Chapter 275: Xing Dong's Copybook
"If you don't believe it, forget it, it's not your share anyway. Ye Qiushuang rolled his eyes and said.
Hearing the meaning of Ye Qiushuang's words, Vice President Yang felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked at Zhao Tianming: "Brother, what's the situation?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Yang, this piece of ancient ink, I'm going to give it to a senior who likes the four treasures of the study, and I don't plan to make a move. Zhao Tianming had no choice but to explain again.
When Vice President Yang heard him say this, his face was full of regret, as if he had missed millions.
If this piece of ancient ink is handed over to their auction house to operate, it is conceivable how shocking it will be, and the popularity of their auction house will definitely leap thousands of miles, and it is not a problem to beat Tianhong Auction House at all, and it is very possible to take this opportunity to go to the next level.
It's just that Zhao Tianming said so, and he had no choice but to give up, and there was no room for even a little roundabout, and he couldn't find that senior to change hands again.
Since the senior in his mouth is a lover of this aspect, he will definitely not take it out for auction again, and besides, it is not appropriate to take out the things given by others and put them up for auction as soon as they change hands.
However, with Zhao Tianming's other gains, there is finally some comfort, and the beauty who is with him is not for nothing.
After Zhao Tianming finished processing the harvest in his hand, he was pulled aside by Ye Qiushuang, she took out a somewhat broken and unframed picture scroll from the mahogany box, and asked him: "What is the name of this thing? It's definitely not a big road product, right?"
At that time, in the utility room, only the two of them were outside, Ye Qiushuang casually wanted to throw away the broken picture scroll, but it was Zhao Tianming who hinted that she put it away, so she casually stuffed it into the mahogany box at her feet and brought it back.
Zhao Tianming took it and unfolded the scroll, this is not a painting, but a calligraphy of the Ming Dynasty calligrapher Xing Dong, the lower left corner of the paragraph "Jinan Xing Dong", the seal "to the bird Jiyuan Mountain Master", "Zi Yuan".
In addition, there are a few people's collection seals, but they are not famous figures, and Zhao Tianming does not know any of them.
This calligraphy has been somewhat damaged because the pearl is dusty and has not been kept properly, and there is a gap on the right side, like a mouse bite. Fortunately, the gap is not deep, and it does not hurt the font inside.
In addition to aesthetic reasons, it is also convenient to leave a seal, and even invite some friends to inscribe and leave money to appreciate each other.
For example, Su Dongpo, Mi Fu, Huang Tingjian, three people, is a good friend, the relationship is very good, in their works, you can often see another person's praise, word inscription.
"Is this Xing Dong's calligraphy?"
Ye Qiushuang was not very interested in the copybook, but when he saw a few Tibetan seals on it, he instinctively felt that it should not be fake. The ancients generally carefully confirmed that it was a genuine handiwork, and then left their own collection seal, so as not to be accidentally hit in the eye and laugh for future generations, so the collection seal is also called the collection seal.
Of course, this is not absolute, it does not mean that those with a collection seal are genuine, Qianlong's palace has thousands of collections, and it is not the same as being eye-catching, let alone some ordinary people.
Xing Dong, Ye Qiushuang still knows something, he is a calligrapher in the Ming Dynasty, one of the four masters of the late Ming Dynasty, and Dong Qichang, Mi Wanzhong, Zhang Ruitu are equally famous, and Dong Qichang is known as "North Xing South Dong".
He is good at poetry, calligraphy and painting, but he is most famous for calligraphy, and many calligraphy works are very sought-after.
"Xing Dong's calligraphy?"
Vice President Yang was immediately interested, Xing Dong is not known much by ordinary people, and there are no allusions circulating, but many people in the industry are still very keen on his works, if it is a well-made painting, the price will not be low.
However, when he saw the somewhat tattered picture scroll, his expectations suddenly lowered a lot. When I saw that it didn't hurt the roots, I was relieved a lot, although it was a little damaged, it was well framed, and it was still very complete.
"As far as I can tell, this is genuine, and one of the rare treasures. You look at the seal on it, 'Come to the bird Jiyuan Mountain Master', this is the number he only had in his later years, indicating that this is a work created in his later years. In addition, this calligraphy is his best line of grass, and the copying is also his best Wang Xizhi's penmanship, which can be said to be a meticulous work. ”
Zhao Tianming carefully observed the calligraphy and said, Speaking of which, Xing Dong is also quite interesting.
He first studied Wang Chong's calligraphy, and later studied the penmanship of Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi's father and son. And his paintings are imitation of Wang Mian and Wang Meng's brushwork, and it seems that he has a soft spot for calligraphers and painters surnamed Wang.
Moreover, he has been smart since he was a child, he can write a big book at the age of seven, the sword is tense, the momentum is vivid, when he learns the regular script of Wang Pet, he is only thirteen years old, and at the age of twenty-four, he was admitted to the Jinshi, and at the age of thirty-six, he did it to the Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple, and he is a fourth-grade official.
Just when the future was immeasurable, he did not hesitate, resigned and returned home, and spent the rest of his life devoting himself to studying and creating, and also built a poultry hall to entertain guests from all over the world.
Because he spent too much money, he originally had a lot of money, but later his family fell into the middle. It seems that the behavior of geniuses is always something that is difficult for ordinary people to understand.
Xing Dong absorbs the strengths of others, all over the Wei, Tang and Song dynasties, and his strength lies in the vividness of his copying ancient works, and his famous works are mostly temporary works.
He works in a variety of calligraphy styles, especially good at cursive, but his artistic creativity is far from enough, compared with Dong Qichang, Zhang Ruitu, and Huang Daozhou, because the mud is not ancient, and lacks the display of personality.
He was very disgusted with the crazy inability of calligraphy in the late Ming Dynasty, and was incompatible with Dong Qichang and Zhang Ruitu, who were the mainstream of ugliness as beauty at that time.
In addition, his calligraphy is famous at home and abroad, cherished by everyone, and recognized by the world. In addition to many museums in China, his writings are now stored in the London Museum, Japan, and Southeast Asian countries.
Zhao Tianming's analysis made Ye Qiushuang and Vice President Yang put down their hearts, this guy's level is obvious to all, since he is so sure, it shouldn't be fake, there is no doubt that it is genuine.
"Xing Dong's calligraphy, ordinary people are not very interested, and those who speculate on antique paintings and calligraphy rarely buy it, and even if they want to start, they will keep the price extremely low. Why don't you give this calligraphy to our auction house?"
Vice President Yang put the idea on Ye Qiushuang's head, such a treasure of Xing Dong, I believe that many people in the industry will be interested, especially some calligraphy lovers.
"Yes!" Ye Qiushuang is very simple, she has no nostalgia for antique calligraphy and paintings, but is extremely enthusiastic about those weird and strange magical small objects.
