Brief introduction to the contents of Zhao Mengfu regular script copybook

Learning calligraphy and rubbings is the only way to enter the classroom. But there have been tens of thousands of inscriptions for thousands of years, which is really a subject worth studying.

Looking at the success of famous calligraphers, we must pay attention to two points. First, they are all ancient inscriptions, and they rarely learn the words of contemporary calligraphers. Second, in ancient inscriptions, they attached great importance to the famous inscriptions of famous artists and everyone.

Ou Yangxun, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan and Chu Suiliang were outstanding calligraphers in the Tang Dynasty, and their European, Yan, Liu and Chu styles were unparalleled, which became the unparalleled peak in the history of regular script. Although Zhao Mengfu was born later in the Yuan Dynasty, his Zhao Ti is free and easy, round and elegant, and the regular script after the Yuan Dynasty is rarely comparable to others. Therefore, based on the most famous manuscripts of these five regular script masters, we compiled this set of China calligraphy tutorial series, including five regular script copybooks of Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, Ou Yangxun, Chu Suiliang and Zhao Mengfu.

Zhao Mengfu's The West Chamber is based on Zhao Mengfu's Danba Monument.
