Chapter 248: Dehua Guanyin Statue

Chu Chen smiled when he heard this: "I also entrusted my master's blessing, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to complete the appraisal so quickly." ”

Chu Chen is not all modest when he says this, it is really a coincidence, among the stories that Liu Lao said yesterday, there are about the production characteristics of bronze inscriptions, so he can see this bronze mirror at a glance.

Li Beibei, who was next to her, heard Chu Chen say this, and immediately remembered the story Liu Lao told yesterday, and muttered secretly: "Chu Chen, this bastard, I don't know if he stepped on shit, he actually has such shit luck!" ”

Hearing this, Professor Qin asked with interest, "Oh? Xiao Chu, take the liberty of asking, I don't know who your master is? ”

"My master's name is Liu Zhihe, I don't know if Professor Qin knows him?"

"Liu Zhihe?"

Professor Qin thought about it when he heard this, and then asked excitedly, "Xiao Chu, are you talking about Liu Lao?" ”

Chu Chen smiled and nodded: "Yes!" I didn't think you knew my master too! ”

Professor Qin said happily: "Why don't you know, I used to be a student, and I also listened to Liu Lao's lectures, I really didn't expect you to be Liu Lao's disciple, no wonder your level is so high, you deserve to be a famous disciple!" ”

Hearing this, Chu Chen hurriedly waved his hand, and said modestly: "Professor Qin, you have won the award, my level is far worse than my master's. ”

"Xiao Chu, you are too modest, Xiao Song, pour a few cups of tea for the guests!"

After the previous test, coupled with the fact that Chu Chen was a disciple of Liu Lao, Professor Qin's attitude towards Chu Chen suddenly changed, and he was very enthusiastic.

Taking advantage of the time when Xiao Song poured tea, Professor Qin and Chu Chen exchanged the characteristics of cultural relics from the Warring States Period for a while. For this kind of thing, most of which are rote memorization, Chu Chen of course came as soon as he opened his mouth. And this made Professor Qin appreciate Chu Chen even more. Looking at Chu Chen's eyes, he was also full of admiration.

After a while, everyone talked about the ancient tomb. Chu Chen asked, "Professor Qin, I wonder if the ancient tomb has been found now?" ”

Professor Qin sighed and said, "It's difficult! You need to check slowly to confirm. ”

"How so? Don't you already know the approximate range? As long as you find the thief hole, right? Chu Chen asked strangely.

Professor Qin said helplessly: "Xiao Chu, you don't know about our situation here, when you go over and take a look, you will understand what is going on." ”

At this time, a staff member walked in and said to Professor Qin: "Professor Qin, there is a guest from the collection department who has brought a statue of Dehua Guanyin over to transfer it to us. He also took an appraisal document issued by Mr. Zhao. ”

Hearing this, Professor Qin said: "Since there is an appraisal document issued by Mr. Zhao, it should be no problem, right?" You just have to take it. ”

The staff member said: "The key is that Mr. Sun feels that the statue of Guanyin is a little uncertain, and the curator stipulated some time ago that the acquisition of cultural relics must be signed by at least two experts. ”

"What about Mr. Kim? You know that, too. I'm not good at porcelain. ”

"He estimates that it will take a while to arrive, but that person is in a hurry to leave, Professor Qin, please go and top it."

"This Mr. Kim. It's been two days since I came back from a business trip, and I don't know how to come back to work early! Okay, I'll check it out! ”

Professor Qin said this. Seeing Chu Chen beside him, his eyes lit up. said: "Xiao Chu, I don't know if you're good at identifying porcelain?" ”

Hear here. Chu Chen immediately understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "I originally focused on porcelain and jade, but I'm an outsider, so it's a little inconvenient to appraise it, right?" ”

When Professor Qin heard what Chu Chen said, he was speechless for a while, you mainly focus on porcelain and jade, and you are so good at identifying bronzes, it is good to have a good master!

"It's okay, our museum will sometimes hire external experts, with Xiao Chu's identity and strength, even if our curator knows, he will definitely not blame him, let's go, let's go together."

Saying that, Professor Qin pulled Chu Chen and walked out, but Chu Chen was so enthusiastic that he had no choice but to agree. ……

"Teacher Sun, I said what's the matter with you, don't delay my time, okay, don't I have your Zhao Yiping Zhao's appraisal documents? Why don't you approve of it! This is Zhang Shoushan's work, some people want it, if it wasn't for Mr. Zhao persuading me to sell things to the museum, I wouldn't have come here! ”

As soon as Chu Chen and the others arrived at the door of the collection department, they heard a middle-aged man's voice coming from the house, and his tone was not so friendly.

