Chapter 434: Xiao Zhang imitates blue and white porcelain works that are forbidden to leave the country
Xiao Zhang watched it for almost half a day, and basically had a preliminary conclusion in his heart about the skills of the people who participated in the Tang Sancai Competition.
And some people who are highly accomplished in mud tires basically have preliminary mental considerations.
When almost everyone's mud tires were completed, Xiao Zhang also left.
Tonight is when these mud tires are dry.
And Xiao Zhang happened to be looking for Chen Nanshan at this time, if nothing else, he could go to the opening ceremony of blue and white porcelain tomorrow, and then start participating in the competition the day after tomorrow.
And when the blue and white porcelain was finally fired in the kiln, he also returned to Tang Sancai to select the final winner or loser.
In fact, overall, there is enough time.
......
In the evening, Xiao Zhang finally met Chen Nanshan.
And learned about the blue and white porcelain competition scene.
Unexpectedly, the competition scene of blue and white porcelain is not far from Tang Sancai's.
But it's right to think that there are not many places in the capital that are suitable for firing.
This is the place that can fit so many people.
In fact, there were not many people at the scene of this competition, and they were basically people who came to participate in the competition.
The main purpose is to judge the final winner, not to make it a crowd to visit.
This is to select the ceramics merchants who will eventually participate in the world exhibition.
After Xiao Zhang and Chen Nanshan agreed, they had dinner together, and then they decided to go to the competition together tomorrow.
......
The next day, Xiao Zhang went to the competition as a player, and Chen Nanshan was a player of the Chen family in Jingdezhen.
It is a series of processes such as the opening ceremony, then the leader's speech, and the judges' introduction.
Xiao Zhang entered the arena as a contestant at this time, and then began to prepare to burn porcelain in the afternoon.
The afternoon of the first day was all about the preparations.
Xiao Zhang mainly got out the mud, oil, and green materials today.
Then the blank of the mud tire, this competition requires all the contestants to burn a kiln, each kiln five pieces of blue and white porcelain works.
In the end, the best one will be selected as the final winner of this competition.
And all the blue and white porcelain in the exhibition halls of 100 countries around the world was also handed over to the merchants of this winner.
It took Xiao Zhang about three or four hours to prepare all the mud and then start to draw the first mud tire.
This first mud tire to be fired, Xiao Zhang already had an idea in his heart.
Blue and white porcelain cloud dragon pattern elephant ear vase.
This is a very classic piece of porcelain.
And its original is the original Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain preserved from the Yuan Dynasty.
Bottle plate mouth, long neck, thin belly, platform feet, neck on both sides of the neck with an elephant head ring ear.
The shape is tall and imposing.
The fetus is white, the glaze is transparent, and the blue and white color is beautiful and intense.
From mouth to foot, a total of eight ornaments are painted, which are entwined chrysanthemums, banana leaves, cloud phoenixes, entwined branch lotus, sea water cloud dragon, sea waves, entwined branch peony and miscellaneous treasure lotus petals, the level is clear, complex but not chaotic.
There is a chronological inscription between the banana leaf patterns on the neck: [Xinzhou Road, Yushan County, Shuncheng Township, Dejiao, Jingtang Society, Fengsheng disciple Zhang Wenjin, Xishe incense burner vase, a pair of prayers to protect the safety of the children of the family Qingji. Remember the good day of April in the 11th year of Zheng. Marshal Hu Jingyi of the Xingyuan Ancestral Palace confessed. It proves that this bottle was originally a temple offering.
This bottle has a pair, with the same ornamentation and inscription, and is the most important in existence, with an exact date of typical Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain.
For such a blue and white porcelain, Xiao Zhang can be said to be a classic existence in his heart.
It can be said that as long as the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty in Jingdezhen is mentioned, the authenticity of this piece is the existence that cannot be bypassed.
It is also a very important existence.
Since Xiao Zhang chose to fire, he had to fire the most distinctive blue and white porcelain.
This beautiful and upright porcelain can be said to be a classic production.
Xiao Zhang finished the mud tire in about twenty minutes, and then put it aside to prepare for drying.
I took out the second mud tire that I was going to use.
This second piece is also historically precious.
With Xiao Zhang's current level, the master-level blue and white porcelain firing skills, it is not clear what state Xiao Zhang can show in the end when he fires blue and white porcelain, but Xiao Zhang knows that he will definitely be better than before.
Therefore, to imitate these most classic works in history should also be in the best condition.
For example, this second genuine piece is the Yuan blue and white cloud dragon pattern high-foot bowl.
This piece of history is also unique.
Yuan blue and white cloud dragon pattern tall bowl, also known as Yuan blue and white cloud dragon pattern tall bowl.
In 1975, during the census of cultural relics in the province, the Jilin Museum collected the high-foot bowl from the Nanhara Tuda Brigade of Maodu Commune, Zuozhong Banner of Zhelimu League.
Now in the Jilin Provincial Museum, "Porcelain Garden - Jilin Provincial Museum Collection Fine Ceramics Exhibition".
The cultural relics are 11.4 cm high, the diameter is 12.9 cm, the bottom diameter is 4 cm, and the foot height is 6 cm.
The utensil has an extravagant mouth and a deep belly.
There are three convex chord patterns on the high hoop foot, which are bamboo-shaped. The edge of the mouth is blue and white arabesque.
The inner wall is printed with two dragons.
The outer wall is painted with blue and white dragons and lined with flame patterns.
The blue and white color is verdant and bright, the lines are smooth and powerful, and it can be called a treasure in the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty.
The shape of this piece is very beautiful and very distinctive.
Xiao Zhang nodded, and slowly presented the imitation mud tire of this work.
Xiao Zhang, who already had a draft in his heart, was very smooth to get started.
These classic blue and white porcelains were shaped in Xiao Zhang's mind.
Xiao Zhang is almost constantly pulling blanks on the wheel.
In almost fifteen minutes, the mud tire was basically formed.
Of course, the final pattern and green material pattern still need to be dried before painting.
But judging from the current mud tires, it is indeed very unusual.
Xiao Zhang is now satisfied with his blue and white porcelain skills.
At the very least, the skills of the mud tire are constantly improving.
The third clay tire Xiao Zhang also began to prepare.
This third piece of blue and white porcelain is also a piece that Xiao Zhang values more.
There is no other reason, because yesterday Xiao Zhang saw a contestant at the scene of Tang Sancai who burned a work that was forbidden to leave the country.
This also gave Xiao Zhang an idea.
If Xiao Zhang of this specification has a work in his heart that can be fired.
That is the Yuan blue and white Xiao He Yuexia chasing Han Xintu plum vase, this is the porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty, unearthed in 1950 in Nanjing Jiangning General Mountain Muying Tomb, now collected in the Nanjing Museum.
The Yuan Qinghua Xiao He Yuexia Chasing Han Xintu Plum Vase was fired by the Jingdezhen kiln, with a height of 44.1 cm, a diameter of 13 cm at the bottom, an abdominal diameter of 28.4 cm, and a diameter of only 5.5 cm.
uncovered, small mouth, flat and thick mouth edge, neck short and thin, flat shoulders, constricted below the shoulders, shins elongated, outward skimmed near the bottom, flat bottom.
The abdomen draws the historical story of "Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon".
And outside the picture, there are five groups of ornamental ribbons, and the whole plum vase is decorated with complicated decorations, and the layout of the ornamental ribbons is sparse and dense.
