- Abstract
Since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the activities of appreciating and collecting ancient seals have spurred a wave of compiling collections of ancient seals in the middle and late Ming dynasties to a large extent. Seal cutting masters developed a strong interest in learning ancient seals, and proposed the idea of “esteeming the seal of Qin and Han Dynasties”. From the aesthetic perspective of ancient seals, the “three-dimensional lines” capped on the sealing mud of ancient seals were taken as the aesthetic basis from the pre-Qin to the Wei and Jin Dynasties; In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the two-dimensional “plane lines” presented on the paper were compiled into a collection of ancient seal manuscripts for appreciation; Contemporary ancient seal exhibitions or publications are displayed in an all-round way through a variety of perspectives such as three-dimensional seal buttons, seal surfaces, seal inscriptions and sealing mud. From the perspective of communication, there are some differences in the aesthetic of ancient seal between ancient and contemporary. Through sorting out aesthetic perspectives and concept evolution of ancient seal in previous dynasties, this paper discusses the aesthetic differences and relations of ancient seal in different periods.
