The epitaph of Liu Huaimin in the Qing and Southern Dynasties

[The epitaph of Liu Huaimin in the Southern Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty]

The epitaph of Liu Huaimin, carved in the eighth year of the Ming Dynasty of the Song Dynasty (464), is printed in ink and folded in whole paper. 53 cm vertically and 59 cm horizontally. Mr. Ma Heng donated gifts
The original title of this epitaph is “The epitaph of Liu Fujun, the head of the town of Hou Dongyang, the governor of Li Township, the two prefectures of Qi Beihai, the former General Jianwei of the Song Dynasty”, which was engraved in the eighth year of the Ming Dynasty (464) of the Southern Dynasty. Unearthed in Yidu, Shandong in the late Qing Dynasty, it was purchased by Wang Yirong in the 14th year of Guangxu’s reign (1888), and later returned to Duanfang and Cao Jianting in Tianjin. This stone has been lost. Because the stone inscription documents of the Liu and Song Dynasties are rare, and the regular script of this book is also famous for its simplicity and simplicity, and its proximity to the “Cuan Baozi Stele” and “Songgao Lingmiao Stele”, the rubbings are of great importance to the world
There is Mr. Ma Heng’s signature on the cover. A page of Ma Heng’s postscript is attached. The content of the postscript is the error of the “biography of Liu Shanming (son of Huaimin)” in the book of the Southern Qi Dynasty, which is recorded in the record of Liu Huaimin’s death
This book is written in light ink. The first word “Lang” at the end of the line is clear and legible, and the words are plump. Compared with the rubbings circulated after Shi returned to Duanfang, it is much better, so it can be defined as the early expansion of the Qing Dynasty. The seal of the seal is “appropriate for the collection of epigraphy”, “Xu Fu”, “Shizi’s seal for approval”, “all the epigraphy in the Zhai”, “Ma Heng’s seal for approval”, etc.
