Features: The New "Complete Collection of Chinese Calligraphy" by Li Shuxiang and Ma Yifu, which has garnered significant attention from the academic and art communities, is now published by Rongbaozhai. This book took eight years to complete and was jointly edited by Professor Pan Liangzhen of the Chinese Department at Fudan University and young scholar Fang Ailong of Hangzhou Normal University. Both Li Shuxiang and Ma Yifu were great masters in modern cultural history, with outstanding achievements and contributions, though their primary contributions were not in calligraphy. Nevertheless, their calligraphy reached a high level of mastery and has had a profound influence on contemporary calligraphy. This volume includes 112 ink works from different periods and styles of the two masters, analyzing and elaborating on their academic and artistic accomplishments from multiple perspectives. The articles and most of the calligraphy works are published for the first time, with exquisite illustrations that are truly remarkable.
