Chapter 608: Pure and Direct Reason
PS: The third update, is there still a monthly pass, continue to ask for support.
The true grass thousand-character text is the representative work of the monk Zhiyong, and it is also a famous monument left in the history of calligraphy in our country. It is said that in order to promote Buddhism, the monk Zhiyong once wrote more than 800 thousand-character texts and scattered them in the world, and each of the temples in Jiangdong gave one copy.
However, it is a pity that due to the age and improper storage, most of the cursive thousand-character script has been lost. By the time of the Northern Song Dynasty, only the remaining seven or eight books had been collected in the palace.
It may be that it is not easy to keep the authentic handiwork, but Song Huizong, the emperor who loves to dance and ink the most, simply wrote a painting by himself, and then this version of the cursive thousand-character text has become one of the top ten famous Chinese posters.
Of course, in addition to the cursive thousand-character script of two more famous figures, there are also many works by famous artists. Not to mention the far-reaching, the closest is the mid-70s, Mr. Qi Gong spent seven days to create the real grass thousand-character text.
In addition, there are various versions of the cursive thousand-character text without much mention, anyway, this work can make Tao Lao cherish the collection so much, it must not be an ordinary anonymous work, most likely from the hands of famous artists.
At this time, Wang Guan carefully looked at the work, and saw that the words on the scroll were relatively elegant and strange, unlike some cursive works that had to make the pages of the paper dripping with ink, as if not doing so would not be able to highlight the meaning of cursive writing being upside down.
Anyway, this cursive script gives people the impression that grass is grass, but the text is chic and refined, concise and simple, with a unique beauty and full of small and fresh atmosphere.
At first glance, Wang Guan didn't even pay attention to the pen, so he directly judged: "Yu Youren standard cursive." ”
Cursive still has standards, don't you think it's a little ridiculous?
However, this is true. In fact, since the birth of cursive writing, there is really no standard at all, and everyone writes their own, whether it is upside down. It's crazy or not, it's better to be chaotic, and it's okay to be ambiguous, anyway, as long as the words you write are in line with everyone's aesthetics, it's a good work.
However, during the Republic of China, Mr. Yu Youren, a great calligrapher at that time, felt that Chinese characters were too difficult to recognize and difficult to write, so in order to seek the convenience of production, he did his best to fulfill the function of culture. Save the time of all the people, give full play to the traditional weapon of the whole clan, so take the strength of hundreds of cursive scripts and create standard cursive.
Therefore, after years of research, Mr. Yu Youren absorbed the strengths of the masters of calligraphy in the past dynasties, and summarized the orderly, easy to read, easy to write, accurate and beautiful cursive method, and finally created the standard cursive.
The book caused a sensation immediately after it was written, and it became the most popular introductory textbook for beginners to copy, and it was the best way to learn cursive. It has also become a new peak in the history of cursive development. It is a new milestone in the history of the development of Chinese calligraphy art. It is for this reason that Mr. Yu Youren also has the reputation of a contemporary grass saint.
Since the standard cursive font is relatively standardized, Wang Guan is naturally easy to identify.
Of course, it's standard cursive. But whose work it is also needs to be carefully identified. After all, Mr. Yu Youren began to study cursive in the past dynasties in 29, and founded a cursive monthly magazine in 32, and then standard cursive came out. More than half a century has passed. During this time, it was not surprising that someone created calligraphy works according to standard cursive.
Meanwhile. Tao Lao smiled and asked, "Young man, how is this calligraphy?" ”
"Good!"
Wang Guan first affirmed that a calligraphy work is actually similar to a picture, not only to see the details of each character, but also to pay attention to the entire layout. Only the font of the whole work is dense and the pen and ink are natural, which will give people a sense of beauty and can be called a masterpiece.
Obviously, the scroll in front of me has reached this standard, and the other thing is to look at the pen and seal. If it is a celebrity work, then the price must be very high, and if the author is not famous, then the price is naturally much lower.
There is no way, this is the market, and it is also the law of the market. In fact, celebrity works, to put it bluntly, are also a kind of brand, people buy the brand, feel that there is quality assurance, more appreciation, and the price will definitely continue to rise.
It's far away, let's get down to business. At this time, Wang Guancai looked at the pen in the lower left, and saw that there were two characters on the right, as well as a red clay and white text seal.
"As expected......"
Seeing this situation, Wang Guan was not much surprised. After all, he had such an idea at the beginning. If it weren't for a masterpiece, I'm afraid Tao Lao wouldn't have paid so much attention to cherishing it.
"What do you think?" Tao Lao continued to ask: "Some people say that this is a copy, because these fonts are slightly different from the standard cursive script. ”
"This is the real thing about the bearded man." Wang Guan affirmed that the most maverick thing about Mr. Yu Youren is that he has a big beard, so he has the nickname of Bearded Weng.
"Of course, it's normal to have differences."
Wang Guan smiled and explained: "After all, Mr. Yu Youren collected the chapters of ancient and modern cursive script, and explored and practiced little by little, and then created a standard cursive. It was a process of continuous accumulation and change, and it was also changed several times during the period, and finally it was determined and became the standard cursive script we see now. This poster is clearly the work of this process. ”
"Haha, that's so right." Tao Lao thought so.
