The author of this painting, Lang Shining, was originally an Italian who became Qianlong's court painter, and Lang Shining painted in the court and won many honors, not only surpassing other European missionary painters, but also many Chinese painters who worshiped the court.

He is best known for his painting "Hundred Horses", which is even considered one of the top ten famous paintings in China.

Lang Shining's paintings bring together the characteristics of oil painting and Chinese painting, and have their own special features, which Westerners do not like very much, but Chinese like it very much, especially Qianlong.

Zhang Tianyuan is also very interested in Lang Shining, and he naturally likes his paintings.

But if you really want to talk about it, what interests Zhang Tianyuan the most is actually the Tang copy of Gu Kaizhi's "Female History Scroll" in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which is a tangled thing for Zhang Tianyuan.

There are two silk copies of the "Female Historical Atlas", one is now in the collection of the Palace Museum, and experts believe that it is a copy of the Southern Song Dynasty and has poor artistry, and the other is more artistic, which can better reflect Gu Kaizhi's painting style and the original appearance of the "Female Historical Atlas", and experts believe that it may be a copy of the Tang Dynasty and is collected by the British Museum.

In 1900, when the Eight-Nation Allied Forces burned the Summer Palace, Tang Ben's "Female Historian" was stolen to Britain by British Captain Ji Yongsong, and later stored in the British Museum. However, not many people have seen this thing, and I am afraid that no one knows that this painting actually belongs to the Brotherhood, and the descendants of the British Captain Ji Yongsong are also members of the Brotherhood.

Here, the "Female Historian" is 24.8 centimeters high and 348.2 centimeters long, scrolling horizontally. There were originally 12 paragraphs, but due to their age, only 9 paragraphs remained in the existing "Female History Atlas".

A facsimile of the Tang Dynasty of the Female Historian. Shen Yun is closest to Gu Kaizhi's original painting, so it is regarded as a classic copy by later generations. It has been collected by many literati and artists. On the screen, you can see the inscription of Xiang Zijing, the "seal of Hongwen" of the Tang Hongwen Museum. There are also 11 lines of words and sentences in the Song Huizong Zhao Ji thin gold book "Female History Zhen".

The painting itself and the mounted part are pressed with the seals of the Song, Jin, Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as the private connoisseurship seals of collectors in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Unfortunately, in order to reduce the number of open books, the British Museum cut the "Female Historian" into two pieces and hung it on a board. Since the "Female Historian" is more suitable for flat placement rather than hanging, there has been a situation of slag falling.

In addition, due to the lack of relevant knowledge, like a large number of other paintings and calligraphy, the "Female Historian Atlas" was replaced by Japanese-style mounting when it was remounted. As a result, the inscriptions left by the literati in the Ming and Qing dynasties were brutally and ruthlessly cut, forming a historical fault.

The British Museum's framing of the "Female Historian" is called a "Japanese-style folding screen technique". About 100 years since it entered the British Museum, the "Female Historian Portrait", which uses the "Japanese-style folding screen technique", can already see obvious "symptoms" of cracking and powdering. Art historians and cultural relics conservationists at home and abroad basically have a negative attitude towards this, and they all regret that the cultural relics have been harmed.

This practice of framing and preserving ancient paintings and calligraphy is not found in Chinese museums. The practice of dividing ancient Chinese paintings and calligraphy into several parts and mounting them on wooden panels is impossible to do in the Shangpu Museum, the Imperial Palace Museum, or the Taibei Palace Museum.

The British Museum's "Female Historian", the British have adapted this work according to the Western form. Follow the method of dealing with oil paintings. Cut off this "Female Historian" paragraph by paragraph.

In the past, when Zhang Tianyuan heard this, he couldn't help but scold "Wang Balamb", which was simply a waste of things.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, who kept saying that the West protected Chinese cultural relics better?

Is this also protection? The waste of red fruits!

Gu Kaizhi's "Female History Atlas" takes daily life as the theme, and the brushwork is like spring silkworm spinning. It has both form and spirit.

The gossamer technique he uses makes the picture elegant, tranquil, bright and lively. The lines in the picture are cyclical and graceful. Even and graceful, the characters are sprinkled. The image is vivid. The women's dresses with wide hems are slender and elegant, and each one is equipped with streamers of different shapes and bright colors, showing a fluttering and graceful and luxurious style.

As for this person, there is no need to say more, Gu Kaizhi estimates that as long as anyone who has studied should have heard of it.

In addition to this painting, the rest of the paintings, as well as the paintings of the four Ming families, also have a large number of precious porcelain.

And the most important thing is that these things are not all, or even just the tip of the iceberg, in the collection of the Brotherhood, I don't know how many such good things there are, Zhang Tianyuan really wants to snatch them all back, and then put them in his private museum to show off, so as not to continue to be ruined by these foreign devils.

If "The Female Historian" has surprised Zhang Tianyuan enough, then "Luo Shen Futu" has made him even more dumbfounded.

