This matter has been bothering Zheng Bai not for a day or two, but for a long time, because this is completely unreasonable, he is about to think out his head, and he still can't figure out what the reason is.

So in the end, Zheng Bai could only continue to show the painting in his hand to different people to see what others thought of it, but what made him even more unbelievable was that those who identified the words said that this should be Tang Bohu's real handwriting, but in this way, what happened to the one that had been auctioned?

This question is like a chicken or an egg first, which makes Zheng Bai almost want to cut off his head.

Historically, it has always been believed that Tang Bohu's calligraphy is not as good as painting. However, this is only a comparison with his paintings and poems. In fact, his talent for calligraphy was extremely high. The shadow of his legalist Zhao Meng. Wang Shizhen once said in "Zhoushanren Manuscript": "Bohu's book entered Wuxingtang Temple, and he was almost weak. ”

In addition, Tang Bohu also absorbed the essence of other calligraphers, such as Li Yong, Yan Zhenqing, Mi Fu and others, so as to integrate through, forming their own style, in general is chic and powerful, as if it is a high-flow waterfall as majestic, but between the body of the book is mixed with the temperament of the old spicy and the truth of the sky, so it often forms a sometimes heavy, sometimes easy to pass by, casual and posture, which is actually closely related to the temperament of Tang Bohu.

?One? Root? Read? The first period is before the age of 30, Tang Bohu lives in his hometown of Suzhou, and has a relationship with Wen Zhengming, so he is influenced by Wen Zhengming, and the calligraphy at this time is to learn from Zhao Meng, the body is upright and beautiful, and the penmanship is round; The second period is 30 to 36 years old, Tang Bohu was deposed, his wife divorced, to sell poetry, calligraphy and painting to make a living, and at this time his calligraphy is the pursuit of norms, the study is Yan Zhenqing's regular script, so the pen is condensed and heavy, round and fleshy, the body is slightly longer, and absorbed the penmanship of the collection, especially when the horizontal pen is used to end with the 'silkworm head', and when the pen is finished, there is ' The third period is 37 to 45 years old, Tang Bohu is in the prime of life, living in the legendary paradise of the peach blossom hermitage, at this time his economic conditions are relatively good, he has to concentrate on the creation of poetry, calligraphy and painting, life is self-satisfied, the heyday of creation. In calligraphy, he once again returned to the spiritual characteristics of Zhao Meng, and also absorbed the characteristics of Li Yong in the Tang Dynasty, and slowly formed his own and relatively mature characteristics. The strength is seen in the handsomeness of the body, and the vitality is seen in the circulation of the pen; The fourth period was from 46 to 54 years old, which was already Tang Bohu's old age. At the age of 45, he pretended to be crazy and fled back from King Ning, Jiangxi, Tang Bohu saw through the world, his thoughts were more depressed, and his behavior was more decadent

It is powerful, and the pursuit of power is the pursuit of power, and at this time it has truly reached the realm of 'swaying freely and flowing away'. ”

"The scroll in front of me was written by Tang Bohu in his later years, that is, in the fourth period, and it was definitely written by him in terms of style."

Zheng Bai's brows furrowed tightly, and he said, "Fang Ming, do you think this is Tang Bohu's true work?" ”

"Hmm. Yes, you look at the seal on it, 'Escape from Zen Immortal' is about him getting away from King Nanning and returning to his hometown, which is in line with the time when the poem was written. ”

"Also, the same is true for this side of the 'Nanjing Jieyuan', these two seals I remember that the 'Tang Yin' in the "Chinese Calligraphers and Painters' Seal Appreciation Style" compiled by the Shanghai Museum has a collection, I think, it should be in the 58th and 63rd seals. So, I feel like that should be true. ”

Fang Ming said, slowly retracting his right hand that he had gently pressed on the scroll before, and then watching the Pixiu that appeared on the back of his right hand slowly disappear, he knew even more in his heart, of course the scroll in front of him was real! Of course, in the eyes of others, Fang Ming's action was just appraising the scroll, which was really normal.

"If that's true, what about the one that was auctioned before? It can't be fake, right? ”

Fang Ming hesitated for a moment and said, "This...... I haven't seen that scroll, so I can't tell, but I don't think it's fake. ”

Something worth tens of millions, and it has been auctioned, although there is no guarantee that it is 100% true, but it must have been appraised by countless masters, so the possibility of being fake is very low.

