Peach Blossoms at Dalin Temple — Mi Fu Style Chinese Calligraphy Wall Art | Printable Digital Download

A short Tang lyric for a quiet wall — assembled calligraphy, ready to print.

The Poem

"Peach Blossoms at Dalin Temple" (《大林寺桃花》) by Bai Juyi (白居易).

In the human world, April has already spent its flowers — yet on the mountain temple, peach blossoms have only just opened. Spring was nowhere to find; it had slipped into this place.

In the human world April’s blossoms are spent;
on the mountain temple, peach flowers just begin.
Long I grieved that spring had gone with no trace —
not knowing it had turned into this grove.

The Poet

Bai Juyi (白居易, 772–846) wrote Tang verse that feels plainspoken and clear — moments of weather, travel, and sudden feeling, told without fuss.

The Calligrapher

This print is composed in the manner of Mi Fu (米芾), the Northern Song master known for vivid, tilting brush energy. Characters are gathered from historical models in his style — a 集字 work, not a claim of an original Mi Fu manuscript.

What “Jizi” (集字) Means

Jizi (集字) means composing a new work by gathering characters from a calligrapher’s historical brush models—one character at a time—then arranging them into a poem. The hand is ancient; the page is newly made for the wall. Traditional characters only; no punctuation in the writing.

Colophon: 白居易《大林寺桃花》米芾集字, with a single seal.
