Among ancient Chinese stone sculpture, works of arts and crafts occupy an absolute position. Although there are few pure stone carving works in ancient times, the aesthetic feeling, sense of volume and sense of weight in shape have the remarkable characteristics of stone carving. Decoration is a major feature of ancient Chinese traditional stone sculpture. Ancient Chinese stone sculpture have obvious painting properties. The colored painting on the stone carving improves the expressive ability of the stone carving.

Third, the emphasis is on shape
This was continued in ancient Greece, and the golden ratio was used in stone sculpture at that time. The stone sculpture of western characters are vivid and lively! Western aesthetics emphasize straightforwardness, clarity, and boldness; Western figure stone sculpture emphasize the beauty displayed by themselves. For example, the statue of the Roman Emperor Augustus: with piercing eyes, as if seeing a bright future. In the stone sculpture of Western figures, men and women are mostly half-naked or naked, giving people a strong visual impact.

Chinese stone sculpture hope to express this beauty directly and melodiously, and hope that the audience can associate and feel it. Western civilization is a typical marine civilization, which focuses on adventure and conquest, and is extremely expansive. This kind of civilization reflected in the stone carving art will particularly highlight its own heroic temperament and outgoing and bold aesthetic taste.
