Chapter 556: Authenticity?
"Lady Janice Devon, it is an honor for me to have you so much in this collection. Chen Ou naturally did not dare to take credit, he responded humbly with ancient and elegant aristocratic etiquette, and everyone's praise suddenly made the atmosphere of the whole venue reach a climax.
"Come on, let's go over there again. Chen Ou stretched out his hand and continued to lead everyone to another place.
At this time, Su Fei stepped forward and began to observe this oil painting carefully, not to mention anything else, this delicate brushstrokes and the control of the details of the characters' expressions are simply wonderful and breathtaking.
Although the painting hangs on the wall, it is sealed by a thick and transparent prism, making it impossible to view it closely.
Su Fei picked up the magnifying glass in his hand and looked at it for a while, shook his head, and smiled slightly at the staff in the internal exhibition hall: "Please help me get a telescope, thank you." ”
Between the gestures, the aristocratic demeanor is fully displayed.
The noble and elegant temperament suddenly stunned the staff, and only reacted when Su Mei reminded him, and hurriedly took a telescope dedicated to observing large collections.
"Do you know that too? This thing seems to be difficult, I can't learn it all the time. Su Mei also picked up a magnifying glass from the staff's hand, looked at it casually and shook his head: "It's too difficult, I can't see anything." ”
Su Fei couldn't help but let out a chuckle: "After you see too much, it will naturally be." ”
Meng Lin's beautiful eyes suddenly flickered twice: "Then Brother Su Fei, have you seen a lot, how did I not know that you would also identify these antiques!"
"It's your brother's secret. Su Fei smiled and reached out to rub Meng Lin's hair, like a big brother who doted on his sister-sister.
Su Fei seemed to be particularly interested in the sapphire necklace around Elizabeth II's neck, he looked up with a telescope and stared at it for a long time, and finally at a certain moment, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
At this time, Chen Ou also circled back with the guests.
Seeing that Su Fei was actually carefully observing this oil painting, Chen Ou asked in some surprise: "Mr. Su will also appraise it?"
"I understand a little. Su Fei put down the telescope in his hand and handed it to the staff, but then just shook his head and said nothing.
Su Meixin was straightforward, and couldn't help but ask: "Su Fei, do you see something?"
When Su Mei said this, it immediately attracted the attention of everyone, including the old woman Janice and Chen Ou, because this painting and the sapphire necklace are still shaking their hearts to this day!
Su Fei couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and smiled helplessly: "Do you really want to say it?"
Su Fei's actions suddenly made everyone a little stunned, because at this time, everyone focused on Su Fei, and finally found a huge contrast between his clothes and his mannerisms, which was like a nobleman wearing poor clothes, which was unbelievable!
Chen Ou naturally recognized Su Fei's demeanor in an instant like Su Mei, and the old woman Janice and they were even more surprised, because Su Fei's demeanor was exactly the same as some ancient court etiquette from the sixteenth century in Europe!
Everyone began to look at Su Fei again!
Chen Ou glanced at Su Mei in surprise, and at this time, Su Mei finally couldn't help but smile proudly: "Now you know why I let Su Fei in." ”
"Young man, tell me what you think. The old woman, Janice, was the first to speak, and she was clearly most interested in the painting.
"Then I can say, don't be angry. ”
As soon as Su Fei opened his mouth, he spoke in a standard Ying-style tone, which could be described as a tactful tone, which made Chen Ou couldn't help but glance at him again.
Su Fei paused slightly, stretched out his hand and led the oil painting behind him: "The oil painting is indeed the authentic work of Bi Connuo, but that sapphire necklace is not a royal treasure in the sixteenth century, Mr. Chen Ou, you have been deceived." ”
"What, you said that sapphire necklace was fake?
"You're too big, young man, how is this possible! How many collections we have seen in the world, we can still tell the difference between the real and the fake. ”
"I thought you were going to say something high-minded, but I didn't think about it, but you were grandstanding!
…………
For a while, the foreign guests put on their faces, and the little goodwill that Su Fei had brought them before was instantly gone!
If it weren't for the fact that they were all extremely well-cultivated collectors, I am afraid that Su Fei would be scolded immediately, instead of being sarcastic like this!
Chen Ou was also blushing by Su Fei's words, he thought that Su Fei would say something, but he didn't think that it was actually to fold his face in front of foreign guests!
Chen Ou frowned and glanced at Su Fei coldly, and couldn't help but let out a soft snort: "Mr. Su, Chen Ou feels that his eyesight is acceptable, but since you think this is fake, then you should treat him as Chen's eye!"
The originally fiery atmosphere instantly became cold because of Su Fei's words, and those eyes pierced Su Fei like sharp ice edges, although there was no physical pain, but the pain penetrated deep into the soul!
