What is the legendary phoenix eye like?

The tail of the eye is upturned with moderate warping, the tail of the eye is higher than the corner of the eye, the inner corner of the eye is downward, and the upper eyelid slightly extends to cover the lacrimal mound and presents a small skin fold, that is, the inner canthus fold; On the other hand, the outer corner of the eye is upward, which is not obvious to many people, but there are also many. The eye shape of the phoenix eye is slender, and the tail of the eye extends obliquely upward to the temple. The inner tip is expanded or quadrangular, because in ancient times, it was like adding an eye shape to a single eyelid, just like an eye wave cycle. It is expected that the brilliance of the phoenix eye will become a typical eye standard in ancient China.

In the history of ancient painting, there are also many examples of phoenix eyes and bearded beauties. Born of Gautama Buddha, reportedly written by Wu Daozi, a painter in the Tang Dynasty, was an emperor with a baby in his arms. It is the facial features of phoenix eye and moustache, similar to the jade emperor statue in Dazu stone carving in Song Dynasty. During the Five Dynasties, in Gu's famous painting Han Xizai's Night Banquet, the protagonist Han Xizai was the eye of the phoenix, with a long beard hanging straight down on his chest, which looked lofty.

In Song Dynasty, Wu Zongyuan's "The Battle Map of the Immortals in Yuan Dynasty" also depicts characters with the eyes of the Phoenix. The angle of his eyes is very similar to that of a civil servant in a cave in Huang San. There is a similar performance in the Song Dynasty painter Li's "Nine Songs". One of them wears a golden crown, which looks like a mustache and has a sense of elegance.
