What is the inscription format of calligraphy couplets?

Calligraphy couplets are generally divided into single paragraph and upper and lower paragraphs.

1. Single paragraph:

If there is a previous paragraph but there is no previous paragraph, it is called a single paragraph, which may or may not include the contents of the previous paragraph. If there are no books to give away, there are only single items.

Single segment has long segment, short segment and difference segment. A long paragraph refers to writing the time, name and place at the source of the text, plus the author's feelings or reasons for creating this work.

2. Two paragraphs:

In the two paragraphs, the object and author of the book are placed above and below respectively, the former is the upper paragraph and the latter is the lower paragraph. The preceding paragraph shall specify the name, source and recipient's name of the work; The next paragraph describes the date, place and author's name of creation.

Extended data:

1, the number of words signed should not be greater than the number of words in the main theme. It should be smaller and more harmonious than the text.

2. The title can't be written in the whole text, and there are many such situations in the national exhibition, which is very inappropriate.

3. The seal shall not be greater than the signature. Big seal, small seal.

Generally speaking, the fonts of inscriptions are "Wen Gu Kuan Narrow" and "Zheng Wen Kuan Narrow". A detailed analysis is: no official seal, no official script, no cursive script; The characters are Oracle Bone Inscriptions and Da Xiaozhuan, and the signatures are in seal script, script and running script; If the text is official script, regular script or Wei Bei, the signature can be regular script or running script; In practice, the most widely used signature font is running script, which is easy to identify and lively.

5. Avoid using your writing habits too much, especially in the early stage of creation. Because our creation depends on a copybook or a calligrapher in many cases, if we write according to our own writing habits, it will definitely not conform to the style of words, let alone coordination. Therefore, signatures should also follow the same writing habits and general styles as texts.
