Shi Guwen immediately has a drum-shaped stone with a bronze inscription on it. Shi Guwen is a four-character poem, which is the oldest stone carving in China. It is also called "hunting" because it describes hunting in Qin Huang. The font is between ancient prose and Qin Zhuan, which is generally called "Da Zhuan". Whether the stone drum was carved before or after the Qin Dynasty is inconclusive in archaeology.
Guo Moruo thinks this is the work of Qin Xianggong (777-766 BC). Liu Xing and Liu Mu's research on the restoration and interpretation of Shi Gu Shi Fu shows that under the Book Burning Order, Shi Guwen was born in the 28th year of the First Emperor (2 19 BC) to the 34th year of the First Emperor (2 13 BC), and it is more likely that "Shandong Confucian scholars will discuss carving stones to praise Qin De".
Shi Guwen is a precious material for studying seal cutting. Wu Changshuo, a modern calligrapher, has made great achievements in writing stone drums, which are widely circulated in printed form and can be used as a reference for learning.
Shi Guwen's font inherited the bronze inscriptions of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the seal script of Qin Dynasty. From the calligraphy point of view, Shi Guwen inherited the tortoise from Qin Gong (bronze ware in the mid-Spring and Autumn Period, with an inscription covering ten lines and five elements, with the word 12 1. His book is the predecessor of Shigu and Qin Zhuan, and its writing is generous. Every pen that is folded horizontally and vertically is contained in the circle, and the pen is drawn vertically at the turning point and gradually extended downward.
Its potential is rough and clear, and it does have the powerful hegemonic momentum of the Qin Dynasty. However, it tends to be square and wide, and the head and tail of the pen are Tibetan fronts, which are round and muddy, with a long knot and moderate symmetry. The ancient Mao Xiongxiu is the crown of ancient and modern times.
Shi Guwen is a master of seal script and the pioneer of Xiao seal script, which occupies an important position in the history of calligraphy. It is a transitional font that evolved from Da Zhuan to Xiao Zhuan, and has not yet been finalized. Shi Guwen was regarded as an important model of learning seal script by calligraphers of past dynasties, and was praised as "the first rule of calligraphers".
Shi Guwen's influence on calligraphy reached its peak in the Qing Dynasty, such as the famous seal writers Yang Yisun and Wu Changshuo, who formed their own style mainly thanks to Shi Guwen. The most famous rubbings in Shi Guwen are those of Pioneer, Zhongquan and Hou Li in the Northern Song Dynasty.
