In China calligraphy occupies a distinguished position in traditional art. Not only as a means of communication, but also as a way of expressing one's inner world in an aesthetic sense. It is said that calligraphy, like a mirror, is a silent reflection of the soul.

The ancient Chinese paid great attention to calligraphy. Children of high officials had to learn and try to write a good hand. Even emperors themselves were good at calligraphy.

Today, although various modern ways have been substituted for the original calligraphy, some people still practice the ancient form untiringly. During the traditional festivals, propitious couplets are always indispensable decorations, each written in a beautiful style.

The following are ten remarkable works by Chinese master calligraphers from the past. Let's feel the astounding beauty of the art.

Top 1: San Xi Bao Tie

San Xi Bao Tie includes Kuai Xue Shi Qing Tie by Wang Xizhi, Zhong Qiu Tie by Wang Xianzhi, and Bo Yuan Tie by Wang Xun.

These three are the earliest authentic works of Chinese calligraphy that have been discovered so far and they are kept respectively in the Palace museums in Beijing and Taipei, ranking at the top of the 10 national treasures. In 1764, Emperor Qianlong stored the three works of calligraphy in San Xi Hall.
