About this person

Wu Qiuyan, also known as Wuyan, courtesy name Zixing, art name Zhenbai, Zhufang and Zhusu, using the alternative names Buyi Daoist and Zhenbai Hermit, and with the scholar name Shenghua Fang. In the early Qing dynasty, he avoided using the given name of Confucius (孔丘), so he adopted the name Wu Qiuyan, and he was commonly referred to as Mr. Zhenbai. He was a great master of epigraphy during the Yuan dynasty, proficient in poetry and lyrics, well-versed in music theory, and with a rich collection. He was born in Kongbu, Huabu town, Kaihua, and some sources state that he was from Quzhou in Zhejiang. He lived in Qiantang and excelled particularly in seal carving.
