The Six Adornments School (style ? treatise ?) as taught by Qian Tairen (Scholarly name). A rubbing from a stone stele of the original text. The type of text more often made for copying of the calligraphic style than for the content of the text.

That's rubbing stone inscription Yan Zhenqing. The characters are sharp and clear maybe they were rubbed in early time when the stone inscription still in good condition. Other knowledgeable person may have further information for you
