Chapter 465: Top Qing Dynasty Connoisseur
Ye Mei wanted to know how much such a painting could be worth, after all, a million had been invested. If it was with her ability, she would not be able to earn so much money for ten years.
"Brother Hu, Tang Bohu's paintings should be very valuable, right?" she asked.
After all, a painter who is so famous, just Tang Bohu's name, is it very scary, okay?
Qi Hongye couldn't help but say: "It must be worth a lot! The most expensive painting in China should be Tang Bohu's painting, right? It is said that it was shot for more than 3 billion yuan, I don't forget what it is called." ”
Even Andy took a breath of cool air, more than 3 billion?
Not to mention, Ye Mei was dumbfounded.
Hu Yang shook his head, and saw that there were also people discussing it in the live broadcast room, so he exposed the lie: "On the Internet, the fact that Tang Yin's "Lushan Waterfall View" took 3.6 billion yuan is actually a false rumor, and there is no such thing at all.
In fact, Tang Bohu's most expensive painting is less than 100 million.
And we put it at auction in China, the most expensive painting is Qi Baishi's "Landscape Twelve Screens", a national treasure-level art treasure, which was auctioned for more than 900 million yuan, and also refreshed the record of Chinese painting. ”
Of course, it cannot be said that the most precious painting in China is Qi Baishi's "Twelve Screens of Landscape". For example, "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" is certainly more precious than "Twelve Screens of Landscapes", but how can those cultural relics of the national treasure level be put up for auction? Even if they are exhibited, they have to be careful.
The audience in the live broadcast room was also in an uproar, but as long as you search for Tang Bohu's most expensive painting on the Internet, 3.6 billion "Lushan Waterfall View" will pop up.
"For the time being, in the history of world auctions, the most expensive painting is Leonardo da Vinci's "Salvator Mundi", which sold for 450 million US dollars, and when converted into RMB, it is about 27 or 2.8 billion, and it has not reached 3 billion!
Of course, it's not that I belittle the art of painting in my own country. But internationally, it is true that Western works are still the mainstream. We have to admit this. Hu Yang said to everyone.
It is said that the family of the first collector of the Salvator Mundi sold it for £45, and it is not known if he regrets it now.
Ye Mei also exhaled heavily, Rao is like this, a painting is almost nine hundred million, it is also very terrifying, right? How much money can ordinary people make in their lives? Ten million is not a lot, right? It is still nearly a hundred people who can use their lives to buy a painting together, it is unbelievable.
Hu Yang continued: "As for this painting, it is not famous, I have to ask President Fang and them to see if they can find some information about this painting." However, I am sure that this painting is of the upper middle level among Tang Yin's many works, and it should not be a problem to sell millions. ”
Ye Mei didn't know what to say, in one morning, or in less than a morning, she earned almost ten million, who would reason with this?
There are a lot of people who open factories, and if the scale is smaller, it is estimated that the net profit of a year is not so much.
No wonder, last night Qizi told her that Brother Hu didn't take a million or hundreds of thousands of yuan in his eyes at all, so he didn't bother to pick up tens of thousands of things, and he usually let the people around him pick them up cheaply.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with this. If she had Brother Hu's ability, tens of thousands of yuan might not be able to look down on it.
She admired it very much, how easily did Brother Hu conclude that this was true? I have to say that this kind of vision for discovering treasures is really easy to get rich.
At this time, Brother Hu continued to point: "Have you seen this seal? Liang Qingbiao, this is a very famous collector and connoisseur in the Qing Dynasty. The presence of his seal also provides strong evidence for this work. ”
He told everyone that Liang Qingbiao was one of the most important collectors in the Qing Dynasty. To what extent?
It is said that during his lifetime, he collected more than 600 rare paintings and calligraphy treasures of the national treasure level. For example, Lu Ji's "Pingfu Post" in the Jin Dynasty, Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface" (Zhang Jinjie Nuben), Du Mu's "Zhang Haohao's Poems" in the Tang Dynasty, Yan Zhenqing's "Self-Written Confession" and "Zhushantang Couplet", Su Shi's "Dongting Spring Fu", "Zhongshan Pine Mash Fu", "Return to Speech", Huang Tingjian's "Yin Changsheng Poems" and so on.
Each of these pieces is a treasure that shocks the past and the present today, and all of them are Liang Qingbiao's collection! It can be said that his collection alone is more valuable than the collections of several museums today.
Nowadays, the so-called big collectors in China seem to have collected a lot of things, but the really precious ones are actually just a few pieces, which are already very remarkable.
Everyone listened to it and was deeply shocked, they all knew that there was a big corrupt official in the Qing Dynasty, He Shen, with countless family properties, and even the emperor couldn't help but copy his house, but I didn't expect that there was a Liang Qingbiao who also had many treasures.
Doesn't it say that "the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty"? How did this person manage not to be remembered by others?
"He must be a big official, right?" Ye Mei said with a reassurance.
Hu Yang nodded: "Well, indeed, to achieve the position of the six Shangshu, it is naturally not a simple role. Being able to collect so many precious calligraphy and painting treasures is also related to the environment at that time.
In turbulent times, it has always been an auspicious time to "pick up leaks", and many collections are scattered. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, whether it was the court's rewards from top to bottom or the flow of peers and people, the collection changed hands. The ministers began to collect paintings and calligraphy in the Ming Dynasty. ”
In addition, the new emperors of the Qing Dynasty liked to give out "year-end bonuses" and "performance bonuses". Emperors such as Shunzhi and Kangxi often used the calligraphy and paintings collected in the palace to reward their courtiers.
There's something that you may not know. The collection of paintings and calligraphy in the palace of the Ming Dynasty and the early Qing Dynasty was far inferior to that of the ministers who mainly collected paintings and calligraphy, such as Sun Chengze, Liang Qingbiao, Song Ju, etc.
Of course, the most important thing is his status, background, and money, which provides him with the basis for collecting. In the Ming Dynasty, this guy's family background was very good, Liang Menglong's great-grandson.
Someone is going to ask, who is Liang Menglong? Qi Jiguang's boss is very powerful. And the Liang family has such a top circle of friends, if you want to play collecting, it will be very easy.
In the Qing Dynasty, he was the core figure of the southern painting and the northern crossing, and it was very simple to get some private goods for himself. ”
Then, Hu Yang told everyone a few words about "painting in the south and crossing in the north".
At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the "southern painting and northern crossing" refers to the history of the transfer of calligraphy and painting collections from south to north, the change of collection standards, and the rise of northern collection centers. The migration of the collection was not as swift and direct as the change of dynasties, and after the Qing soldiers went south, they did not bring the paintings and calligraphy to Beijing, but through the connoisseurs.
"In short, when you encounter his collection seal in the future, try not to let it go, it is generally a good thing. Hu Yang said to everyone.
