Ni Yuanlu (Chinese: 倪元璐; pinyin: Ní Yuánlù; Wade–Giles: Ni Yüan-lu; ca. 1593-1644) was a high-ranking official, calligrapher, and painter during the Ming dynasty of Chinese history.
Ni was born in Shangyu in the Zhejiang province.[1] His courtesy name was "Yuru" (玉汝) and his art name was "Hongbao" (鸿宝). He passed the imperial examination in 1621 as a Jinshi (進士) and was a scholar in the Hanlin Academy.[2] Ni's calligraphy used a semicursive script style with refined strokes. Ni committed suicide by hanging at the end of the Ming Dynasty.[2]
