Its calligraphy art is developed on the basis of Han Li and Kincaid, and it can be called the top grade in Han steles. Calligraphers in ancient and modern times gave the highest evaluation to this monument, which can be described as the integration of Chinese and steles.
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.
Extended data:
Wei Bei was discovered earlier, but it has never been taken seriously. In some works of calligraphers Ou Yangxun and Chu Suiliang in the Tang Dynasty, we can see the influence of inscriptions in the Northern Dynasties on them.
Because of Li Shimin's admiration for Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, the calligraphy style of Jin Dynasty, represented by Wang Shu, has been the mainstream in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, on the whole, the regular script in Tang Dynasty inherited the tradition of regular script in Jin Dynasty. Even if Wei Bei was adopted, it was mostly because of the calligrapher's personal interest and style, which failed to form an atmosphere of learning from Wei Bei in general.
In the Ming Dynasty, a calligraphy style called "Taige Style" appeared because the selection of scholars in imperial examinations became more and more rigid. "Taige" regular script is the official font stipulated by the imperial examination, which pursues beauty and elegance and also requires standards and norms.
