条幅和中堂一样同为书画艺术表现的传统幅式及常见的幅武,为书画格式立幅家族中的小巧者。但形式不同于中堂的长方形,悬挂的位置也有别于中堂所挂的厅堂正中,多悬挂在房屋的山墙上。在我国传统对称式房屋结构中,中间的一间称为堂屋。堂屋两边的山墙(也称脊墙),高而窄,因而悬挂于两边山墙上的书画作品也相应地加长偏窄一些。故此条幅又称为“条山”、“山条”或“桃山”。 As with traditional painting and calligraphy, the banner is the same as the traditional one in the painting and calligraphy. But the form is different from the rectangle in the hall, the hanging position is also different from the hall hanging in the middle of the hall, and more hanging in the house gable. In our traditional symmetrical house structure, the middle one is called a dorm room. Gables on both sides of the gable (also known as the ridge wall), tall and narrow, and thus hanging on both sides of the gable painting works correspondingly longer and narrower. So the banner is also known as the “mountain”, “mountain” or “Momoyama.”
