China - Yan Zhenqing "Small Character Magu Xianta Ji" He Shaoji Collection Three Volumes Combined Edition #Kuro Version# Suzhou Ancient Bookstore Seal

The Maguxiantanji was written by Yan Zhenqing at the age of 63. It is written in a style that is both regular and broad. There are three types of rubbings in existence: large character, medium character, and small character versions. The large character version is a classic for beginners learning regular script, while the small character version is rare. A complete set of all three is now only available as a single volume. This collection brings together three types of rubbings, formerly owned by He Shaoji, including two types of Tang copies and Song rubbings, known as the Nancheng Edition, which was once in the possession of the He family, as well as Song copies and Song rubbings. Each edition can be cross-referenced, providing a multifaceted verification and consideration for our copying and study.
