- Jin Nong </font><font size="-0" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">金农</font><font size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> (1687-1764)<br>Jin Nong is one the "eight eccentrics of Yangzhou" who are called eccentric because of their deviation from the official <br>
- standards in painting and calligraphy of their day. (Huang Shen, Zheng Xie, Li Shan, Li Fangying, Wang Shishen, <br>
- Gao Xiang and <a href="http://hua.umf.maine.edu/China/SMpainting/images/BambooHat/BambooHat.html" target="_blank">Luo Pin</a>). They stepped out of bounds in various directions to explore individual interpretations and <br>
- styles. Jin Nong's calligraphy was strongly influenced by stone carved steles and he attempted successfully to transfer <br>
- the strength of the stone carving to his brush. This scroll is not as extreme as his famous "lacquer script." In mature <br>
- lacquer script the horizontal lines are even straighter and stronger while for the verticals he moved toward a <br>
- very light, thin line.<br>
