstrating the developmental changes in bronze decoration during the Anyang period.The five styles are described as a continuous sequence of invention rather than a law of discontinuity,and this developmental sequence reflects the gradual expansion of the area of bronze decoration,the development of the decoration from linear to plastic motifs,and the gradual formation of taotie orna mentations.
