Regular script four everybody's two) Yan Zhenqing.

Yan Zhenqing (709-785) Tang Jingzhao (now Xi, Shaanxi) was born ten thousand years ago, and his ancestral home was Linyi, Tang Langya (now Linyi, Shandong). This word is clear. He is a representative figure of calligraphy innovation in the middle Tang Dynasty, and his regular script is dignified and majestic, with an open momentum. Running script is easy and colorful. His calligraphy is not only influenced by the charm and charm of the previous calligraphy style, but also not bound by the ancient law. It breaks through the conventions of the early Tang Dynasty and is unique, which is called "Yan Ti". Song Ouyang Xiu commented: "Thinking about life is loyal, so calligraphy and painting are strong and independent, and they don't attack the past. They are quite magical, a bit like people. In the Song Dynasty, Zhu listed his calligraphy as a sacred product in "Continued Book Break". " He also commented: "The point is like a falling stone, the painting is like Xia Yun, the hook is like gold, and the bow is like a crossbow. There are images in both vertical and horizontal directions, and there is a low posture. Since the dedication, no one has said it. "

Yan Zhenqing was born a scholar, and became the governor of the plain, which made him famous all over the world. The Anshi Rebellion reached john young, and all counties in Hebei surrendered. Only Yan Zhenqing stuck to Pingyuan City and did his best for the rebel leaders and the Tang Dynasty. Finally, he was ordered by Dezong to surrender to the rebel Li Xilie and was killed. And his life's loyal and tragic deeds have enhanced his position in calligraphy. Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy is like a person, always using the front. Therefore, the so-called eight-part brushwork of Yan Fa has less artistic value, but this brushwork can give full play to men's calmness and fortitude.

After the mid-Tang Dynasty, the old system was in a state of disintegration due to the separatist regime and war. The establishment of a new model of regular script in Yan Zhenqing is the embodiment of the reconstruction of the new order. However, the regular script with strict rules was far from the social background at that time, so after the end of the Tang Dynasty, the development of calligraphy art focused on cursive script, and the classical model finally gave way to the lyrical style of individualism. Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy is called Yan Style, which has its unique style and brushwork. There are many inscriptions left by him, and later calligraphers think that traces of "round pen" can be found in some of his inscriptions, which is different from other calligraphers' "Fang Bi".

Yan Zhenqing is regarded as a pioneer by calligraphers with round pens. The use of square pens by him and Wang Xizhi had a far-reaching influence on later generations. Yan Zhenqing is a great figure in the history of books. His official books are famous for their rich and powerful style, represented by strict temple monuments. As for everyone on the cliff, it is magnificent, especially in the Tang Dynasty. At the highest level, those who show the spirit of rushing far away will push Li's memorial tablet. The grass is strong, beautiful and full of ancient meaning, and the manuscript of offering sacrifices to nephews is the first.

China occupies a special position in the history of calligraphy. Only Yan Zhenqing can shine alongside the great calligrapher Wang Xizhi. His calligraphy features regular script and cursive script. The inscriptions written in regular script are correct, beautiful and powerful. He was born when regular script was popular, which was contrary to Wang Xizhi's typical example and led the new trend of calligraphy. Yan Zhenqing's existing calligraphy works include: Duota Monument, Yan Family Temple Monument, Yan Monument, Ma Gu Xian Tan, and Memorial Manuscripts for Nephews. He and Liu Gongquan, another calligrapher famous for regular script in Tang Dynasty, are called "Yan Liu".

His works are numerous, and it is said that there are 130 kinds handed down. The regular script valued by later generations includes the regular script Twin Towers, Oriental Painting Praise Monument, Magu Fairy Altar, Guo Monument, Monument and so on. These inscriptions are characterized by individuality, positive informality and grandeur, but wherever the strokes are thin horizontally, thick vertically and too empty, we should demand their charm when studying them, and should not simply pursue shape. His running script "Ji Ming's Nephew's Manuscript" is a work of grief and indignation, and it is called the second running script in the world. There are also running scripts such as "Fighting for Seats" and "General Pei's Post".

Multi-Pagoda Monument, full name "Induction Inscription of Multi-Pagoda in Qianfu Temple in Xijing, Datang": regular script, written by Cenxun, inscribed by Xu Hao. The font is symmetrical and plump. It was established in April, 725 (the 11th year of Tianbao of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty). The monument is preserved in the forest of steles in Xi, Shaanxi.
