Chapter 605: President Huang's Test

Previous Chapter

President Huang did not blame, and Hu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. And the audience in the live broadcast room also praised President Huang, if the leaders of the book association all expressed their support for the "ugly words", then the entire organization could not be saved.

Fortunately, it can be salvaged.

"Come, I heard that you are still a connoisseur of treasures, look at this painting. President Huang said to Hu Yang.

Hu Yang noticed that on the desk of Chairman Huang's office, there was a calligraphy.

After getting closer, Hu Yang frowned: "Imitation." ”

"Oh, how so?" asked President Huang.

The character in front of me is a work of Su Shi's calligraphy - "Sky Dark Cloud Post", which does look a little old, not new. Hu Yang immediately understood President Huang's intentions, which was to test his understanding of Su Shi's calligraphy.

Suppose, poplar can't see that this is imitation. Then, in the future, the calligraphy attainments of Su Da Wenhao may not reach the peak.

"Sky Dark Cloud Post", also known as "Songyang Post", is a book, with a total of 36 lines and 307 words. This post has no year, according to the Qing Weng Fanggang test, about in the ten years of Xining (1077) to Yuanyou Ding Mao (1087) in the more than ten years, when Su Dongpo was between 42 and 52 years old.

It should be said that this is the work of Su's calligraphy art in a relatively mature period. Throughout the whole article, the words are dignified and charming, the strokes are round and simple, and the little painting just has the strength of the force. The pen is strong, but it can write at will; Patriarchal tradition, but it can be new from time to time.

Hu Yang knew that "Sky Dark Cloud Post" recorded the story of the official prostitute Zhou Shao. This incident happened during the reign of Song Shenzong, when the minister Su Song went to Hangzhou on a business trip, and Chen Xiang, the governor of Zhou, set up a banquet to entertain him, and the official prostitute Zhou Shao served the banquet. Zhou Shao asked Su Song to help him settle down during the banquet......

After Weng's collection of this post, it caused a debate about whether Jun filled in the book. Because there are a lot of surviving Su book hooks, and the paper of this post is seriously damaged, "there are two and one traces missing", so it is doubtful. However, Weng affirmed that this was an authentic copy, and compared this post with the engraved copy of the "Kuaixuetang Post" one by one, and concluded that the engraved copy of the "Kuaixuetang Post" was based on the copy that Dong Qichang had seen in the record.

Today, it is unknown who collects Su Shi's authentic work "Sky Dark Cloud Post".

"If you analyze it from the perspective of treasure connoisseurship, it's very simple. This paper is not from the Song Dynasty at all, so it cannot be Su Shi's authentic handwriting.

But one thing is certain, the person who copied this work is a master of calligraphy, almost to the point of being fake, and there is more than nine and six parts of the essence of Su Shi's calligraphy, I can't do it. Hu Yang said.

In the past, Populus euphratica talked to everyone about the identification of paper. The paper of each dynasty has its own characteristics, which is an important aspect of the ancient calligraphy and painting.

With books and paintings on paper, it has taken on the mission of cultural dissemination, and it is rare to see paper hidden today in the form of a scholar's play. Most of them are products from the Qing Dynasty onwards.

In ancient times, there was no paper, and the book was made of bamboo and wood, and the Qin period was changed to the official book, and the first silk was used. Bamboo and wood are heavy and expensive, Shilin is bitter, and Cai Lun of the Eastern Han Dynasty began to invent papermaking.

Therefore, the paper should start from the Eastern Han Dynasty.

But in fact, the quality of paper in the Eastern Han Dynasty was very poor, it was not very popular, and there are almost no physical objects left to this day.

During the Three Kingdoms, although the world was chaotic, the paper industry was very progressive. Among them, it is especially easier to make cotton silk and paper in Shu real estate, and everything is according to Cai Lun's method.

To the Jin Dynasty, the paper industry is more progressive, and its most famous is Ziyi Paper. According to the hidden "Class Book", Cai Lun was followed by Zuo Bo, who was good at making paper, and Bo Ziyi, so it was called paper. The paper made by it is very suitable for writing, but what materials are used and what methods are used, the history of books is not reasonable, and it is only to improve Cai Lun's paper.

It is precisely in this way that the literature and art of the Jin Dynasty entered an unprecedented height of development. Celebrities such as scholars like Wang Xizhi were born.

To the paper made in Shu, the Tang Dynasty has been a great achievement, and especially the paper is the most successful.

The progress of paper has made literature and other arts further prosperous, creating Tang poetry, Bai Juyi, Du Fu, Li Bai, Wu Daozi and other poets, poets, saints of painting, etc.

During the Southern Tang Dynasty, Li Houzhu was fond of literature, and he was also very attentive to papermaking, and the famous paper was Huifu paper.

To the Song Dynasty, the progress of paper has reached its peak, the previous name of the paper has not been imitated, and especially the Chengxintang paper is the best, the famous calligraphy and painting of the Song Dynasty use this paper.

......

You can find that the invention and progress of paper have long been the prosperity of culture. Of course, you can't say that all the credit is on paper, but you can't deny its important role in the development of civilization.

The work in front of me is a new paper of the Ming Dynasty, which was also a famous paper at that time.

"What if you analyze the calligraphy itself?"

Hu Yang smiled: "If you consider the calligraphy itself, you can look at these words. ”

"What's the problem?"

Hu Yang thought for a while: "How can I say it! Artistic conception is difficult to express in words. To put it simply, these words are not elegant. ”

"As you know, Su Shi was in his forties and fifties when he created this work. This stage is often the peak of calligraphers, painters, etc.

Su Shi's calligraphy at this time is very smooth and natural, giving people a sense of freedom and ease.

You are looking at this work, especially the words I clicked, which fell on the paper in an unusual manner, and it seemed that I was still a little hesitant to put away the pen. Well, that's very wrong. ”

After listening to Hu Yang's words, President Huang couldn't help but applaud: "Good! Good! Okay! He is worthy of being the successor of Su Shi's calligraphy, and the analysis is in place, and the problems are like this." ”

Then, he told Hu that he had brought it back from Japan at a high price. At first, I didn't expect it to be a fake, but after returning to China, I studied it carefully and found that it was wrong.

When I first got it back, many peers in the calligraphy industry once thought that this was Su Shi's authentic handwriting, which caused a lot of controversy.

And just now, Hu Yang only looked at it for less than a minute, and he actually saw the problem. It can be seen how deep his understanding of Su Shi's calligraphy is.

At this time, President Huang truly recognized Populus euphratica's calligraphy attainments.

It can be said that the words he just said were spread, which was almost equivalent to telling people in the outside world that Hu Yang had the ability to become the heir of Su Shi Xingshu.

If it weren't for President Huang's words, Hu Yang would dare to claim himself, and he would definitely be laughed at and ridiculed for his arrogance.

President Huang rolled up the painting and handed it to Hu Yang: "Xiao Hu, this painting is given to you as a greeting gift, and I hope you will make persistent efforts to carry forward the art of calligraphy." ”

Hu Yang was stunned, not long ago he was still making a fuss here, and now President Huang not only did not blame, but also gave him such a precious ink treasure.

Although this is a copy, the artistic content is also very high, and it is very valuable! Put it at auction for a million!

Tang Zong looked at the scene with a smile.
