What s the most beautiful calligraphy you ve ever seen?

Evaluating the quality of calligraphy works should not be based solely on personal preferences and subjective feelings, and it is meaningless to point fingers at the works without knowing the evolution of Chinese characters and the basic knowledge of calligraphy.

The evolution of Chinese character fonts has gone through a long historical process. The oracle bone inscription is the earliest physical document that appeared in the Shang Dynasty. The oracle bone inscription later evolved into the golden inscription.

After the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, the script was unified, and the small seal of the Qin State was promulgated throughout the country as the standard font. At the same time as the seal script was popular, the official script adapted to the needs of the time, gradually formed and matured. Since then, during the Wei and Jin dynasties, regular script, line script, cursive script and other calligraphy styles appeared one after another.

So far, calligraphy is complete and has been inherited to this day. Therefore, when evaluating a calligraphy work, it is first necessary to determine what style the calligraphy work is written in and whether it conforms to the basic rules of the font. If it doesn't conform to the basic rules of the book style, it is nondescript and scribbled.

Secondly, to appreciate calligraphy works, it is necessary to understand the knowledge of stroke techniques, stroke postures, knot rules, knot characteristics, chapter style, overall layout, etc. Otherwise, you can only know it but not know why.

After learning about the evolution of fonts and the basics of calligraphy, let's talk about the most beautiful calligraphy works. This question is a matter of opinion. Personally, my answer is this.

Among the official books, I admire "Cao Quanbi" the most. Among the regular scripts, I love Ouyang Xun's "Jiucheng Palace Liquan Ming" the most. Of course, what I like in the book is the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" by Wang Xizhi, the first book in the world. In cursive writing, I am most fascinated by Huaisu's "Self-Description".

Just this word is better than what calligraphy and painting experts write. Some calligraphy experts are fake. Money to buy the certificate.

The calligraphy of "Lanting Collection Preface", the brushwork is rigid and soft, the lines change flexibly, the dot painting is concise, and the calligraphy body seeks correctness with scattering, with the beauty of respecting, giving and contrasting, and has become a model of the "beauty of neutralization" calligraphy style.

Any calligraphy work is the accumulation of a certain culture and history, and it is the product of a specific historical and cultural background.

Calligraphy refers to the art of writing, especially the art of writing early Chinese characters with a brush. Calligraphy can be divided into five types: seal script, official script, cursive script, line script, and regular script.

There are many people who like calligraphy very much in <> and think that calligraphy is very beautiful, but do you know why calligraphy is so beautiful? Let me give you a popular science below!

1.The strength of the pen line is beautiful. This refers to the beauty of power that can be felt in the form of dot painting and writing in calligraphy works. For example, the calligrapher Zhang Xu's lingering and swaying, and Yan Zhenqing's Shen Xiong's round and turbid, all show the strength and beauty of the calligraphy line.

2.The inky beauty of the lines. For example, the simplicity and vigor of dry ink, the vigorous and dignified thick ink, the fresh and elegant light ink, etc., all highlight the beauty of the ink color of the calligraphy font lines.

3.The rhythm and rhythmic beauty of the lines. Calligraphy uses the rigidity and softness of the lines, the lightness and weight, the straightness, the frustration, the speed and slowness, etc., to show the rhythm and rhythm of the art of Chinese characters. The combination of rigidity and softness in regular script, the ups and downs of cursive script, etc., all show the rhythm and rhythmic beauty of the lines.

2, Yan Zhenqing.

When Yan Zhenqing was three years old, his father died of illness, and he was educated by his mother, Mrs. Yin. Later, Mrs. Yin took him south and lived in his grandfather's house. His grandfather was a calligrapher and painter, Yan Zhenqing was smart and clever, and he was very fond of him, so he taught him to read and write.

On the one hand, Mrs. Yin was pleased that the child studied hard, but on the other hand, she was worried about the money. It is difficult at home for Yan Zhenqing to buy paper, ink, pen and inkstone to practice calligraphy. But I don't want to delay my child's education, and my hair is gray.

Yan Zhenqing learned of his mother's suffering, and he thought of a way to tell Mrs. Yin that she didn't have to worry about buying paper and pens for him. Mrs. Yin said, does it cost money to practice calligraphy? Yan Zhenqing held a bowl and a brush and said

The bowl is an inkstone, the brush is a pen, the yellow mud in the bowl is ink, and as for the paper, this whole wall is it. ”

After that, Yan Zhenqing practiced calligraphy on the wall, and when the wall was full, he washed it off with clean water. With this persistence and diligence, Yan Zhenqing's words are getting better and better day by day.
