The characters represented include emperors and generals, talented scholars and beauties, as well as various figures from the three religions and nine streams. . People from different dynasties and different statuses wear different costumes and play different roles, which forces opera artists to formulate a set of rules for wearing costumes.

The style of costume is an important symbol of the character's social status. Taking helmets as an example, they can be roughly divided into four categories: crowns, caps, helmets, and scarves. Emperors wear crowns, civil servants wear gauze hats, generals wear helmets, and poor scholars wear square scarves. They have the same crown, but the wing styles are divided into three types: upward, straight, and downward. The upward ones are called sky-facing wings and are worn by emperors and high-ranking officials; the gauze hats of ordinary civil servants have straight wings; the downward-facing wings are worn by non-officials. The one who also wears a gauze hat with golden flowers is the champion, and the one with wings is the prince consort. Opera clothes are divided into python (including official clothes), drapes, drapes, pleats, etc. The general rule is that emperors and civil servants wear python robes, generals wear robes, and common people mostly wear pleated robes.

The different ways of wearing costumes also reflect different situations. A waist skirt is tied outside the clothes. When walking, you hold the skirt corners with both hands, which shows the miserable situation of running around. The two streamers hanging from the back of Vincent's scarf are tied to the edge of the scarf and tied with a knot on the left side. It can be used to show that people are in a hurry; before the marshal goes out to fight, he puts on his body and wears a python, which gives people the feeling of being a soldier.

2. Peking Opera costumes and facial makeup knowledge in Chinese dramas

Mr. Zhang Geng, a senior dramatist with facial makeup knowledge, said: "Facial makeup is a unique style in Chinese opera that is used in stage performances. The makeup art used in Chinese opera.

From a drama point of view, it is character-based; from an art point of view, it is pattern-based. Over the long years, opera facial makeup has been the most popular. With the development and maturity of opera, it gradually took shape and was relatively fixed in the form of musical notation."

Face makeup is unique to Chinese opera and is different from any drama makeup in other countries. Opera facial makeup has a unique charm. What is the relationship between facial makeup and opera characters? Does every character in the opera need to have facial makeup? The answer is no. Not every character needs to draw facial makeup. The facial makeup must be drawn according to the classification of the characters.

According to traditional customs, there are two ways to classify the roles of characters in Chinese opera: "Sheng, Dan, Jing, Chou" and "Sheng, Dan, Jing, Mo, Chou". Since modern times, Since the "mo" line of many dramas has gradually been classified into the "sheng" line, "sheng, dan, jing, and ugly" are usually regarded as the four basic types of the line. Each profession has its own hard-working branches, each with its own basically fixed characters and performance characteristics.

Among them, "Dan" is the collective name for female characters: "Sheng" and "Jing", and the two lines are male characters: in the "Chou" line, except for sometimes playing Chou Dan and Lao Dan, most of them are men. Role. Generally speaking, the makeup of "Sheng" and "Dan" is to apply a little makeup to achieve a beautifying effect. This kind of makeup is called "Junmei", also called "plain face" or "cleansing face".

It is characterized by "a thousand faces", which means that the facial makeup of all characters in the "生" line is roughly the same. No matter how many characters there are, they all have the same face from the facial makeup: "Dan" line The facial makeup of the characters is also similar no matter how many characters there are. The personalities of "Sheng" and "Dan" characters are mainly expressed through performances and costumes.

Facial makeup is used for various characters in the "clean" and "ugly" professions. It uses exaggerated strong colors and endlessly changing lines to change the actor's true appearance, which is in line with the "plain" "life" ", "Dan" makeup contrasts. The hooked faces of the "Jing" and "Chou" characters are based on the person's profile, and each person has one profile. Although it is composed of various stylized profiles, it is a kind of character makeup that directly expresses the character's personality. How many " There are many different types of roles for "clean" and "ugly" characters.

Therefore, the characteristics of facial makeup are "ever-changing" and "pure", commonly known as painted faces. The patterned facial makeup outlined in various colors is the prominent symbol, showing a rough, majestic and heroic character in character and temperament.

In performance, this type of character should have a broad and loud voice, a strong and vigorous singing, thick and sharp lines of movement, large "color blocks", wide opening and closing, and magnificent bearing. For example, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Cao Cao, Bao Zheng, Lian Po, etc. are all in pure disguise.

According to their different identities, personalities and artistic and technical characteristics, Jingxing characters can be roughly divided into Zhengjing (commonly known as Dahualian), Fujing (commonly known as Erhualian) and Wujing (commonly known as Wuer). flower). There are also two painted faces and two painted faces in the auxiliary net.

Ugly people are commonly known as little painted faces or three colored faces. Zhengjing (big painted face) mainly performs work.

Also known as Tongchuihualian or Blackheadhualian in Peking Opera, the character played is Lian Po in "The Harmony of Generals and Prime Ministers". Most of them are important officials in the court, so winning with grandeur is a characteristic of its shape. Vice Jing (also known as Erhua Lian) can be divided into frame Hua Lian and Er Hua Lian.

The painted faces are mainly about workmanship and body movements. They usually play bold and brave positive characters, such as Lu Zhishen, Zhang Fei, Li Kui, etc. There are also those who play villains, such as Cao Cao, who has a white face in Peking Opera, and is also played by a painted face.

In other operas, most of them are not called painted faces, and some operas are called straw sandals, such as Sichuan Opera, Hunan Opera, etc. Erhualian is also a kind of pretentious person, with relatively few plays, and sometimes the performance is almost ugly, such as Liu Biao in "Famen Temple".

Wu Jing (Wu Erhua) is divided into two categories: heavy handle work and heavy falling and simple beating. Characters such as Yang Qilang in "Golden Beach" and Li Yuanba in "Siping Mountain" play heavy work frame roles.

The type of heavy falling, plain beating and beating is also called beating and painting faces. For example, in "Pick the Pulley" Niu Gao has a painted face, Jin Wushu has a martial face, and Jin Wushu's general Heifeng Li beats the painted face.

"Chou" (little painted face or three-faced face) is a comedy character. The face is drawn between the bridge of the nose and the eye sockets, and they often play funny and teasing characters. In performances, there is generally no heavy singing, and the main focus is on clear and fluent speech.

For example, Laosheng, Xiaosheng, and Wusheng appeared in the Shengxing; Laodan, Qingyi, Huadan, Wudan, and Daomadan appeared in the Danxing; Tongchui, Wujing, and Jiahua appeared in the Jingxing; and Wen Chou and Wu Chou appeared in the Chou Xing. , this division is enough to see that the original trades were limited in expressing characters.

Trending towards maturity, and as one of the comprehensive arts, costume creates the external appearance of the character for the performance.
