Wei Bei font is used for visual inspection.
Weibei, the general name for writing and carving stones in the Northern Dynasties in China during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, is the most elaborate in the Northern Wei Dynasty, which can be roughly divided into four types: inscriptions, epitaphs, statues and cliff carvings. Calligraphy at this time is a transitional calligraphy system that connects the past with the future and opens up the future. Zhong Zhishuai said that Wei Bei "can see the old customs of Han and Qin dynasties from above, and can observe the habits of Sui and Tang dynasties from below." Wei Bei's calligraphy had a great influence on the formation of regular script in Sui and Tang Dynasties. In the process of innovation and change, calligraphers of past dynasties also learned useful essence from it.
Weibei has a variety of styles, simple and steep, comfortable and beautiful. Famous ones include Zheng Wengong Monument, Zhang Menglong Monument, Gao Zhen Monument, Yuan Huai Epitaph and Zhang Xuan Epitaph, which initiated the rule of regular script in Sui and Tang Dynasties. In the middle of Qing dynasty, he advocated "respecting monuments and restraining posts", which broke through the bondage of "pavilion style". With the rise of inscriptions, the style of calligraphy has changed. Wei Bei inherited the tradition of Han Li and created a new style of Tang Kai, which laid a solid foundation for the structure and brushwork of modern Chinese characters. But there are many cliff carvings, which are carved directly on the stone surface, not the first book. Be careful not to exaggerate the knife marks when writing, so as not to form a habit.
