Chapter 551: A Fish on a Plate

Everyone returned to the yacht first, because everyone had not driven before, and they were a little tired after walking around this circle, so they just went to the yacht to take a rest. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At the same time, Charlize Theron was really a big purchase before, although he didn't spend much money, he bought a lot of things. This night is going to be chic, and it is not convenient to take it with you, so it is best to put it back on the yacht first, not to mention that it will also carry a blue and white plate.

Is Yuan Qinghua expensive?

This would not be expensive, because there were no famous auction cases at all, and before the "Guiguzi Descending Mountain Picture Jar" was speculated by Western professional speculators, Yuan Qinghua was not noticed by wealthy international collectors.

As soon as he returned to the yacht, Zhang Nan took the large plate out of the makeshift box and placed it on the table in the salon.

"Anan, when was this?"

Guan Xingquan's eyes were sharp, and when he saw that the bottom of the plate was porcelain without glaze, and there was no payment, he asked.

Although the pattern lines on the front of the plate have a strong East-Lan style, Guan Boss always feels that this thing should be a Chinese object.

Zhang Nan is also looking at this plate carefully: in the porcelain shop, because of the glass, I feel that this plate is a piece of Yuan blue and white, but even if Xiao Nizi paid for it, she didn't get started, so as not to regret it.

Hearing Brother Guan's question, Zhang Nan said, "From the Yuan Dynasty." ”

"Yuan Dynasty, this is a piece of Chinese porcelain?"

It was little Charlie who asked this question: she really didn't know that this was a Chinese thing, and she really thought it was a Turkish baby.

Zhang Nan said casually: "Do you know the Yuan Dynasty?"

Xiao Nizi nodded, "The terrifying Mongols, the destroyers of civilization, like to slaughter cities without blinking an eye, I didn't think those barbarians could make such beautiful things." ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, he said: "The art of porcelain in China has a long history, and this blue and white porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty should be the craft of the Han people in China, but it was fired according to the requirements of the Mongols at that time......

This is a mackerel algae pattern folding plate, take a ruler and measure, the diameter is up to 45 cm!

Oversized!

The large plate has a wide mouth and folded edge, a shallow arc wall, and a circle foot, looking at the whole body and atmosphere.

The mouth is decorated with flowers and leaves, the inner wall is painted with entwined branches lotus, the center of the disc is round and the light is painted with fish algae, a swimming fish in the middle is fat and vivid, the algae are coiled and drifting around, and the outer wall is decorated with flowers that are entangled in the branches.

The painting style is a typical style of the Yuan Dynasty, with clear layers, rich and majestic, bold and elegant.

The blue and white pigment is a typical Yuan Dynasty "Su Ma Liqing" material, the color is green and lush, and the black and brown spots are covered on it, showing a natural tin light.

“…… This kind of Su material is a material imported from the Western Regions, compared with the domestic green material in China at that time, the color is more natural and the price is expensive.

Moreover, the painting style of the original Yuan Dynasty painters was wanton and bold, rigid and soft, with blue and white Su materials, and later generations of imitators were either delicate and charming or rough and wild, which is rare for its true essence. ”

Guan Xingquan also looked at this plate carefully: this thing is very beautiful, but the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty did not believe in Yi-Silanism, why does this plate smell like Yi-Silan?

"I remember that you had a jar of Yuan Qinghua at home, and this is not a taste. ”

After listening to Boss Guan's words, several other people in the salon were looking at Zhang Nan, but little Charlie was anxious and asked, "I didn't see it?"

"My home in Huaxia. ”

"Oh. ”

"That jar is a figure jar, which depicts ancient Chinese historical stories, of course, there is no foreign style. ”

"Brother Allen, how did the old antiques from China end up in Turkey?

After Xiao Nizi met Zhang Nan, she also went to learn about Huaxia, knowing that from more than 100 years ago until the victory in World War II, this China has been weak for hundreds of years.

"No, Turkey is just a good thing, at the meeting to resist US aggression and aid Korea, the troops sent by Turkey were basically wiped out by us.

Export-only

Because of historical traditions and cultural reasons, we Chinese Han people did not like blue and white porcelain very much in the Song and Yuan dynasties, and we preferred single-color porcelain, such as celadon and white porcelain, which was too flowery in the eyes of people at that time.

