This monument has no forehead.

Cao Quanbei, as a representative work of mature official script in the Eastern Han Dynasty, has a high position in the minds of scholars and calligraphy critics in past dynasties. Compared with the rough Han stele of his contemporaries, if a gentleman with graceful demeanor has a high level of self-cultivation, his personality is neither violent nor violent, fair and peaceful, which conforms to the norms and floats away, in stark contrast to the style of the inscription that pursues truth and simplicity.
