What is still hanging in the Palace Museum is the five characters "Palace Museum" written by Mr. Guo Moruo 197 1 year. Mr. Guo Moruo has made great achievements in calligraphy, especially in cursive script. Lao Guo's inscription calligraphy works can still be seen in many places, so his calligraphy also occupies a very important position in the history of modern calligraphy. Although Guo Moruo's calligraphy is as controversial as his personality, I have to admit that the plaque in the Forbidden City is quite beautiful, refined and not rigid. Lao Guo's famous inscriptions also include the well-known "Bank of China". If a friend passes by, you can stop for a minute and take a closer look. Because Guo Moruo is good at running script and cursive script, he is often criticized by others: "How can you hang his inscription in a dignified and dignified place?" The inscriptions on these two plaques also fully show that calligraphy art will be accepted and recognized by the world as long as it is good.
The earliest plaque in the Palace Museum was inscribed by Mr. Li Yuying.
Then, the Forbidden City was opened 197 1 years ago. Was there no plaque before? Of course not. The Forbidden City decided to set up the Palace Museum in 1925, and the plaque was inscribed by Li Yuying at that time. The five characters "Forbidden City" in regular script are majestic and solemn. At that time, there were many masters in calligraphy in the preparatory group, such as Cai Yuanpei, Yu Youren, Xiong Xiling and Wu Jingheng. So, why did Li Yuying have the opportunity to write the plaque of the Forbidden City? It is well known that Li Yuying is one of the four elders of the Kuomintang and the son of Li Hongzao. Cai Yuanpei and Yu Youren were both famous calligraphers at that time, so why did they agree that Li Yuying was the most suitable inscription for the Forbidden City? First of all, we can highlight his important position in the national government at that time. Secondly, his calligraphy was recognized and convinced by Cai Yuanpei, Yu Youren and others.
