Shi San Pan is an outstanding representative work of the peak of calligraphy art in the bronze age in the late Western Zhou Dynasty, and it is an excellent model for learning Da Zhuan. The inscription has simple structure, round and concise lines and late handwriting rate.
The font is flat, and it looks strange and vivid, and it has opened the end of "grass seal". Because the sideways trend leads to a lower center of gravity, it is relatively simple and thick. It has a strong sense of casting and occupies an important position in the epigraphy system.

Seal script is one of the ancient Chinese characters of jujube, also called seal script, which is a general term for ancient Chinese characters. "Seal makers spread it, spread its physics, and apply it endlessly." The ancients thought that seal script was written by Cang Xie, and his shit was not credible. It takes a long time for a character to develop, and it is impossible for a person to finish it in a short time.
Broadly speaking, seal script includes all the characters before official script and their extended genera, such as inscriptions on bronze inscriptions, Shi Guwen, ancient prose of the Six Kingdoms, seal script of Xiao, seal script of Miao and overprint. In a narrow sense, it mainly refers to Da Zhuan and Xiao Zhuan. The font of seal script is round and the structure conforms to the meaning of six books, so Sun said in the Tang Dynasty, "Seal script is graceful and smooth".
Among the stone carvings handed down from ancient times, Shi Guwen is the most representative. This kind of stone tool is undoubtedly the oldest and most reliable stone cultural relic in China. It is now in the Palace Museum in Beijing. Shi Guwen has an important position in the history of calligraphy.
