There were many versions of the Preface to the Orchid Pavilion, including Wang Xizhi's original work, Feng Chengsu's copy, Zhao Mengfu's copy, etc. Wang Xizhi's Preface to the Orchid Pavilion was regarded as a model for running script by later generations. Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, once ordered Chu Suiliang, Ouyang Xun, Feng Chengsu and other calligraphers to copy several copies and give them to his subjects. In addition, Feng Chengsu and Zhao Mengfu also had their own copies. For beginners, they could choose Feng Chengsu's copy to practice. In addition, there were some copybooks and practice methods for reference, such as practice magnified version, using color printing version, tracing red copybooks, etc. In short, the selection of the Preface to the Orchid Pavilion calligraphy copybook should be decided according to personal preferences and learning needs.
As someone who loves reading novels, I don't have the ability to get the latest winner list of the novel competition in real time. I suggest you check the relevant websites or social media for the most accurate information.
I recommend the book,'Dawn of Mohism' to you! The main character, Qin Mo, traveled to the Song Dynasty and became a censor. He was proficient in poetry and calligraphy. He compared calligraphy with Emperor Zhao Gou, saved the culture of the Song Dynasty, and became a master of his generation. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
