From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The clerical script (Traditional Chinese: 隷書; Simplified Chinese: 隶书) is an archaic style of Chinese calligraphy which, due to its high legibility to modern readers, is still being used for artistic flavor in a variety of functional applications such as headlines, signboards and advertisements. Highly angular, it developed from the seal script and is the precursor to the regular script that Chinese is usually written in today. A character written in clerical script is often wider than it is high.
