Features: To provide a rich collection of Chinese couplet calligraphy artwork and illustrations for researchers, creators, and enthusiasts of couplet calligraphy at home and abroad, we spent over two years selecting 500 outstanding works from the history of Chinese couplet calligraphy. This series, titled The Classics of Chinese Couplet Calligraphy, has been compiled and published. The works are organized into five volumes, each focusing on one of the five major script styles: Seal Script, Clerical Script, Regular Script, Running Script, and Cursive Script. Each volume contains 100 selected works, named Seal Script: 100 Couplets, Clerical Script: 100 Couplets, Regular Script: 100 Couplets, Running Script: 100 Couplets, and Cursive Script: 100 Couplets.
The selected couplet calligraphy works in this series are carefully curated, balancing the readability of the literary content with the diversity of the calligraphic art forms. The majority of the works are masterpieces from the Ming and Qing dynasties, with additional selections from modern and contemporary calligraphers, as well as works by elderly calligraphers of this era. The aim is to systematically and comprehensively compile and showcase the finest couplet calligraphy from both ancient and modern masters, offering readers a rich and valuable reference.
