Introduction to Yan calligraphy:
Yan Zhenqing (709~785) was a calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty. Chen Qing, a native of Jingzhao Wannian (now Xi, Shaanxi), was originally from Linyi (now Linyi, Shandong). The History of Books is also called Yan. Be upright, be upright. The innovator of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty set up a banner for calligraphy in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Yan Zhenqing studied books since childhood and was taught by Zhang Xu. He also studied and developed Cai Yong, Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi and Chu Suiliang, and formed his own unique style. His cursive script is concise and powerful, with ups and downs.
The characteristics of Yan calligraphy:
Yan Zhenqing has opened up a brand-new realm of calligraphy: in terms of characteristics, Yan has a brand-new figure, strict statutes and great momentum. From the aesthetic point of view, beauty of face and beauty of body are dignified, masculine and artificial, and beauty of number is simultaneous, which sets a rule for later generations. From the perspective of the times, the early Tang dynasty inherited the rest of the Jin and Song dynasties, but failed to stand on its own feet. As soon as Yan style appeared, the new style of Tang Doutan casting became one of the distinctive features of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
His regular script is contrary to the calligraphy style of the early Tang Dynasty, featuring brushwork. It is a typical example of perfect combination of calligraphy beauty and personality beauty. His calligraphy style is called "Yan Ti", which is also called "Yan Liu" with Liu Gongquan, and has the reputation of "Yan Gu".
Among them, Guo Bei and Duo Baota Bei are his representative works, but his personal style has not yet formed. He is refined, beautiful and handsome. Yan Bei is the first masterpiece of the old man. At this time, his vigorous and powerful personal style has been formed, and his works in his later years are represented by the more attractive Magu Mountain Xiantan.
