Everyone only knows that Wang Xizhi's "Ping An Tie" sold at a high price of 308 million yuan, but you may not know that the lot won at such a high price is not a complete work, and even this work has only 4 1 left, which shows the preciousness of this work. In fact, calligraphers' masterpieces handed down over the years are really rare, so in fact, this work can be bought at this price mainly because of its preciousness, because almost all versions of Ping An Tie that appeared before this are imitations, and Wang Xizhi's works are rarely circulated in the world now, so its auction price is so expensive.
Apart from the scarcity of handed down works, the price of this work is so high because of its high value. Although there are only 465,438+0 words, it shows the most typical characteristics of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy structure, that is, his pursuit of change and beauty. In addition, looking at the whole work, we can see that the overall style of the work is static, dangerous, stable and beautiful, and the change of brush strokes can reflect the expression of Wang Xizhi's inner feelings.
It is precisely because of Wang Xizhi's profound calligraphy skills and rare works that Wang Xizhi's existing 4 1 word "Ping An Tie" can fetch a high price of 308 million.
