Who is the representative of Lishu?

According to legend, official script was created by Cheng Miao, a criminal at the end of Qin Dynasty. He collected a wide range of popular writing methods at that time, and sorted out a simpler and more convenient writing method than Xiao Zhuan, which was used to copy prison files, hence the name Lishu. Official script changed from a circle of seal script to a square fold, which appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The appearance of official script is of great significance in the evolution of Chinese characters and the history of calligraphy. Later Cao Zhang and regular script all developed from it. Official script is relative to seal script, and its name originated from the Eastern Han Dynasty. The appearance of official script is another great change of China characters, which brings China's calligraphy art into a new realm, is a turning point in the development history of Chinese characters, and lays the foundation for regular script. Official script is flat, neat and exquisite. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, stippling such as skimming was beautified as upward provocation, with different degrees of severity and artistic beauty of calligraphy. Styles also tend to be diversified, which is of great artistic appreciation value. According to legend, the official script was compiled by Cheng Miao who was not in the prison of Qin Dynasty. By eliminating complexity and simplifying, the font becomes round and square, and the strokes become straight. Change Lian Bi into a broken pen, and change lines into strokes, which makes writing more convenient. Li people are not prisoners, but petty officials, that is, small officials in charge of documents, so they were called in ancient times. Lishu prevailed in Han Dynasty and became the main style of calligraphy. As a start-up Qin Li, seal script has many meanings, and it has been continuously developed and processed. It broke the writing tradition since the Zhou and Qin Dynasties and gradually laid the foundation for regular script. Under the unified thought of ousting a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone, the official script of the Han Dynasty gradually developed into the dominant script, and at the same time, cursive script, regular script and running script were derived, which laid the artistic foundation.

Han Li has the beauty of waves and strokes. The so-called wave means that the left line of the stroke is like a curved wave, and it becomes left in the later regular script; The so-called right stroke is open and looks like a swallow-tailed pen. When writing a long horizontal line, the pen begins to cut into the silkworm head facing the front, with the pen in the middle having a wave pitch and a tail at the end. In this way, in the use of pens, the methods of square, round, hiding and revealing are readily available, and the pen gesture is flying and elegant. Structurally, there is a vertical square of Xiao Zhuan, which first becomes a square and then becomes a horizontal square. Han Li has a powerful, extensive, neat and flexible bearing. The reform of official script to seal script includes two aspects: stroke and structure. The method of official transformation has become square. Turn it into a straight curve. Correct the strokes and disconnect. Save the stroke structure and so on. Among them, it is most important to take the potential horizontally and keep the natural state of writing with a brush. Take the potential energy horizontally, send the pen left and right, and the up and down movement is limited. Finally, the eight-point brushwork of sweeping left and picking right is formed. The softness of the brush makes the strokes of Chinese characters have a thick and thin Fiona Fang. Hidden dew and other changes. And word spacing. Narrow line spacing is also a major feature of its composition.

Han Li is exquisite in silk paintings, lacquerware, portraits and uranium mirrors. In the inscription, it shows its broad momentum and unique charm. There are two main forms of existence in Hanli: stone carving and bamboo slips. Most of the official scripts in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties are regular script. There are many calligraphers in the official script of the Tang Dynasty, such as Xu Hao. Song Yuanming's official script can hardly inspire Han Li's brilliance. Until the Qing dynasty. Han Li recovered. Yu Nong, Deng,, how. Don't achieve anything.

Artistic characteristics of official script: Official script is also called "eight-part essay" and "divided essay". It can be roughly divided into Qin Li, Western Han Guli and Han Li. Qin Li was developed on the basis of simplified seal script, so it kept many traces of seal script. The suffix is random, the radical combination is patchy, and the rhythm is clear, which is refreshing. Han Li mainly refers to the inscriptions in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is a mature official script. At this time, as Wang Peng, a calligrapher in the Qing Dynasty, said, "Li Shu takes Han as the extreme, and each tablet has its own peculiarities, so there is no similarity", which is mainly manifested in the great structural changes, flat and square lines, and the thickness of lines has changed, appearing from round pens. Strokes such as skimming, pressing, folding and dots are formed on the lines. Therefore, it provides a broad space for greatly enriching and improving the artistic expression of calligraphy, and has a great influence on later generations.

Brief introduction of some representative works:

The full name of "Cao Quanbei" is "Han and Yang make Cao Quanbei", and the characters are flat and beautiful. The center stroke hides the head and protects the tail, and the main stroke of each word is thick and stretched. It not only balances the form of words, but also expresses the meaning of books.

The full name of "Zhang Qianbei" is "Fu on Zhang Jun's Table in the Old City of Han Dynasty", which is characterized by its strong stone flavor, refined and restrained style, neat brushwork and little indulgence. At first glance, it gives people a feeling of being clumsy, but at second glance, it is wonderful that "cleverness is reversed by cleverness." "Zhang Qianbei" is a model of the strength school in Han Dynasty, which is based on the square and has strong brushwork.

The full name of "Ode to Shimen" is "Li Si, a captain, Yang Junsong". In Qing Dynasty, Yang Shoujing thought that "his pen is like a wild crane gull, and it is outside the cloud nine". Kang Youwei called it "high muddy" and "verve and grace", which can be seen. Later generations praised this monument many times. Its knots vary in density and size, and it is natural and unrestrained. Flowing, leaving no trace, it is extremely ancient and represents one of Han Li's highest achievements.
