Wen Zhengming's "A Fang Gong Fu" is his 81-year-old work, with exquisite calligraphy and old books. Wen Zhengming was an all-rounder in poetry, literature, calligraphy and painting, and all kinds of laws were exquisite, especially for his calligraphy and calligraphy, which was highly famous at home and abroad at that time. He never quit writing all his life, and when he was nearly 90 years old, he was still tireless, and before he died, he was still writing epitaphs for people.
Wen Zhengming's "A Fang Gong Fu"
▼
Wen Zhengming's achievements in calligraphy were almost unparalleled at the time. Other lines, grass, subordinates, and seals are all worked. However, in his various books, the most valued and the most artistic achievement is Xiao Kai. Sometimes there is a reputation of "small Kai name moving in the sea". His xiaokai is clean and elegant, and he is "deeply impressed by the wisdom of the penmanship". In his Xiao Kai works, "The Biography of Gao Shi" and "Title Zhao Wei Gong Er Ti" are early works, and Zhao Mengfu's shadow is more, his posture is slightly flat, and his pen is relatively sharp.
In the middle of the xiaokai works, there is a shadow of Ouyang Qian, such as the "Tomb Inscription of the Right Suffrage Wu Cemetery", etc., and Jin Jian has a stagnant atmosphere. "Returning to the Word" is a small letter written by Wen Zhengming when he was 82 years old, the characters are only slightly larger than millet, stretch freely, have the tendency to be sloppy and dense, and the pen is home, quite energetic and relaxed, showing superb calligraphy skills. This is also the work of Shi Ou's Xiao Kai, which belongs to a style in Wen Zhengming's Xiao Kai book.
The "Departure from sorrow" was written by Wen Zhengming at the age of 83, which has entered the realm of transformation and has no slackening. "Before and After Chibi Fu" is another style of Wenzheng Ming's calligraphy, which takes more from the calligraphy of the Fa Wang Xi and is a more common style of calligraphy. This kind of work is well-written, elegant and energetic, and meticulous. When he was 88 years old, he wrote "Xiao Kai Zhen Appreciation and Preface", which is still strong and unremitting, which is extremely rare in the history of Chinese calligraphy. Although Wen Zhengming's Xiaokai is slightly different in the early, middle and late stages, it reflects that he has worked Xiaokai all his life.
Wen Zhengming's writings can be roughly divided into two major styles: one is a sketch written with Wang Xizhi's "Sacred Order" as the main writing; the other is a large line written in Huanggu's pen. Wen Zhengming admired Huang Tingjian's writing, and made great efforts in copying and understanding, and finally learned Huang Tingjian's writing style, to the point where it could almost be chaotic.
Before forming these two major styles, he also went through the stage of eclecticism, and he not only searched through the Fa Ti of Wang Xi that he saw as much as possible, but also deeply studied Yan Zhenqing's "Scramble for Seats", "Sacrifice Nephew Manuscript", "Liu Zhong's Envoy Post", "Yingzhou Post", Su Dongpo's "Former Chibi Fu" (and for this reason, he used the Su body to make up for the lack of thirty-six characters in the book), Huang Gu's "Jing Fu Bo Shrine Poem", "Bamboo Branch Words", and the inkblots of Mi Fu, Zhao Mengfu and other writers. Sometimes, like Zhu Yunming, he could write his own poems with the pen of Su, Huang, Mi and others. Of course, he did not stay at this stage, but went in and out, discarded the ancient law, and finally sought his own penmanship that suited his own nature.
