Noun

  1. An [[archaic]] [[style]] of [[Chinese]] [[calligraphy]], [[dominant]] during the [[Han]] [[dynasty]]. Characters are rather wide (in comparison with modern styles), with long, bold{{,}} and deliberate sweeping strokes. Unlike the preceding [[seal script]], it is still easily legible to modern readers, and thus remains in decorative use.
