Chapter 816: Dotting the Cui's Head
Hearing someone behind him talking, Li Yi and Misa Aida turned around at the same time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Uncle Ota, are you back?"
"Yes, Miss Aitian, are you still satisfied with that emerald hairpin?"
"Of course satisfied! Not only am I satisfied, but Mr. Li Yi is also satisfied, but it's a pity that you don't have more here. ”
"Oh? Is this Mr. Li Yi? I just heard him say that he was willing to take out a handscroll of Lingchuan Shixuan to exchange some emerald jewelry, I don't know if it's true......"
Aida Misa didn't know how Li Yi could have a handscroll of Hishikawa Shixuan, you know, there are not many things in Japan, so he could only shrug his shoulders and look at Li Yi.
"Yes, Mr. Ota, I do have a handscroll of Lingchuan Shixuan here, and I am willing to exchange it for some real Chinese treasures."
Ota hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Li Yi, can I take a look at your handscroll first, you know ......"
Aida Misa glanced at Ota again, she just wanted to say that Li Yi had just come from Huaxia, and it was impossible to carry the handscroll of Lingchuan Shixuan with her, when she saw Li Yi smile slightly, and took out a box from the backpack that Gu Feng was carrying.
"Isn't this the handscroll I bought in Kant's shop? Oh buy ga! ”
Aida covered his mouth violently, oh my God, real or fake? The price of this handscroll was still told by her Li Yi, she remembered it very clearly, 12 million, and in the end, it was used as an addition to the Tang painting!
If this handscroll is really the work of Hishikawa Shixuan, then what a leak this should be!
But then, she began to suspect again, this handscroll has been with Mr. Kant for a long time, but why is it that no one in Japan knows it, and Li Yi recognizes it just by looking at it? He can't be mistaken, right?
Yes, there must be a mistake! Don't we know our own things, and we still want you to be a foreigner to pick up the leaks?
"This painting ......"
Although Ota didn't know the origin of Li Yi's handscroll, as soon as he saw the work, he quickly shook his head, although this painting is indeed a little similar to the style of Hishikawa Shixuan, but the level, it is really a little flattering. If the work of Master Hishikawa Shixuan is at the level of a professor, then this painting is at most the level of a college student, and even a graduate student has not yet reached it!
It's just that it's not easy to say too much about this kind of thing, so he just shook his head and returned the painting to Li Yi.
Li Yi smiled and didn't say much, if this painting was so easy to recognize, how could it be his turn to make a move? He had checked on the Internet afterwards, and when he created this handscroll, the style of Lingchuan Shixuan was already quite mature, and if he was at the level at that time, the quality of this scroll was indeed slightly out of standard.
However, the data shows that Hishikawa Shixuan also made some new style explorations in the later period, that is, this painting is likely to be an attempt made by him. This also explains why this painting was not included in some catalogues, because it is likely that Hishikawa Shixuan was not very satisfied, so he never took it out at all.
However, even if you are not satisfied, it is also the work of Hishikawa Shixuan. It is precisely because of the suspicion that this handscroll is experimental that Li Yi will directly take it out to seek exchange, otherwise, it will definitely be taken back to China and slowly seek to maximize benefits!
"Mr. Ota, you must have some emerald jewelry in your collection, right? I wonder if I have the honor to be able to appreciate it? "Although Ota is not optimistic about this painting, his move just now exposed at least one thing, that is, he definitely still has some emerald jewelry in his hand, and there are quite a few of them!
"Haha, since Mr. Li Yi is interested, let's take a look. Aitian, it's not that I deliberately didn't give it to you, the most important one is a complete set, and I don't dare to sell it. ”
"A complete set? Mr. Ota, what do you mean......" Li Yi was a little excited, you know, according to the classification of jewelry, a complete set includes headdresses, necklaces, arm ornaments, wrist ornaments, waist ornaments and even foot ornaments! Oh my God, a complete set of lost Diancui jewelry, it is very likely that it is also a palace article, not to mention how much it is worth, the collection value is great!
"Ahem." Seeing Li Yi's eyes shining, Ota coughed lightly twice in embarrassment, "I'm sorry Mr. Li Yi, I didn't make it clear, the set I said is a complete set of dotted green heads......"
"Is it just a nod to the emerald head? That's also a rarity. ”
Li Yi himself studied this major, and he has dabbled in these things, and he has studied it well after getting the spirit card, so he knows what the head face is.
In ancient times, there were generally two types of women who could have a little green head, one was a woman with a noble status, just like the emperor's concubine and the woman of a large family. The other category is the top brand of some Qinglou such as the singer, and in the later period, some opera masters will be added. Like Du Liniang and Mei Lanfang, they all once had a complete set of Diancui heads.
