From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yu Shinan (Simplified Chinese: 虞世南, Traditional Chinese: 虞世南; pinyin: Yú Shìnán; 558 - 638), is a master of calligraphy in early Tang Dynasty. He was also a paramount official, litterateur and well known confucian scholar in Tang Taizong's era.

He's regarded as one of the four greatest calligraphers in early Tang Dynasty along with Ouyang Xun, Zhu Suiliang (褚遂良) and Xue Ji (薛稷), and one of the most famous ones in Chinese calligraphy history. As an important politician, Tang Taizong had a comment on him saying "Yu Shinan, a man of five absolute merits".