"It can't be fake, it's true, how can there be two identical characters in this world? This has not been recorded in the ages, so it is impossible to be a thing! ”

Zheng Bai slapped his head, and he found that he had once again fallen into a strange circle, that is, the results of Fang Ming's appraisal were also true, but how could a copy of the things that had been auctioned off still appear in his hands? In fact, he had already inquired through some connections, and the auction was still in the hands of the original person, and there was no such thing as being lost.

As a result, he couldn't understand why this was happening.

Zhou Yafang put down the magnifying glass in her hand, her brows tightened, and said, "I don't think what Fang Ming said is wrong, this is indeed Tang Bohu's true handiwork." ”

"Alas!"

Zheng Bai sighed heavily and said, "Okay, you guys

The appraisal results are not unexpected, they all say that they are true, but the words in front of you are clearly not like the "Floating Jade Mountain Residence Map" that Fang Ming has identified before, so what is going on? ”

What's going on?

Of course, Zheng Bai wanted to know what was going on, but he couldn't figure out what was going on, and he couldn't find the answer and almost drove him crazy.

Fang Ming hesitated, but he remembered some possibilities.

"Zheng Lao, in fact, it is not uncommon for calligraphy and painting to reappear in history."

Zheng Bai was a person who played with old antiques, and he knew what Fang Ming meant as soon as he heard it: "Yes, it is true." The most important way is to rely on calligraphy and painting or draw money. In the history of our country, if it is a very famous calligraphy and painting, it is generally described, so although people who like calligraphy and painting may not be able to see the authentic works, they can roughly deduce the original appearance or characteristics of calligraphy and painting according to the records. It is precisely because of this that the person who makes a fake will not fabricate or 'make' a fake painting or calligraphy out of thin air. For example, many of the books of the Wei and Jin dynasties that can be seen today are copied by the method of double hooks, which are almost the same as the original works, and although the aspects of the painting cannot be traced by the method of double hooks. One of the masters depicted it in the original, and then used some methods to make it old. At this time, when people who have genuine paintings go to sell them, they use the original ones for the first time, but because the price is extremely high, they will get them back after looking at them once, and then they will talk about the price. Next, when you want to look at the painting, you won't take the real one, but take the one that is depicted, so that the fake one prepared by the other one is old at the same time, etc., and when the price is negotiated, the fake one is also completed: because the one that has been repeated many times before is also depicted, and if you see too much, you will naturally think that this is really the case in your mind, and then take out a fake one that has been old, and naturally you will not have too many doubts. When you really trade, you can talk about what to do with this painting of unknown origin, so that the buyer does not often take it out to others, just collect it yourself, so as to reduce the chance of problems as much as possible. ”

"I also know this, I have studied it carefully before, and there is no trace of the old book in front of me, and it is not depicted with a double hook."

In fact, for Tang Bohu, there is another thing in his calligraphy and painting, that is, at the beginning, that is, when he was not famous, he studied under a person named Zhou Dongcun, so he had the style of Zhou Dongcun. After Tang Bohu became famous, there were calligraphy and paintings by Zhou Dongcun, so that because Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting originally had the style of Zhou Dongcun, and the period was also matched, so the works of the two of them were actually very similar in this period, that is, in Tang Bohu's early years.

Once faced with such calligraphy and painting, it is difficult to identify even a real expert expert. But the problem is that the scroll in front of him was made by Tang Bohu in his later years, and the style and so on are already relatively mature, which is not the same as Zhou Dongcun's style, so it may also be Zhou Dongcun's pen work. ”

As soon as Fang Ming heard it, he knew that Zheng Bai had indeed studied these things to a very deep level, and the matter of Zhou Dongcun was actually not very clear to ordinary people.

Of course, it is also possible that after Tang Bohu became famous, someone asked Zhou Dongcun or even Zhou Dongcun himself to write some book stickers or paintings in the name of Tang Bohu, although these things have been recorded in history, but it is difficult to say what is going on now after so many years of the real situation, but one result is that once you face Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting in this period, you should be careful.

Of course, it is only limited to the period when Tang Bohu is learning calligraphy and painting, and it is not easy to learn seven or eight points of charm in other periods.

In a word, there are many reasons in history that will lead to the "reappearance" of celebrities' calligraphy and paintings, which is actually a difficult point in the identification of calligraphy and painting.

"Elder Zheng, what you said is all right, but what I think of is another possibility, maybe it can explain the problem we are facing now."
