It is difficult to accurately summarize Wang Xizhi's calligraphy evaluation. Different people look at Wang Xizhi from different angles. What is Wang Xizhi's name? Book saint? In fact, it's not all because of Li Shimin. Emperor Taizong certainly played a role in adding fuel to the flames, but Wang Xizhi's objective calligraphy level determined his position as a calligrapher.
Furthermore, if characters are expensive because of people (Li Shimin) and the emperor is the son of heaven, wouldn't words be more expensive? But in fact, the handwriting left by the emperor is still not as expensive as Wang Xizhi's. Therefore, expensive words are unreasonable. Wang Xizhi's personal calligraphy level played a decisive role.
Let's talk about calligraphy style. Style is also a new term, which was difficult to say in ancient times? Style? Problems, but also emphasize the characteristics of a certain aspect of calligraphy. It is difficult for you to come up with an accurate word to define him and interpret him. It's hard to do. Because often everyone has no characteristics, and everyone has no style. What is this sentence? This is also rarely mentioned in calligraphy forums now. Real calligraphy has no characteristics, including other aspects, painting and poetry.
Some time ago, I watched Mei Lanfang's singing on the Opera Channel, and one of them talked about Mei Lanfang's characteristics. It is said that Mei Lanfang has no characteristics. Why not? Because he is full of advantages, he is better than others in all aspects. What do you think are his characteristics? The same is true of Wang Xizhi as a book saint. When he was called a saint, it was an absolute cover, which completely integrated the advantages of later calligraphers.
We talked about the saints in Du Fu's poems. What are the characteristics of Du Fu's poems? Of course, if you want to look for it on purpose, you can always find it, but on the whole, it covers the whole metrical poetry circle and stands at the highest point. Just like he wrote Wang Yue: Try to climb to the top of the mountain: it dwarfs all the peaks under our feet. ? What do you think of Mount Tai? You said it was too grand, too big. That is his characteristic. Big? That can't be called a feature. Its characteristic is that it contains all the characteristics of other mountains. You said that Wang Xizhi is a book saint, and he is also a master of books. You should see that others have only learned some of his advantages, and learning some has become a feature. It is difficult for him to measure him with any style characteristics. In this way, some people may say that you are too superstitious about Wang Xizhi. Some people say that Wang Xizhi's ci belongs to the neutral school, which is not strong, neutral and wins with rhyme.
The so-called Jin people respect rhyme, Tang people respect law, and Song people respect meaning. It's a cliche. When we talk about Wang Xizhi, let's think about it. Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is not only elegant but also elegant. He has become a universal law, and all calligraphers in later generations are learning from him. Isn't it true? Isn't his lofty artistic conception desirable? His charm is mellow, is it just rhyming? Therefore, Wang Xizhi is perfect in all aspects, whether it is god, meaning or rhyme. Some people say that he is the beauty of neutralization, so let's agree with him. But what do we know? Neutralization? Neutralization? Just don't get excited, don't have a calendar, the rules of the wind are far away. Is this what Sun said in the book Music? Neutralization? . Actually everything is neutral! You say that one person's handwriting is very passionate and masculine, and another person says that his handwriting is very feminine, belongs to the beautiful school, or is short and fat, and Gu Zhuo is great. In fact, it all boils down to? Dazhong and? .
Neutrality is the greatest. Some people especially emphasize the characteristics of calligraphy, and having a face is actually not good. I tell you, in the Qing Dynasty, there was a master of poetry and calligraphy. His name is Yang Jun's book The Spirit of the Cabin. He said:
? Anyone with a different face will have a small way. The winter heart of the word Banqiao, once in the fence, will eventually disappear, trace for several years, moderate for a hundred years? .
Really weird people, there must be a small way. Like Jin Dongxin (Jin Nong) and Zheng Banqiao, both of them are successful people in poetry, calligraphy and painting, but because of their outstanding characteristics in calligraphy, they are called "small paths" by Yang Jun. What you said has characteristics, which actually reflects their shortcomings and deficiencies. This is a daily - happened thing. When you think your handwriting is particularly beautiful, you lose your strength and Gu Zhuo. On the contrary, when you feel that your handwriting is particularly Gu Zhuo and old-fashioned, you lose your bookishness and perfect elegance. So one feature will always cover up another deficiency, so what is the path and avenue? Mean? . We know that Jin Dongxin and Zheng Banqiao write well, but how many people are studying? Once you enter their fence, you will die.
Way out, no way out. Therefore, the path may take several years, and you may learn it well in a few years. However? Does the golden mean never end in a hundred years? You should learn from Wang Xizhi. What's the difference in this life?
Wang Xizhi belongs to the style of neutralization calligraphy, aiming at neutralization. The doctrine of the mean is the golden road to neither left nor right. To learn calligraphy, we must know Wang Xizhi and learn from him. This point has long been conclusive. Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is excellent.
