The framed style of the album is the most suitable for appreciation, just like a photo album. It is generally not large, such as this album of "Qing Ren Yi Zhong Kui Small Collection", which is the size of an 8-page magazine.

There are generally three types of albums. One is a horizontal painting center, framed into an up-and-down fold, the other is a vertical painting center, framed into a left and right fold, and another is similar to a through-fold, the painting center is connected into a whole, and after being opened, it is like a long scroll.

This "Qing Ren Yi Zhong Kui Picture Collection" is a vertical painting heart, turned left and right, this style is also called "butterfly style".

The hearts of the album are often even, for example, this one is twelve. The "outer skin" of the album, in addition to this brocade one, is also made of wood, such as nanmu.

Wu Duo finished reading them one by one, and some of these twelve Zhong Kui pictures had Ren Bonian's inscription and seal, and some did not, only paintings, exactly half and half, six pieces each.

It is not easy to collect such twelve Zhong Kui pictures of similar size, and they are all the handwriting of Ren Bonian, if the frames are genuine, their value must be greater than a single multiplied by 12.

Wu Duo seized the time to listen, and the result surprised him.

Among the twelve, six of them bear the inscription of Ren Bonian and the seal of the painting, all of which are genuine, while the other six, although they are imitations, are all by one person!

The time of the imitation was only thirty years ago!

The most important thing is that he also heard the name of this person, and he still knows it!

And alive.

It was Jin Shengzhen, who was also mentioned yesterday.

The framed album was around that time. Moreover, the small characters on the inscription are actually also inscribed by Jin Shengzhen! It's just that the money is not settled, just like framing.

Knowing this, Wu Duo carefully checked and compared again, and found that the six Zhong Kui pictures imitated by Jin Shengzhen were basically based on Ren Bonian's six works, and the brushwork was imitated very well, and even the expression and clothing were very similar.

It's just that the theme is slightly different, such as Zhong Kui's sword painting by Ren Bonian, and Jin Shengzhen's painting of Zhong Kui killing the fox.

Jin Shengzhen also plays this trick? Is it true or false?

Thirty years ago, Jin Shengzhen was in his forties and had already made a name for himself in the art world.

"What's wrong?" Hu Yunde couldn't help but ask on the side when he saw Wu Duo's expression different.

"Uncle De, this album has at least six paintings with inscription seals, and it shouldn't have run away. Wu regained God's answer.

Hu Yunde nodded, "I'm also not sure about the other six." However, now the two of us can eat six together. ”

With that, Hu Yunde removed the price tag pinned to the album.

The price on this price tag is not low, it is 3.6 million.

However, even if it is such a small size, a fine picture of Zhong Kui by Ren Bonian should be worth more than 500,000 yuan, and if it is calculated according to 500,000 yuan, even if it is only counted according to six authentic works, it will be 563 million.

If you collect six albums of the same size and size, you can't just multiply the price of a single album by the number of sheets, but at least double the value. That is, there should be a price of more than six million.

So, three million .6 million, that's definitely worth starting.

In fact, with Jin Shengzhen's current fame, his imitation of Ren Bonian's works can also be worth a lot of money. However, it depends on whether he admits it or not, after all, it is not paid.

Wu Duo thought again, this album is a bit strange, maybe Jin Shengzhen was not trying to deceive people at that time, and there was another hidden secret?

Regarding the six imitation paintings of Jin Shengzhen, this is not the place to talk about it, and now is not the time to say it, Wu Duo didn't think about how to say it to Hu Yunde, so he didn't mention it for the time being.

After taking the price tag in his hand and taking the album to the "service desk" on the side of the door, Hu Yunde said to Wu Duo, "Look at it separately, and meet at any time if you like it." ”

Wu Duo nodded, and the two separated.

When Wu Duo passed by Dong Qichang's "Jiangnan Autumn Field Map" again, he found that someone was taking down the price tag.

The man was not very old, about forty years old, in a suit and leather shoes, and when he took off the price tag with his left hand, a Patek Philippe platinum classical watch was exposed on his wrist.

At this time, there were still some onlookers, and their different expressions were also very interesting, some frowned slightly, some seemed to be disdainful, some seemed to be choked, and some showed regret.

Wu Duo smiled indifferently and continued to look down next to each other.

In front of a small vertical scroll, Wu Duo and Liang Qiming met again, to be precise, Liang Qiming and Liang Danqing, father and daughter, stood in front of this picture together.

This small vertical scroll is about a meter high and less than a foot wide, and is colored on paper.

This is a figure painting. The painting is of a delicate woman in ancient costume, standing alone and with a sad face. One hand naturally hangs down, and the other hand holds a small fan, the hand is weak, and the small fan seems to be ready to take off at any time.

On the wet ground, there were a few fallen flowers scattered around. There are also low-flying swallows in the sky, fluttering leaves.

In the upper left corner of the painting, there are two words inscribed: the falling flowers are independent, and the swifts are flying.

Payment: January of the second year, Beihong.

There are two sides of the seal, one side is "Xu" and the other side is "Beihong".

"I've seen similar lots, and it's also the theme of 'Falling Flowers Independent', but that one is on silk and this one is on paper, and the content is slightly different. Liang Qiming opened his mouth to Liang Danqing, and at the same time saw Wu Duo, "Mr. Xiao Wu is also interested in this painting? ”

"When I passed by, I didn't study Mr. Beihong's works, and I saw a few galloping horses in the album. Wu Duo responded with a smile.

"Don't be modest. Liang Qiming waved his hand, "Mr. Beihong's paintings are indeed the most famous for horses, and they always give people a sense of strength, this kind of delicate and warm and slightly sad paintings are indeed rare, but they are not nothing." ”

"The second year of the third year, which should be 1943, may have something to do with the general environment. Wu Duo nodded.

"Mr. Xiao Wu thinks it's genuine?"

"How can I judge the truth of anything? Just answer Mr. Liang's words. What is that, you look, I'll turn around. After Wu Duo said hello, he walked away.

It's not that he doesn't want to appraise it, it's that the Liang family is in front of him, and it's a little inconvenient for him to get started, and seeing that they seem to want to study it, it's better to go back and talk about it.

The price tag for this painting is not low, as high as a large integer, ten million. Although Mr. Beihong's works are more than 100 million, in this kind of trading place, you still have to weigh it carefully.

The most important point is that Liang Qiming said that the similar silk painting 'Falling Flowers and People Independence', Wu Duo also knows, because it has been auctioned more than once over the years, and has been auctioned at a high price many times, so this one feels like it is imitating that one.

So there aren't many people looking at it.

However, judging from the two "exchanges", Wu Duo is also convinced that Liang Qiming is indeed a master in calligraphy and painting. Because he paid attention to Dong Qichang and Xu Beihong first, Hu Yunde had the opportunity to win Ren Bonian's album; I don't know what insights he will have after reading it.
