Specifically, there are mainly two kinds of paper and silk, in addition to some relatively cold materials, such as various leather, wood, metal foil and so on.

Compared with the Ming Dynasty, the materials used in calligraphy and painting in the Qing Dynasty have developed greater, and new products continue to come out. Paper, silk and other materials played a great role in the prosperity of the art of calligraphy and painting in the Qing Dynasty.

Taking paper as an example, the illuminated paper that appeared in the late Ming Dynasty was widely used in the early Qing Dynasty. The paper color is yellow, yellow with red, and it will not deteriorate for a long time. Although there was still gold paper in the late Qing Dynasty, the color had become light yellow, losing the characteristics of red yellow, and the color would turn black after encountering damp mildew. This type of gold paper is also a type of so-called fake gold paper.

During the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, powder paper and wax paper appeared. The chalk paper is dull, and various patterns are painted on it; The paper is shiny and comes in a variety of colors, some with patterns and some without. This kind of paper is not easy to ink, and it should be slightly polished when used; The seal can't be stamped, so it can only be cut and pasted. The great calligraphers of the Qing Dynasty, such as Liu Yong, Huang Yi and Liang Tongshu, often used chalk paper and wax paper to write.

In the Qing Dynasty, there was also a kind of semi-cooked paper, which was relatively rare, the very thin one was called "cicada wing paper", and the thick one was called twill paper. There is a kind of Japanese paper from Jiaqing to Guangxu, and Wu Datong likes to use this paper to paint. When Daoguang to Xianfeng, there is also a kind of Xubaizhai paper sprinkled with fine small gold sheets, and there is a "Xubaizhai" seal on the corner of the paper, and some gold pieces have now turned black.

When it comes to silk, the most common thing in the Qing Dynasty is the very rough library silk, which is made of various colors of powder, some of which are plain, and some of which are painted with various gold flowers or pink flowers, or sprinkled with gold flakes and gold stars. This kind of library silk is often used to write notes and word pairs.

After arriving in Jiaqing, the quality of the silk decreased significantly, the texture was thin, and people mostly used stones to roll it into flat wires, in order not to appear particularly thin from the surface. This kind of coarse silk is also often added with various colors of pulp, painting flowers and sprinkled with gold, etc., or on the white silk to increase the glue alum and then polish, but writing or painting on it is impermeable.

The antique painting "Suzhou Piece" of the Qing Dynasty used fine silk and coarse silk, so there was a huge gap between the level and the level. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, silk was produced in all parts of the south, and some people used these coarse and thin silk to imitate the works of everyone in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, which were easy to identify.

However, this huge painting uses the tribute silk produced during the Kangxi period, on which gold and silver stars are scattered, but because of the relationship between storage time and environment, these originally dazzling stars have become dark spots.

This kind of specially processed cooked silk is different from the warehouse silk in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. The middle part is dyed with a color paste to make the unique yellow of the court, and the surrounding is painted with auspicious clouds, during which the ten dragons are coiled and surrounded, mighty and vigorous, and it looks magnificent and magnificent.

The poetry hall is a light chestnut paper with a blue gold depiction of the sea water and a cloud dragon pattern, and there is a seal text "imperial book" on the sun wheel of the central dragon Gaoqing. The word cloud on both sides of the word "壬" follows the artistic style of the court decoration of the Jiajing Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty.

But I don't know why, on this painting, these complicated places are gone, so Wu Chen didn't think of it, after all, he is rare to pay tribute to silk, let alone get started, it is really difficult to connect with what is seen in the album with only a few words of written records.

In the album he has seen, the tribute silk is much more beautiful than this, especially the dragon pattern painted on it, showing a new image of the Kangxi period: the dragon's horns are tall and straight, the dragon's whiskers are long and curved, the dragon's beard is like jagged, and the dragon's lower jaw is longer than the upper jaw, which has distinctive characteristics of the times.

Many things, sometimes they are actually separated by a layer of tulle, after Liu Lao's "pointing", Wu Chen and Xu Shaodong looked at it again, and gradually felt something.

Xu Lei listened to what they said, she was not interested, pouted, and pretended to look at it for a while, it was completely different from the map she usually saw, there was no division of administrative regions, only mountains, rivers, cities and geographical maps, which looked weird.

"This map is so crudely drawn!"

"Hehe, if you want to compare with the present, it is naturally incomparable, but back then, this was an epoch-making event!"

Liu Lao responded to the little girl, while moving to look at the map, in his eyes, and the little girl's feelings are very different, this map, mountains, passes, cities, houses, rolling mountains, clouds, mountains and fog, majestic cities, all are real scenes! Although the traditional Chinese characters above are a little vague, in the eyes of Liu Lao's generation, they will not feel difficult at all.

This power! This kung fu! This majestic spirit! It doesn't look like a copy.

In a short period of time, the thoughts in Liu Lao's mind have quietly changed unconsciously.

"Hey, it's boring, Brother Tie, let's go out for a walk."

Although Xu Lei tried her best to pretend to be well-behaved, she couldn't help but this painting was too big, and she didn't know when she would get it after looking at it one by one!

Tie Zhongtang has been following Liu Lao for a long time, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, he can be regarded as having some skills in antiques, not to mention that he has long been accustomed to standing next to Liu Lao, and he will not feel bored. However, he also liked Xu Lei, a little girl, very much, and when he saw her boring appearance, he glanced at Liu Lao and asked for instructions, but Liu Lao was full of thoughts on the giant painting paper, and he didn't notice his eyes at all.

"Let's go, let's go." Xu Lei couldn't help but say, and pulled the iron boss and walked out, although there was nothing fun outside, but it was better than watching a few people here hold their breath and get bored.

"Come, move again." Liu Lao looked on his back and pondered for a while, then stood up tremblingly. Wu Chen and Xu Shaodong hurriedly supported him left and right, feeling that his body was trembling slightly, he had been squatting for a long time, his legs were not good for qi and blood, and it was easy to faint.

"You should sit down first, you have seen it all, you don't need to look at it one by one." Xu Shaodong moved a stool over and sat down for the old man, while he and Wu Chen moved the painting again, showing the few remaining places.

This painting is actually not complete, but it is shocking enough, the southern end reaches the South Sea, the north not only contains Mongolia, but also part of Siberia, and the east is separated by the sea, that is, the west is only a little past Xi'an, about only to Tianshui, Hanzhong, and then it was intercepted.

"If this is an imitation, it is really a bloody investment." Xu Shaodong has only heard of the "Imperial Opinion Panorama", which is historically verifiable, although there is a dispute about its compiler, but there is no doubt that the real thing is hidden in the palace.

But this pair is a little strange, even the name is missing a word, he will not think that it is fake, as he said, if this is imitation, then it can be said that it is bloody, in this case, how can he make such a mentally retarded mistake, the name is wrong.
