Abstract:Garden wood carvings can increase the aesthetic feeling of buildings through modeling, lines, and patterns. The allegorical wood carving patterns were common in the Yuan and Ming dynasties and became more popular in the Qing Dynasty. One type of pattern is to utilize the auspicious meaning of things themselves, the other is to use the homophony of things. The development of wood carving theme from realism to freehand brushwork is a concrete manifestation of the gradual improvement of the working people's image-thinking ability and generalization ability.
