唐代敦煌艺术品中之青色考辨

Textual Research on Green Color in Art Works in Dunhuang in Tang

在中国古代的"五色体系"(青、赤、黄、白、黑)中,"青"作为"东方木"之色,代表了一种蓬勃向上富有生命力的颜色;而在中国古代的青绿山水画中,"青"作为"点睛"之色,也发挥着统领画面色彩的重要作用。历来对青色的研究多关注其象征文化的内容,本文则试图回到青色的物质基础,选取最具色彩感的唐代敦煌艺术为例,探讨其中的青色调的物质构成、颜料制取以及来源等问题。

In the 'Five-Color System'(green,red,yellow,white,black)in ancient China, 'green',as the color of 'wood in the east',represents a color with vigor and life;in the green landscape paintings in ancient China, 'green' as the color of a punchline played an important role of leading color of the whole painting.In the past,research on the green color stressed on the content of its symbolic culture,but this paper tries to return back to the material basis of it,chooses art in Dunhuang in Tang which is with the best color feeling as an example,and discusses questions such as the green color's material composition,making and origination.
