historical origin
According to textual research, the Han Baiyu figurines unearthed from Liu Sheng Tomb in Mancheng are carved from Quyang Huangshan Han Baiyu, which is the oldest Quyang stone carving ever found. The dog pagoda of Taibei Village, King Quyang, is said to have been built by Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, for a volunteer dog. The dog pagoda is 13 stories, about 50 meters high. It is made of white jade and bricks in Huangshan. The relief frescoes carved on the stone walls of the first to fourth floors in the tower are well-designed, well-laid out and highly artistic, representing the artistic level of Quyang stone carving artists at that time. Quyang "Dog Pagoda" is one of the earliest monumental large-scale stone carving buildings in China. It is also a building with high achievement of stone carving art in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Quyang stone carvings developed rapidly with unprecedented scale and grandeur. During this period, Quyang stone carvings artists'footprints spread all over the country.

In Tang Dynasty, politics, economy and culture flourished unprecedentedly. Quyang stone carving entered a period of rapid development. Quyang became the sculpture center of northern China.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, in the construction of Royal palaces, mausoleums and gardens, Quyang stone carvers gave full play to their exquisite carving skills, almost reaching the peak. The inscription of "Quyang Master" on two revetment stones on the North Bank of Suzhou Street in the Summer Palace has become a precious historical material for Quyang Master to participate in the construction of Beijing Garden.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the sculpture factories and workshops stopped production and shut down, artists changed their professions, or made a living in other places. The sculpture industry was in a depressing or even stagnant state.
After the founding of New China, Quyang sculpture embarked on the road of revival. In October 1952, more than a dozen sculptors from Quyang were selected and transferred to Beijing. After more than a year's training, they were responsible for the main sculpture task of Monument relief. After the completion of the monument, the Beijing Municipal Government, following the instructions of Premier Zhou, established the Beijing Architectural Art Sculpture Factory with Quyang sculptors who participated in the construction of the monument as the backbone force, which provided a broader space for Quyang sculptors.

Inheritance value
The cultural connotation of Quyang stone carving is profound. It embodies the sculpture soul of an ancient and simple peasant craftsman who used agriculture as the main means of subsistence in the Taihang Mountains. In this Baishi-rich mountain depression, dozens of generations drew nutrients from the northern nationalities and Buddhist cultures through continuous sculpture, integrated them with strong national cultural spirit, and depicted national dignity and religious piety in a silent image with traditional techniques, so as to carve excellent cultural treasures belonging to the world-class.
