Hu Yunde looked very closely.

Wu Duo also got started.

However, even if Wu grabbed it and listened to it, he still couldn't completely determine that it was the old collection of Zeng Guofan!

This is a bit similar to Fan Li's Moyu Xuanwu Seal. However, it is far less special than the Moyu Xuanwu seal - if the year and seal are determined, it can basically be determined in combination with relevant information.

The production and inscription time of this inkstone can be compared with the period when Zeng Guofan was alive. However, after all, it was not engraved by Zeng Guofan himself, and Zeng Guofan did not have this craftsmanship, he was only a user and collector.

What Wu Duo could hear, there was no clear information about "Zeng Guofan's use of the collection".

The most important thing is that Zeng Guofan liked inkstones, and also used and collected many inkstones; when he was alive, there were some "impostor" inkstones; because he was in a high position and had a prominent reputation, his money could be sold at a high price.

Something that is related to a celebrity, but is not made by a celebrity, is not very old, and is very likely to be copied while the celebrity was alive, unless there is evidence of orderly inheritance.

For example, in the past, there was an old Tibetan inkstone of Zeng Guofan that fetched a high price of nearly 3 million, because it was collected by Shen Shiyou, a master of Tibetan inkstones in the late Qing Dynasty, and he also asked Wu Changshuo, a famous gold and stone master, to engrave the inkstone; the situation of the inkstone, the inscription of Zeng Guofan, and the inscription of Wu Changshuo were later recorded in the book "Shen's Inkstone".

This is called orderly inheritance.

After returning to his seat, Chen Yongjun smiled bitterly, "I really can't hold up the inkstone, so I still don't express my opinion." ”

Hu Yunde looked at Wu Duo again.

Wu Duo spoke, "It must be something from the late Qing Dynasty, the best purple end material, and the inscription is also the same period." However, if you are sure of this, you still can't be sure that it is true!"

"This side of the old Tibetan inkstone of Zeng Guofan, when the old man Su Wenshan was alive, Zhang Lao once proposed to buy it, but the old man Su did not cut his love. Now, the deceased has passed away, and Zhang Lao has regained the meaning of collecting. Hu Yunde sighed softly, "However, before coming, Zhang Lao didn't know if it would be auctioned, only that if it was auctioned, he would definitely win it." ”

"In that case, what does it matter if it's true or not?" Chen Yongjun said.

"I still have to make sure that if the inkstone and inscription can be brought to the generation, it means that they have not copied the fake one and sold it. ”

Wu Duo said, "Not necessarily, it's possible that the copy is not filmed here? However, as long as this side is not a copy, it's fine." ”

"Hmm. Hu Yunde nodded.

After the auction began, this inkstone quoted a starting price of 800,000 yuan, but there were very few applicants, and after someone responded to the starting price, Hu Yunde only added one hand, and 810,000 yuan won the auction.

should be ninety-nine, the color head is quite good.

The afternoon auction was a bit of a green opening.

Wu Duo thought to himself, this may also have something to do with the lot, the inkstone is not a popular antique in the first place, it is a small item, and there are relatively few high-priced things. Although it has the gimmick of "Zeng Guofan", the starting price is not low.

At the same time, just like Wu Duo's previous speculation, it cannot be completely determined that it is the old collection of Zeng Guofan. If it is just a Duan Yan in the late Qing Dynasty, thousands of people abound, and if it is not "Zeng Guofan", it will be a calf.

After the auction, Hu Yunde was very happy, "Zhang Lao appreciates Zeng Guofan's rules of conduct, and "Zeng Wenzheng's Public Collection" is also something he often reads. This inkstone, after he saw it, he believed that it was genuine. In fact, how difficult it is to inherit in an orderly manner, and what if you can't find evidence? The key is your own feeling!"

Wu Duo nodded and said secretly in his heart, saying so, but at least there must be a foundation first.

It's not bad for money.

The auction continues.

The next lot made Wu Duo shake his head again and again.

After the inkstone, the calligraphy and painting are on it, and it is a landscape scroll of Qiu Ying, one of the four families of the Ming Dynasty.

As a result, it was a forgery of the Republic of China, a typical "back door fall"!

Suzhou film and back door down, can be regarded as the two major synonyms of Chinese painting and calligraphy forgery.

Suzhou film bar, in fact, there is a certain collection value.

First, the year is okay, roughly from Wanli in the Ming Dynasty to Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty, a group of folk masters in Suzhou are engaged in fake paintings. Looking at it now, it can also be regarded as the so-called ancients imitating the ancients.

Second, the level is relatively high, and there is even no shortage of high-quality products, but there are more failures of counterfeiting the ancients. Originally, in many museums, including the Forbidden City, as well as overseas museums, there were many Suzhou films that were collected as genuine.

And when the back door falls, the years will be short.

During the period of the Republic of China, there were many calligraphy and painting antique shops in the area of Di'anmen. Di'anmen is the back door of the Forbidden City, taking advantage of the geographical advantage, it is claimed to be the calligraphy and painting collected from the Qing Palace, in fact, most of them are imitation.

Although the years are short, they are still quite exquisite, and some of them also got the old silk and old ink flowing out of the Qing Palace, and invited a master to paint. For example, Lang Shining's court paintings, which were very popular at that time, were imitated by Ma Jin, and Tang Yin's landscapes were imitated by Qi Kun.

Imitation of Qiu Ying's landscape of this "back door down", although the final hammer price did not reach the height of Qiu Ying's real works, but relative to the "back door down", it was really profitable.

In the middle of the auction, he is worse than Ma Zhide, he read the name of Qiu Ying wrong. Originally, the auctioneer had said that Qiu (qiú) Ying, but after he won the auction, he said Qiu (chóu) Ying again, which seems to be used to saying it before.

After the "back door fell", what came up was a green jade cong made of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which was bigger than an adult's fist, and there were several golden spots on the green jade.

This is the first unsold auction in today's auction.

The auctioneer was surprised.

Wu Duo didn't need to "listen" when identifying jade materials, and said in his heart that it was better to get a Hetian green jade seed material or Northeast River abrasive green jade to imitate, and get a Qinghai green material, no matter how high the level of old-fashioned is, the texture of this material is not right!

After Qingyucong, the auction is the Tianhuang seal of a dragon button.

It's a shocking thing.

Especially for people who don't know how to do it, it is a bit similar to the feeling of Yuan Qinghua; one says Yuan Qinghua, it seems to be as valuable as "Guiguzi descending the mountain"; one says Tian Huang, that is one or two Tian Huang thousand taels of gold.

In fact, not to mention other origins, only to say that the Tianhuang in the Shoushan stone, the grade gap is also very large; not to mention other colors, only to say the yellow Tianhuang, just different yellowness, what golden yellow, ripe chestnut yellow, loquat yellow, chanterelle yellow and so on are many, and the texture, the difference and level is more complicated.

Among Tianhuang, there are more than 100,000 grams of one gram, and there are also small thousands of grams. If you don't enter the stream, don't mention it.

All in all, this Fangtian yellow seal material is not fake, but the quality is inferior. At the same time, this is a modern imitation, imitating the shape and characteristics of the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

This kind of thing should be for "Ma Zhide", right?
