Wood carving in Tang Dynasty tends to be perfect. Many of the wooden Buddha statues preserved today are masterpieces of ancient Chinese art. Wood carving is divided into craft wood carving and art wood carving. Among them, craft woodcarving can be divided into ornamental and practical. Wood was originally a living object. Since ancient times, people have found that it is particularly gentle and beautiful, as well as simple quality. Our ancestors made use of local materials to create many exquisite woodcarving works. It has the characteristics of concise modeling, fluent knife technique and clear and bright lines. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the themes of wood carving were mostly auspicious patterns and fairy tales. Such themes as auspicious celebration, bumper harvest, auspicious dragon and Phoenix, peaceful and Ruyi, and longevity of pine and crane were popular in the society at that time. Wood carving is one of the most popular and collected works of art, which occupies an important position in the history of Chinese art.
