Wen Zhengming's "Orchid Pavilion Preface", an 84-year-old book masterpiece

Wen Zhengming is famous in the history of calligraphy for being good at both styles, especially good at writing and small letters, calligraphy is gentle and beautiful, steady and old, and the law is rigorous and vivid. However, his calligraphy is not a talent, but is practiced, which is a good interpretation of "diligence can make up for clumsiness". Therefore, his calligraphy can be said to be older and older, and the more he writes, the more exquisite he is.

This post is a book written by Wen Zhengming when he was 84 years old, "Preface to the Lanting Pavilion", which is now in the collection of the Freer Museum of Art in the United States. The work is smooth and sharp, the pen is vigorous, the knot body is relaxed, and the whole work is elegant and dignified, and the atmosphere is vivid. Please enjoy.
