早期帛画及其主题

Early Silk Painting and Theme of Soul

中国古代在造纸术发明以前，丝织物除用来制作服饰外，人们还把它当作书写和绘画的材料。“帛”是先秦两汉对丝织品的泛称，实则只用蚕丝织成的细绢为书写、绘画的材质，再用笔墨书写文字，用重彩描绘人物、走兽、飞鸟、神灵形象等各种图案。这些写在丝织品上的文字和图画，被称为帛书、帛画。帛画约兴起于战国时期，

Silk painting rose in the Warring States period, and reached a peak in the Western Han Dynasty. So far, Silk painting can be divided into three categories： coffin cover silk painting, coffin wall silk painting and silk book painting. Coffin cover silk painting were mainly found in the tombs of Chu and Hart dynasties, and meant calling back the soul and guiding the soul to heaven.
