General format of quatrains in hard-pen calligraphy works

1 Whether it is an ancient poem or not, if it is written vertically, there is no need to write the title, author and dynasty, which mainly affects the appearance.

If you really want to write, you can start from a position below the text 1 to two words. The specific location depends on the situation (the right location, visual balance is enough), and the height below the text is appropriate. Another way is to write down the dynasty, author and title at the end, with a slightly smaller number of words.

This is not just the name of a book. In fact, if it is written vertically, all punctuation marks are unnecessary. There are two reasons: (1) The ancients didn't use punctuation, but all punctuation was added by modern people; ⑵ If punctuation marks are added, from the calligraphy point of view, it will affect the qi when writing, and the work has bad breath. Horizontal writing is adopted by modern people. Punctuation is another matter.

After the poem is finished, there are still spaces below. Write it at once, and don't start a new line, otherwise the composition will be ugly. When writing, don't consider the poem itself, but the whole composition.
