On a misty morning, a graceful woman on the bank of the river, with long hair and shawls, beautiful eyes, came to the money. This picture of the illusion in the dream may be the image of the fairy companion in the hearts of many young men at present. If, 67-year-old Wu Zetian travels through a thousand years of time, long hair shawl, a white coat, a model, such a magical picture will produce what kind of effect? Netizens said, stop, stop!
Some netizens immediately stood up to correct, cloud wants clothes, flowers want to look, different historical periods have their own aesthetic concepts. Young women to long hair shawl for beauty, this is just the current, the current aesthetics, throughout Chinese history, at least before the Qing Dynasty, China's ancients, male and female, hair must be combed, can not be draped and hung. In ancient China, there may only be two situations in which the shawl is distributed, one is that the ancients are serving during the mourning period, and the second situation is that they become criminals waiting for the autumn to be beheaded.
Netizens said that the image of Wu Zetian's cape was really present in the TV series. A few days ago, Wu Zetian, a generation of empresses in the TV series "Wind Rises in Luoyang", has been wearing long hair since her appearance, and the image of her hair in the previous film and television dramas with high buns and gorgeous clothes is completely different. Adapted from Ma Boyong's novel Luoyang, "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" tells the story of what happened during the Wuzhou Period, and in the second episode of the play, Wu Zetian makes her first appearance, only to see her sitting on a futon with her back to the courtiers, dressed in plain clothes, and her long hair is scattered and there is no headdress.
Some netizens feel inappropriate, they think that filming Tang Dynasty historical dramas should basically conform to the costumes and hairstyles of the Tang Dynasty. Empress Wu Zetian of a generation should be like all other Tang Dynasty noblewomen, who will comb a high bun when they become adults, and wear various gold and jade jewelry hairpins on their buns, including step shakes, rather than the long-haired shawls in film and television dramas.
In the first year of the Tang Dynasty (690 AD), the 67-year-old Wu Zetian, with the support of the people and officials, ascended to the Luoyang Zetianmen Gate to hold an enthronement ceremony, ascended the throne, changed the tang dynasty state name to Zhou, and set the capital luoyang, becoming the only female emperor in Chinese history. Wu Zetian, who ascended the throne at the age of 67, not only did not wear a shawl, but also was good at makeup and grooming his face. According to the Zizhi Tongjian, New Book of Tang, And Empress Dowager Ze tianwu, it is recorded that "although the empress dowager was high in the spring and autumn, she was good at tu ze, although she did not understand her decline left and right." This means that although she is older, (Wu Zetian) is still good at making up and grooming herself, even those who serve her will not feel that she is old and fading.
What is certain is that the wu zetian in history will not be the image of the cape in "The Wind Rises in Luoyang". So, what exactly was the hairstyle of a noble woman in the Tang Dynasty? Some scholars have long studied the image of female providers in Dunhuang murals in the Tang Dynasty and found historical details such as hairstyles, clothing, and makeup of noble women in the Tang Dynasty. The Dunhuang murals in Gansu are a treasure trove for studying the art of painting in the Tang Dynasty, and a large number of painting art works have been preserved. Dunhuang murals are an important part of Dunhuang art, rich in content, grand scale, exquisite skills, especially the portraits of the donors, but also have a unique artistic aesthetic value and historical research value.
The portrait of the provider is a portrait of the Buddha painted in the cave by the meritorious lord and his dependents who funded the statue of the cave to pray for blessings and wishes. There are a large number of pictures reflecting the production and life of ancient people in the murals of Dunhuang, Gansu. Among them, the inscription of the provider, as well as clothing, makeup and other contents, provide posterity with a large amount of information on the social life of the time. There are more than 8,000 portraits of donors in the Dunhuang murals in Gansu, as early as the Wei and Jin Dynasties, as late as the Qing Dynasty; as large as Zhangyu and as small as a few inches; men, women, old and young, all kinds, constituting a systematic and vivid history of social evolution. These rich and vivid murals show us the social life of people's living customs, social customs, customs and customs in the Middle Ages, and are precious materials for us to understand the lives of ancient people.
The types of Tang Dynasty women's makeup in the Dunhuang murals in Gansu Province are roughly hairpins, plutonium, steps, shakes, combs, tungsten, and sheng. The Ninth Cave of Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes in Gansu (766-835 AD) is a cave of merit built by Zhang Chengfeng, the emissary of the Dunhuang Rebel Army in the late Tang Dynasty, and the picture shows three female devotees on the felt carpet as the female dependents of the festival, three noblewomen with high black hair, wearing a flower crown, a haircut and hairpin, a string of jewelry necklaces tied around the neck, painted with willow eyebrows, plastered on the forehead, and red rouge stained red cheeks. The three noble ladies are full of flowers and flowers, which are gorgeous and illuminating, showing the fashion of the aristocratic women of the late Tang Dynasty.
What is the image of Wu Zetian in history? Perhaps, netizens already have the answer in their hearts. Empress Wu Zetian of a generation estimated that like other noble women in the Tang Dynasty, she was extremely particular about hairstyle, clothing, makeup, etc., and it was impossible to face the masses with long hair and shawls. History and culture, more need rigorous archaeology professionals and historians through the study of cultural relics and other historical information to restore, if you are in the film and television works to see the history, huh! It may delay your business! (Wang Jian'an Photography)
