Sister in law introduced:
1, Sister-in-law is one of the nine sons born in ancient myths and legends of China. It is said to be the fifth son and the eighth son. It is shaped like a lion and likes smoking and sitting, so its image usually appears on the incense burner and then smokes. Sister-in-law was often used as a stone statue in front of Dojo, Buddhist temple or official yamen in ancient times, but it was not suitable for being placed in front of home.
The ancient book says that sister-in-law is a beast that can eat tigers and leopards like lions, and it also means that all animals are mighty and obedient. It often appears in palace buildings, Buddhist statues and porcelain incense burners in China.
Sister-in-law is one of the nine sons born in China mythology. She looks like a lion, ranking fifth. She likes quiet, sitting well and fireworks all her life. Seeing his patience, the Buddha took him as a mount, so the foot ornaments on the Buddha's seat and incense burner were his portraits.
Sister-in-law's later influence:
1. It is used to decorate the Buddha. The decorative sisters-in-law on the Buddha's seat were introduced to China by Indians in the Han Dynasty. In the Southern and Northern Dynasties, this style was created by China folk artists, which made it have the traditional style of China.
Later, he became the fifth son of the dragon. Most of the places he arranged were in front of Manjusri Bodhisattva, who sat cross-legged or cross-legged. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the dragon-shaped decoration in the middle of the collar of the stone lion or bronze lion is also an image of the lion entering the tiger's mouth, which makes the traditional China gate lion more powerful.
In modern times, because of the deification of lion fans, lions are regarded as sisters-in-law. In fact, the two have nothing to do. The decoration of ancient buildings, on the fork ridge of ancient buildings in China, is decorated with some small animals.
4. The arrangement of these small animals is strictly regulated, and the number of auspicious animals varies according to the level of the building, most of which are decorations on the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City, which is unique in the architectural history of China Palace and shows its supreme importance.
