He was also a connoisseur of art. Ynder the Yuan Mongol rulers, he also served as an official. In semi-standard script, Hsien-yu Shu achieved the heroic brush manner of the Chin and T'ang. In cursive script, he studied the style of Huai-su. Chao Meng-fu once praised Hsien-yu's cursive script for its breadth and unlimited potential. The brush force here is strong yet rounded as it turns and dances across the surface. Not a single stroke appears lacking or misplaced. This work features the powerful features of calligraphy practiced in northern China at the time and transcribes three poems by T'ang dynasty (618-907) poets.
