Historical origin
Dragon stalls are developed from "bench dragons". They are made of wood into bench-shaped dragon bodies, which are joined into a wooden plank dragon body. They are one of the traditional arts and crafts with local characteristics in Yueqing area, southern Zhejiang Province, and also a form of folk cultural activities for the people of Jiangnan Province to enjoy themselves for a long time.
Yueqing Dragon File has a long history. Yueqing County Chronicle compiled in the year of Yueqing Dade once vividly described Yueqing's Lantern Festival activities in urban and rural areas: "Lishe Sheng Dadan, Tongqu cut ribbon, share appreciation with the public, and enjoy with the people." "Fire tree light Tengcheng night, silver fireworks sparkling Changchun." Legend has it that Yueqing Dragon File began in the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 500 years.
The Ming Dynasty Jiang Huai's "Qihai Trivial Talk" records that at that time Yueqing was well known as "village muddy, like dragon head and tail, tailored version as the body, turning wheels, camplight on top, from the golden drum, along the door reward, known as dragon boat lantern." Jewelry dragon production technology is a unique folk craft in Yueqing, Wenzhou, southern Zhejiang Province. At present, it mainly concentrates in Beibeixiang Town, Liushi Town and other Western towns of Yueqing City. The ancient folk relics of Wuyue in Yueqing, rich marine culture and commercial culture, unique geographical location and cultural background are the basis of the birth of jewelry dragon making skills. Yueqing jewelry dragon has been loved by the local people because of its unique folk cultural value and strong ornamental. Every year around the Lantern Festival, Yueqing will hold a grand jewelry dragon parade, people expect jewelry dragon can bring good weather, fruitful grain.
"Fire tree light Tengcheng night, silver fireworks sparkling Changchun." There is a traditional custom of dragon boating in Xixiang of Yueqing. Generally, the lights are on the eighth day of the first lunar month and on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, while the assembly of dragon gear begins on the first day of the first lunar month. Dragon stalls travel with dragon boats, gongs and drums open the road, blowing and beating, very lively. The woodcarving dragon file of Xuewan Village in Wengyuan Town was first made in Guangxu four years (1878). It has a history of 131 years. Because of its long history, its earliest sculptor has no way to verify. After several repairs.
Since 1952, campaigns have been carried out to break down superstitions and the four old ones. The dragon boat is no longer rowed in the village. The dragon gear is also put up in the loft of two large families in the village. It is for this reason that during the Cultural Revolution, when the Red Guards copied from house to house, the Dragon file was saved. According to villagers Li Xiqin, in the late 1970s, when Yueqing dragon sculptor Zheng Xiangkui and Zheng Shengcun were invited to repair the Dragon file, they re-sculpted and disposed of all the carvings and some other parts and related accessories. When CCTV came to Yueqing to shoot "Millennium Ancient County", this ancient dragon stall attracted their attention and was moved onto the CCTV screen.
In 2007, the jewelry dragon craftsmanship successfully declared the second batch of intangible cultural heritage projects in Zhejiang Province. In September 2007, Yueqing jewelry dragon was exhibited in the "China intangible cultural heritage protection achievements exhibition"; in December 2007, it was collected by the Chinese Academy of Art. At present, Yueqing has two professional jewelry dragon production bases. The project is of great value and difficult to learn. As artists grow older, protection is imminent.
