Extended information:
Qi Gong once studied a large number of inscriptions on inscriptions. His calligraphy works, whether banners, albums, or screen couplets, can express beautiful rhythm and profound artistic conception, and are known as For enlightenment.
The calligraphy circle commented: It is not only a book by calligraphers, but also a book by scholars and poets. He also had many original ideas about the art of calligraphy itself.
Most people learn calligraphy by starting from writing a nine-square grid or a rice-shaped grid, and place the center of gravity of the characters in the center of the grid. However, Qi Gong discovered that the center of gravity of the characters was not at the center of the traditional rice grid.
But at the four corners not far from the center, it is also calculated that the proportional relationship between them is in line with the so-called golden ratio, which has important guiding significance for learning calligraphy.
