How to frame a Chinese painting Fix the back plate, how to frame a Chinese painting

My simplest method, materials: two large wool brushes (depending on the size of the frame), one hard brush (if not, you can use a wool brush), a bottle of ordinary paste, a **, several newspapers, a table with a smooth countertop, a bucket, water, rice paper or a clip of Xuan, pencil paper, a utility knife, a smooth wall or an upright board.

Steps: 1. Spread the back of the artwork upwards on the table.

2. Brush the back of the work with a brush soaked in water, pay attention not to use too much force, don't dry too much, and brush the work flat.

3. Spread the newspaper on the work and absorb the water.

4. Dilute the paste with water, not too thick and not too thin. It is similar to porridge and can flow.

5. Use another wool brush to evenly coat the diluted paste on the back of the work, don't paint too much, be sure to apply evenly. Then clean the extra paste on the table around the work.

6. Take a piece of rice paper that is about 2 cm wider than the work, put the rice paper from one side with the left hand, and brush back and forth with the brush (the brush to be dry) with the right hand and slowly put the rice paper to continue to brush until the rice paper is completely attached to the work. After brushing, you can cover with a layer of newspaper and continue to brush until there are no air bubbles.

7. At this time, brush the extra 2 cm with paste, and then prepare two pieces of rice paper about 5 cm wide and 10 cm long, and cover them in 1 3 places on one side of the work, which is called "chimney" to keep the back of the work breathable. Finally, use a knife or something like to pick up the corner of the rice paper and slowly lift it up. Pay attention to the work to be pasted on rice paper.

It is possible that the work will still be attached to the table, which requires us to carefully lift the corner of the rice paper to see if the work has followed, if not, with a knife lightly. ）

8. Finally, pick up the framed work, the front of the work is facing yourself, walk to a smooth wall (board), the closer the better, blow the breath, and paste it on the wall, use a dry brush to brush vertically on the work, brush horizontally, draw a rice font, and finally brush the 2 cm around the work to the outside. In this way, a painting is basically flat.

9. After a few days, when the painting is dry, use a knife to cut off the painting on the wall, and the cutting is completed, and the mounting is finished. If you want to look good, it's easy to stick it yourself.

It is recommended to practice a few more times, don't look at what I wrote so much, I really got started quickly, I read the teacher frame it when I was in college, and I wrote it all down.

It's simple, but it's very practical, such as participating in small-scale exhibitions.

In fact, strictly speaking, it can only be regarded as "extension", but it is enough for us "how to simply frame calligraphy and painting at home by a layman". The framing shop costs about 40 yuan at a time. Hope to the questioner.

You are asking how to do framed Chinese paintings technically, right? I'll write about it roughly.

The traditional way of framing Chinese paintings is roughly divided into three steps: supporting the painting, rimming, covering the back, and attaching the rod.

1. Supporting painting: Supporting painting is to hold a piece of rice paper on the back of the original work (called "painting heart" in the jargon). Before painting, you should use saliva to try the ink on the unimportant part of the painting, to see if it is a new ink painting or a dead ink.

If it is new ink, it will be supported according to the normal method, and if it is Su ink, it will be used in the way of "flying support".

The normal method is to place the center of the painting on the table with the back side up, spray it with water first, let the paper "stretch your waist", and then brush it with a thin paste ......and glue a blank piece of rice paper to it. The specifics can't be written in too much detail, otherwise a book will have to be written. Huh

After the painting is finished, it should be "put on the wall" to calm it. Remove after drying, and then "cut".

2. Edging: After cutting, the heart of the painting should be "raised", and then edging, and the silk (some people used to use imitation silk paper) will be inlaid around the painting, first inlaid on both sides, and then inlaid with heaven and earth. I won't say much about "Kai Aya" and "Toya".

3. Backing: On the back of the inlaid painting, another layer of backpaper should be supported, and the backpaper should also be supported first, or it can be directly replaced by a clip. The method is the same as that of the painting.

