"Huaqi Iron Stone" paper book, cursive, 30.7X4302 cm, poem: "Huaqi smoked people want to break Zen, and their mood is actually over middle age. What is poetic thinking in spring? There are eight boats on the beach. " A total of 5 lines and 28 words, now in the National Palace Museum in Taipei. "This poem is exquisite in calligraphy. Every time I see the cursive script, I am not satisfied with it, although there are ways to break the hairpins. None of this book is idle, or it is caused by the lack of poetry "(Angie's" The View of Mo Yuan Hui ").
? The iron stone of Huaqi is natural, profound and profound, with excellent pen and ink. Except for "breaking Zen" and "harmony", the rest are "unique grass" with outstanding characteristics. Composition, layout, structure, and pen and ink are all ingenious inadvertently, which can be described as a situation of "no intention, no thoughts and no rules". On the first line, flowers are small, qi is narrow, people are suitable, desires are convergent, and Zen is broken, which is quite interesting; The two lines of "real" characters use the line method, and the line is sandwiched in the grass, which increases the pen power, but does not lose coordination and harmony, and is more beautiful in stability and solidity. "Guo" took advantage of the situation and took risks. The last stroke was sharp and the meaning was particularly strange. The word "Zhong" is painted vertically for a long time, which makes the layout more varied through the change of lifting and pressing, which is in contrast with the whole work and interesting; Three lines, the first three words and the last four words swing from side to side, showing a wonderful style beauty, and the composition is smart and lively; Four lines, ups and downs are natural, and the lines converge vigorously. The point method is not limited to the molding method, but the changes and combinations of hidden exposure, light and heavy, disconnection and pitching are arbitrary and fascinating. Finally, the lines of the "water boat" are dry, square and cadence, which is even more remarkable.
Huang Tingjian (A.D. 1045- 1 105) was a famous poet and calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty. Word,No. rich man, road flyover in the valley, from Fenning, Hongzhou (now Shuangjing Village, xiushui county, Jiangxi).
