The piece is a first-class copy made in the T'ang dynasty showing the true character
of Wang Hsi-chih, the Immortal Calligrapher. It is also included in the Shih-ch'i-t'ieh,
which can be called the sacred book of the cursive script. The work, which is a letter in
the concise format unique to Wang Hsi-chih, indicates a divine state in the beautiful form
of the cursive script, the singular execution of angular strokes, and its full refinement
and elegance.
