The word "beauty" appeared for the first time in Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Shang Dynasty. Many scholars believe that this word "beauty" is a combination of "sheep" and "people". As the image of the first performance of the ancients, it is often to imitate animals, and sheep is an object that people like to imitate most. Why is there the word "beauty"? This reflects the significance that people think that sheep and beautiful people are combined at that time, and it has risen to. A lot can be learned about the cultural background, social progress and other aspects of human thought through the characters themselves.

In addition to practical significance, writing has aesthetic significance, that is, to make every word look good when written. When written, early calligraphers appeared, which is the second most important aesthetic in Shang Dynasty and the starting point of China calligraphy art.

In the 20th century, what was the most precious gift brought to us by the unearthed Shang civilization? Of course, it was not the technology, economy and politics of that time. Even if they are excellent, they have already been surpassed, and they will never be surpassed, but they will always have immediate value, which is the result of aesthetic filtering of the times. No one will deny that the structure, form and pattern of bronzes and jades in Shang Dynasty show the beginning of a great national aesthetic. This is not imitating the originality of our ancestors a few years ago, nor is it plagiarism and imitation.

For a long time, historians at home and abroad have always regarded material progress and ideological progress as the generalization of an era. In fact, the end has summed up the aesthetic significance of the structure. In other words, the triple combination of truth, goodness and beauty is summarized as beauty.
