方寸之间,浅谈汉代文字瓦当

Between Square Inches, Talking about the Han Dynasty Character Tile

瓦当早在西周时期就已经出现了,其艺术性在西汉时期达到了顶峰。相比于西周时期的瓦当,汉代瓦当之上出现云纹、四神纹、兽面纹等等反映着那个时代人们对建筑的审美情趣以及当时繁荣昌盛的社会背景,而在众多丰富装饰设计的瓦当中,文字瓦当无疑是最具特色。在继承秦代瓦当的装饰特色的基础上增加了文字效果,令这方寸之间充满了汉代的艺术审美,同时我们在研究文字瓦当中的文字时也能了解到书法在秦汉时期的发展。毫无疑问,文字瓦当向我们展示了那个书法史上承上启下、变幻莫测的书法之美。

Wadang appeared as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty,and its artistic nature reached its peak in the Western Han Dynasty.Compared with the Wadang in the Western Zhou Dynasty,the appearance of clouds,four gods,animal faces and so on reflects the aesthetic taste of the building of that era and the prosperity of the social background at that time,and among the many rich decorative design tiles,the text tile is undoubtedly the most characteristic.On the basis of inheriting the decorative features of Qin Dynasty Wadang,the text effect is added,so that this square inch is full of the artistic aesthetic of the Han Dynasty,and we can also understand the development of calligraphy in the Qin and Han period when we study the text in the text tile.There is no doubt that the text of Wadang showed us the history of calligraphy up and down,the beauty of the vagaries of calligraphy.
