meaning of calligraphy
1. Fair or elegant penmanship.
2. Calligraphy at every point in time is a conscious art, which is distinguished from the studies of epigraphy or palaeography in general. The study of permanent inscriptions engraved in metal or chiselled into stone and the forms of letters used in them is called epigraphy (q. v. ). Epigraphy is a branch of the broader study of ancient handwriting in more general terms, called palaeography. Graffiti inscribed on wall surfaces lie between the two.
3. beautiful handwriting
