Features: The calligraphy, paintings, and gold and stone works by Qing Shan Nong Jin Shi are unique, with particular fame in clerical script. His clerical script draws inspiration from the inscriptions of the Jing and Han dynasties, incorporating the brushwork style of Yi Bingshou, forming a distinctive style and establishing his own school. The brushwork exudes elegance, with strong, concise strokes, well-structured and square formations, with the wave-like tails of strokes not overly extended and the upward flicks of the brush not prominent, stopping when the intention is conveyed. Overall, the works are dignified and steady, graceful and classical, with the essence of gold and stone hidden within the paintings and lines. This book uses the original manuscripts written in the 1930s. The author was at the age of fifty, and his brushwork was lively and expansive, with a clear, subtle, and elegant style, free and unrestrained, yet imbued with ancient charm. The entire piece is meticulous in every stroke, as if it were formed in one breath, strong, upright, and elegant, winning through charm, with very high artistic value.
