Features: The discovery and understanding of ancient seals and sealing clay were both late and superficial. It was not until over a hundred years ago that they fully entered the artistic vision of modern and contemporary seal carvers. Before that, their aesthetic value in seal carving art was largely overlooked. This book is part of the "Series on Analyzing Classic Seal Carving Techniques Throughout History." From the perspective of contemporary seal carving art, it examines the aesthetic value of ancient seals and sealing clay, analyzes representative works through the lens of seal carving creation, and interprets their expressive techniques and cutting methods. It is believed that this book will serve as a practical and useful reference for readers studying seal carving.
