Master Hongyi’s Calligraphy Works

The Long Pavilion, the ancient road to love. A song that has been passed down for a hundred years. Its composer is Li Shutong, a red-clad French poet. He is the first Chinese poet to be interested in western painting. He is a fan of the art of painting. He wrote the first Chinese music book, and the first Chinese newspaper advertisement. His works are very popular. Chinese calligraphy is considered to be the pinnacle of Chinese calligraphy art. At that time, Li Shu was a fan of calligraphy. He was able to write calligraphy, calligraphy, calligraphy, Only those who have never seen his calligraphy can see the uniqueness of the red-clad French poet and his aesthetic characteristics. His works are perfect, and his soul is as pure as the sky. Lu Xun once said that he was lucky to have Li Shu's calligraphy. The painter Feng Zikai and the musician Liu Zhiping are all his disciples. Xia Mianzun, a friend of his, is the one he knows the most. In 1912, Li Shu was admitted to the school in Zhejiang. He worked with Xia Mianzun for 17 years. He once mentioned in his autobiography that he was influenced by Xia Mianzun In 1918, Li Shu gave his works, collections, and books to his friends. What Xia Mianzun got is the tacit understanding of his era. The first work was written by Li Shu in 1912 for Xia Mianzun called Gao Yangtai. The second work was written for Xia Mianzun when he was 50 years old. He has already written the Buddhist language. He is gradually changing. In every period of their exchange, Hongyi will have works for Xia Mianzun. Before becoming a monk, Hongyi was very considerate and generous. As he said, he came to the temple and didn't disappoint the six dynasties. After becoming a monk, this talented man became a Buddhist monk in Nanshan Luzon. After becoming a monk, he didn't do any other art. He only studied calligraphy. What he kept in his museum is the calligraphy of Hongyi which was donated by Xia Hongning after he became a monk. Two years before his death, this work is more vivid in the way of writing. In the way of breath, it is more touching. It is more than quiet. It is this kind of quietness. Around 50 years old, Hongyi's change on calligraphy has been formed to make his calligraphy plain, peaceful and creative. It is full of beauty and full of the heart. This is the last wish of Hongyi to Xia Mianzun. Xia Mianzun didn't understand it at all. After his death, he finally realized that the life of a monk is like a son of a family who is a wise man and a talented artist. He is a serious educator and a master of calligraphy. In this complete collection of calligraphy, there is the life of Hongyi which is full of legendary colors. It is the calm after the chaos and the calm after the old city. It has his talent and cultivation, his Buddha nature and compassion. It also has the friendship between him and Xia Mianzun and the relationship between them. Thank you for watching.