A set of dotted emerald head noodles is very complex, including bubbles, sideburns, tandem (triplet, quadruple), big top flowers, side bats, face flowers, sideburns, vertical beams, beams, back pockets, sunlight, earrings, shark fins and other single pieces, almost about 50 pieces!
In a sense, the number of a set of heads is even more terrifying than the full set that Li Yi just thought! It's just that the full set that Li Yi just said is really difficult to collect, and the difficulty of the head is much smaller, because the inheritance of Peking Opera is now hidden in China.
"Please, Mr. Li Yi, please come here."
After Ota finished speaking, he directly invited everyone to the office, and then carefully took out a wooden box from the safe and pushed it in front of Li Yi.
opened the wooden box, first there were a few photos of the model, Li Yi looked at it, and sure enough, it was the kind of head and face he had seen when he watched Peking Opera.
He shook his head slightly, even if this kind of head is a little green, its value will not be too high, generally not more than 1 million. If it was worn by those masters, the price would be hard to say, and Mei Lanfang's folding fan had been auctioned for more than 700,000 yuan!
However, if the master once wore it, the spirit card cannot be tested, and this can only be passed on, but this aspect is his weakness......
Putting down the photo on the most face, Li Yi picked up the second photo, which is the effect of wearing the model from different angles.
"Huh?"
This photo is a frontal photo, and from this photo, he can see something different from those heads and faces in the hands of Peking Opera masters. He quickly finished reading the remaining photos, and knew in his heart that he should have been misled by the first side photo just now, this should not be the kind of head face in Peking Opera, but a real set of ancient court head faces!
After looking at the photos, the next step is to look at the real thing. The reason why I want to match the photos of the models here is mainly because they are too scattered, more than 50 pieces, not to mention ordinary people, more than half of them are not sure that even Li Yi will recognize them when they are disassembled into a single piece!
"Side phoenix, partial phoenix, face flower, sideburns, back three...... Mr. Ota, your head mask is a real boutique! ”
"Thank you, this set of heads is indeed a set of high-quality products, this is my ...... I'm sorry, Mr. Li Yi, this set of noodles was transferred back to China from Manchukuo back then, and it is said to be a treasure owned by the concubine of Emperor Yongzheng. ”
"Oh? Yongzheng's concubine? Li Yi raised his eyebrows and directly opened the spirit identification card.
Indeed, the big top flower in his hand is indeed a product of the Yongzheng period, but its owner is difficult to say, because there is no hint of the spirit card.
However, the absence of a hint does not mean that it is not owned by the harem concubines, because under normal circumstances, in addition to prompting the maker, the user of the spirit card will only prompt the emperor, queen or queen of Zhengyin, and even sometimes those who are not famous will not prompt.
"It's just that if it is really owned by the concubine, maybe there will be some information to check, and on a certain piece of jewelry, there may be some special marks, the reason why Ota is sure that this is owned by the concubine, most likely is to find this kind of mark......"
Li Yi's heart changed for a moment and asked, "Mr. Ota, may I ask, do you know which concubine owns this?" ”
"Well, according to the person who handed over this set of heads, this should be owned by the Nian clan of the Dunsu Emperor's concubine, that is, the sister of Nian Qianyao, who was once a first-class official and a general of Fuyuan......"
"Oh? Can there be a mark on the jewelry? ”
Ota shook his head, this set of noodles has been in his house for decades, and he doesn't know how many times he has played with it, and he has never noticed any marks.
Li Yi nodded, saying that there is no proof of death. However, the impact on the head is not very great, because most of the things in this style are palace things, and it can be determined that it is from the Yongzheng period, so it is not Nian's will also be other concubines, if you have to say that it is influential, it is nothing more than the existence of Nian Qianyao, and Nian's will be more famous.
"That...... Mr. Ota, I don't know your ......" Although it was difficult to know, Li Yi still asked.
"No, no, Mr. Li Yi, this set of heads is now the heirloom of our Ota family, and we won't consider selling it easily......"
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just asking, if Mr. Ota really wants to make a move, I'm willing to give a good price......" Li Yi smiled on his face, but he scolded in his heart, nnd, it's obviously our Huaxia thing, but it has become your little Japanese heirloom!
Don't you sell it? Well, I don't believe that at the next trade fair, at the exchange meeting, I won't meet an appraiser who can recognize the handscroll. When the authenticity of that handscroll is confirmed, there is a way for you to spit out this set of heads! (To be continued.) )
