Abstract
Guanyin Temple in Changzhi preserves over 500 valuable Ming Dynasty painted sculptures.However,due to poor preservation conditions and insufficient protection,these sculptures have suffered from varying degrees of deterioration and urgently require scientific conservation and restoration.Currently,there is little systematic research focused on the craftsmanship of small suspended sculptures.In this study,fragments detached from the sculptures were selected as samples,and techniques such as X-radiography,microscopy,mineral analysis,laser particle size testing,and X-ray diffraction were employed to investigate their craftsmanship.The results indicate that the small suspended sculptures were made of finely sifted clay reinforced with bast fibers.Fine iron wires were used to support certain parts,such as the arms and drapery.The body and head were connected by a pine-wood rod at the neck.A white lime layer was applied to the surface,onto which mineral pigments-including cinnabar,realgar,atacamite,brochantite,and azurite-were painted.Finally,the sculptures were mounted on the wall using iron nails inserted into the feet.These findings provide a scientific foundation for the conservation and restoration of the suspended sculptures at Guanyin Temple.关键词
