Chapter 80: Broken Mirror Reunion
"What's wrong?" Jian Er was incomprehensibly looked at by Lu Zong's eyes.
With a long sigh of relief, Lu Zong had to sigh for the good luck of his master: "Back to Miss, don't hide that Miss said that I have really seen this painting in Xia, and it has a lot to do with it,......" Lu Zong paused, and then said, "Please also ask Miss Rong to retire first, and when Miss sees something, she will naturally understand." ”
After speaking, Lu Zong saluted Jian'er and withdrew.
Jian Er was confused, what was the situation, but it seemed that this painting still had something to do with Lu Zong, and it seemed that this time she could clearly understand the entanglement of Jinxiu.
It was just a cup of kung fu, and Lu Zong came back with an object in his hand, which looked like it was also a scroll. Lu Zong stood still in front of Jian Er, and carefully placed the scroll in his hand side by side next to the "Crow Formation Diagram" in front of Jian Er.
Lu Zong didn't unfold the scroll he brought, but stood up and said, "I wonder if Miss has carefully read this 'Crow Array Diagram' you bought?"
Jian Er blushed: "I saw it, but I didn't see the reason, I just heard my friend Jinxiu say that this painting is a little evil." "Thanks to the blessing of the physique mutation, although Jian'er can't say that everything can be remembered now, as long as you keep a little bit to write down eighty or ninety percent, it is a problem of Mu Cheng, so there is no pressure to repeat the words of Jinxiu now!
She said that Tang Bohu's paintings are very fond of using thick ink for rendering. But the strange graphite color on this painting is very light, and there is no such feeling of ink dripping. In terms of style, it doesn't look like Tang Bohu's handwriting, and there are these places. Jian Er continued, and learned to draw a few times on the picture, "It is said that there are still some slight differences between these brushstrokes and his brushwork style after a closer look, and the whole looks like two people painted together." ”
After speaking, Jian Er looked at Lu Zong with a blank eye, not knowing whether what she said was right or not, and showing off in front of the experts, hoping not to say that she was wrong and ugly.
After listening to Jian'er's words, Lu Zong touched his short beard, but nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, yes, Miss's friend has a bit of vision." ”
Hearing this, Jian Er couldn't help but straighten her chest, looking like she was honored, in her heart, praising Jinxiu was no different from praising her.
But Lu Zong then said: "Except for the few places you circled, I wonder if your friend said that there are any differences with Tang Bohu's painting style in other places?"
Jian Er thought about it and shook her head, she hadn't heard Jinxiu say it.
Lu Zong smiled slightly: "The style and techniques are all the same as Tang Bohu, and there are no traces of forgery in the pen, seal, and even the inscription, doesn't she think it's strange?"
After thinking about it, I recalled what Jinxiu kept muttering on the road when I came back, "I'd rather be fake than true, not real and fake", what is evil, and you shouldn't start...... I talked all the way.
But now it seems that Lu Zong does not agree with this. "Could it be that it was repaired?" Jian Er heard that if there is a defect in the painting, it will be reframed when repairing, and the missing part will be repaired with a pen and color, so I think this may indeed be the case.
As soon as this idea came to her, Jian Er couldn't hold back any longer, and almost focused her eyes on the painting to take a closer look.
The more she looked at Jian Er, the fog on her head got bigger, she believed that her eyes, even if Jian Er's physique had not changed before, both eyes were standard 1.5, if you asked her if her eyes were sharp enough, Jian Er would definitely raise her head and reply, her eyes were absolutely all barrage.
But now, no matter how much she looked at it, she didn't notice any defects in this painting.
Looking at Jian'er's appearance, Lu Zong couldn't help but laugh, his own young lady looked really funny.
Suddenly, Jian Er seemed to think of something: "It's really dead, and I can't use any tools." He took out the necessary equipment for people who play antiquities in Jinxiu's mouth - a high-powered magnifying glass. It's really stupid, and I forgot to use the work I specially prepared.
"Hey, hey, I don't believe it, I can even see a small plastic wound with this thing, and I can't see a small picture of yours clearly. After saying that, he proudly picked up his big killing weapon and put it on.
After looking at it carefully for a long time, Jian Er said uncertainly: "There seems to be something pasted on this? It is still a little unreal under this high-powered magnifying glass, I really don't know who, this is really a bit ingenious!"
Under such a high-magnification glass, with Jian'er's eyesight, if she looked so closely, she felt that the trace seemed to be there or not, and she was not sure. If he really did it, the person's skill was too profound. No wonder Jian Er sighed repeatedly.
This time, Lu Zong finally laughed with satisfaction, gave a thumbs up and praised: "Miss has good eyesight! That's right, what this painting needs is not to fill in the gaps, but to pick up what was pasted before." ”
There was really something pasted, and Jian Er was amazed: "Whose craft is this, it's really amazing!"
