Wu Yixiang's Brush Calligraphy Works

Wang Xizhi is the best calligrapher in history. As we all know, he is known as the "Book Sage", and there are many well-known works spread around the world, such as Preface to Lanting Collection, Sunny Post on the Snow, Seventeen Posts and so on. Especially the Preface to the Lanting Pavilion, which was praised as "the best book in the world" by Emperor Taizong and Li Shimin. But do you know why Wang Xizhi became a book saint? Nothing is without reason.

First of all, personal hobbies and interests are the best teachers, so the first is one of the reasons why they become book saints. When Wang Xizhi was six years old, he found that his father Wang Kuang had collected Cai Yong's On Pen, and he fell in love with calligraphy. While others were still playing, Wang Xizhi had already started practicing calligraphy in the study. Moreover, every time Wang Xizhi finished practicing calligraphy, he would go to the pond in front of the door to wash the inkstone. Over time, the pond in front of the door was washed black by him, and it was called "Mo Chi", which became a much-told story. Wang Mian, a scholar in the Yuan Dynasty, also left a well-known poem: Mo Mei-a tree in the West Wild Goose Lake near my home, with flowers blooming and flowers falling, and faint ink marks. Don't boast about the good color, just let the air be full of dried Kun.

Secondly, the family background, Wang Xizhi's family was a wealthy aristocratic family at that time, "Wang and Ma, * * * the world", that is, the Wang family and the royal Sima family at that time! At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, the Wang family was a big family that could dominate the destiny of the country, especially the Eastern Jin regime was established with the support of his uncles Wang Dao and Xie An. I have never heard of "Wuyi Xiang, Yuxi, Liu Tang", where there are wild flowers on the Suzaku Bridge, and the sunset at Wuyi Xiangkou is oblique (xiá); Swallows under the eaves of Wang Dao and Xie An have now flown into the homes of ordinary people. That's what I said. "So Wang Xizhi has relaxed conditions and environment to practice calligraphy. The Wangs are the best calligraphers in history. Do you know how great they are? The best calligraphy family in history. Do you know how great this is?

Third, family support. At the age of six, Wang Xizhi got Cai Yong's pen theory from his father Wang Kuang, and later his uncle Wang Dao passed it on to him. Visible Wang Dao is risking his life, wearing clothes to the south. After his father died, uncle Wang Xun invited Wei Shuo, a famous calligrapher (the Wei family was a calligraphy family at that time) to teach him calligraphy. Therefore, Wang Xizhi could not be a calligrapher without the support of his family.

Fourth, Wang Xizhi, a famous teacher, began to study calligraphy at the age of seven, studied under Mrs. Wei and his uncle, and came from a calligraphy family. Wang Xizhi's teacher, Wei Shuo, was a talented woman in the Wei family at that time. The book "Broken" says: "The ice of the broken jade pot is like a fragrant tree and a cool breeze." It has the name of "pen drawing" circulated by later generations. Later, I visited the exquisite works of the masters of seal script in Qin and Han dynasties, which were unpretentious. He carefully studied the physical situation, imitated his hands, learned from others' strengths, and melted into one furnace to create a running script of "Nature is natural and God is abundant".
