The characters in Sui and Tang Dynasties are vigorous and beautiful. What font was used in the Sui and Tang Dynasties?

When it comes to fonts in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, we have to mention the Sui and Tang Dynasties from 58 1 to 907, in which 37 years from 58 1 to 6 18 were the Sui Dynasty and 289 years from 6 18 to 907 were the Tang Dynasty. Sui and Tang Dynasties, collectively known as Sui and Tang Dynasties, were known by the world in 326 years.

Of course, first of all, it should be emphasized that Simplified Chinese, which is widely used now, was introduced in the mid-1950s and is mainly used in Chinese mainland and overseas Chinese communities. Therefore, in the previous periods, traditional Chinese characters were basically used instead of simplified Chinese characters, and regular script was widely used in the five fonts of calligraphy in Sui and Tang Dynasties, so we can know that the fonts used in Sui and Tang Dynasties were traditional regular script.

However, regular script evolved from official script, and the calligraphy in Sui Dynasty inherited the integrity of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, so it had a smart and powerful font that was seen in later generations. In this regard, Mr. Sha Menghai, known as the master of the 20th century, even divided it into four categories, which will be discussed in detail later. Calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty not only inherited the essence of Sui Dynasty fonts, but also standardized and matured them, so that famous artists came forth in large numbers at this time, among which I think Yan Zhenqing is the most famous.

Of course, students who have studied calligraphy must know that there is a famous saying in calligraphy: "To learn a book, you must start with a letter, and to write a word, you must start with a big character." Chinese characters are based on Yan, Chinese characters are based on Europe, Chinese characters are familiar to everyone, and then they are gathered into small characters, which is the law. "It can be seen that it is appropriate for this beginner to learn Chinese characters, and the copying mode of Chinese characters is mostly Tang Dynasty calligraphy, especially the regular script of Ou Yangxun, Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang in the early Tang Dynasty.

It can be seen that it inherited the vigorous fonts of the Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Sui Dynasty, and laid a good foundation for the vigorous and neat fonts of the Tang Dynasty, so that we can still see such simple calligraphy works now.
