Features: The world-renowned Xiling Seal Society, bathed in its unique lakeside and mountain scenery, has accumulated a splendid cultural landscape. Its establishment and development have always been a dazzling highlight in the history of Hangzhou culture and a magnificent painting in the history of seal culture worth being celebrated with ink. The concept of the "Xiling Taste Series" is based on this idea. By organizing and editing a series of works, it gradually unfolds the multi-faceted journey of the Xiling Seal Society over its century-long history, allowing readers to appreciate its vicissitudes from different perspectives and its glorious achievements today. The series aims to be accessible and enjoyable for both scholars and general readers, differing from in-depth academic monographs as well as simple picture books. The intention is to hope that researchers can discover something here and that a broad audience can find interest. If these original goals are achieved, we will be deeply gratified. We believe that through everyone's unremitting efforts and hard work, the Xiling Seal Society, this international "golden name card" with Hangzhou and even Zhejiang's regional characteristics, will become brighter, more renowned, and more captivating. Under the correct leadership of the Hangzhou Municipal Committee and the Municipal Government, we should fully leverage the unique role of the Xiling Seal Society to contribute to the creation of a cultural city, the development of a cultural province, and the advancement of the three civilizations.
