Calligraphy is an art dating back to the earliest day of history, and widely
practiced throughout China to this day. Although it uses Chinese words as its
vehicle of expression, one does not have to know Chinese to appreciate its
beauty. Because in essence, Calligraphy is an abstract art. While viewing a
Western abstract painting, one does not ask, "What is it?" When viewing
Chinese calligraphy, one need not ask, "What is the Chinese word?"
In this page, we selected single words from the works of many master calligraphers
from the past to illustrate the astounding beauty of the art. Like all art,
it is best to simply look at them for enjoyment. Do not be sidetracked with
questions of theory, technique, etc. Do not worry about "What is it?"
