Chapter 28 True and False, Painting in a Painting!
This is a rectangular box about one meter long, it should be the kind of thing used to place scroll paintings, the box is not special, after Ding Lingwei opened the box, a picture scroll appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
This picture scroll is still rolled up at this time, no one knows what is inside, from the outside the paper is slightly yellowed, like an old thing that has been baptized by the years, but whether this is an old thing, no one can say, now the counterfeiting skills are too high, just use a little chemical composition can turn a newly made paper into a thing that looks hundreds of years old.
After the box was opened, a faint fragrance also reached everyone's noses, Liu Nan also took a few sips, this aroma should be the fragrance of sandalwood, he also wore some bracelets made of sandalwood, so he could distinguish it at once, but when he looked at the "birthplace" of the fragrance, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.
This aroma is the one that comes out of Ding Lingwei's picture scroll, and the only thing that can have a fragrance in the picture scroll is the shaft rod on the picture scroll.
The skill of a painting is important, but there is one thing that is also very important, that is, the framing of a painting, a good framing will bring the finishing touch to a painting, in ancient times every famous painter or calligrapher was a good framing technician.
Then look at this scroll, this shaft rod is obviously different from the paper of this painting, the paper is like an old thing, which even Liu Nan, a rookie, can see, and Liu Nan is now puzzled by the same painting, why the shaft of this painting is very new.
That's right, it's very new, the shaft rod is red with purple color, obviously a high-quality sandalwood, the surface is smooth and shiny, some lights in the house shine on it, reflecting a faint light, reflective look, look at the vertical lines on the shaft rod, the whole shaft rod can not see a trace of erosion by the years, obviously a short time thing.
Immediately, Ding Lingwei answered Liu Nan's doubt.
He looked at everyone and said: "This painting is something I got a few years ago, and it has also been identified by some experts, including my teacher, of course, but because the original shaft on it has been broken, I have replaced it with a new one, and the thing must be an old thing, as long as you can see whether this is the real work of the painter nominated on the painting." ”
"Cut, don't confess, if this thing is a fake, will you use precious sandalwood to reframe this painting?" Liu Nan secretly thought in his heart, you must know that now sandalwood is a popular collection because of its scarcity and preciousness, if this is a fake painting, it is impossible to frame it with sandalwood.
But immediately Liu Nan dispelled the idea in his heart, if he was a normal person, he would definitely not do such a thing, but he didn't dare to guarantee this Ding Lingwei in front of him, and no one could say whether he would spend a lot of money to confuse everyone for this victory.
"Please Brother Ding hurry up and open this thing, so that we can see what kind of work this is. Li Li said.
Ding Lingwei smiled when he heard this, took out the scroll and slowly opened it......
After opening, everyone has a feeling of sudden enlightenment, this is a landscape painting, about one meter five long, about one meter wide, the painting of a piece of continuous towering mountains in the top of the whole picture, then what kind of heroic momentum is this, the mountains are connected together, making people feel as if they are in the scene, Liu Nan, who is sitting next to watching this painting, has a sense of insignificance.
A river runs through the mountain under the mountain, a few stones and two old trees, although the picture is forbidden, but Liu Nan feels a feeling as if he is alive, a man in an ancient robe under the tree stands with his hands in his hands, looking at the gold in the painting.
At the top of the picture, a few lines of floating font are noted there, Liu Nan doesn't know most of the words, but only the two big characters of Shen Zhou below can be slightly understood.
A layman like Liu Nan is now fascinated by it, not to mention a few knowledgeable people on the scene, they are now eager to run into the painting and appreciate it well, but there is a hint of something else in Yu Guang's eyes, as if he has something to say, but he can't help but say it.
"Ahem... Ahem. Ding Lingwei pretended to cough a few times before pulling back the few people who had been completely trapped in the painting, and he said: "Okay, I think everyone has seen it just now, the nomination for this painting is Mr. Shen Zhou, the great painter of the Ming Dynasty, now you just need to tell me whether this painting is Mr. Shen Zhou's handwriting, Xiao Liu and Brother Li, which of the two of you came first?"
Before Liu Nan could speak, Li Li spoke first: "Brother Ding, why don't you let me take a look at this painting first?"
Ding Lingwei made an inviting gesture when he heard this, and Li Li immediately pulled the painting in front of him and began to observe it carefully......
