This one‑of‑a‑kind hand‑brushed calligraphy work is created by contemporary Chinese calligrapher Zhang Xiajian, rendered in bold xingcao (running‑cursive) script on textured handmade xuan rice paper, marked with the artist’s authentic red seal stamp.
This calligraphy reproduces an ancient literary prose excerpt. Original classical text (Traditional Chinese):
子瞻、子由與侃師至此，僧院以路惡見止。不知僕之所歷，有百倍於此者矣。丁丑正月二十日書。張匣劍。
English interpretation:
"Zizhan, Ziyou and Master Kan came to this place.The monastery tried to stop us, warning of rough roads.Little did they know I have traveled paths a hundred times harsher than this.Written on the 20th day of the first lunar month of Ding‑chou year."
Fully framed in A3 size and ready‑to‑hang. It makes a distinguished wall piece for study and office space, and a desirable collectible for enthusiasts of ancient Chinese prose and traditional brush calligraphy.