At that time, most of the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty was exported to the Western Regions, and the ornamentation and shape were close to the Islam-Lan culture, and many of them were set for foreign nobles and used for important occasions such as large banquets.

At that time, Turkey was under the rule of the Mongols, but some small countries and local forces were not completely slaughtered by the Mongols and became vassals subject to the Mongols.

I think there were three other artifacts of the same kind as this large plate, one in Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, Turkey, the second in the Iranian Archaeological Museum in Tehran, and the last one in the ruins of Fort Filuzsha, the palace of the original Tuglu dynasty in Delhi, India.

It can be inferred from this that these porcelains should have been royal porcelain at that time, and enjoyed a noble status in the countries of the Western Regions.

There are not many Yuan blue and white porcelain, and the currently determined Yuan blue and white porcelain is only between 200 and 400 pieces recognized in the world, and it accounts for more than half of the national museums in Turkey, Iran, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan.

There are not as many domestic museums and archaeological discoveries in China as there are in China and abroad, one is the reason why there are differences between Yuan Qinghua and Chinese traditional ideas and aesthetics, and the second is that this thing was originally used for export. ”

This is a bit like the Qing Dynasty's porcelain, the boutique mainly relies on foreign returns, and the domestic ones that originally belonged to the "export to domestic sales" thing, so the gorgeous colors and patterns did not please most Chinese people at that time.

Xiao Nizi listened to it and seemed to understand, and her attention was focused on the plate again, and then she found that the fish in the middle of the plate had never been seen.

"What kind of fish is this?"

"Bream, but in the U.S., Randy would call it Asian carp. ”

Little Charlie knows about Asian carp: Americans call almost all freshwater fish from Asia Asian carp, except for the black fish.

It's an interesting plate because of the fish!

The fish algae pattern in the plate is an important decoration of Yuan blue and white porcelain, usually the fish algae pattern of Yuan blue and white porcelain is to draw four or two fish, and one fish is mostly mandarin fish, and this piece of bream painted alone in the heart of the plate is very special.

At this time, Guan Xingquan suddenly smiled and said: "In that store, I always feel that this is a Chinese plate, it turns out that it is all because of this Wuchang fish!"

The super soldier's observation is amazing, but this time Guan Xingquan found that he obviously had a loophole in observation and judgment just now!

Wuchang fish, there is a hairy Wuchang fish in Turkey!

Zhang Nan heard Boss Guan's words and said: "Brother Guan, this is a bream, even if it is really a Wuchang fish, Wuchang fish can be regarded as a kind of bream, but it was still a bream in the Yuan Dynasty." ”

Zhang Nan's words were a little awkward, and it was Guan Xingquan's turn to ask why.

In the 50s, more than 30 researchers from the Institute of Aquatic Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences found a bream in Liangzi Lake in Ezhou that was not found in previous literature, so they named it Tuantou bream, commonly known as Wuchang fish.

Don't ask me what the difference is between the two fish, I can't tell the difference.

There was only Wuchang fish 30 years ago, so ......"

Zhang Nan pointed to the plate, "This is a bream." ”

When Boss Guan heard this, he didn't bother to pay attention to people, so he coolly took a Spanish straw hat given to him by Xiao Nizi and walked to the stern of the boat.

"Is it delicious?"

More ideas for snack goods.

"Well, the taste is superb. But if you want to eat, you have to learn how to use chopsticks first. ”

"Why?"

Xiao Nizi is puzzled, 100,000 why.

"There are many stabs, a knife and fork can drive you crazy!"

Why don't Westerners eat freshwater fish except for carnivorous fish?

What is the argument of water pollution is actually biased, Zhang Nan personally feels that it is because of fish bones.

Eating carp and crucian carp with a knife and fork is a disaster, not to mention bream with a lot of bones!

But suddenly something came to mind that I don't understand: Westerners seem to eat sardines, which have a lot of spines and more bones than freshwater bream!

How did they do it?

Xiao Nizi was afraid of fish bones, and suddenly had no love for bream.

"I'll give you something, it's a good fit for you. ”

I thought of giving something to Xiao Nizi.
