We often say that words are like people. Yan Zhenqing's words embody the perfect combination of calligraphy beauty and personality beauty. Yu called Yan Zhenqing a milestone of cultural personality in the Tang Dynasty?
The most noteworthy collective personality has two forms, one is extensive popularity, and the other is high-standard independence. Yan Zhenqing obviously belongs to the second category, which is not universal but symbolic. This is like the landmark we often say now, unattainable, but it is the mark and product number that the whole land presents to the outside world. Landmarks are not easy to climb, but they are the representatives of a city and a region.
Therefore, Yan Zhenqing is a milestone of cultural personality in the Tang Dynasty, a brand of our China culture and a representative of China people.
