But it depends on the specific situation. The collection of Wang is good, but it is a collection of words, so it is not a normal calligraphy mode. Of course, it does not mean that it is not a good calligraphy work.
There is something wrong with the word collection, that is, the gas is not connected. Even though Huairen has tried his best to perfect the text, we can still feel that the spirit between the lines is a bit conflicting, and the size of the words is too strong, which has a slight sense of disobedience in the current text. Then why were the ancients happy to use this post as an introductory post?
Because there was no color printing and copying in ancient times, there were only seal cutting and rubbing, so in this case, it was difficult to popularize ink printing posts on a large scale. Scholars have to settle for the second best and look for a model in seal cutting. The Preface to Ji Wang is the best in seal cutting, so in this case, the ancients always praised the Preface to Ji Wang.
Summarized as follows:
As a modern person, we should try our best to avoid starting with seal cutting when choosing introductory posts, because seal cutting posts still have a strong sense of seal cutting. After studying for a long time, it is easy to sharpen the pen too much, resulting in too many square fonts. However, learning running script is a process that both kings have to learn, so they can settle for the second best and take the next step slightly, such as Zhao Mengfu's Preface to the Collection of Kings.