There are many domestic collector versions of this picture, but the earliest is only a copy of the Song Dynasty, but the "Luo Shen Futu" in this email is a copy of the Tang Dynasty, which has not been a copy in China, which can not but be regretted.

"In any case, I have to take these things down, I have twenty-eight paintings of Picasso, so I have to get back at least two hundred and eighty good things!

Zhang Tianyuan has already made up his mind to open his mouth, these things are left abroad, it is simply a violent thing, these foreign devils not only will not appreciate it, but also will not maintain it, and they must not be allowed to suffer here.

His current mood is like that of a mother who sees her abducted child living a miserable life, and she is not happy at all, so she has to bring this child home no matter what.

If he didn't let these foreign devils bleed this time, he Zhang Tianyuan would really come to Europe for nothing.

You know, these paintings are different from porcelain, porcelain, even if it is Yuan blue and white, no matter how rare it is, there are also such paintings, but such paintings are the only ones, "The Female History of Zhentu" Tang people facsimile is a national treasure-level thing, since the country is not capable of getting this thing back, then he Zhang Tianyuan will get this thing home.

As for whether he wants to donate to the country in the future, he has to wait until he is old, at least he will not donate it now, after all, people are selfish, and he wants to keep it for himself.

In addition, when it came to Yuan Qinghua just now, he also noticed that there was a shadow of Yuan Qinghua in the photos of those emails, but it seems that Helis is not very interested in these Yuan Qinghua, and when he took pictures, he passed by in a flash, but Zhang Tianyuan's character appreciation tips could help him see clearly.

He was a little anxious now, he thought that his twenty-eight Picasso paintings were already a lot, but when he saw so many good things, he suddenly felt that he had too few things at hand, and whether he should continue to go around Europe more and get more things of this grade to exchange with the brotherhood.

In good conscience, even if Zhang Tianyuan was asked to exchange 28 oil paintings for that "Female History Map", he would be absolutely willing.

However, Zhang Tianyuan is not stupid, he pumped himself in the mouth to calm himself down, now is not the time to be excited.

There are so many good things, none of them may be lost to "The Female History of Zhentu", as if they are all your children, can you bear to let only one come back? Of course, the more you can bring back, the better.

"Brother Zhang, why did you slap yourself?" Blue Phoenix asked with a puzzled glance at Zhang Tianyuan.

"It's okay, I feel cheap, so I take a sip to make myself sober. Zhang Tianyuan said: "By the way, Mengmeng, how long is there to get on the plane, I want to make a satellite phone call and contact Mr. Li Mingguang, there are some things, I think I have to discuss with him." ”

"It's here, get out of the car, you're really attentive. Liu Mengxun smiled bitterly and said.

It turned out that the car had stopped a long time ago, but Liu Mengxun didn't call him in order not to disturb Zhang Tianyuan thinking about the problem.

Zhang Tianyuan scratched his head in embarrassment, then got out of the car, got on the plane in a hurry, and directly dialed the phone number of Li Mingguang in China, and now he feels that this matter is a little impossible to solve by himself.

In fact, he was also worried, what if the lion opened his mouth and Helis did not agree to the exchange?

However, it would be a great loss if you wanted less, after all, it is not easy to get 28 Picasso paintings, so it is worth striking a balance in between.

When Li Mingguang heard that Zhang Tianyuan actually got twenty-eight oil paintings of Picasso, he thought that Zhang Tianyuan was joking, and then Zhang Tianyuan said that he would exchange oil paintings for national treasures, and he gradually became stricter, thinking that this matter could not be fake, and Zhang Tianyuan would not joke with him about this matter.

"Teacher, do you know? The Tang Dynasty copy of "The Female History of the Princess"! There is also the "Luo Shen Futu", which is also a copy of the Tang Dynasty! By the way, there is also the "Portrait of the Qianlong Emperor and the Eleventh Concubine", this is the authentic work of Lang Shining and his disciples. That's right, there are also 45 volumes of "Yongle Canon", teacher, you have been talking about what you want, and you actually have it. Well, I forgot to mention it, and ......"

When Zhang Tianyuan was talking to Li Mingguang on the phone, he couldn't hold back his excitement anymore, he was like a fanatical collector, and he was actually standing the whole time when he was on the phone, and his voice was very loud.

Fortunately, the phone room is equipped with the best soundproofing equipment, otherwise everyone outside would have heard it.

"Teacher, are you listening, teacher, why don't you speak?"

"I'm listening, I'm listening. ”

"Teacher, why do you seem to be crying?"

"I didn't cry, I just got sand in my eyes. Li Mingguang was in tears in front of the phone at this time, how many years, he was more than willing but not enough, and now, the national treasure is really going home.

He never dreamed that he would be able to touch these things with his own hands in his lifetime.

I've seen it in museums before, but how can it compare to taking it in my hand and appreciating it carefully. (To be continued......)
