Copying Mi Fu's Record of Fangyuan Hermitage - Character 4
Dong Qichang, the ultimate art influencer of the Ming Dynasty, shows off his skills here by copying the legendary Song dynasty calligrapher Mi Fu. This isn't just a simple photocopy; it's Dong putting his own elegant, flowing spin on Mi Fu's 'Record of the Fangyuan Hermitage.' Look at those sweeping brushstrokes—they dance across the aged surface with a confident rhythm that shows why Dong was considered a master of calligraphy. He believed in learning from the ancients to find your own voice, and this scroll is a perfect example of that artistic conversation across centuries.
