Li Yanqin Monument is one of the representative works of Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy in the most mature period. Its structure is dignified and open-minded, open-minded, dynamic and static, clever and clumsy, elegant and smart. His pen is horizontal and thin, vertical and thick, hiding the head and protecting the tail, and Fiona Fang uses it together, which is vigorous and powerful. Vertical painting takes the trend of "facing each other", the painting is thick and the goose tail is forked, hooked like a bird's mouth, and the momentum between paintings is coherent. The words in the tablet, the same stippling, have different changes, vivid and rhythmic. This monument emphasizes statutes and rules, and has the spirit of flourishing Tang Dynasty.
The brushwork refers to the brushwork of writing and stippling. In a broad sense, brushwork includes holding brushwork and using brushwork. In a narrow sense, brushwork refers to the "pen" method, that is, the method of writing various forms of stippling. Each stroke of China's calligraphy consists of three steps: beginning, moving and closing, and the concrete image is realized by two actions: vertical and horizontal. Commonly used brush strokes are described as follows:
Hidden front: it means that at the beginning of a stroke, the front of the pen moves backward first, and then the stroke is written after the front of the pen "folds" or "turns". The pen tip is hidden in the painting, leaving no trace. (See Figure 1)
Lu Feng: Take a pen and collect it. Here, it mainly refers to collecting the pen. When a pen is about to close, the pen tip is gradually lifted until it is pointed out of the picture. (See Figure 1)
Return stroke: refers to the return stroke, that is, at the end of stroke writing, the stroke is changed into a reverse stroke. (See Figure 2)
Grab the front: also known as "virtual grab" and "empty grab", it is Feng Lu's pen action when he starts and closes the pen. That is, when the dew front begins to write, it first makes a hidden front action in the air, and then enters the paper to start writing. When Feng Lu received the pen, he also put it away in the air according to the requirement of going back to the past and not shrinking. (See Figure 2)
Center: In the process of writing, make the pen tip run in the middle of the strokes. The central stroke can make the pen and ink of stippling even, steady and powerful. (See Figure 3)
Side pen: when writing, the pen tip is biased to one side of the stroke, and the stroke is flat and empty, which has no three-dimensional effect. It is forbidden to write a book. (See Figure 3) Pen pressing and pen lifting: Pen pressing refers to the downward movement of the pen; Lifting the pen means that the pen never leaves the paper, which can form a line change from thick to thin, as opposed to pressing the pen. (See Figure 3)
Dunbi: The heavier the pen, the lighter it is. (See Figure 4)
Understroke: refers to the slight movement of the position, which helps the strokes to achieve the perfect effect, and the word Yan is used more. (Figure 4)
Fang Bi and a round pen: those with edges and corners are square, and those without edges and corners are round. Fang Bi used the folding method, which is characterized by simplicity and tension; The round pen adopts the rotating method, which is characterized by full strength and softness on the outside and rigidity on the inside.
