New Year's Greeting is a traditional culture, the Lunar New Year everyone is happy, and New Year's Greeting is also an important embodiment of Chinese culture. But in today's Lunar New Year, young people pay less and less attention to the fact that they are taking relatives.
In particular, many elders intend to take young people to visit relatives, but young people are reluctant and even maintain a resistance to this traditional folk culture.
How did the ancients worship the New Year in the Lunar New Year, and how did they do this thing so perfectly?
Ancient "Bye Nian Map": Adults drink tea and children set off cannons, unlike today's mobile phones!
More than 600 years ago, an annual greeting map, adults chat and drink tea in the painting, go to relatives to enjoy this kind of Lunar New Year holiday atmosphere, look at these scenes in the paintings of the ancients, this ordinary and simple life is fascinating.
This work is a Ming Dynasty Yuan Shangtong's New Year's chart, which has now been treasured in the Palace Museum in Beijing, and depicts the scene of the new year's new year, adults and children celebrating the Spring Festival together, relatives gathering together to drink tea and chat, harmonious and lively.
The brushwork in the painting is still the minimalist style of the Ming Dynasty, and the thick lines are full of brushwork, but relaxing the angle of appreciation, the painting style embodied in the whole work is very delicate, especially the scene of the mountain village walking relatives depicted in the picture is very realistic.
The first thing you noticed was that in the courtyard, there were a lot of children doing a series of things in the courtyard. They don't just look at their phones like people walking around with their relatives now. These children have no chance to play with tablets and mobile phones, so what do they do when they go to relatives?
Looking closely at the paintings, there are a few children who are beating gongs and drums, and a few who are setting off firecrackers. Each child's expression and movement in the painting are different, and it is obvious that they enjoy this kind of gathering together to play and have fun.
In the room in the painting, there are actually three elders drinking at the same table, and it is unknown whether it is drinking tea or drinking wine. They are also enjoying tea while watching children playing, very happy life scenes.
The brushwork of the whole work is stable and old, the painting style is simple and ancient, and this picture of the ancient people's New Year's greeting reflects how ordinary people spent the Spring Festival at that time. The fact that we were relatives was actually quite fond of when we were young, but how did this thing change its flavor now? It is worth everyone's deep thinking and discussion together.
