Zheng Yanxun

CHINA; Northern Song dynasty (960–1127)
With a deep interest in Buddhism, Zheng composed several poems and paintings in honor of monk Wufang, whom he befriended. He was noted for his paintings of bamboo, orchids, stones, pines, and chrysanthemum. Zheng also combined his painting and calligraphy skills together to create unique works of art, many of which feature a mixture of the clerical, running, and regular scripts. His calligraphic style was later known as banqiao script.
