Abstract

The bronze ornamentation in the Shang Dynasty were mainly of imaginary animal pattern, changed into realistic animal pattern in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and simplified into geometric pattern until the middle and late Western Zhou Dynasty, which proved that the bronze ornamentation in the Western Zhou Dynasty has undergone fundamental changes. The reason of such changes lied in the change of social system by the rulers of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and thus resulted in the change of Zhou people’s cognitive and aesthetic concepts. At present, there is no in-depth research on the relationship between bronze ornamentation and cultural evolution in the academic circle, and the exploration on the reasons for the development and evolution of bronze ornamentation is relative less. Therefore, this paper analyzes on the impact of the ritual of the Western Zhou Dynasty on the bronze ornamentation from the research of bronze ornamentation.
