Andrew. The one that Wise and Jin Muchen had been in contact with before, Anthony. Wise is a typical American realist painter.

But his status in the rivers and lakes is not the Anthony who just died. Wise can compare to it.

Born in 1017 and died in 2009, he was one of the greatest American painters of the twentieth century, none!

He began to learn painting at the age of 15, held an exhibition at the age of 20, and was awarded the "Presidential Medal of Freedom", "Gold Presidential Medal" and "Congressional Gold Medal" by three US presidents, Kennedy, Reagan and George W. Bush in recognition of his outstanding dedication to American oil painting.

Andrew can paint and write poetry, so critics often comment that his paintings often have a unique poetic temperament, and his life's works are in the collection of countless American National Gallery houses.

Not only is it collected by the National Gallery of America, but also many oil painting lovers are also crazy about pursuing his paintings, and even many overseas museums and galleries regard his paintings as excellent works and are willing to spend a lot of money to collect them.

This shows the status of this painter!

His paintings are often based on the theme of natural characters in the American countryside, with a delicate and realistic realistic style, expressing the communication and harmony between man and nature, and the simple subject matter arouses people's nostalgia for the countryside and nature.

With keen sensibility and exquisite realistic techniques, he captures a moment of vision, and paints a painting that contains a sense of silence and a touch of sorrow, full of moving and heartfelt poetry. This is the main reason why he is called a poet-painter.

He depicts familiar local landscapes in a realistic manner. Organize visual experiences imaginatively. With a strong local color, he created a unique nostalgic realistic style, which is why his painting style is even more unique, known as American nostalgic realism, and he himself is respected as the master of painting who created this school style.

His paintings are very popular in the United States, and have always been the darlings of oil painting auctions, and many wealthy people are willing to spend a lot of money to get a copy of his paintings.

Previous years. At auctions held in New York, his works have been auctioned, and the average price of the auction has been more than $5 million.

One of his masterpieces, "Rabbit Boys", was sold at an auction in the early 2000s, with a sky-high price of nearly 10 million yuan, which is definitely a miracle for the Western oil painting circles where the Impressionist oil painting style is the mainstream.

It is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the realist painters, and since then there have been countless painters who have taken him as an example. He threw himself into the creative army of realism, or nostalgic realism oil painting in the United States.

And these paintings of Professor Chen copied Andrew. Wise's work. The standard can be said to be quite high, and they are all imitated by Andrew. Wise's masterpiece, Jin Muchen likes it more and more.

On the other hand, Professor Chen's self-created works are all paintings created in the nostalgic realist style of Andrew Wise, but the themes and backgrounds of these paintings are not in the United States, but in China.

The subject matter is mainly concentrated in the pastoral areas of the western part of the country, describing the life of the herdsmen in the western countryside, the painting is original, but the style has a strong taste of imitation, and the realism is mixed with a little abstract taste, but it does not reflect the poetry in Andrew's oil paintings, it looks more ingenious, and it cannot be regarded as a masterpiece, but because of the seriousness of the creator, it can also be seen that the sincerity of the painting.

Jin Muchen was very satisfied with the more than 20 works in this room, and turned his head to Professor Chen.

"Professor Chen's paintings, I am very satisfied, if you are willing to sell, you can quote a price!"

Professor Chen didn't expect Jin Muchen to be so generous, and he wanted to wrap his paintings in one mouth, which made him hesitate.

To be honest, when he was studying in the United States, it was Andrew. Wise is a big fan, that's why he works hard to learn Andrew. Wise's art style.

Although some of the paintings in this room are copied and some are self-created, they can be said to be his painstaking works, and even a few of them are still his proud works that he wants to keep as a souvenir.

Now Jin Muchen wanted to wrap up these paintings, which made him hesitate, and after a while, he raised his head and said to Jin Muchen: "Mr. Jin, these paintings can be said to be paintings from my peak, I know that my talent is mediocre, and it may be difficult to paint paintings of this level, so can you let me keep a few?" ”

Jin Muchen nodded, and agreed very simply: "Of course it's no problem, you can take what you want to leave from the wall, and then leave what you want to buy on the wall, let's discuss the price." ”

In the end, Professor Chen took out about seven or eight paintings from the wall, leaving only fifteen, of which about 10 were copied paintings and five were original by him.

