Calligraphy

Ni Yuanlu

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Calligraphy by Ni Yuanlu shows a beige rectangular piece of paper with black Chinese calligraphy written on it. The calligraphy is written in a vertical column down the center of the paper and two shorter vertical columns on either side. The calligraphy on the left and right sides are mirror images of each other. The calligraphy on the right is larger. There are four small red stamps, two on the bottom and one on each side. The paper sits on a darker beige, almost brown background.
