Introduction to wood carvings: In the Pingyao County Museum, there are more than 20 wood carvings of gods sitting upright, with kind faces and different expressions. They are all based on the gods of the Five Mountains and their male and female donors in Taoism. The colors and accessories of works from the Song and Yuan Dynasties still retain the style of the Song and Yuan Dynasties, making them extremely precious. The material of the statue is willow wood, which is carved using the three-dimensional technique of round carving. The works carved with this technique are vivid, expressive, delicate and lifelike. It is a realistic plastic art, and the technology is also relatively complex. It requires all aspects of the human body. The proportion and coordination of parts, the matching of facial expressions, movements, and the processing of clothing lines and lines all need to be considered comprehensively and accurately expressed during design and operation. Compared with stone sculptures and iron cast statues, wooden statues are not only different in material properties and knife skills, but also can make the shape hollow and unfolded, and the edges and corners of the face are rounder and softer.