Although the copied paintings are of a high level, they are not worth much money, and these paintings were sold for about 5,000 yuan.

And the price of his original paintings is a little higher, but it is not particularly high, that is, about 10,000 pieces, Jin Muchen did not bargain, and directly made a deal with him.

In fact, Professor Chen did not ask for a price indiscriminately, and now the domestic oil painting collection is not very prosperous, and he is not a well-known painter, so the price of 10,000 paintings is very reasonable for a painter of his level.

Jin Muchen transferred the account, and then asked Professor Chen to find someone to pack the paintings into a cart and send them back to the hotel.

When he returned to the hotel, the first thing Jin Muchen did was to take out the impressionist oil paintings that could not be said to have come from the packaging.

After all, these oil paintings were already paintings made more than 20 years ago, and when Professor Chen bought them from the old man, he brought them with frames, and he never changed the frames after returning to China.

Later, after he opened an oil painting workshop, because he would often take these paintings out as examples for students to copy, he often moved them around, and the frames had already been bruised and encountered.

Fortunately, it didn't hurt the picture, so when Jin Muchen was leaving, he asked Professor Chen for a few frames, and planned to frame them anew after returning to the hotel.

But when I took these canvases out of the frame, I saw that the back of the canvas revealed a signature of the dragon and the phoenix, as well as the age when these paintings were created.

At that time, when Professor Chen introduced these paintings, he said that these paintings were painted by an unknown old man who bought them at a flea market on Long Island, and now that he saw the artist's signature on the back of the paintings, Jin Muchen couldn't help but be interested in this old man.

Looking carefully at the signatures on it and the date of creation, these paintings should have been created in the sixties and seventies of the last century, but the name of this painter is very awkward, and it does not look like a typical American name.

Arthur. Pinajang, Jin Muchen read the name of this painter, why is it so familiar?

He hurriedly flipped out of the computer and googled the painter, which startled him, it turned out to be Arthur. Pinajean is no simple character.

He has a nickname, but the American 'Van Gogh', because he is the same as Van Gogh, or he has always been unknown, but after his death, he became famous, and his works have been recognized by the art world.

But this guy had a very sad time when he was alive, he was an Armenian-American, and he was in oil painting with Andrew, who came from an artistic family. Wise is different, he is self-taught.

and his contemporary, Andrew. Wise became famous at a young age and created his own school, and he is a well-known painter in the United States, and this Pinajean's chances are much worse.

His earliest means of making a living was to talk comics to comic book companies, and in this regard, he also created some outstanding characters, but unfortunately compared with big names like Iron Man, Superman, and Spider-Man, the comic characters he created can only be regarded as a niche, but they can also make him eat.

His greatest hobby is oil painting, and he has created more than 70,000 works in his lifetime, which can definitely be called a prolific painter.

Of course, most of those oil paintings are not too well-formed art oil paintings, and many of them are worthless drafts.

As a cartoonist and an aspiring oil painter, Pinajean never underestimated himself, he always considered himself to be the contemporary Picasso of the United States, and his work should be displayed in the Fuller Building in New York, because he felt that only in this skyscraper could his talent be showcased.

It's a pity that his long-cherished wish was not fulfilled until he died in 1999.

In 2007, two real estate agents bought his log cabin on Long Island and turned it into a vacation home, where they found 70,000 of his works.

And these works, after the release of a part, were quickly recognized by the American art world, Arthur. Pinajan's name quickly became popular in American art festivals, especially in the Impressionist world.

The treasures of his paintings have been collected by the National Gallery of America, and his status in the rivers and lakes has been recognized.

And in March 2013, the artist's last wish was finally fulfilled, and he left a special exhibition in the Fuller Building to honor and commemorate the most talented impressionist painter in the history of contemporary American oil painting.

After learning the origin of this Arthur Pinajan, Jin Muchen can no longer hold back the ecstasy in his heart, which is really good, and he can actually pick up the paintings of this famous artist in Chinese mainland.

Seeing that he was able to run into such good luck before ending his trip to China, he didn't know how to describe how he felt at this moment! (To be continued......)
