Guo Moruo's calligraphy ranking

In China, there are two brothers in the Forbidden City. They are the National Palace Museum in Taipei and the National Palace Museum in Beijing. Both of them are very big and imposing, so many people like to compare them. Then someone will ask who has a higher level of calligraphy, the Forbidden City in Beijing or the Forbidden City in Taipei? Guo Moruo wrote the Forbidden City in Beijing, and Guo Moruo solemnly wrote the Forbidden City in Taipei. In many people's minds, Guo Moruo's calligraphy is better than solemn calligraphy, so I think the plaque calligraphy of the Forbidden City in Beijing is better.

The words "Forbidden City in Beijing" were hastily written by Guo Moruo without any preparation. At that time, he didn't even have time to find the paper, so he wrote it on the back of the printing paper. At that time, Guo Moruo wrote very easily and casually. It is because of this relaxed and casual attitude that his writing is so perfect. The four words he wrote looked vigorous and powerful, and the relationship between words and the shapes of pen tips and words were well controlled by Guo Moruo.

At the beginning, the Forbidden City in Beijing and the Forbidden City in Taipei were not separated, but only after the later war. However, the calligraphy of the two plaques has its own advantages and disadvantages. Generally speaking, Guo Moruo is a little solemn, which may be related to their writing mentality at that time. Relax your casual mind, and the words written are more casual and look less formal, giving people a relaxed and happy feeling.

If you want to write calligraphy well, it is generally difficult to control it. It is closely related to our mood and state. The words written in each mood are always different. For a group of people, the words written with a relaxed mind are the best, just like Guo Moruo's writing of the Forbidden City in Beijing. It was written in such a state of mind that we were amazed and surprised.
