How does China's calligraphy sign?

1, if it is a single paragraph, simply only the writer's name or time; If it is a complicated writing, it is necessary to explain the content, such as the author of this poem (including epigraph), why it was written, when and where it was written, or the name of the study.

2. The two paragraphs refer to the names of the patients, such as ×× Letter Instruction, Yazheng, Axe Correction and Wrist Correction. The style of the inscription is generally a running script, the font is smaller than the text, and it is written on the left side of the text, which is equivalent to a line of words. Some inscriptions have a lot of words, but the words are not as many as inscriptions, so inscriptions are also part of the text layout. The text is large and sparse, and the inscription is small and tight, so that all changes are unified. If the number of words in the inscription is small, the distance between the inscription and the name and seal can be widened, but symmetry is appropriate. The place and seal under the name should not exceed the bottom line of the text, preferably half a word or one word away. If only a limited space is left for the inscription after writing, the inscription should be simple, with only the name, year, month and seal, or only the name and seal.

Extended data:

In ancient times, letters, calligraphy and paintings all had inscriptions. When giving gifts, the name and date were written vertically with a brush to show the giver and the recipient. This is also a form of expression of calligraphy art. A calligraphy work should be completed in a holistic sense, and the inscription can show the accomplishment and talent of a calligrapher. Nowadays, many people sign official documents and notes, which are generally written horizontally, indicating that they have legal effect.

Ancient painters and painters generally used the method of combining the emperor's year number with the official calendar and lunar calendar to record the year, month and day as needed. For example, Wang Xizhi's Preface to Lanting: "Yonghe is nine years old and ugly at the beginning of spring"; "Yonghe Nine Years" is the year number of the emperor, and "Guichou Year" is the year of the dry calendar. Another example is Shi Huizhan's "Buddha said that he was born": "Chen Taijian is eight years old, report it."
