Ding Fuzhi, primarily a bibliophile in the tradition of his distinguished family, painted only occasionally, but works such as these album leaves were appreciated by his contemporaries. While working in Shanghai"s flourishing publishing industry, he designed a typeface adapted from the standard style of the Song master calligrapher Ouyang Xiu (1007–1072) and brought out important editions in this handsome script. His seal-carving style followed that of the Zhe School, with its short rough strokes, and he published several books on the art of seal carving.
