First, the full name of the Huadu Temple Monument is the inscription on the Buddhist Pagoda of the Forever Monk in Huadu Temple. Founded in the five years of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty. Ou Yangxun's book. The pen is thin and powerful, the structure is restrained and slender, and the statutes are rigorous. This monumental work is beyond the reach of future generations, so it is called the extreme principle of model law. Engraved in the fifth year of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty (AD 63 1 year), Li Baiyao wrote an article in regular script in Ou Yangxun, with 35 lines and 33 words each. The original tablet was in Zhong Nanshan Buddhist Temple in Chang 'an (now Xi). The monk thought there was treasure in the tablet, so he smashed it and the original tablet was damaged. During the Northern Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, there were many engravings after the stone was destroyed. The original stone rubbings are only Song rubbings, which are now in Shanghai Library.
Secondly, Ou Yangxun is a famous calligrapher in the history of calligraphy in China, and he is also the crown of the four regular script of "Liu Zhao", which is also one of the calligraphy posts we studied. Tian Yingzhang studied Ou Kai, and many contemporary people became famous for studying Ou Kai. Ou Yangxun was also an outstanding calligrapher in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. His son Ouyang Tong also inherited the mantle of Ou Yangxun, but his calligraphy style was different from his father's, which was the difference between famous calligraphers. Such a calligraphy style is beyond the reach of contemporary calligraphers.
Thirdly, Ou Yangxun's regular script "Huadu Temple Monument" also highlights its precipitous calligraphy style, which is also the key for many people to learn unlike Ou Yangxun or even Huang Ziyuan. So far, Huang Ziyuan wrote the most like, but he didn't write the spirit of Ou Yangxun. Contemporary calligraphers are basically unable to have both form and spirit. The calligraphy is wonderful and the spirit is excellent.
