Lin Sanzhi

Lin Sanzhi

Lin Sanzhi (November 20, 1898 - December 6, 1989) was born in Jiangpu County, Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province (now Pukou District, Nanjing City). His ancestral home is qikesong village, Wujiang Town, Hexian County, Anhui Province. He is a poet, calligrapher and painter, especially good at cursive.

In 1972, his calligraphy work "friendship Poem between China and Japan" was known as "Lin Sanzhi's first cursive". Zhao Puchu, qigong and so on called poetry, calligraphy and painting "the three wonders of the contemporary era", together with Li Zhimin called "Nanlin Beili", known as "the sage of grass", and Lin Sanzhi's cursive was known as "the style of forest". If we say that in contemporary cursive practice, Lin Sanzhi is the beauty of elegance, Li Zhimin is the beauty of vastness. The two styles are quite different and complement each other in hardness and softness, highlighting the double peak game of "South Lin and North Li".

Lin Sanzhi is a typical example of "the late success of a great instrument". It is precisely because of his late fame that he has studied hard for decades, which nourishes the spirit, rhyme, meaning and interest of his calligraphy and makes it reach an extraordinary high level. His contribution to the cause of modern Chinese Calligraphy is really "great".

Lin Sanzhi's representative works include Xu Yao's poetry on huaisu cursive script, a poem on his own, Li Bai's cursive script song, etc.

On December 6, 1989, Lin Sanzhi died at the age of 92 because of the obstruction of trachea by phlegm.

Since the name of "San Chi Sheng", Huang Gongwang (Zijiu), a great painter in Yuan Dynasty, was called "Da Chi", and Wang Jiu (Sifeng), a "Xiao Si Wang" in Qing Dynasty, was called "Er Chi", so he called himself "San Chi", and he has a vague ambition to succeed.
