How to inscribe calligraphy works
Calligraphy inscription and postscript, also known as inscription and postscript, is an organic part of the whole work, which plays a role in explaining the theme, clarifying the subject and object, adjusting, balancing and decorating the whole work. 1. Inscription: There are single, double and upper and lower "single paragraphs", which not only explain the source of the text, who wrote the poem and its name, but also mainly write the date of writing and the name of the calligrapher. "Single segment" is also called "lower segment". "Double paragraph" refers to the name of the object given in the first position book on the work, also known as "previous paragraph". Books are given to couplets and other works. The first paragraph is written in the upper right corner of the right couplet and the second paragraph is written in the lower left corner of the left couplet. Other formats are generally written on the left. If it is a two-line question, the first paragraph is written in front and the last paragraph is written at the back; If it is a separate inscription, the previous paragraph is written in the upper part and the next paragraph is in the lower part. Second, attention should be paid to the appellation of appellation, which should conform to identity and seniority. For acquaintances and colleagues, they can generally be called "comrades", "righteousness", "persuasion", "elegance" and "elegance". To avoid vulgarity, don't write official titles and honorary titles. For seniors and elders, we should use "sir", "an old man", "teaching", "correction", "correction" and "elegance". For the younger generation or subordinates, you can use "commemoration", "commemoration" and "elegance". Third, the titles should be arranged in the order of year, month, address and name, and the year can be recorded by AD method at a glance. You can also use heavenly stems and earthly branches's chronology method, namely "Jiazi", "Obu", "Meng Chun" and "Early Summer" to make Athens look antique. Other calligraphers wrote: Great Wall, Lingnan, Jinghua, West Lake, etc. Four, the title font general practice is "today is not more ancient" and "fixed". In other words, the calligraphy style of "descendants" is the main text, and the calligraphy style of "ancestors" is not needed. The traditional practice is: giving priority to big seal script, using official script and cursive script for inscription; With official script and Wei Bei as the main text, running script and cursive script are used; Use regular script for the text and running script for the title. This is the so-called "Wen Gu Kuan Jin" and "Zheng Wen Kuan Goods". 5. Take banners and nave as examples. Start one or two characters below the top line and end one or two characters above the foot line. Leave a place for stamping (printing). Glyph: if you write couplets in big characters, the words in the title are equivalent to a quarter of the main text; Banners, about half. In short, the font size and line length should be properly matched, not out of proportion.
