Having Strokes of calligraphy
1 min readToday，anyone who knows a little bit about Chinese culture usually knows about Chinese calligraphy.
This unique art is related to writing，but speaks of much more than simple，even attractive，penmanship.Actually，although we use “calligraphy”to refer to this art of writing，this English word is unable to cover all its connotations.
The evolution of Chinese calligraphy has benefited from two factors:one is the square-shaped pictographic characters，whose beautiful forms provided preliminary conditions for the art of calligraphy；and the other is the writing brush，an important invention in the history of Chinese culture and the basis for calligraphy to germinate and develop.
The writing brush，made from either rabbit，sheep or wolf hair，feels soft，supple，and is elastic and highly ductile.It paved the way for the emergence of the art of calligraphy.
