Chu Suiliang is a famous calligrapher in history. He was born in the Chu family of Henan Province. He was erudite and talented. In his later years, he wrote "Wen Huang's Lament" in regular script, which was created in the 23rd year of Zhenguan (649). Mi Youren, son of Mi Fu in the Song Dynasty, believed that this work was Chu Suiliang's masterpiece. Scholars in the past dynasties mostly believe that it is an ancient work by Mi Fu Lin in the Song Dynasty based on its brushwork and composition. There is an engraved version of "Emperor Wen's Book of Sorrows" handed down to the world. This version is a double-hook and ink-filled version, which is really rare.
