Fu Shan, Calligraphy in cursive script
Fu Shan's calligraphy in cursive script exemplifies the expressive brushwork and scholarly aesthetics of late Ming and early Qing China, where the artist's personal character and spiritual cultivation were believed to manifest through his hand. Executed in ink on paper as a hanging scroll, the work demonstrates the fluid, interconnected strokes characteristic of cursive script, a script form that required extensive training and profound understanding of brush technique. Fu Shan, who was both a calligrapher and painter, was renowned for his innovative approach to classical traditions, and his works reflect the intellectual and artistic ferment of his era.
