Dongfang Shuo
He learned the art of calligraphy from Lady Wei Shuo. He excelled in every script but particularly in semi-cursive script. His representative works include, in chronological order, "Narration on Yue Yi " (), "The Yellow Court Classic" (), "Commentaries on the Portrait of Dongfang Shuo" (), "Admonitions to the Emperor from the Imperial Mentor" (), "Preface to the Collection of Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion" (, also commonly known as "Lantingji Xu"), and "The Statement of Pledge "(告誓文). Unfortunately, none of his original works remains today, and only models of them exist. Samples of Wang's handwriting can also be seen in classical Chinese calligraphy texts such as the "Chunhua Imperial Archive of Calligraphy Exemplars" (淳化閣帖).
