Chapter 421: Private Tasting Session III
In front of her is a statue of Guanyin, made of gold and bronze, not like the ordinary statue of Guanyin, she sits on the rockery, her demeanor is serene, the shape is beautiful and natural, the crown is crowned with a flower crown, the crown money is in the middle of the Buddha, the head is slightly low, the right leg is raised, the left leg naturally hangs down, the right side is a Jingping, behind is a circular backlight, on the outer edge, there is enough to decorate a flame, the quality is preserved excellently.
This shape of Guanyin is like Xia Li, which has been seen in some history books before, and is called Water Moon Guanyin.
Xia Li picked up the statue of Guanyin with both hands, carefully looked at the bottom of the seat, and took a deep breath.
There is a round badge about the size of a copper coin on the base, and the pattern is very peculiar, but Xia Li has seen it in her previous life, this Water Moon Guanyin was received by her pawnshop, and was later invited by a noble person to worship it in the largest royal temple in the capital.
Why Xia Li remembers it so clearly, it is because of this special badge, in her time, there was a famous sculptor, who used this special badge as a mark, the badge is round, the top is a crescent moon, the bottom is a pool of lotus, and the word "fire" is written in the middle of the blank.
This word makes the master sculptor have many legends among the folk, because he himself never married, so everyone guesses that this word 'fire' represents the name of the person he loves.
Just when Xia Li was stunned, the time had come, and Professor Yang saw the student holding the Guanyin statue in a daze, and he didn't dare to shoot her, for fear that she would be frightened and drop something on the ground.
Here, Xia Li also reacted, put down the image in his hand, and quickly glanced at the last item, which was a bowl, and a fiery red rooster was painted on the bowl.
Xia Li just glanced at it and went down with Professor Yang.
After going down, Professor Yang took a sip of tea before asking in a low voice, "What were you doing in a daze just now?"
Xia Li leaned forward and whispered, "I look at the image a little strangely. ”
Professor Yang raised his eyebrows, that is a typical Xixia shape, what's strange, if there is really anything strange, it is the seal that belongs to the statue underground, really, she has seen a lot of Guanyin statues, similar to the five dynasties, Xixia, there is really no seal on the base, especially the small 'fire' word on the top, but in the form of pictographs.
At this time, there was no time to dwell on these, Professor Yang asked about the others: "What about the others, do you see the way?"
Xia Li thought for a while and said softly: "The first piece of gold wire, needless to say, you have talked about it many times, as for the truth and falsehood, I can't see it, the second Siyang Fangzun is also a strange object, you also know, the treasures are in the Forbidden City Museum, we also went to see it last week, and the Siyang Fangzun that came to the Forbidden City again is damaged, and the one in front of me is too well preserved, and the demeanor of the four sheep is one, eclectic, but it looks like someone imitated it in the later period, and the craftsmanship is not bad." The third piece, looking at the outside is a typical Western Zhou Dynasty water moon Guanyin statue, but the base, you can also see it, there is an extra seal, so there is some doubt about the age, and then the fourth piece, the student has no time to get started, just look at it from a distance, looking at the appearance, it is a bit of a Ming Chenghua Doucai Sanqiu Cup meaning, but the cup mouth is a little big, but it feels like the starting bowl in southern Fujian. ”
Hearing Xia Li say 'Beginner's Bowl', Professor Yang smiled all of a sudden, his eyes narrowed together: "Yes, if you can know the Beginner's Bowl, then what do you mean by talking about the Beginner's Bowl?"
Xia Li said with a smile: "In fact, the starting bowl is also called the rooster bowl, in southern Fujian and Guangdong, there is a strong and rich family must only have a rooster bowl to start the price, so in the early southern Fujian family, many bowls and spoons are painted with lifelike rooster images, but in general, they are black-tailed roosters, and the one shown here is indeed red with green hair, plus the wall of the bowl seems to be thin and transparent, it seems to be a little different from the starting bowl." ”
While Xia Li explained, Professor Yang kept nodding, and said with a smile at the end: "The explanation and analysis are good!"
Xia Li was still waiting for the following, but Professor Yang turned his head to look at the stage, and was stunned and didn't say a word, Xia Li had to look ahead.
The first set of objects opened the door, Xia Li knew it was true as soon as she got started, although the second Siyang Fangzun was not genuine, but it was also imitated later, and it was definitely the appearance of the Song Dynasty, and the craftsmanship was exquisite, the value was not low, the third piece needless to say, Xia Li felt like a mirror in her heart, this was not the Water Moon Guanyin produced in the Western Zhou Dynasty at all, but the one where she was, the one that disappeared from the He An Dynasty, of course, the people present did not know that such a dynasty had ever appeared.
Fourth, Xia Li didn't get started, but Jinbao is here, this product has been directly said for twenty years, what else is there to say, it is just a starting bowl, but the workmanship is more exquisite, and it looks a bit like a chicken bowl cup.
The big guys have finished reading it.,All of them are full of interest.,This time it's really interesting.,Said a batch of good things.,It's really good things.,But all of them feel a little bottomless.,Except for the first big open object.,Needless to say,It's genuine.,The next three are a little strange.。
So everyone gathered around in twos and threes to discuss, especially Professor Yang's side, there were a lot of people, but Professor Yang didn't say anything, just looked at everyone with a smile.
The old man here saw that the big guys had finished reading, so he walked on the stage and introduced it, the first one was a few simple words, and the second one he laughed mysteriously: "Yang Huizhi of the Tang Dynasty everyone knows, and Wu Daozi's colleague period, Wu Daozi is known as the painting saint, and Yang Huizhi is known as the carving saint, this Siyang Fangzun is his imitation of the portrait, compared to the real Shang and Zhou dynasties stored in the Forbidden City now, it also has its own characteristics, and it is well preserved, very collectible!"
There was an uproar around, and there was a lot of discussion, Yang Huizhi everyone knows, a very famous sculptor.
Next, Lao Man talked about the third item, his face couldn't help but become solemn, and Xia Li said, Lao Man also said that this object is the statue of Water Moon Guanyin in the Western Zhou Dynasty, but the seal of this base is a little strange.
Next is the fourth piece, Lao Man said with a smile: "I am willing to exchange this fourth object for an object, this is a study of everyone's eyesight, bet right, you take advantage, don't blame me for the loss!"
Everyone couldn't touch the fourth rooster bowl, and they all asked what to do with the first item, and a few connoisseurs planned to start.
