Features: This dictionary is based on the "Modern Seal Carving Dictionary" published in Tokyo, Japan, in 1983 by Mr. Zhong Xi Geng Nan. The dictionary collects seal impressions of major seal carvers since the Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as those from the "Xue Shan Tang Yin Pu," "Lai Gu Tang Yin Pu," and "Fei Hong Tang Yin Pu," collectively known as the "Three Masters Seal Anthologies." The dictionary covers over 340 seal carvers, includes more than 3,300 characters, and contains approximately 45,500 seal impressions, with each listed by the artist's name. The order of the seal inscriptions is generally arranged according to the chronological order of the seal carvers. The index and glossary follow the standards of the "Modern Chinese Dictionary."
