Chu Yun-ming: Poems
Ming Dynasty / handscroll / ink on paper
 |
Chu Yun-ming (1460-1526) wrote calligraphy over a foot large
at the age of five, composed poetry at the age of nine, and read extensively from numerous
books as he grew older. He followed the calligraphy styles of his father-in-law Li Ying-chen
and his grandfather on his mother's side Hsu Yu-chen. He later copied from the works of the
kingdom of Wei and the Chin dynasty, and became a celebrated calligrapher. This work is a
transcription in cursive script of the four verses of the yueh-fu. style of ancient poetry
composed by the Wei poet Ts'ao Chih. The aspect of Chu Yun-ming as a singular genius is shown
vividly in this piece in its uninhibited flavor at his best which is reminiscent of Huai-su's
works.
