Anyone familiar with calligraphers or calligraphy theorists since the Qing Dynasty knows that Bao Shichen and Kang Youwei were probably more controversial. First of all, their great achievements in calligraphy theory are beyond doubt. Bao Shichen's "Yizhou Shuangyi" and Kang Youwei's "Guangyi Zhou Shuangyi" have been required readings for countless calligraphers, and the most important thing is to carry forward the theory of epigraphy and influence the style of writing in the late Qing Dynasty.
In addition, there are also many calligraphy enthusiasts or professional calligraphers who believe that the calligraphy practice of Bao Shichen and Kang Youwei is seriously disconnected from their highly accomplished calligraphy theory! Is this "those who are good at books are not good at learning, and those who are good at books are not good at books?" ”

Bao Shichen's calligraphy is known for its grass, and he is proposed to be the "first person of the Right Army", compared with Kang Youwei's characters, the calligraphy and painting class represents that he personally prefers Bao's characters a little more. His cursive writing mostly uses flanks, the glyph is oblique, and the personal characteristics are very distinct, perhaps due to the excessive pursuit of technical essentials such as "contrarian flat out" and "ten thousand millimeters of force" in the writing process, coupled with the slow writing, making his works appear weak and loose, and the momentum is insufficient.
Although there is still a lot of difference between the characters of Bao Shichen and Kang Youwei compared to the people of the Jin, Tang, Song and Yuanming, at least they are still calligraphic. However, some book lovers believe that these two people, especially Kang Youwei's characters, simply opened the Pandora's box of calligraphy, so that future generations of deceitful people are sensational under the guise of steleology.
As we all know, there is nothing wrong with the study of epigraphical calligraphy, and the reason why people learn to write on the stele is that people are not in the stele. Bao Shichen's calligraphy generally belongs to the "combination of inscriptions and posts", or it has its own unique features. Next, let's enjoy Bao Shichen's cursive calligraphy together——
<h1>Bao Shichen practiced cursive calligraphy to appreciate</h1>
In his early years, Bao Shichen studied under Deng Shiru and later advocated the Northern Monument, and in his later years, he learned the Second King. He called himself: "Shen Bo's middle-aged book started from Yan and Ou, transferred to Su and Dong, and then vigorously attacked northern Wei, late learned the second king, and became a dead end." He is conceited to be the "first man of the Right Army". Bao Shichen's main historical merit is to advocate epigraphy through the book theory "Yizhou Shuangjie", which has a great influence on the reform of the book style in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, and is still praised by the book community.
Bao Shichen (1775-1855), also known as Shen Bo, was the 29th grandson of Bao Zhengzhi. Jiaqing was a scholar and calligrapher of the Qing Dynasty for 20 years.
