Recently, Yi Xiaoyang, a wall painting on Hanyang West Street, created a new work in Hanyang Tree Park, which reproduces the familiar places of old Wuhan people in Wuhan, such as Xianzheng Street, Gongmian Archway, Hanyang Old Jinchun Sauce Factory, etc. This activity has attracted widespread attention and heated discussions.
According to the results of the navigation software, the Jimu News reporter found that the Gongmian archway was only a few hundred meters away from the Hanyang Tree. Gongmian memorial arch is located in the community near the intersection of Lanjiang Road and Yangxin Road, about two zhang high, more than three zhang wide, using Chinese style building, built in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, is the second-class historical protection building of Wuhan City. The torii was originally a four-pillar three-bay room, and later increased to a six-pillar five-bay chamber, with stone carvings on the top, but due to the defects of the war, one of them was damaged. In 1995, the torii was relocated 150 meters and the damaged part was repaired.
Gongmian Street, formerly known as Gongyuan Street, can be seen on the map of the ancient city of Hanyang in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the south of Xianzheng Street is full of educational institutions, including government schools, county schools, tribute institutes, academies and examination sheds. In front of the Gongmian torii is where the Gongyuan and the county school of Hanyang are located. This area is historically important and educational, and is closely related to the cultural heritage of Hanyang.
The creation of the wall painting on Hanyang West Street has aroused enthusiastic responses on the Internet. Many Wuhan citizens have expressed their nostalgia for these old Wuhan places. Many people shared the wall painting on social media and recalled their fond memories of these places. These enthusiastic responses show that this creative activity has succeeded in evoking people's emotional memories of old Wuhan and making them feel the historical charm of the city again.
The success of this wall painting creation campaign is also reminiscent of other similar events. In many cities at home and abroad, there are similar wall painting art creation activities, hoping to enrich the local cultural atmosphere through artistic expression and urban memory. For example, graffiti art on the Berlin wall abroad and Tianzifang wall painting creation in Shanghai in China are all used to show the city's history and cultural heritage through wall painting art.
The impact of this wall painting creation activity on society is positive. First of all, it evokes nostalgia for old Wuhan and makes people feel the city's cultural heritage again. Secondly, this event has also become a highlight of Wuhan's cultural tourism, attracting many tourists and culture lovers to visit and appreciate. At the same time, these wall paintings also provide a place for local residents to relax and entertain, adding a beautiful landscape to their lives.
As of now, it is not known whether there is any new progress in this wall painting creation activity. However, in any case, this event has already left a deep impression on the citizens of Hanyang and the audience at large. Showcasing the history and culture of a city through art can inspire love and attention to the city.