Su Mei didn't expect Su Fei to say this, so she couldn't help but quickly elbow Su Fei, but that's all, because she would inevitably attract everyone's hatred if she did too much!
Meng Lin was even more frightened by these gazes and hid directly behind Su Fei!
Feeling the raging anger surrounded by everyone, Su Fei raised the corners of his eyebrows slightly, and laughed helplessly: "I knew it would be like this, so I would rather not say it." ”
"It's okay, it's genuine, there's nothing wrong with just appreciating it, hehe. ”
After speaking, Su Fei pulled Meng Lin to the side, and stroked Meng Lin's hair as he walked: "It's okay, what's there to be afraid of, anyway, you don't want to stay here, let's go home." ”
"Young man, please stay!"
A voice suddenly interrupted Su Fei's departure, it was none other than the old woman of Yingguo named Janice.
She hadn't spoken since just now, as if she was thinking about something, and at this moment she was forced to speak when she saw that Su Fei was leaving.
"I'd like to hear your opinion. ”
Janice showed a kind smile to Su Fei and Meng Lin, and said slowly: "I have just looked at it for a long time, although it seems that there is no problem in any aspect, but I always feel that there is something wrong with the place where the necklace is located, maybe young man, you can answer my doubts." ”
As soon as Janice said this, everyone was a little surprised, you must know that for this painting and this sapphire necklace, Janice has the most right to speak!
Su Fei couldn't help but chuckle: "Then I said, you are not allowed to scold me for talking nonsense." ”
"That's nature. Janice stepped forward with a smile, took Meng Lin to her side, and signaled that Su Fei could start.
Su Fei cleared his throat and spoke very clearly: "The painting I just said is indeed a treasure of Biconor, but he is not enough to prove that this necklace is a treasure of Elizabeth II in the sixteenth century, and the reason is actually very simple. ”
"Because the necklace doesn't even appear on this original painting of Biconor!"
Everyone was confused when Su Fei said a few words, even Chen Ou was the same, only the old woman Janice had all the expressions on her face, and it turned into a sudden realization in an instant!
Seeing that Janice suddenly realized, Su Fei smiled and said: "Everyone is misled by this painting, in fact, this sapphire necklace is not on this original painting of Biconnor at all, but it was artificially added by later generations for some purpose, so I said that this painting does not prove that the necklace is the treasure of Elizabeth II in the sixteenth century!"
A group of people were stunned for a moment, and then grabbed the magnifying glass from the staff one by one and looked at the neck of Elizabeth II on the oil painting, but because the painting was too high, the magnifying glass could not be seen at all!
Chen Ou also discovered this, and suddenly thought of why Su Fei would let people take the telescope, and hurriedly shouted: "Why are you still stunned, go get the telescope!"
Janice also took a telescope and looked up for a long time, and then her eyes lit up!
Not only him, but others also discovered the anomaly one after another! But one or two couldn't tell what was wrong, and they racked their brains there but couldn't figure it out, and they were sweating profusely!
Chen Ou was the same, he took a deep breath, and as a result, a wet tissue handed by the staff wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and asked Su Fei, "Mr. Su Fei, can you explain to everyone what is going on." ”
The tone and attitude are so humble that it's like a different person!
Su Mei couldn't help but be surprised in the back, her lips opened slightly, because everyone's appearance already explained everything, and Su Fei really saw the problem!
But Meng Lin had a smug little look, if it weren't for the fact that she was surrounded by foreign guests at the moment, I am afraid she would jump up jubilantly for the first time, and then shouted loudly: "Brother Su Fei is the best!"
"People are just preconceived ideas, which leads to their own judgment being affected, in fact, you can see the problem if you look closely. Su Fei's whole person exudes an elegant and handsome temperament, and his elegant and classical temperament makes people look sideways.
"Everyone knows that blue has always been a very precious color in the past, and the more blue paint you use, the more expensive it is. ”
"In the 16th century, the blue pigment in the court was still extracted from lapis lazuli according to the ancient method, and the East and West were basically the same, but you can look closely. ”
Su Fei stretched out his hand and led in the direction of the sapphire necklace painted in oil.
Although this blue is very similar to the dark blue extracted from lapis lazuli, it is slightly different in light transmittance and refractive properties, indicating that this is simply another material, and it also proves that this was artificially added later. ”
Everyone picked up the binoculars again and observed for a long time, and finally realized one by one!
"It's terrible! It's terrible! You've found out!"
"In vain, we have been in the collecting world for decades, and we have really lost our eyes, yes, this is not a pigment refined from lazurite. ”
"Hey, we all patronized to see if this painting was the real work of Biconor, just looking at the details, but we didn't notice this, it's a shame, a shame!"
