真鏡庵募縁疏巻行草書紙本33.3x278 上海博物館
Yang Weizhen, a wildly eccentric poet of the Yuan Dynasty, turned a mundane fundraising request for the Zhenjing Nunnery into a masterpiece of calligraphy. His signature running-cursive script dances across the long scroll with a rhythmic, almost musical energy that earned him the nickname 'Iron Flute Daoist.' Rather than a dry formal plea, this piece is a burst of creative spontaneity, showing how even asking for donations could be high art in 14th-century China. Today, this nearly three-meter long scroll rests in the Shanghai Museum, inviting viewers to trace the ink's frantic, beautiful path.
