Chapter 519: Genuine

The fan surface, as the name suggests, is a face in the shape of a fan, in which there are a cluster of fans and a folding folding fan. The group fan is also known as the fan, the palace fan, because the shape resembles the full moon, it is used more in the ancient palace, and the folding fan is also known as the head fan, the folding fan is folded, and it is spread when it is used, so it is also called the sprinkled fan.

In the history of China, calligraphers and painters of all dynasties liked to paint or write on the fan surface to express their lyrical meaning, or to collect or give poems to friends as a souvenir. With the vigorous development of painting art, especially landscape painting, flower and bird painting in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties have been unprecedentedly improved, the relationship between literati and painting has become closer and closer, forming a climax of literati painting creation.

And the fan that Fang Mutian likes is a folding fan, which is wide and narrow at the bottom, and is fan-shaped. On one side of the fan, there is a painting, and this painting depicts Wang Xizhi watching geese and cranes in the Lanting Water Pavilion with fine brushwork.

Between the sizes, the composition is dense, the brush and ink are meticulous, among which the rock spring rotates, the pine weeping willows, spring flowers and green bamboos dot the garden. The characters are elegant, the scarves are elegant, and the maids in the courtyard either carry the piano or cook tea.

The picture is exquisite, the characters are vivid, the characters in the scene in the picture, their every move is vivid, everything is so realistic.

On this side, in addition to such a painting, there is a two-party collection seal on the right side of the painting, and this collection seal is also Xiang Yuanbian's two-party collection seal. After Fang Mutian picked up the fan and saw the back, he was also surprised, because on the back was Xiang Yuanbian's "Linwangxi's Post" two.

You must know that Xiang Yuanbian was a famous calligrapher in the Ming Dynasty, in addition, he was a famous collector and connoisseur in the Ming Dynasty. He distinguishes between the real and the fake, and he can be said to be unmatched at the time.

Seeing this fan, Fang Mutian felt very puzzled, how could no one buy such a beautiful fan? And isn't this fan very similar to Qiu Ying's "Orchid Pavilion" fan in the Palace Museum?

In the Forbidden City Museum, Qiu Ying's "Orchid Pavilion" fan is a gold paper, blue and green color, 21.5cm in length and 31.2cm in width, which can be said to be almost no different from the fan in front of Fang Mutian's eyes.

According to Fang Mutian's own judgment, this fan is genuine, not an imitation, but it has not been favored, I think it is because everyone knows that the real product of this fan is in the Forbidden City Museum, so it is obvious that this one is fake, who wants to buy a fake?

"The fan in the Forbidden City Museum does not have Qiu Ying's seal on it, and the reason why it is speculated that it is from Qiu Ying's hand is based on the painting and Xiang Yuanbian's collection seal, but now there is such a fan here that is exactly the same as the one in the Forbidden City, so it means that this one is real, and the one in the Forbidden City is fake." Fang Mutian looked at the fan in his hand and couldn't help but think in his heart.

He dared to say that this fan of "Lanting Tu" was real, and the one in the Forbidden City was fake, of course, there was his basis.

Fang Mutian has seen Qiu Ying's real painting, and there is a picture of Qiu Ying's "Lady Picture" in his hand, in addition, don't forget, the strength he appreciates is grandmaster-level, the most powerful person in the world, what others can identify, he can, and if others can't identify, he can still identify.

Not to mention that he still has the ability to see through this against the sky, even if some antiques have been used to conceal the fog method and use some special means to hide their true appearance, under his perspective, it can be said that they are all hidden from the ground, and nothing can fool his eyes.

"Little brother, this fan in your hand is an old thing, look at the painting on this surface, how good the painting is, how realistic it is, it is the same as the real thing, do you want to buy it? If you buy it, I can give you a discount. The vendor said with a smile on the other side.

Fang Mutian smiled and said, "I'll take a look first, but you said this is an old thing, but why don't I think it's very different?" The name of this fan is called "Orchid Pavilion", and there seems to be such a picture in the Palace Museum. ”

Hearing Fang Mutian's words, the vendor's originally smiling face suddenly stiffened, of course he knew that there was such a fan in the Palace Museum, and it was precisely because there was an identical fan in the Palace Museum that he couldn't sell this one, and there weren't even a few people who asked.

"I didn't expect you to be an insider, brother, you are right, in the Palace Museum, there is indeed a fan that is exactly the same as this one, but that one is real, and my one is not fake." The vendor said that although he knew that his things were not real, he would not say that they were fake, and if he said they were fake, then who would buy them?