Zhang Rong, this man is from the Southern Dynasties. The handwriting written by this man was seen by the emperor, saying that he did not have the method of two kings. The man said:? If you don't hate me, there will be no two kings, and if you hate two kings, there will be no ministers. . How conceited! Later, many people quoted it to explain that we should have our own characteristics and face. This cliche is true, but for Zhang Rong, we can see that the law of the two kings is still unimpeded and has been used as the law for generations. Is Zhang Rong's Law Safe? We can say Zhang Rongfa Trail and Erwangfa Street.
Wang Xizhi's ci combines rigidity and softness, and the beauty of rigidity and softness is well combined with softness, just right. Zhang Xu and Huai Su in later generations would be perfect without the comparison of Wang Xizhi's ci. But once compared with Wang Xizhi, I found that they were too strong and fierce, and the beauty of neutralization was a little worse. Looking at Yan Zhenqing from the height of Wang Xizhi, we find that Yan Zhenqing's handwriting is a bit rough. Looking at Ou Yangxun from the height of Wang Xizhi, Ou Yangxun is a bit blunt, especially cursive. From the perspective of Wang Xizhi, Zhao Mengfu, Zhao Mengfu is a little mature, Fang Bi is a little less, and masculinity is a little weak. Therefore, from the perspective of Wang Xizhi, other calligraphers seem to feel some shortcomings. Although they have been ahead for hundreds of years, they still have to face Wang Xizhi in the north.
It is easy to learn Banqiao, but it is not easy to learn from the right army through the ages. The golden mean has no characteristics, so it covers its avenue.
The characteristics of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy The main characteristics of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy are peace and nature, tactful and subtle brushwork, graceful and graceful, and later generations commented: Floating like a cloud, correcting like a dragon? . Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is exquisite and extremely beautiful to watch. In a word, he introduced Chinese writing from practicality to a realm of paying attention to techniques and interests, which marked that calligraphers not only discovered the beauty of calligraphy, but also showed the beauty of calligraphy.
Wang Xizhi's greatest achievement is to change the simple calligraphy style in the Han and Wei Dynasties into exquisite and beautiful calligraphy style, which created a precedent for elegant and beautiful calligraphy. In particular, the running script "Preface to Lanting" is like flowing water, elegant and smart, with delicate bones, beautiful stippling, alternating density and white cloth, which contains extremely rich artistic beauty within the scale. Regardless of horizontal, vertical, point, skimming, hooking, folding and pressing, it can be said that the pen is extremely wonderful. Preface to Lanting has 324 words, and each word has a different posture, turning itself into a circle.
Wang Xizhi was a great calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He changed the simple style of Han and Wei calligraphy, opened up a beautiful and vigorous style after Jin Dynasty, and created a model of writing, running script and cursive script, which was admired by later generations. Copybook for calligraphy's Preface to the Orchid Pavilion is his masterpiece, which is praised by the calligraphy circle. The best running script in the world? For thousands of years, countless learners have been fascinated by it. So Wang Xizhi was revered by later generations? Book saint? . Li Shimin advocated Wang Xizhi's calligraphy style. He personally wrote Biography of Wang Xizhi for the Book of Jin, collected, copied and appreciated Wang Xizhi's original works, and copied several Prefaces to Lanting for ministers. In the history of calligraphy in China, emperors advocated one-person calligraphy with 950,000 respects, and that's all. In the Song Dynasty, Jiang Kui loved Preface to Lanting, studied it every day and often put what he had learned on it. There is a postscript cloud:? I have studied Lanting for more than 20 years, and I have learned a lot by watching it under the light tonight. ? It took more than 20 years to get an introduction, which shows the difficulty of interpretation: 1600 years, countless calligraphers have been tirelessly interpreting and reading, unwilling to go deep into Xi's palace, but in the end they can only get one. Therefore, Preface to Lanting can be said to be a maze created by outstanding calligraphy wisdom.
A brief introduction to Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, Preface to Lanting, was called Preface to Linjiang in the Jin Dynasty, and later generations also called Preface to Xiu, Tie and Preface to Lanting, with 28 lines and 324 words. It is said that on March 3rd, the 9th year of Yonghe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 353), the weather was fine and calm. Facing the beautiful scenery and friends, Wang Xizhi wrote this article on impulse with cocoon paper and moustache pen? Charming, healthy, less beautiful? After Wang Xizhi returned to China, he rewrote the preface dozens of times, which was not as good as the original, so he attached great importance to it himself and handed it over to future generations for collection and use by his seventh son, Sun Zhi. He has no children and no daughters, and he keeps the eloquence of his disciples. Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, loved Wang Xizhi's calligraphy and tried his best to get the Preface to Lanting. Often? Sitting on the edge of the seat watching day and night? . In the tenth year of Zhenguan (AD 636), calligraphers such as Feng Chengsu, Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang were asked to copy ten copies and give them to the recent ministers. After his death, the original works were brought to Zhaoling as funerary objects. So far, we can't see the original work of Preface to Lanting, but only the first-class copy of Tang Dynasty. The most authentic copy of the Tang Dynasty is Feng Chengsu's copy, because the year number of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian is printed before and after the post? Dragon? Half a letter, so it's also called? Ryuben? . Guo Tianci said? The dragon brushwork is elegant, the ink color is brilliant, beautiful and fascinating. .
