Mongolia zhaotie
This work, also known as Hanlin Post, is 26.8 cm high and 57.4 cm long. It is Liu Gongquan's running script, which is now collected in the Palace Museum. Liu Gongquan has great attainments in regular script, but there are not many running script works circulating. From the post, we can appreciate the creative characteristics of Liu Gongquan's running script.
Zhao Meng Tie was written in 82 1 year, when Liu Gongquan was 44 years old, which was the peak of his calligraphy creation. Because he is young and strong, in this work, Liu Gongquan uses the general running script in one go, which is full of powerful beauty. The font is scattered but not scattered, giving people an ethereal and dynamic realm. In the first post, Liu Gongquan wrote the word Gongquanmeng in big font. The font is huge, and a magnificent feeling arises spontaneously. In writing, Liu Gongquan writes powerfully, so the font written is vigorous and full of beauty. Because this work was written by Liu Gongquan at the age of 44, it can be seen that he is full of energy and writes with charm.
In later fonts, Liu Gongquan's font forms were quite diverse, and he added skills to his writing. Although the fonts vary in size, they are consistent and ups and downs, creating a spectacular momentum. In the last three lines, Liu Gongquan's font changed from large to small, gradually revealing the bone charm of Liu Ti, and the font was written in one go. In "Zhao Meng Tie", Liu Gongquan integrated pulse and strength into it, highlighting the beautiful and slender features of willow bones between the lines.
The tablet of Liu Gongquan's military strategy is the work of his later years. This work was originally named "Monument to the Sage of the Star Patrol Left Shence Army", which was carved by Liu Gongquan in 843 AD.
Ce Shen Military Monument
The tablet of Shence Army was originally placed in the forbidden area of Chang 'an Palace, so it is difficult to copy it. Later, this work was destroyed and the flat fuselage was also damaged. Some people have copied and written rubbings, but rubbings are still rare.
In his later years, Liu Gongquan's body has been shaped, so it can be seen from this work that Liu Gongquan's glyph is calm and restrained. Later generations praised Liu Gongquan's "Monument to the Army of God" as the first wonderful work in his life.
"Shence Army Monument" is a military work praising the emperor. Because the inscription was damaged, Liu Gongquan's masterpiece was not seen. However, some descendants copied and expanded it. It was originally two volumes, but unfortunately the second volume has been lost. The book version of Shence Army Monument was originally collected at home by Jia Sidao in the Southern Song Dynasty, and later the books were classified as imperial academy. The book Shence Army Monument has experienced many twists and turns. It was not until 1965 that the central government bought it back from Hong Kong at a high price and collected it in the National Library. This collected book was copied by people in the Song Dynasty. This is unique in the world, so it is more precious. This book has high research value and appreciation value. We can not only appreciate Liu Gongquan's calligraphy skills, but also learn about his precious literature, which is of great value to historical research.
This work is also Liu Gongquan's regular script work. Liu Gongquan combines the regular script brushwork in the Wei, Jin and early Tang Dynasties, with vigorous and powerful fonts and smooth writing. If you carefully observe the fonts, you will find that each font has different changes and is very dynamic.
