Introduction to calligraphy and painting in Ming dynasty

Ming Dynasty is an important stage in the history of China's calligraphy and painting. Calligraphy and painting in this period continued to evolve and develop along the tradition of Song and Yuan Dynasties.

The general trend is that Yuan Sijia's influence still exists in the early stage, imitating the Song Academy in the early stage &; #39; , mainly; After the middle period, the literati painting school represented by Wu Pai returned, inherited the ink painting method of Yuan Dynasty, and occupied the mainstream of painting. The evolution and development of calligraphy and painting art in the whole Ming Dynasty can be roughly divided into three stages: early stage, middle stage and late stage, but they cannot be completely separated, but are alternately related to each other.
