Running Script Calligraphy, also known as Xing Shu, is a dynamic and fluid form of Chinese calligraphy that bridges the gap between the more rigid Regular Script (Kai Shu) and the highly cursive Grass Script (Cao Shu). This style is characterized by its semi-cursive nature, allowing for greater expressive freedom while maintaining legibility. One of the notable practitioners of Running Script Calligraphy is Ni Yuanlu (1593–1644), a distinguished calligrapher, painter, and official during the late Ming Dynasty.
