Ma Gongyu
Ma Gongyu, originally named Gongyu, later changed his name to Gongyu and Gongyu. His calligraphy was excellent in all styles: seal script (篆書), clerical script (隸書), regular script (真書), and cursive script (草書). In regular and cursive scripts, he followed the styles of Zhong You and Wang Xizhi, with powerful brushstrokes and a smooth, refined flow. His seal script and clerical script demonstrated even greater skill, and his name spread widely across China, from the Yangtze River to the north. In painting, he excelled in landscape, flowers, and birds and fish.
