1. Know the background: Before appreciating a calligraphy work, it is very important to know the background of the work and the information of the author. This can help you better understand the theme, style and significance of the work. For example, understand the author's life experience, creative style and under what circumstances the work was created. Observe the layout: the layout and structure of the work is another important aspect of appreciating calligraphy works.
2. Good calligraphy works usually have strict layout and structure, and each word has its own position and size. Observing these details can help you better understand the author's creative ideas and skills. Appreciate brushwork: brushwork is one of the most basic elements in calligraphy works, and it is also the place that can best reflect the author's calligraphy skill.
Observing the beginning, movement and closing of each word can make you feel the strength, speed and rhythm of the author's pen. At the same time, we can also pay attention to observe whether there are any special brushwork or symbols in the works, such as traditional Chinese characters and cursive scripts. Analysis content: In addition to observing the layout and brushwork, you can also analyze the content of the work.

Each font has its own unique style and charm. Artistic features of calligraphy: China's calligraphy takes "pen, ink, paper and inkstone" as the tool and "stippling lines" as the basic element.
