There is such a development status in the history of Chinese calligraphy, that is, the circular parabolic structure, and the peak will be lower and lower, from the Two Han Dynasties to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, from the Sui and Tang Dynasties to the Song and Yuan Dynasties, from the Ming and Qing Dynasties to the contemporary, the masters of each era are difficult to compare with the previous generation.
The reasons for this are manifold:
The first is the change in the concept of learning books, the Jin people learned the two Han, the Sui and Tang dynasties learned Wei Jin, the Song people learned the Tang people, the Yuan people learned the Song people, and the famous masters of the former dynasty were like a big mountain, standing in front of the scholars of that era, which was difficult to overcome.
Rarely in Shu Xingkai calligraphy "Ma Zhengjun Translucent Ancient Mirror Song"
Just like Zhao Ziang studied Song Gaozong in his early years, almost reaching a state of obsession, this era rarely suggested that Zhao Ziang go deep into Wei and Jin and take the Fa from the Right Army, and from then on, Zhao Ziang's calligraphy changed.
The second is the decline of penmanship, which Zhang Yanyuan talked about in the "Essential Records of the Book of Law", from Cai Yong of the Eastern Han Dynasty, to Cai Wenji, Zhong Xuan, Lady Wei, Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi, and Wang Xianzhi, until Wang Shengqian, Zhiyong, and Yu Shinan were basically cut off by the Five Dynasties period.
Later generations, because they did not know much about brushwork, were also the reasons for the gradual decline of their calligraphy.
Today, we talk about one of the most remarkable people in the Yuan Dynasty, who completely "ate" the Tang Method and wrote it to a supreme realm, and in terms of calligraphy, although his influence was not as good as Zhao Ziang's, his strength was still superior.
This point is also admitted by Zhao Ziang himself, after the death of Xian Yushu, Zhao Ziang once said a paragraph:
Bo Ji is too far away, trying to chase it and can't reach it, Bo Ji has been completed, the world is called the Book of Servants, the so-called Buddha is called Zun'er.
Bo Ji is Xian Yu Shu, Zhao Zi Ang is 8 years older than Xian Yu Shu, but it is a pity that Xian Yu died early in the shu. Rare in the beauty of shu xingkai, 800 years of called the first, this word even Zhao Mengfu can not compare!
Xian Yushu is a northerner, his grandfather once became a high-ranking official, his father was a grain transporter, so the young Xian Yushu often ran around the country, he had the chivalrous spirit of the northerners, and he was handsome, with a beautiful hair, known as "Hair Gong"!
A poem exaggerates:
The face is full of river shuo greatness, every wine is drunk, and the poetry is written in a strange way.
He is such a heroic person, he was under the influence of his family at an early age, indulged in calligraphy, the reason why his calligraphy is higher than his peers is his method, his calligraphy directly takes jin and Tang as the portal, and his life is always immersed in the law books of jin and Tang, all the words we see today, round and thick, and the penmanship is exquisite, quaint and simple, which is where Zhao Ziang can't compare with him.
There is a fine piece of calligraphy in Xianyushu, called "Ma Zhengjun Transmission Ancient Mirror Song", this work seems to be unremarkable, but it is all the pen used by the ancients, in terms of structure, it is really done, "the big characters are difficult to be dense and seamless, and the small characters are difficult to be wide and more than enough" Realm. This word can be called the most beautiful line of the Yuan Dynasty, it is really beautiful, in Baidu Encyclopedia, he and Zhao Ziang are called "calligraphy giants".
And this work, completely up to the Su Shi mentioned the masterpiece of calligraphy, contemporary people study the works of Dakai, I often do not know how to start, this work can give you a good inspiration.
Xian Yu Shu this "Ma Zhengjun Translucent Ancient Mirror Song", the pen is Tang law, in the treatment of glyphs, and beyond the Tang Dynasty's knotting skills, is an excellent model for posterity to practice large character calligraphy, and this work in the glyph gesture back and forth quite dynamic, in the overall weather, high ancient and mellow, is rare in the shu ping sheng calligraphy of the supreme realm.
This work is also a representative work of the Yuan Dynasty Kaishu, which has been called the first for 800 years, the Ming and Qing dynasties, and almost no one can stand out from the right.
Xian Yushu's "Ma Zhengjun Translucent Ancient Mirror Song" is now hidden in the National Palace Museum in Taipei.
