"Chinese Ancient Calligraphy Treasures" includes the calligraphy masterpieces of the most representative calligraphers from each period, from ancient to modern times. Works of various schools and styles from all eras are included. From emperors, generals, high-ranking officials, and prominent figures to common people, the essence of Chinese calligraphy history is fully presented in this book.
"Chinese Ancient Calligraphy Treasures" is independently compiled into one book according to the script styles: Clerical Script, Regular Script, Running Script, and Cursive Script. The "Preface" of each section not only summarizes the entire process of Chinese calligraphy history but also provides detailed introductions and evaluations of the origins, development, characteristics, and influences of each script style, as well as the main calligraphers and their works. Each piece is accompanied by expert annotations, which introduce and critique the style, school, and influence on later generations, enabling a clear understanding of the essence and essence of each work.
Regular Script, also known as True Script or Orthographic Script, literally means "model" and "formal." However, people always hope to see flowing and dynamic artistic expressions within the upright and rigorous Regular Script. They appreciate the highly skilled craftsmanship and orderly, static beauty of the script while admiring the changing landscapes, soaring artistic charm, and unrestrained spirit.
A calligrapher who does not excel in small Regular Script cannot be considered a true master. Zhang Xu and Jing Su's cursive script is like dragons and phoenixes dancing wildly, but their Regular Script is meticulous stroke by stroke. Learning calligraphy should first focus on structure before liberation, with Regular Script as the foundation. All great calligraphers in history excelled in Regular Script, and appreciating calligraphy should first understand the principles before further appreciating the artistic charm and essence of the works.
