The classical and new-form poems composed by Zhao Puchu dated between 1950 and 1964, were compiled into a few books, and deemed as a 'contemporary history recorded by poems'. Written in a steady and neat manner, Zhao's calligraphy features elegant, varied brushwork, and indicates the influence from Mi Fu. Because Zhao was copying poems instead of composing them, the calligraphy conveys a lively and relaxing ease.
