Chapter Eighty-Three: Crane Painting

Although he is new to the antique shop, Liu Dong has also heard a lot about the famous Xuande furnace, but when it comes to the identification of Xuande furnace, he is really too far behind. Not to mention anything else, there are four types of bottom money of this Xuande furnace: "Xuande", "Xuande", "Xuande Year", and "Xuande Year". Other common or uncommon such as Zhaitang paragraphs, private names, there are countless more, some people summarize as many as 116 kinds, without a long period of accumulation and practice, it is impossible to do Xuande furnace identification. Liu Dong is naturally no exception.

However, compared to ordinary people, although he can only be regarded as a newcomer to the antique business, he has an ability that is unique in the world. After secretly moving in his heart, his eyebrows jumped slightly, and soon a handful of white spiritual light that was not too strong rose from the brown Xuande furnace in his hand, and a line of words appeared above the yellow orb in the mustard seed space at the same time, 'Qing Dynasty Xianfeng Jade Chime Hall imitates the Ming Dynasty Xuande furnace'.

Liu Dong has never heard of the 'Jade Chime Hall', but since the Xuande furnace came out, for hundreds of years, whether it is the royal family or the people, the action of imitating the Xuande furnace has never stopped. Unless there are occasional masterpieces of famous artists and royal families of various dynasties, a large number of other handicraft workshops that imitate Xuande furnace have long been wiped out in the long river of history.

"What, Brother Liu also likes this stove?" After a pause, he continued, "That's right, 'Red Sleeves Fragrance Reading at Night', what man wouldn't like it?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Dong smiled, "Brother Wang is funny, but it's a pity that this stove is missing a cover, otherwise it will be really as Brother Wang said, there is a bit of 'red sleeves and fragrance'." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of Wang Qiang, a peerless appearance. However, although the relationship between the two is much closer than before, there is a long distance between boyfriend and girlfriend. Therefore, even if you want Wang Qiang, the 'red sleeve', to add fragrance to him, it is not something that can be achieved now.

Therefore, after Liu Dong shook his head secretly, he put the imitation Xuande furnace back up.

After looking at the two pieces, Liu Dong didn't want to look at them anymore. After all, this is not his home, and it is impossible to let Wang Haitao, the leader of the Black Tiger Gang, accompany him to watch antiques here all the time.

Thinking of this, Liu Dong's heart moved, and immediately all the antiques and cultural relics on the iron frame in front of him were shrouded in the aura released from his eyebrows.

"Huh?" In his eyes, these antiques released a thick or faint white aura, which was not surprising to Liu Dong, but what surprised him in his heart was that a red light like a flame suppressed all the white light in front of him. This is the first time he has seen this situation.

You must know that all the antiques he has come into contact with before, no matter the shade, are almost white, and now it is the first time he has seen an antique that can have such a strong red aura, and from the intensity of the aura, it is almost a little stronger than Tang Yin's "Spring Mountain Companion Picture" and Wang Shuyuan's octagonal relics pagoda in the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, the curiosity in Liu Dong's heart also became extremely strong.

At that moment, he bent down and took out a roll of things rolled together like a rag in the lower right corner of the iron shelf, which was also the lowest place.

"Brother Liu, forget those things, they are not worth anything at all!" Seeing Liu Dong's movements, Wang Haitao, who was standing on the side, hurriedly said. Generally, the bottom is basically damaged, and you can't see the worthless things in the calendar.

"It's okay, I'm just looking!" After gently patting the dust on the linen, Liu Dong squatted on the ground, pressed the side of the linen, and slowly stretched out.

It can be seen that the time of this linen cloth should not be short, and the moth-eaten and damaged process is very strict, but soon a slightly dull yellow appeared in his eyes, which made Liu Dong's heart for a while.

"This should be Juan!" Looking at the center of the linen exposed, although it has turned yellow, but the smooth and delicate texture of the fabric can still be seen, Liu Dong secretly guessed in his heart.

