Chapter 70: Fakes
Finally, Yang Fan is a little scruple about the identity of the appraisal consultant, those appraisers in the auction house should be regarded as seniors, right?
At this point, He Tan said that Yang Fan was reassured. After what happened last time, the appraisers in the auction house were gloomy and did not dare to mention what was wrong. In addition, there is the identity of Jia Lao there, who dares to say anything?
"Let's go, I'll take you to visit someone. He Tan said.
This is the second reason he came here, for an auction item, and it will be one of the highlights of the next auction.
On the way, he explained to Yang Fan that the person was an invisible rich man in Dengfeng City and a philanthropist. This time, I am going to take out a treasure from my collection to auction, and all the funds obtained will be donated to the nursing home to improve the lives of the lonely elderly in the nursing home.
"He's a legend in your Dengfeng City. Of course, it's been almost ten years, and I'm afraid not many people still remember him. He Tan said.
That person's name is Huang Shiquan, and he started a smuggling business ten years ago, specializing in smuggling some rare resources from abroad and selling them to the state at a high price, making a lot of money, and the country even credited him for his contributions.
It can make a lot of money and make the country remember its merits, which was envied by many people at that time.
However, the others had no way out and could only look at the red eye.
In addition, Huang Shiquan is keen to buy back lost cultural relics from abroad. It is no exaggeration to say that he is definitely a collector, and the collection is large enough to build a small museum.
Yang Fan was a little surprised that such a character actually lived in the suburbs.
When I came to Huang Shiquan's home, it was not very luxurious, but it was decorated in an ancient style, the place was very spacious, and the guards were tight, so that people could see that the first feeling was that it was heavy.
Huang Shiquan personally met with He Tan: "How is your grandfather He Lao lately?"
"He's a good old man now, of course. He Tan smiled.
The two of them can be regarded as a bit of friendship, in the past, Huang Shiquan gave treasures to his grandfather, but he received very little, so as not to fall into the eyes of others and cause controversy.
Then, He Tan introduced Yang Fan to Huang Shiquan.
"It turned out to be a senior disciple of Jia Lao, so I will contact you more in the future. Huang Shiquan opened his mouth, he didn't care too much, but when he heard that it was Jia Lao's apprentice, he immediately took it seriously.
"Okay! I want Boss Huang to take care of it in the future. Yang Fan hurriedly said.
He observed that this man, who was about fifty years old, was said to have no children yet, and it was no wonder that he was so keen on doing good deeds.
The three chatted for a while, and when they got to the point, Huang Shiquan took out a scroll of paintings from it. According to what he just introduced, it was a picture of Qiu Ying's lady that he bought at a private charity auction in the United States.
Qiu Ying is one of the representative painters of the Ming Dynasty, and together with Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin, he was called the "Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty" and "The Four Masters of Wumen", also known as the "Four Masters of Tianmen". Shen, Wen, and Tang not only won with paintings, but also with poems and inscriptions, as far as the painting grid is concerned, Tang and Qiu are close to each other, and Qiu Ying is generally only inscribed on his paintings.
"You take a look first, I've come back and let people see it, it should be genuine. Huang Shiquan said to Yang Fan and He Tan.
He Tan glanced at Yang Fan, the meaning was obvious, he didn't understand these appraisals, so he looked at Yang Fan.
Yang Fan nodded, put on the gloves prepared by Huang Shiquan, and unfolded the scroll, which was indeed a picture of a lady. He did not immediately look at it with a clear eye, but carefully observed and analyzed.
Qiu Ying is good at figure painting, especially the ladies and gentlemen, attaches great importance to the portrayal and depiction of historical themes, absorbs the techniques of Ma Hezhi and the Yuan people of the Southern Song Dynasty, and has strong pen strength, especially good at copying.
Yang Fan knew that this famous painter of the Ming Dynasty was very good at white drawing, which can be described as a must.
After observing the half-ring, I found that the style of this painting is very close to Qiu Ying's painting style, but it always feels a bit deliberate. This made him pay attention, be cautious, and start from the pen, ink, paper, etc., and identify them one by one.
There is no problem with the paper, it is ancient paper from the Ming and Qing dynasties, and as for the new paper framed outside, it does not count.
To identify the authenticity of ancient paintings, paper is often the first thing everyone pays attention to, and it is also one aspect of the efforts of counterfeiters.
The common methods used to make new paintings and old ones are direct dyeing and fumigation.
The so-called direct dyeing method is to put the good painting on the glass plane, and use a row of brushes to repeatedly apply the overnight strong tea on the painting, so that the tea color is completely hung on the rice paper.
On this basis, the diluted vinegar is sprayed on top so that the color is evenly absorbed by the drawing paper. After a week of staining, the color of the paper turns yellow, and after a period of time, the color of the paper is slightly gray in the yellow. It looks like old paper.
The fumigation method means that after the things are ready, the counterfeiter will hang the calligraphy and paintings in a relatively closed room and smoke them with the smoke coming out of the burning coconut shell or incense. After many days of smoking, the paper will take on a light brown color.
Of course, this is the simplest and most commonly used technique. At present, science and technology are so developed, and the means of counterfeiting are becoming more and more scientific and powerful, and experts are likely to be eye-catching.
However, there seems to be something wrong with the pen and ink, and it turns out to be new ink, as long as you smell it carefully, you will know.
Subsequently, Yang Fan used the Ming Eye Charm to check, and as expected. The paper is ancient paper, and the counterfeiter is quite a bit conscientious and self-aware.
However, the picture is made by using high-tech equipment to imitate a real painting, and if you don't pay attention to the ink, few people can distinguish the real from the fake.
"How is it?" He Tan couldn't help but ask when he saw Yang Fan looking at it for so long.
Yang Fan shook his head slightly: "I can't see it very accurately." ”
As soon as these words came out, it meant that he felt that the painting was not real. Generally speaking, even if you see that it is a fake, you can't say it too directly, this is the Chinese, this is the subtle beauty, and it will not make people too embarrassed.
Huang Shiquan's face changed slightly, and he actually had a little doubt about Yang Fan's identification ability in his heart.
"In fact, from the style of painting, paper, etc., this painting can be fake. However, his shortcomings are also obvious. As long as those who understand ink smell it, they will know that it is new ink. Yang Fan continued.
He Tan frowned slightly, he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Huang Shiquan dialed out a phone call: "Mr. Chen, please come over." ”
In fact, in the final analysis, there is still not enough trust in Yang Fan's ability, although this young man is a disciple of Jia Lao, he is really too young.
Mr. Chen is a very powerful palm eye for him, and he has helped a lot abroad. Mr. Chen hadn't seen this painting, so he asked him to come over and have it appraised.
In this regard, He Tan and Yang Fan didn't say anything, knowing that this guy must be unhappy in his heart. This unhappiness is not directed at the two of them.
