What are the painting carriers of Chinese painting?

In addition to Xuan paper and walls, Chinese paintings also have other carriers, such as silk yarn, folding fans and ceramics.

In ancient times, Chinese paintings painted on silk gauze were called silk books. Although there are many silk replicas, they are easily eaten by insects, damaged and difficult to preserve. Silk looks more expensive, but the background color is not as white as paper, so silk Chinese painting is not as common as rice paper Chinese painting.

Folding fan is also one of the important carriers of Chinese painting. Ancient fan paintings are generally small and easy to carry, and many people in ancient times used giant fan paintings as indoor decorations, so folding fan paintings are very practical.

The round fans are mostly round or oval, and the area is not large, but they are also divided into silk and paper. The big fan or palm fan used in the ancient court can be as high as one person, which shows that round fan Chinese painting is also very common.

In addition, ceramic vases, cups, plates, mirrors and other utensils can also be used as carriers of Chinese painting. The pigments and production methods used are different from those of paper and silk, but there is no difference in the principle and appreciation value of Chinese painting.

In addition to porcelain, there are calendars, lampshades, snuff bottles and even ancient costumes, and some of them are decorated with Chinese paintings, which are very popular and distinctive.
