Two Crows, Tables of Unspoken Dreams

“Tables of Unspoken Dreams”

seals, Yin zhang, 印章.

Stamp seals usualy used with a vermillion seal paste are an integral part of ink painting and calligraphy traditions, there are not only seals used for signatures but also leisure seals expressing mood, alias seals, studio seals, seals that function like an ex libris, and picture seals. Many Chinese painter were and are also seal carvers, at least concerning the softer stones such as Shoushan or Changhua (often wrongly reffered to as soapstones, they are not) it is a field more open to the lightly equipped amateur than inkstone making or jade carving.
