Calligraphy has experienced the rise of sui and tang dynasties by regularscript, the five dynasties, song, yuan, Ming, the popularity of cursive, came to the developmentof the late Ming dynasty calligraphy into stagnation. In the late Ming dynasty, the calligraphersuch as Fushan, Wangduo, turn to the aesthetic point of view, take the calligraphy into anotherkind of aesthetic realm.The official script in the early Qing dynasty is close to the Han dynasty which is moreage-old rather than Tang dynasty which is following one’s will. In the year after KangXi aged theofficial script’s random and weird got a lot of criticism.
