Li Yong

Taihe, a native of Jiangdu, Yangzhou, is the prefect of Beihai, whose name is Li Beihai. His words began with "two kings", but they can be both inside and outside. Li Houzhu said: "Li Yong was angry with the right general and lost his physique." Tell me what Li Yong is good at. "Xuan He Shu Pu" said: "Yong is good at calligraphy, and the cursive name stays. It's wonderful for beginners and generals to practice the law, but they get rid of old habits and have new pen power. " Ye Youdao Monument, Yuelu Temple Monument and General Yunhui Monument are his representative works. His brushwork is vigorous and powerful in Xu Xiasheng, giving people a bold and lively feeling. Su Dongpo and Mi Fei both absorbed some of his characteristics, and Zhao Mengfu in Yuan Dynasty also tried his best to pursue his brushwork, from which he got the realm of "graceful" calligraphy. He had a great influence on later generations.

His major works:

Lushan Temple Monument is the representative work of Li Yong's regular script. The brushwork is straight and magnificent. Commenting on his book, Huang Tingjian said: "The momentum is magnificent, which is really amazing, and the skills I hate are too profound. Nothing more than halving merit and reviving amethyst. " This tablet is as vigorous as the Five Mountains. Li Sixun Monument has always been regarded as Li Yong's calligraphy masterpiece.

Li Sixun tablet:

Yang Shen said in the Collection of Yang Sheng 'an in Ming Dynasty: "The Monument to General Yunhui written by Li Beihai is the first. Its melting method is a kind of Lanting method. However, putting pen difference will increase its arrogance, enrich its body and benefit its charm. For example, Lu Xun's demeanor is elegant and meaningful. "
