驱邪卫宅的中国传统门神画
门神画是中国民间美术中历史最为悠久的绘画类别之一，每逢春节前夕，家家户户都会张贴门神，用以驱邪避鬼、保卫家宅、祈福祝祷。门神画承载着中国人民数千年来的神话想象与美好愿望。起源最早的门神当属“神荼”“郁垒”。经过数千年的传承，门神的形象在不同时代、不同地域都有着不同的面貌，时至今日，仍然不断推陈出新，但其核心功能都是“守卫与赐福”。

Traditional Chinese Door Guardians to ward off evil spirits
Door guardians/ Door gods (menshen) paintings are one of the oldest paintings in Chinese folk art. Every household will post door guardians/door gods on the eve of the Spring Festival/Chinese Lunar New Year to ward off evil spirits, protect the home, and pray for blessings. The door guardians/ door gods painting carry the mythical imagination and beautiful wishes of the Chinese people for thousands of years. The earliest door guardians /door gods are undoubtedly “Shen Tu” and “Yulei”. After thousands of years of inheritance, the image of the door god has had different appearances in different eras and regions. Until today, it is still constantly being updated with new ideas, but its core functions are “guarding and blessing”.
