Is Wang Xizhi the best calligrapher?

At that time, Wang Xizhi's calligraphy should be better. Why not say it's the best? It is because there are so many calligraphers in Wei and Jin Dynasties that it is difficult to distinguish them. Wang is just a representative, of course, his handwriting is really good, which has contributed to the improvement of the running script system.

However, contemporary people can't catch up with Wang Xizhi anyway, let alone surpass him. Needless to say, Wang Xizhi was a third-rate master in the Qing Dynasty, which made modern people unattainable. Of course, this is not to belittle modern people. This is a realistic trend. The ancient calligraphy was first and foremost a need of life. Copying documents, exams and homework all use calligraphy. This is a big environment. Ancient people wrote calligraphy not to be famous, not to make money or anything, but to cultivate self-cultivation.
