Abstract

The pattern of “Three Companions of Winter” is a unique presence among traditional Chinese patterns. Mainly themed by combinations of pine trees, bamboo and plum, it is in the category of plant pattern. However, the term “three companions of winter” was bred by the thought of ancient Chinese literati, so it has been endowed with more profound cultural connotation. As a symbol of the Chinese literati characters, it is a pattern showing the personality qualities, and also has auspicious meaning in folk culture. This paper analyses the origin, development, artistic connotation, expression form and modern design application of “three companions of winter” and explores the social spiritual connotation of it, so as to reveal the contemporary aesthetic value of traditional plant patterns and enrich the cultural connotation of textile art design.