Wang Guan smiled and said in a deep voice: "In addition, this thousand-character text post should be the work of the right old man." ”
"How?" Tao Lao's eyes lit up.
"Mr. Yu Youren's calligraphy is majestic and graceful, diluting the strange. Especially in his later years, his cursive writing has entered the realm of supernatural and superb, which is really dangerous and has no similarity. Wang Guan slowly commented: "Under his pen, the cursive script melts the chapter grass, the grass and the wild grass in one furnace, sometimes in a stable and elongated shape, sometimes in a dangerous situation, giving people a sense of manners." ”
"However, it is clear that this scroll is not a work created with great care in his later years, because some of the fonts are too regular."
Wang Guan said with a smile: "Sometimes the world is so wonderful, it stands to reason that the font rules, then it should be created with heart." But the truth is just the opposite, for cursive, it is very arbitrary, which meets the aesthetic standards of cursive, so the more rules it is, it means that you have not created with your heart. ”
"In addition, you need to know that the right old man learned Zhao Mengfu in his early years, and later changed to attack the North Monument and studied the Six Dynasties Tablet Edition. And then on this basis, the seal, subordinate, and grass law into the line, a unique way. It was not until middle age that he began to change the law, specializing in cursive writing, participating in the Wei tablet penmanship, and becoming a family of his own. Wang Guan explained: "That is to say, before the cursive script was not completed, the right old man wrote very regular lines. ”
But on the font of this cursive work, there are traces of the line, which is enough to show that this work is just a work of the right old man to practice the pen casually. Maybe after he finished writing, he didn't know which of his friends saw it, so he grabbed it and asked the right old man to add the pen and seal, so that he had this scroll. ”
Wang Guan was thoughtful and made a bold guess.
"The afterlife is terrifying." For a moment, Tao Lao couldn't help but sigh: "Fortunately, you weren't there when I found this scroll, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to snatch you." ”
"Tao Lao has won the award." Wang Guan humbly waved his hand and said: "This is purely an afterthought, and in the case of confirming the authenticity, I will just do a reverse reversal." ”
"It's not that simple." Tao Lao shook his head and said: "There are not many people who know how to appreciate cursive writing, let alone be able to see the traces of cursive writing. Xiaoyu also studied calligraphy and painting with me for a few years in the early years, and if you let her appreciate it now, I guess I can't tell you why. ”
"Teacher, don't wait to be so shocking."
At the same time, Qiao Yu complained, and then pouted: "I can still do it, at least I know the difference between Zhang Cao, Jin Cao, Wild Grass and Standard Cursive, it must be better than some people." ”
When talking about certain people, Qiao Yu glanced at Han Lang intentionally or unintentionally, which naturally made it clear to everyone who she was talking about.
In this regard, if Han Lang is the protagonist of this book, at such a time, he will definitely explode in the small universe and do something that will impress everyone present. But it's a pity that the protagonist is not him, so he feels very depressed, and he can't wait to yell loudly in order to vent the unhappiness in his heart.
Han Lang naturally has reason not to be angry, if the topic is talking about finance, stocks, IT, or even real estate, he can talk for three or five hours without stopping, but now he is talking about calligraphy and painting, which is obviously deliberately bullying people. You must know that there is a specialization in the art industry, and a few people are talking about things that he doesn't know at all, what else can he do besides keep silent?
Of course, in order to maintain a good demeanor, even if he had a sullen stomach, Han Lang would definitely not show it, and even had a warm smile on his face, as if he didn't know that Qiao Yu was mocking himself.
Immediately, Han Lang's mobile phone rang suddenly, he took it out and looked at it, then signaled to everyone, stood up and walked away a few steps to answer. After chatting a little, he hung up his phone and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry all of a sudden......"
Before he finished speaking, Qiao Yu said decisively: "Okay, you go first, don't send it." ”
"Then I'll say goodbye." Han Lang smiled awkwardly and left here quickly, and the moment he left the suite and closed the door, he inevitably felt frustrated in his heart. It's not that he doesn't work hard, but people don't give him a chance at all, so what should he do?
However, no one knew Han Lang's frustrated mood, anyway, the moment he left, Qiao Yu jumped up and cheered directly: "Great, the annoying guy is finally gone." ”
"Don't be happy too early, people just have to deal with it in advance, or find an excuse to go out, not to leave Jinyang." Bayeux kindly reminded: "Maybe it's on the way back to your house now." ”
"This girl's attitude is so obvious, if he still has a little self-esteem, he should know that he has retreated." Qiao Yu snorted: "If you don't leave like this, it will make me look down on him even more." ”
"Little Joe."
At this time, Tao Lao said a fair word: "Actually, this person feels pretty good, at least he can calm down, why not give him a chance?" ”
"I hate other people's arrangements for me, I like to find it myself, he just hit the muzzle, no matter how good it is, I don't like ......it," Qiao Yu said, for purely and direct reasons, and it is also her character. (To be continued.) )