"Thank you, Miss for the compliment. Lu Zong saluted.
Jian'er couldn't help but open her eyes wide, isn't it, is it difficult......
Lu Zong nodded, indicating that Jian Er's guess was not wrong.
"I didn't expect that. Lu Zong still couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't think about it, it's been a thousand years, and I can still see it." I didn't expect that one day, this "Crow Array" would have the day of reunion. As soon as he finished saying this, Lu Zong suddenly took a few steps forward and unfolded the painting he had placed before.
With Lu Zong's movements, Jian Er couldn't believe her eyes, what did she see? There were actually "twin" paintings! Jian Er compared every detail, but found that most of the two paintings were simply not at all deviated. Her mouth opened wide in surprise at what she had seen.
Lu Zong smiled slightly on the side, looking at Jian Er's surprised appearance with a wicked taste, taking pleasure in scaring her.
Looking at Jian Er's surprised appearance with satisfaction, and caressed his treasure with love, Lu Zong explained the reason.
"These two "Crow Formations" are from the same painting. ”
A big question mark appeared in Jian'er's eyes, these two "Crow Arrays" are from the same painting? What does this mean?
Knowing that Jian'er is a layman, she can't understand many things. So Lu Zong also said patiently and carefully: "I usually use rice paper as a material when I usually paint, and Miss knows that this rice paper is a layered system, that is to say, a finished rice paper can be split into at least two or three layers, and those good and thick rice paper can even be split into more than ten layers." ”
With her eyes wide, Jian Er couldn't believe what she had just heard, wasn't it, such a thin piece of paper and such a large amount of knowledge and such a complicated process. It is possible for a piece of paper to be split into more than ten layers, if it weren't for the fact that this was said by Lu Zong, the authentic Lu Zong's lineage, Jian Er would have thought that this was an ancient (blind fabrication).
After getting Lu Zong's affirmative eyes again, Jian Er was already looking at this "Crow Array Map" with admiration. Awesome!
After Lu Zong said this, his eyes seemed to become distant, as if he was recalling something, and after sorting out his thoughts for a while, Lu Zong continued: "Speaking of which, this is really fate, I still remember that day, I found this "Crow Array Map" in the antique shop, so I hurriedly took it to a close friend in the next place to appreciate. I didn't know that when I first entered his house, what I saw was the same "Crow Array" as the painting below. At that time, my first reaction was that one of us must have been eye-catching ("eye-catching" usually means that the buyer has bought a collection that is not worth this price at a higher price, or bought a fake), but I didn't expect to wait more carefully and find that the two paintings were exactly the same!"
Drink! This is interesting! Jane's eyes became excited.
"After careful discussion, I finally came to an astonishing conclusion, that is: it is possible that the "Crow Formation Map" painted by Tang Bohu was uncovered.
"What does that mean?" asked Jian Er curiously.
"Didn't I say before that this rice paper can be layered, and it is precisely because of this characteristic of rice paper that once this kind of good painting is in the hands of unscrupulous merchants, they will split the original work. In this way, one piece becomes two. The kind-hearted ones are just split in two. Those who are not kind can simply reveal as many layers as they can. Speaking of this, Lu Zong couldn't help but sigh.
You must know that the uncovered calligraphy and painting, even if it is a thin layer, can also be thickened with a special rice paper support, even if the color is not as good as the original, but only ask the master to paint it on the original painting, and then use the old method to make it old, in the eyes of ordinary people, it will naturally become a genuine work. Therefore, many dishonest framers often use this method to steal other people's paintings and calligraphy, which also makes many collectors hate.
Because the greatest danger of unveiling a painting is that the painting is no longer original. Then it becomes very fragile. Once a painting is damp or preserved for a long time, it can easily deform, decay, or even fall off on the mounting...... It is for these reasons that very few paintings have survived. Even if there were, it was estimated that it would be considered a fake, or not taken seriously, or put on the shelf, and few people would think that it was a debunking. Not to mention being able to be so lucky to put together the paintings that were revealed.
"Then you mean that this Tang Bohu's "Crow Array" has been revealed, and it has been passed down to this day?" After a pause, Jian Er said again: "That's not right, why would you do something on another painting?"
Lu Zong continued: "That's right, this "Crow Formation Map" has been revealed. But fortunately, from all aspects, the original painting was only uncovered in two parts, so that it was only divided into two, otherwise, if it was replaced by a very thin painting, it should have long been cracked, wrinkled, etc., how can it be preserved intact to this day?"
"As for why you did it on another painting!" Lu Zong paused and sighed. RS
