(1) Yan style was produced in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, European style in the early Tang Dynasty and Liu style in the late Tang Dynasty. The economic base determines the superstructure. When the economy is good, the culture is high. Take Europe and Africa for example. Europe's economic development is better than Africa's, and its culture and art are correspondingly higher than Africa's, such as Beethoven (music), Rodin (sculpture) and Leonardo da Vinci (painting) ... and Africa is very rare. Therefore, the cultural accumulation of Emperor Yan is relatively heavy.
(2) Style is mainly a center. The core of painting is the central strokes, such as leakage marks, cone painting sand and Yin Yinni, which were put forward by Yan Zhenqing and Zhang Xu when they talked.
(3) From the perspective of the development of art, the number of facial inscriptions that can be seen today has changed greatly. 90% of the European Huangfu birthday tablet is a palace; There is little or no change in the tablet and mysterious pagoda of Liu Ti's Shence Army.
(4) From Kai to Shun Road, Yan has the second running script in the world, offering a manuscript to his nephew.
(5) In his later years, Yan changed regular script to seal script, taking Magu's post "the word' nei' turns right" as an example. This is what we often say: "seal script is integrated into regular script", "Yan has the meaning of seal script", and the common people say "short turn to shoulder, long turn to shoulder", which is one of the reasons why some scholars put forward that Magu post is the highest realm of Yan style, and it is also one of the signs that Yan style is different from other regular scripts.
(6) Yan style is suitable for writing big characters. Take "diligence" as an example and use the word "treasure".
Horizontal thin vertical thick, left light right heavy, consistent with the projection. Therefore, the concave characters on the tablet computer give people a visual relief and a strong three-dimensional sense.
(7) In terms of calligraphy character, Yan is loyal and honest. This is the standard of national ethics, and no one wants to talk about Qin Gui's words. This is an example.
(8) Yan Yi is a beginner and difficult to learn;
Europe is difficult to learn, but easy to learn.
There are more people studying Yan in China than in Europe, and few people study it like a marathon. There are countless people who study Europe and become calligraphers and national level. As you can see from the internet, every model is European, or nine out of ten models, and one model may be Wei or other styles, which shows that it is very difficult to face. Although there are many European styles, the representative figures of Yan, such as Qian Nanyuan, Tang Dynasty, etc., are still influential in modern times.
If the internal strength of a book is not supported by regular script, it is that a genius and a liar perform on the same stage. There is no right or wrong, only victory or defeat.
Calligraphy innovation in the true sense is the birth of another new tradition, not a flash in the pan like a lantern.
