As we all know, the seal calligraphy of the Qing Dynasty can be described as another peak after the Qin and Han Dynasties, and it is also the backbone of the Qing Dynasty's calligraphy that runs rampant in the pavilion style, and it can even be said that it is precisely because of the brilliance of the calligraphy of the stele school that the modern book world is not so embarrassing.
Among the famous calligraphers of the late Qing Dynasty, Deng Shiru, Wu Rangzhi, Zhao Zhiqian, Wu Changshuo, Qian Yong and others are undoubtedly very representative, in addition to being good at calligraphy and painting, they often have both seal engraving and seal seals, many of which are the materials of calligraphy and painting. In addition, the same is true of chu deyi that the class representative wants to share today.
As a epigrapher in the late Qing Dynasty, Chu Deyi's calligraphy and seal carving were also famous. Chu Deyi's seal calligraphy draws on the calligraphy style of his predecessors Deng Shiru, Wu Rangzhi and others, and writes simple and elegant, moist and comfortable, with good flesh and bones. The inflection of his strokes is often dark, round and thick. The knot body is not similar to the side of the Jin and Tang Dynasties, but horizontal and vertical, long and large, imposing, and has the penmanship of the Han people.
Chu Deyi's lishu and seal book works are often not limited to the clumsiness of dot painting, but pay more attention to the expression of charm and emotion, so although his works are mostly written in small print, they are intended to act quickly and quickly, or the force is heavy, the atmosphere is magnificent, or the wave is picky and implicit, thick and thin, which is very worthy of appreciation and learning. Of course, Chu Deyi's line and cursive writing are also very attractive.
Today, compared with the practitioners of the grass and other calligraphy styles, the calligraphy of the seal is much less, in addition, Wei Jin Xiaokai is also very popular. Whether in various levels of calligraphy exhibitions or award-winning works, seal calligraphy seems to be a bit "dim", and it is difficult to say what this means for the contemporary book world...