"Sir, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, our museum now has a rule that things can only be acquired after two experts have been confirmed. You wait a little longer, and our expert should be over right away, and after his confirmation, you can trade. ”

When Chu Chen and the others walked in, they happened to see a middle-aged man wearing glasses, who was persuading, this person should be that Teacher Sun, he saw Professor Qin come in, his eyes suddenly lit up, and said, "Our Professor Qin is here, as long as he confirms it." ”

The middle-aged man said expressionlessly: "Oh, then hurry up and confirm, I still have something to do in a while!" ”

The group came to Mr. Sun's side, and Mr. Sun first introduced Professor Qin to the middle-aged man, then pulled him aside and whispered a few words.

Professor Qin nodded, then walked over to the table and took a closer look at the Guanyin.

During this period, Chu Chen also observed the Dehua Guanyin statue.

Dehua kiln is a famous porcelain kiln in ancient China, located in Dehua, southeast province and named after. There are abundant porcelain clay resources, abundant water sources, and convenient transportation, which is an ideal place for firing porcelain. Historical data record that a large part of the white porcelain produced by Dehua kiln in the Song and Yuan dynasties was sold overseas in large quantities by sea and land.

In the Ming Dynasty, the white glazed porcelain of Dehua kiln had further development, and the master craftsmen represented by He Chaozong made the milky white porcelain that was warm and milky white such as clotted fat, crystal like jade, and was called girl white, ivory white, and lard white.

After flowing into Europe, Westerners call it goose down white, ivory white, and Chinese white, which has become an important variety of China's export porcelain in the past dynasties, enjoying the reputation of oriental art, and calling it "the common treasure of He's works in the world".

There are many kinds of Dehua kilns, there are jue cups, plum blossom cups, incense burners, bottles, pots, bowls, washing and porcelain sculptures, etc., especially the porcelain sculpture is the most prestigious, this Guanyin statue in front of you is a porcelain sculpture work.

This statue is a relatively rare porcelain sculpture in the Dehua kiln green robe Guanyin statue, the statue is not bad at a glance, but in detail, the image of this Guanyin is dull, the posture is stiff, the details of the facial features and hands and feet are quite rough, and the Ming Dynasty Dehua kiln statue process is delicate, the vividness of the charm can not be the same at all.

In particular, the facial features are far from the statue of Guanyin in Dehua kiln, and the depiction of the folds of clothes is not smooth at all, if this Guanyin statue is the work of Zhang Shoushan, Chu Chen will not believe it.

You must know that Zhang Shoushan is a famous porcelain sculpture master in Dehua in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and he is good at character porcelain sculpture. His works were sold to Europe in the 17th century and are admired for their exquisite craftsmanship.

Zhang Shoushan's works are similar to He Chaozong's works in style, and the production process also has a lot in common, but they also have their own characteristics.

The creations of the two masters should be borrowed from each other, so the works appear to be "you have me, I have you". It can be said that Zhang Shoushan participated in the construction of "He School Art" and was also one of the founders of "He School Art".

How could such a clumsy work be produced with such a character?

At this time, Professor Qin had already looked at this Guanyin statue carefully, but judging from the expression on his face, he should also have some doubts about this Guanyin statue.

After giving up his position to Chu Chen, Professor Qin asked the middle-aged man, "Mr. Cao, I don't know how you got this Guanyin statue?" ”

Mr. Cao frowned and said, "This Guanyin seems to be my family's ancestor, but it should have nothing to do with you, right?" Do you still want to confiscate this statue of Guanyin? ”

Professor Qin smiled when he heard this: "Mr. Cao, you misunderstood, as long as it is not obtained illegally, how can our museum confiscate it?" Otherwise, what will the museum collect in the future? You say no. ”

"In that case, don't delay my time, you can't accept this thing, give me a happy word!" Mr. Cao waved his hand and said.

Professor Qin smiled and said, "Mr. Cao, please wait a while, and we will discuss." ”

"Then hurry up, five minutes at most! Otherwise, I'll go. As he spoke, Mr. Cao also looked at the time.

β€œhaode。”

After Professor Qin nodded to him, he came to Teacher Sun's side and asked in a low voice, "Teacher Sun, what do you think of this thing?" ”

Teacher Sun frowned and said: "Professor Qin, you also know that I am not too proficient in porcelain things, this thing, I always feel a little dull when I look closely, and the details are not enough, it really doesn't look like Zhang Shoushan's work." ”

"yes!"

Professor Qin also agreed with Mr. Sun's words, and said: "Zhang Shoushan's hand-me-down works are very few, only nine have been found so far, three in our country, six in Europe, and all of them are white porcelain, and I have never found green glaze again, not to mention that Zhang Shoushan's works have not found green glaze, and other Dehua porcelain sculptures do not seem to have found green glaze, right?" ”

"Green glazed porcelain sculptures are not absent, but very rare." Chu Chen interjected beside him.

"Hey, Xiao Chu, have you already identified it?" Professor Qin saw Chu Chen coming over and asked happily.

"Hehe, yes!"

At this time, Teacher Sun opened his mouth and asked, "Professor Qin, I don't know who this gentleman is?" (To be continued......)
