¡¡¡¡Sha Menghai Memorial Hall, located at 15
Longyou Road, Hangzhou, is the former residence of this
Chinese leading calligrapher. Its main building is a 2-storied
wood-and-brick villa.
¡¡¡¡The Zhejiang Museum keeps a vast collection of Sha's calligraphic
and epigraphic works presented by his family. His calligraphy
features a combination of the Jin and Tang technique and
the Ming and Wing vigor. It is also an ideal integration
of stone inscriptions and model calligraphy. Based on the
calligraphic tradition, Sha's style is primitive and simple,
and virile and vigorous.
