頌簋制作于西周晚期,共(gong)和或(huo)宣王時(shi)期。此時(shi),銅簋基(ji)本都配有(you)對應的(de)器(qi)(qi)蓋,器(qi)(qi)蓋倒放就(jiu)是(shi)一個盤子,也(ye)可以(yi)用來(lai)盛食。器(qi)(qi)足為獸面象(xiang)鼻形,象(xiang)的(de)題材在(zai)(zai)銅器(qi)(qi)中常(chang)見(jian),大概商周時(shi)期象(xiang)的(de)分布比現(xian)在(zai)(zai)要(yao)靠(kao)北,在(zai)(zai)當(dang)時(shi)交通如此不便的(de)情(qing)況(kuang)下,人(ren)們也(ye)能(neng)見(jian)到。例(li)如殷墟(xu)出土(tu)有(you)完整(zheng)的(de)小象(xiang)骨骼,并且項戴銅鈴,可能(neng)是(shi)主人(ren)生前的(de)寵(chong)物(wu)。
器身(shen)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)主要(yao)紋(wen)(wen)(wen)飾是(shi)竊曲(qu)紋(wen)(wen)(wen),竊曲(qu)紋(wen)(wen)(wen)由兩(liang)端回鉤的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)或(huo)“S”形(xing)(xing)(xing)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)線條構(gou)成(cheng)(cheng)扁長(chang)(chang)形(xing)(xing)(xing)圖案(an),有的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)中(zhong)間(jian)填以(yi)(yi)(yi)目形(xing)(xing)(xing)紋(wen)(wen)(wen),在銅器上(shang)往往連(lian)接成(cheng)(cheng)帶(dai)狀(zhuang)。《呂氏(shi)春(chun)秋(qiu)·適(shi)威》:“周鼎(ding)有竊曲(qu)(一作(zuo)窮曲(qu)),狀(zhuang)甚(shen)長(chang)(chang),上(shang)下皆(jie)曲(qu),以(yi)(yi)(yi)見極(ji)之敗也。”盛行(xing)于西(xi)周中(zhong)、后期,春(chun)秋(qiu)時(shi)仍(reng)沿用。竊曲(qu)紋(wen)(wen)(wen)是(shi)龍紋(wen)(wen)(wen)和饕(tao)餮紋(wen)(wen)(wen)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)變體(ti),竊曲(qu)紋(wen)(wen)(wen)卷曲(qu)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)條狀(zhuang)當是(shi)取(qu)形(xing)(xing)(xing)于夔(kui)紋(wen)(wen)(wen)、顧龍紋(wen)(wen)(wen)之身(shen)軀,但其構(gou)造、布局則(ze)不僅取(qu)形(xing)(xing)(xing)于諸(zhu)種龍紋(wen)(wen)(wen),而且借(jie)鑒了饕(tao)餮紋(wen)(wen)(wen)與上(shang)述變形(xing)(xing)(xing)饕(tao)餮紋(wen)(wen)(wen)圖案(an)構(gou)形(xing)(xing)(xing)手法。然(ran)而從總體(ti)看,竊曲(qu)紋(wen)(wen)(wen)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)出現(xian)使以(yi)(yi)(yi)往莊嚴、神秘(mi)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)動(dong)物紋(wen)(wen)(wen)解體(ti),進(jin)一步促進(jin)了青(qing)銅器紋(wen)(wen)(wen)飾的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)抽象化與幾何(he)圖形(xing)(xing)(xing)化,因而在青(qing)銅器紋(wen)(wen)(wen)飾發展史中(zhong)有著重(zhong)要(yao)作(zuo)用。頌簋的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)竊曲(qu)紋(wen)(wen)(wen)中(zhong)間(jian)是(shi)目紋(wen)(wen)(wen),即眼睛的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)樣子,整體(ti)呈“S”形(xing)(xing)(xing),兩(liang)端分叉,這是(shi)典型(xing)的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)西(xi)周晚期的(de)(de)(de)(de)(de)樣式。
頌簋(gui)的流傳如同其他青銅(tong)重器一樣,充滿了(le)傳奇色彩。清(qing)嘉慶十九年(1814年)學者劉喜(xi)海(hai)在北(bei)京購得,并編入《清(qing)愛堂(tang)彝(yi)器款識》。劉喜(xi)海(hai)(1793—1853),諸(zhu)(zhu)城(cheng)人,劉墉從孫,是清(qing)道、咸間金(jin)(jin)石(shi)學家、古(gu)泉學家、藏書(shu)家,字(zi)燕庭(ting)(又作燕亭、硯庭(ting))、吉甫,山東(dong)諸(zhu)(zhu)城(cheng)人,別號三巴(ba)子(zi)。善鑒(jian)賞(shang)(shang)金(jin)(jin)石(shi),著有(you)《海(hai)東(dong)金(jin)(jin)石(shi)苑(yuan)補(bu)遺》等鑒(jian)賞(shang)(shang)書(shu)籍(ji),其所補(bu)編《古(gu)泉匯考》為當(dang)時古(gu)泉學集大(da)成之巨著,嘉惠后(hou)世泉學研究;《三巴(ba)金(jin)(jin)石(shi)苑(yuan)》為巴(ba)蜀地區(qu)歷代金(jin)(jin)石(shi)圖(tu)文(wen)并茂之第一部著錄,對后(hou)世影響頗(po)大(da)。
