Like his father, Wang Xianzhi's study of books is not limited to the whole subject, but poor. Therefore, we can create our own unique style on the basis of "gathering the strengths of many families and the beauty of many bodies". Finally, he achieved an artistic position alongside Wang Xizhi. Book traces include Mid-Autumn Post written by Mi Fei in the Song Dynasty.
Wang Xianzhi's book Traces.
Wang Xianzhi's ink remains are rarely preserved, and the quantity is far less than that of Wang Xizhi. Wang Xianzhi's works in the imperial palace "only exist" because Emperor Taizong condescended to provide them instead of buying them. Calligraphy in the early Song Dynasty emphasized "two kings". Song Taizong and Zhao Guangyi attached great importance to calligraphy, bought Mo Bao, a famous ancient emperor, and ordered Wang Shuzhu to copy ten volumes. This is the famous Spring Flower Pavilion.
"Every minister who goes to the second palace will get a gift." Half of the posts are the works of "Two Kings". There are 73 pieces of Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy works, and more than 20 pieces have been verified by later generations as fakes or written by others. During the reign of Xuanhe in the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong was good at Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy, and the collection of Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy in Xuanhe Pu Shu increased to more than 80 pieces.
However, most of these ink books have not been preserved, and there are no more than seven ink books left, and they are all manuscripts. There are still engravings of past dynasties.
