100 examples of the most beautiful flower arrangement art

The art of Chinese flower arrangement has a long history. Buddhism was introduced during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties (420-589 AD), which set off a craze for flower arrangement in temples. During the Five Dynasties (907-960 AD), Emperor Li Houzhu held a flower exhibition in the palace every spring and wrote "Jin Dong Tian", which made flower arrangement a grand event in the palace and thus led to the rise of palace flower arrangement.

During the heyday of literati painting (960-1279), the trend of literati flower arrangement emerged. By the Ming Dynasty, flower arrangement had become popular among the people and was also done during festivals, and this art became a trend. Due to the influence of Yuan Hongdao's "History of Vases", literati flower arrangement also became popular in Japan.

"Although Chinese flower arrangement has undergone many changes in the process of development, naturalism is still the basic spirit of flower arrangement. Yuan Hongdao, a famous flower artist in the Ming Dynasty, once said: "Flower arrangement should not be too complicated, nor too thin. There should be no more than two or three kinds of flowers, with different heights and density, just like the arrangement of a painting garden. Avoid placing flowers in pairs, avoid being uniform, avoid forming rows, and avoid being bound by ropes. The so-called neatness of flowers is precisely because they are uneven and natural, such as the random and discontinuous writing of Zizhan and the unconstrained parallelism of Qinglian's poems. This is true neatness. If the branches and leaves are equal, and the red and white match, this is like the trees under the Caochi and the steles at the gate of the tomb. How can it be neat?' This is the typical example of literati flower arrangement."

We strive to spread a "slow" attitude towards life. We subtract from life, withdraw ourselves from the fast-paced life, gradually understand our inner self in the slow life, gradually redefine freedom, re-recognize ourselves, re-recognize values, and let life start anew.
