If nothing else, Wang Xizhi’s originality scores 7 points?
"Lanting Preface" is suspected to be a forgery written by later generations because of its very different running script style from that of the same generation. If it is determined that the Lanting Preface was written by Wang Xizhi, then it is obvious that the calligraphy sage's innovative ability is enough to break the world. This innovation ability is actually on par with Zhao Mengfu? Just kidding.
Wang Xizhi’s versatility only has 8 points?
I'm not sure what you mean by multifaceted. The many aspects I understand are Zhen, Cao, Li, Zhuan and Xing. There is no doubt that cursive script is the best in the world. Zhen script has been rated as the best through the ages by the calligraphers of the Tang Dynasty. This is also a public opinion. There is a slight criticism of cursive script, which is second only to the top grade of Cao Sheng. flow. Even though the seal script, official script, and Bafen script can no longer be seen, from the perspective of the comprehensiveness of regular script, running script, and cursive script, they are still top-notch.
In addition, the comprehensiveness of Wang Xianzhi and Yan Zhenqing has been seriously underestimated. The Kaixingcao of these two gods is top-notch. Zhao Mengfu's comprehensiveness is overestimated. He can indeed write cursive script, seal script and official script, but his influence is negligible. Only regular script and running script can be included in the evaluation.
Apart from Ertian’s misunderstanding of Ouyang Xun, who has read too much, Yan Zhenqing’s popularity has been several notches higher than Ouyang Xun’s from ancient times to the present. There are countless people who imitate Yan Zhenqing. In addition to his son, there are also several famous calligraphers who imitate Ouyang Xun. ? Let’s not talk about pre-Republic of China, let’s talk about modern times. How many works by Ouyang Xun have you seen at the National Exhibition? The Four in Regular Script are said to be four, but the combined spread of Liu Gongquan, Ouyang Xun, and Zhao Mengfu is not higher than that of Yan Zhenqing.
Starting from Qigong, almost all the others are not qualified to participate in the evaluation. It is not a value system at all. If Ouyang Xun counts 10 points and Tian Yingzhang 0.000001 points, if he accidentally adds a 0, the latter will be doubled ten times. What is the comparative significance of this?
The superiority of later generations over the ancients can only be evaluated based on technique alone. It is not absolutely impossible for modern people to surpass Shen Yinmo, Bai Jiao, Kang Youwei, Zheng Banqiao, Bada, Wu Ju, Zhao Zhiqian and even Su Shi and Mi Fu. , beautiful and other messy things.
