Chapter 417: Mixed Truth

Yu Yao couldn't help but be stunned, and was about to speak, but Shang Yong followed up and said, "Auntie, it's okay for you to say it now!"

Shang Duqiu looked at Shang Yong, "You just said that you respect Xiao Yu's eyesight?"

"That's right!"

Shang Duqiu turned to look at Yu Yao, "Xiao Yu, are you Gui Geng this year? You should be less than thirty years old, right?"

"It's not yet, but it's coming soon. ”

"The ophthalmology of antiques takes years to accumulate. Which of you has the strongest eyesight in terms of antiques?"

"This······ I know a little bit about it. ”

Shang Duqiu's face sank, "So, you also understand all kinds of fabrics, including silk?"

Yu Yaoxin said, if I don't know how to pick up the leaks, what does this old lady want to do?

"Fabric is an unpopular antique, understand it is to understand it, but it must be difficult to compare with Granny Shang. ”

Shang Duqiu's face softened slightly, "Antiques are not unpopular, only the level of eyesight." In terms of ancient fabrics, there are indeed few people who understand it, let alone a young man like you. ”

"Auntie, Mr. Yu's eyesight is indeed very high. If nothing else, I've seen porcelain with my own eyes!" Shang Yong interjected.

Shang Duqiu waved his hand, "You know I don't understand porcelain." ”

When Yu Yao heard this, he said in his heart, is it difficult for this old lady to wash the silk and take the school exam, and her eyesight is not successful?

It is said that people are old and refined, Shang Duqiu stared at Yu Yao, as if he could see through his thoughts, "I am not interested in your eyesight." But Ah Yong didn't know what kind of ecstasy soup he was poured by you, and he kept saying good things for you. If you really have eyesight, that's fine, if you don't, it's not a good thing!"

Yu Yaoxin said, okay, Shang Yong helped himself speak, and poured it out to have a counterproductive effect.

Shang Yong hurriedly shouted, "Oh, auntie, Boss Yu is really eyesighted! You don't know me yet, you like to collect antiques, and naturally respect experts with high eyesight!"

"So I'll have to give him a try! If he really has an eye, it's a friend worth making, and I can help him. If not, I advise you to stay away!"

Yu Yaoyan saw that the matter had come to this, "Granny Shang, do you want to test my fabric antiques?"

"Are you answered?" Shang Duqiu asked rhetorically.

"I've come all the way here, and I shouldn't and can't. And my nephew and I are gentlemen's friends, and he recommended me to visit you, I should be grateful, and I should eliminate the misunderstanding. ”

"That's a good point. Shang Duqiu smiled slightly, "If I take the exam for your fabric antiques, it will become a bully for the juniors." However, just now Ah Chung said that I have seen your eyesight on porcelain, but I don't understand porcelain. It just so happens that I have one thing here, which is neither fabric nor porcelain. ”

"Presumably, it should also be a soft film?"

"You're clever. Shang Duqiu raised his hand and pointed behind him, "This vertical scroll, you can take a look at it first, and then comment on it." ”

Yu Yao actually noticed a painting hanging on the back wall of the living room as soon as he entered the door. However, I really didn't have time to take a closer look.

"Hundred Flowers and Male Crown". In the flowers, the flowers are full and gorgeous, and on the bluestone in the center of the flowers, there is a cockscomb full and huge rooster standing tall.

It is said that it is not a school fabric, but this painting is also on silk.

Although he didn't look closely, he felt that Yu Yao should be a Ming man's work, and he just wanted to see it, so he nodded and walked forward.

Shang Yong seemed to want to go over, but Shang Duqiu pointed at him, "Since you respect his eyesight, what else is there to worry about?"

Porcelain and calligraphy and painting can be the two biggest in antiques, although Shang Duqiu did not take the school porcelain, but she also did not take the school for strange things, and she also said the reason before, so Yu Yao was not disgusted.

This "Hundred Flowers Crown" is with a clear inscription and seal.

In the twentieth year of Chenghua, Jiachen autumn and September, and painted Shen Zhou.

Upper circular seal: Ganjietang. The lower part of the seal is on two sides, Zhu Wen "Qi Nan", Bai Wen "Shi Tian".

Shen Zhou, whose name is Qinan, and whose name is Shitian, is regarded as a figure in the literati painting circle of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, and has made the greatest achievements in landscapes, flowers and birds.

Shen Zhou, Tang Yin, Wen Zhengming, and Qiu Ying are also known as the "Ming Four Families", and their names are not small. And these four people are also inextricably linked, Tang Yin and Wen Zhengming are both Shen Zhou's apprentices, and Tang Yin's other teacher, Zhou Chen, is also Qiu Ying's teacher.

Yu Yao looked at it for seven or eight minutes, then returned to his seat and sat down.

"How's that, good, right?" Shang Yong asked, obviously with a hint, and Shang Duqiu couldn't help but glance at him.

"Not so good. Yu Yao said in his heart, thanks to you for not giving me a hint of the problem.

Shang Duqiu frowned slightly, "What's not so good?"

"Granny Shang, then I'll be blunt?"

"Say!"

"As far as painting is concerned, it belongs to imitation brushes, and it is the same period as Shen Zhou's brush and ink, and his skills are not weak. However, on the whole, it has also reached the point of being fake. ”

"If it's a fake, how can you see it?"

"What I'm talking about is that, on the whole, it has reached the point of being fake, and in terms of painting skills alone, there is still a gap between it and Shen Zhou's authentic handwriting. ”

Shang Duqiu's face was expressionless, "You said that if there is a gap, there is a gap?"

Yu Yao smiled faintly, "Twenty years after Chenghua, Shen Zhou is almost sixty years old, and he belongs to his old age. In his later years, his pen and ink were bold and rough, with a majestic momentum. This painting, although it is trying to imitate it, is still not strong enough, and it is more than delicate. ”

Shang Duqiu's eyes changed, "But ······"

"However, there is no flaw in the payment and seal, right?"

"Yes. Shang Duqiu couldn't help but respond.

"That's why I say that in general, the fake is the truth, because this painting is a mixed bag. The painting is an imitation pen, but the inscription and the seal are genuine. Yu Yao replied lightly.

Shang Yong suddenly stood up from his chair, "You mean, someone else imitated the painting, but Shen Zhou himself printed the inscription?

"How is it impossible?" Yu Yao continued, "Shen Zhou's calligraphy has a bit of Huang Tingjian's strange and vigorous characteristics, and at the same time has its own characteristics and play, which is extremely difficult to imitate! Moreover, the calligraphy on this is definitely the real handiwork." ”

Shang Duqiu was silent for a while.

Shang Yong couldn't help but walk up to Yu Yao's side, "I believe in your eyesight, what I'm asking is why?"

"I'll cut it short. Shen Zhou is a very casual person, and his genuine works have not been handed down to the world, because whenever someone asks for a painting, it is almost a response, whether it is a high-ranking official or a rich businessman, or a peddler and pawn, he is treated equally. The most terrible thing is that some unknown painters of the same era, knowing his temperament and imitating his paintings, even took the door-to-door asking for the question, and Shen Zhou actually agreed, and after the title, they often 'attached' a seal. ”

"Huh?" Shang Yong didn't know about this paragraph, "This, isn't this a bit of a god······"

"It's not a neurosis!" Yu Yao waved his hand, "just because, you don't know him." ”/15_15602/