Fang Mutian shook his head and said: "It can't be fake, it can't be fake, big brother, whether your fan is real or not, we all know it in our hearts, but I prefer to collect fans, although I can't get the one in the Palace Museum, but since you have one here that is exactly the same, if you sell it cheaply, I will buy it and collect it." ”

The vendor looked at Fang Mutian and said, "I don't know how much money you pay, little brother?" ”

Fang Mutian smiled: "The thing is yours, you don't say a price, how can I make a good bid?" Big brother, you say, how much do you sell this noodles? ”

The vendor pondered for a while and said, "Little brother, since you are a knowledgeable person, then I'll tell the truth, this noodle is what I received for a thousand, if you want it, I won't earn much from you, you just give me 1,000 and a half." ”

He knew that Fang Mutian was a person who played antiques, and his eyesight was not bad, and it was impossible to deceive the other party, so he didn't continue to say that his noodles were true, of course, as for the price he said, whether it was really his 1,000 receipt, that is up for debate.

"One thousand five?" Fang Mutian shook his head and said, "I'm not a fool, one thousand and five is too expensive, everyone knows that this is a fake, and I only bought it as a handicraft collection." ”

"How much are you going to sell, brother?" The vendor asked, frowning.

Fang Mutian said: "According to the market price, I will give you a maximum of five hundred, if it exceeds this price, I don't want it." ”

The muscles in the corners of the vendor's eyes jumped, and he looked at Fang Mutian and said: "Little brother, you are too ruthless at this price, as the saying goes, you bargain on the ground, but your five hundred yuan is too low." ”

Fang Mutian said: "It's not low, with the situation of this fan, five hundred yuan is already very high, as long as people who know a little about antiques, they all know that there is a fan that is exactly the same as this one in the Palace Museum, everyone knows that this is a fake, who would think that I would buy it for five hundred yuan like this?" Big brother, do you want to sell? If you sell it, I'll take it, and if you don't sell it, forget it. ”

The vendor heard Fang Mutian's words, thought for a while, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, five hundred is five hundred, I have been holding this noodle in my hand for a long time, since you buy it, little brother, then I will sell it to you." ”

Although 500 yuan seems very low, but for the vendor, he still made a lot of money, you must know that when he took back this noodle, it only cost 80 yuan, and now it is sold for 500, do you say he earned?

It can be seen that the antique industry is definitely profitable.

Fang Mutian shook his head with a smile, then took out five hundred yuan and handed it to the vendor.

The vendor took the money, looked at Fang Mutian with a smile, and said, "Little brother, my other things here are very good, do you want to look at the others again?" ”

Fang Mutian glanced at the other things on the stall, shook his head, and said, "Your things here are indeed good, but I only like to collect fans." ”

Leaving the stall, Fang Mutian continued to walk forward, on the way, he also kept looking at the fan in his hand, "Lanting Tu", he believed that this was from Qiu Ying's pen and belonged to the real product, but if you want to confirm that this is true, you still need evidence.

After looking at it carefully, Fang Mutian suddenly found that there was a small piece in the upper right corner of the painting center of Qiu Ying's "Lanting Map" on the fan surface, which was a little thicker than the other places.

"What's going on?" Fang Mutian felt a little inexplicable, and immediately used perspective, under the perspective, the place that made him feel abnormal immediately revealed his original form under his eyes.

Fang Mutian suddenly had a smile on his face, and chuckled: "I see, it's exactly the same as the one in the Palace Museum, how can there be two of them on one fan at the same time?" It turns out that the secret is here. ”

Under the perspective observation, Fang Mutian finally understood, and he was more sure that the fan in his hand was genuine, and the one in the Palace Museum was fake.

In ancient times, a small number of folding fans were made of silk, and most of them were pasted with paper, which was convenient for the creation of calligraphy and painting. In the place where he found something unusual, under the perspective of it, he found that there was someone using the same paper with a fan, covering something.

Under the covering, it is nothing else, it is a seal, and this seal is Qiu Ying's seal. Qiu Ying's seal Fang Mutian had seen it, and he could naturally recognize it at a glance.

The painting of "Lanting Tu" is exactly the same as Qiu Ying's painting style, coupled with Qiu Ying's seal, which can fully prove that this fan is from Qiu Ying's hand and is genuine.

"This hidden technique is really unusual, this small piece is as flat as the fan, if it weren't for the sharp eyes, I'm afraid no one would be able to see that there is something hidden here." Fang Mutian shook his head and sighed: "This one is real, then the one in the Palace Museum must be a fake, and that one is rated as genuine, and the painter of this "Orchid Pavilion Map" is extremely similar to Qiu Ying's, but how can there be Xiang Yuanbian's collection seal on it?" ”

Fang Mutian couldn't figure this out, these fans could not appear two at the same time in ancient times, but Xiang Yuanbian's appreciation strength was not weak, this one had his collection seal on it, how could there be one on it?

Could it be that Xiang Yuanbian got two tickets at that time? For such a situation, Fang Mutian couldn't figure it out.