Fourth, install the heaven and earth pole: the sky pole is square, the ground pole is round, after installation, in the place where the two ends of the sky pole are slightly to the center, symmetrically install the "hole" and wear the "swallow belt". The length of the shaft head should be set aside at both ends of the ground pole, slightly thinned, and then the exposed ends should be coated with white latex to install the shaft head.

A painting is framed.

Mounting can be divided into original mounting and remounting, original mounting is to frame the newly drawn painting according to the framing procedure. Re-mounting is to frame those hand-me-down paintings and calligraphy that have fallen off their empty shells, become damp and moldy, rotten and broken, and bitten by insects and rats due to poor original mounting or due to poor management and collection preservation. The framed calligraphy and painting are firm and beautiful, and are easy to collect and arrange.

And the re-framed ancient painting will also prolong its vitality. The ancients said: "Historic sites are remounted, such as illness and medical ......."If you are good at medicine, you will be killed.

So what is the procedure for framing Chinese paintings? Generally, it is framed on the back of the painting with paper, and then edged with twisted, silk, paper, etc., and then the shaft rod is installed into a layout. Traditional mounting is varied, but the finished product can be divided into three categories: hanging scrolls, hand scrolls, and albums.

Regardless of the size, shape, and purpose of the original framed painting, there are only three steps: supporting the center, inlaying, and calendering. It's just that the mounting of the painting heart is an important process in the whole decoration process. The reframing of old paintings and calligraphy is quite difficult.

First of all, the old painting heart should be removed, the dirt and mold should be cleaned, the holes should be repaired, etc., and then the new painting should be re-framed according to the framing process.

China's mounting process is accompanied by the history of Chinese painting and produced, from the historical data preserved today, as early as 1500 years ago the mounting technology has appeared, and for the production of paste, anti-corrosion, the choice of mounting paper, as well as the decontamination, repair, dyeing and so on of ancient paintings have written records. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Jiaxuan wrote "Decoration Chronicles", and the Qing Dynasty learned to write "A Corner of the Chapter", both of which are specialized works on China's systematic discussion of mounting.

First, it is pasted on rice paper, then wrapped in silk and silk, and then made into a frame or shaft.

Chinese paintings are framed in traditional and wooden frames, and now there is also a kind of cardboard mounting, which is best found in a professional framing shop.

This question makes you ask what kind of table you want to be I can put on the table with an electric iron to see what quality you want.

15 yuan to find a framing shop to frame.

The more the Chinese painting is framed, the better the artistic conception of the Chinese painting.

It can be mounted and easy to store. It is possible to mount a frame, but it is not convenient to transport.

This is not necessary, you can use MDF, after all, it is invisible, and it is light. The important thing is that the frame is good, the material and the workmanship are good. It is recommended to use a solid wood mortise and tenon frame. Generally, inferior picture frames are directly glued and have no mortise and tenon joints.

Pay attention to the corners of this frame, this is an important point of this frame***:

1. Mortise and tenon. 2. There is also an L-shaped piece of wood on the surface, which makes the frame more stable and not easy to remove the tenon 3.

Generally, the works of large-scale competition exhibitions need to be framed, and the organizer generally requires the original manuscript to be sent.

The mounting of Chinese painting is generally divided into several large procedures, such as supporting the heart, supporting the silk, blanking, inlaying, covering the back, and putting on the rod, and the materials and tools required and the process flow are very complex, and it is not one or two paragraphs of text that can be said. It is recommended that you buy a book, such as Mr. Feng Zengmu's "Chinese Painting and Calligraphy Mounting", which is an excellent textbook. Or you just want to know, then you can search for it, it's not hard to find.

2. Blanking. Cut the supported heart neatly, design the size of the whole frame and the specific size of each branch, and cut the supported silk into strips of different sizes (at least four pieces: heaven, earth and the sides on both sides).

3. Inlay. It is to paste the cut ayako and the heart together, and the prototype of the mounting piece comes out. 4. Back.

Paste another layer of rice paper on the back of the flattened mounting. 5. Put on the rod. On both ends of the mounting, the sky rod and the earth axis, the sky rod should also be tied, and the shaft head is added at both ends of the earth axis.

The mounting is complete. It takes at least ten days for a single piece to be framed, as it is dried several times in between.