Silk silk is a general term for ancient silk fabrics, and has been used as an important writing and painting material before there was no paper. However, although China invented paper by Cai Lun as early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, the mature application of rice paper in the field of painting began in the Tang Dynasty, such as the 'Chengxintang' rice paper, which is famous in history and respected by literati in all dynasties, is the masterpiece of the famous Southern Tang Dynasty master Li Yu. And with the characteristics of 'skin like an egg membrane, as clean as jade, thin and smooth'.

However, in the Tang and Song dynasties, although rice paper had appeared, silk was still the main force in the field of painting, and it was not until the Ming and Qing dynasties that relatively cheap rice paper really replaced expensive silk and was widely used.

With the burlap roll in his hand slowly unfolded little by little, more and more bright yellow juan faces were exposed, and suddenly a winged crane flew more and more, and the crane with black claws, black tail, white wings and red top suddenly appeared in his eyes, the white crane in the picture had smooth lines, and the eyes of a few strokes revealed the sharpness, although the whole white crane did not have much pen and ink, but the demeanor and action of the white crane taking off were very expressive, just like to live.

Seeing this white crane, Liu Dong shook his right hand, and couldn't help but feel a deep admiration in his heart. Although he had not studied Chinese painting before, when he was doing carving, he had to have a good sketch foundation in the design sketches, so he could still see some ways to appreciate Chinese painting alone.

Although only a white crane is seen in this painting for the time being, it can also be seen that the author of this painting must be an outstanding master of Chinese painting.

Thinking of this, Liu Dong's desire to see it became heavier, and he immediately used his right hand to spread out the entire painting against the cement floor of the storeroom. Fortunately, there are few people here, there is not much dust on the ground, and there is no long table for viewing paintings here, otherwise Liu Dong would never have put it on the ground like he is now after seeing the contents inside.

After the whole painting is unfolded, its whole picture also falls into Liu Dong's eyes, plus the damaged linen cloth mounted outside, the length of the whole painting should be about 1.5 meters, the width is about 0.75 meters, ink and color on silk, the bright yellow canvas is either flying or lying, painting five white cranes with different postures.

The feet of the white crane are drawn with a few brushstrokes, reflecting the tall mountains and rivers in the distance, and the space of the whole painting immediately opens up, reflecting the agility of the crane.

Seeing this, Liu Dong also breathed a sigh of relief, although the outer linen mounting has been very damaged, but in addition to the fact that the painting heart may be too long, there are many blue-gray mildew spots, but there is no damage, which is a blessing in misfortune.

But then after looking at the whole painting again, Liu Dong couldn't help frowning, looking at this painting, he always felt a little weird, because this painting was too full. Generally, after the painter finishes painting, there is a certain amount of blank space around the painting, in addition to the composition considerations, it can also be stamped and withdrawn by the author. Generally speaking, when the painting is pasted, these blank spaces should be left out. But looking at this one, there is no white space at all on the top, bottom, left and right, and the whole painting is framed in the surrounding linen. This is simply unreasonable.

In addition, such a wonderful painting, it is actually a piece of torn linen, just like the original red flower with green leaves, but now there are no green leaves, and even inserted in cow dung, which is really regrettable and makes people feel weird.

Moreover, such a brilliant painting, but not even a promotion, even in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, as well as the Sui and Tang dynasties, painting promotion is not popular, but such a good painting is promoted, or there is no knowledge, this is no matter what.

"I see!" When Liu Dong once again used the ability of his eyebrows to look at the whole painting, he couldn't help but feel strong joy and possessiveness while understanding it in his heart.

However, he hadn't forgotten that there was a black tiger gang leader standing beside him with vicious eyes and rich experience, so the look of joy on his face didn't show much.

"Brother Wang, this painting is not bad, but it's a pity that I'm only a shallow learner, and I can't see which dynasty or painter's work it is!" Liu Dong slowly rolled up the whole painting again and said with a calm expression.

"Hehe, Brother Liu doesn't have to be presumptuous, when I first got this painting, I also looked for someone to see it, but unfortunately I didn't find its source. Later, seeing that it was an ancient painting, the years should not be too short, but it was a pity to throw it away, so it stayed here. Wang Haitao said with a smile.
