The representative calligrapher of Ming Dynasty calligraphy introduced;
1, Dong Qichang
Dong Qichang, a native of Er Shen, was born in Huating, Songjiang (now Songjiang County, Shanghai) and was influenced by calligraphy art since childhood. He carefully copied the pen and ink of ancient famous artists, and mastered the strengths of each family in terms of pen and ink, structural layout and so on. His regular script pen has Yan Zhenqing's frankness, while the layout is Yang Ningshi's carefree Shu Lang.
Looks like Zhao Mengfu. The cursive script is rooted in Yan Zhenqing's "Contention for Seats" and "Sacrifice for Nephew", with Huai Su's roundness and Mi Fei's ups and downs. Calligraphy in Dong Qichang can be said to be a masterpiece of ancient law. His "six forms" and "eight methods" are all accurate and at the same time good at appreciation. Although the calligraphy and painting with the title is a word, it is also regarded as a treasure by collectors.
2. Wen Zhiming
Wen Zhiming, formerly known as the Great Wall, has a distinct personality. At the age of forty-two, I began to use line words, and line words were less important. Because of its predecessor Hengshan, it was named Hengshan Jushi, and the world called "Wenhengshan". Former official Hanlin, born in Changzhou (now Suzhou, Jiangsu). Born in Chenghua, Ming Xianzong for six years, he died at the age of ninety in Jiajing, Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty. He is good at poetry, calligraphy and painting. I have been a poet of Bai Juyi and Su Shi for seven years. He was educated in Wu Kuan, studied in Liying Town and studied painting in Shenzhen.
In terms of poetry and prose, he, Zhu Yunming, Tang Yin and Xu Zhenqing are also called "four gifted scholars in Wuzhong". In painting, he studied under Shen Zhou, elegant and graceful. Compared with Shen Zhou, Tang Mao,? Chou Ying is known as the "Si Wu family". In terms of calligraphy, he was influenced by his father and friends to write Su Ti in his early years, and later by his father-in-law, Li Yingzhen, and learned more brushwork in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. Learning from the Jin and Tang Dynasties, Xiaokai became stronger.
3. Zhu Yunming
Zhu Yunming was born in Shan Zhi, Changzhou (now Wuxian, Jiangsu). He has been very clever since he was a child. At the age of five, he could write Chinese characters one foot square. At the age of nine, he was able to write poetry. Later, he read widely and wrote strange poems. In his early years, he used regular script carefully, studied under Zhao Mengfu and Chu Suiliang, and recounted the "two kings" from Europe and Europe. His book Examples is rigorous and simple.
In his later years, Huang Tingjing was written without paying attention to the shape of stippling, but it was dense in structure and full of charm. His cursive calligraphy, Huang Tingjian, and Mi Fei have profound skills, especially in his later years. My favorite works are Poems of Taihu Lake, Elegance and Red Cliff Fu, which are fluent, free and unrestrained.
