Pan Tianshou (1897 ——1971) is an outstanding painter and calligrapher. His official seal is based on the Three Halls and Zan Xie Dao. The cursive script began in the Jin and Tang Dynasties, and then merged the hazards of Huang Daozhou and Ni. Generally speaking, the book style is bold and unconstrained, "blindly overbearing."

■ Scholar calligrapher

He is also accomplished in music. Among his students, musician Liu Zhiping and painter Feng Zikai are famous.
Li Shutong's writing is naturally divided into two distinct periods, that is, before becoming a monk and after becoming a monk. Influenced by the ethos of the times, Li Shutong naturally learned from Wei Bei at an early age, and repeatedly studied the inscriptions such as Longmen Twenty Products, Zhang Menglong and Xian Baozi. However, Li Shutong's inscription is more artificial and moist than ordinary people, which seems to be mainly based on its wonderful structure. Basically, it has not formed its own face. After Li Shutong became a monk, "all arts are abandoned, and calligraphy alone is not abolished." He promoted Confucian classics with calligraphy and made extensive contacts with Buddhists. However, the early sharp wit and Wei Bei's vigorous and dignified style disappeared, replaced by a flat and solemn, out-of-touch face. In his later years, Li Shutong's calligraphy was mainly based on copying Buddhist scriptures and couplets. The font is long and narrow, the pen is lighter and slower, and the composition space is sparse. It presents a solemn and lofty Buddhist atmosphere.

In his early years, he copied ancient monuments for a long time, was keen on searching for rubbings of inscriptions, and had a high appreciation for the art of calligraphy, which was quaint, heavy and full of popularity. Whether it is carefully written couplets or improvised manuscripts and letters, there are considerable points. At an auction, a page of Lu Xun's manuscript was sold for 40 thousand yuan. Visible its value.
Ma Yifu (1882—— 1962) was born in Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Formerly known as floating. He is a famous scholar who knows many foreign languages and is good at studying Buddhism and Confucianism. After liberation, he served as director of Zhejiang Literature and History Museum. His calligraphy mainly comes from Chu Suiliang, but also blends with other schools. The cursive script has the highest achievement, with the right character, steep nib and bright corners, with a faint literati atmosphere and high style.

A contemporary calligrapher with comprehensive cultural accomplishment in traditional China.

Lu began to learn from Wei Bei, but he didn't stop posting. He took the road of attaching equal importance to inscriptions. He described it as "monument can strengthen bones, post can nourish qi", which can be described as a good scholar. ; On the basis of official script, he integrated the thought of grass and intended to create a new official script style, which was neither official script nor official script. He used both Fiona Fang and pen, and his style was flat, which was called "flat seal" by the ancients.
