What is the masterpiece of the great calligrapher Wang Xizhi?

Wang Xizhi (303-36 1), a few words, was originally from Linyi (now Shandong) and later moved to Yin Shan (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang). He was a great calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and was praised by later generations. Wang Xizhi has profound attainments in original works, cursive script and calligraphy, and is praised as a "book saint" by later generations.

Wang Xizhi's greatest achievement is to increase and destroy the ancient law and turn the simple calligraphy style of Han and Wei dynasties into a fine and beautiful calligraphy style.

Zhong You has created a new look from official script to official script, but it still hasn't got rid of the shadow of official script. Wang Xizhi's regular script not only jumped out of the influence of official script, but also opened up a new broad world and rose to a new peak.

Wang Xizhi's representative works: (there is no original trace in the world, but there are block prints and ink outlines to fill in), and regular script: Le Yi Lun and Huang Ting Jing; The cursive "Seventeen Sticks"; Running script: menstruation paste, sunny paste when it snows, funeral paste, preface to Lanting collection, etc.

Among them, Wang Xizhi's Preface to the Lanting Pavilion is highly praised by calligraphers and is called "the best running script in the world".
