Abstract: (727 Views)
The art of carving in Golpayegan has a unique style that should be traced back in the cultural characteristics and climate of the region. Considering that so far no comprehensive and complete research has been done regarding the analysis of motifs in terms of anthropology in this field; The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of climate and local culture of Golpayegan on the motifs used in the inlays of this city. From this point of view, it seeks to answer the question, what are the environmental and cultural factors affecting the various inlay patterns of Golpayegan? The findings indicate that what is presented in the Golpayegan carving is the result of the culture, beliefs, and beliefs of the people of this area. Also, the climate and weather conditions of Golpayegan, the existence of walnut and pear orchards that make it easy to access wood suitable for carving, the existence of the Mote protected area, which is the habitat of various species of animals and birds, as well as the medicinal plants of the Zagros mountains, are the main reasons for using it. It is one of the various motifs in the carving of this region. One of the reasons for inlaying on wooden works is to beautify and show objects that are used in daily life and are mostly practical. The method of collecting materials is library and field through interviews with renowned professors and photography. The research method is developmental and descriptive-analytical with an anthropological approach.