Shen Zhou is a famous painter of the Ming Dynasty, his works are strong, the ink is bold and bold, the momentum is strong, he is known for his landscape paintings, some of his works are to describe the mountains and rivers, showing the three distant scenery of traditional landscape painting, and most of the works are to describe the southern landscape and garden scenes, showing the leisure of the literati life at that time.
He was the founder of the 'Wu School' in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and created a large number of hand-me-down works in his lifetime, which now has great potential for collection, and once his paintings appear in many auction houses, people must flock to buy them.
Of course, most people know him, not because of the above reasons, but because he is the teacher of the male protagonist in a famous movie, and that person is Tang Yin - Tang Bohu, he is also called the Ming Four by Later Generations and Tang Yin, Wen Huiming, and Qiu Ying.
Most of Shen Zhou's paintings in his early years were mainly small paintings, and he began to create a large number of large-scale works in middle age, and that period was also the peak of his creation, a large number of classic works were created during that period, and judging from the size of this painting on the table, most of them should be what he created at his peak, if it is genuine, the market value should exceed one million!
Where Li Li quietly watched this painting, in fact, in his heart, he had already decided that this painting was genuine. However, in order to be able to observe this painting for a long time, he also pretended not to finish it.
"This painting has smooth lines and a deep foundation in ink, and it is definitely one of the works created by Shen Zhou at his peak, no worse than those of his contemporaries hidden in the National Museum, and even much higher, and there is no need to travel to see such things today." Li Li thought excitedly in his heart.
"Wait! I don't think there's something wrong with this painting. Li Li was about to say the answer, but suddenly a question appeared in his heart, he didn't know where some problems appeared, but he always felt that something was wrong.
"What's the problem?" Li Li frowned slightly, thinking carefully, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly realized.
"Brother Ding, I think this thing is a fake, not Shen Zhou's heirloom work. ”
"Fake? impossible, Xiao Ding, you must have read it wrong this time, how can such a good landscape painting be fake?" Lu Desheng said on the side, his whole heart was devoted to this painting, and he didn't expect that he was still competing, and directly said his own opinion.
"Brother Lu, what Brother Ding said just now is just one of his opinions, he thinks this painting is fake, that's just his opinion, what you think is true is also your opinion, let's discuss it after Xiao Liu finishes it, what we have to do now is to let Xiao Liu take a look at my painting first, are you right?"
"Yes, yes, I forgot about this occasion, I was rude just now. Lu Desheng replied to Ding Lingwei.
When Ding Lingwei heard this, he didn't have any expression, turned his head to Liu Nan and said: "Brother Li has already given his answer just now, now it's just Xiao Liu, take a good look at my thing, are there any small loopholes, you are an expert in finding loopholes." ”
"Hmph, I will. Liu Nan responded with a smile.
Then he slowly pulled the painting to his side with his right hand and began to observe it.
To say that this Chinese painting is indeed a magical thing, although it is not as simple and straightforward as oil painting, but this abstract beauty, but also has its unique charm, just like this landscape painting, although it is only a thing composed of some swarthy ink, but in the eyes of people, it has an immersive feeling.
Liu Nan did not rush to use his left hand to detect the authenticity of this painting, but devoted himself to this artistic conception, feeling the visual impulse brought to him by this painting, he did not pay attention to Su Yongchun, who had always been very mysterious, whispered a word to a bodyguard behind him.
After a long time, he felt that everyone was a little impatient, and he slowly touched his left hand to the painting, and then, his left hand trembled violently, and the ice gas also slowly flowed out from his arm, into the painting, this time the font in his mind did not appear early, but waited until all the ice gas returned to the left arm, and the font in his mind slowly emerged.
"In 1477, Shen Zhou!"
This time the feeling was a little different from the last few times, the last few times Liu Nan used the ability of his left hand, there was no mysterious feeling in his body, but this time he felt as if he had taken a stimulant, and his whole body was full of strength.
Surprised, Liu Nan didn't have too many doubts, after all, his body had already given him a lot of shock, and now it was not surprising that there was a little more, and then he was ready to open his mouth to say what was in his mind.
But suddenly, the text message prompt on his mobile phone rang, Liu Nan took it out, opened it and took a look, and the few words displayed on the screen made him stunned!
The phone screen reads: "True inside and outside, there is a picture in the painting!"
[I made up for yesterday!] I was tired from staying up late and went to sleep. 】
