Ancient portraits of military generals have big tummies, is that really true?

In fact, only a very few part of the generals their stomach is very round, as we say the general belly. And this part of the generals, many of which are older older generals, we look at the portrait of the ancient generals, will find that this part of the generals they have a *** with the same characteristics, that is, in fact, the age of not small, and the reason why they will cause them to the image of a big waist, the first reason is that their age. The second reason is the aesthetics of the ancient people at the time of painting.

First of all, the first reason is the age. We usually see those big waist with a big belly of the generals, are some of the age of the generals, for example, in the portrait of Lian Po we have seen. Dong Zhuo's portrait, Cao Cao's portrait is a big waist, with a big belly, and these portraits have a **** the same characteristics, that is, the age of these people look at least have to be about 40 years old, and at 40 years old in ancient times can be considered an older age, because the life expectancy of the people at that time would have been very short.

On the other hand, since these generals are older, they have fewer chances to kill on the battlefield, instead of commanding from the rear of the battlefield, which results in the generals not being able to keep their mouths shut and not being able to move their legs, which slowly gives them a big belly. Of course, this is only for these aged generals, in fact, in ancient times the young generals are still very good figure, like we see Huo Zai Deng. Their figures are definitely considered to be men of type nowadays. On the other hand is in the portrait of the aesthetics, in ancient times when the portrait must be painted to the generals painted some of the mighty, and in the ancient aesthetics that the bladder and waist such an image can fully meet the mighty image of an army of generals. And we will find that in ancient times, especially when we listen to others sing opera, will find that in ancient times those who do officials, their waist around will hang some things. If the painting is too thin then it looks bad.
