Chapter 771: Truth in Falsehood
"Huang Chong, how did you want to buy this painting?" Uncle De asked.
After seeing this painting, his appraisal is basically the same as Huang Chong's appraisal before, it is an ordinary imitation, and it has no great value.
"There's a lot of money." Huangfu Yun said in a low voice.
"It's mainly framing." Huang Chong said.
"Framed?"
"Yes." Huang Chong nodded, looked at the painting on the table, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a Song-style outfit." ”
"Song-style outfit?" Huang Fuyun asked: "According to your meaning, this painting should not be from the Song Dynasty, right?" That's not right, the Song Dynasty didn't have Tang Bohu or anything. ”
"China's calligraphy and painting mounting, in fact, has been there very early, this form of scroll probably appeared in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and when it developed to the Song Dynasty, because of the unprecedented prosperity of calligraphy and painting, calligraphy and calligraphy, there were a lot of mounting techniques." Huang Chong explains:
"However, the real Song Dynasty mounting method, the mounting material used should be silk silk, but this is made of rice paper, looking at the process, it should be the Ming Dynasty or the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty imitation Song craftsmanship, and it is the technology of the southern generation."
"Yes, your eyesight is good, that's what made you decide to buy this painting?" Uncle De asked.
"Yes, of course, this painting is 12,000, if its starting price is 210,000, then I will give up, this time to buy to satisfy my curiosity, but also to verify my guess, it is regarded as a venture investment, not a loss." Huang Chong said.
"Hmm." Uncle De nodded and praised: "Good mentality, this is what you want, and you are observant, very good, continue to talk about your other judgments." ”
"There is also the sky pole, the ground pole and the shaft head of this painting, all of which are made of wood, and the materials are not bad, with such a framing process and materials, to frame a pair of 12,000 imitations, to be honest, overkill."
"Another point is that the paper is too thick."
"Thick paper?"
"Yes, although good rice paper is made in layers, an ordinary rice paper can be split into two or three layers, and some high-grade rice paper can even be split into more than a dozen layers, but a pair of ordinary imitations, how can it be possible to use such good paper."
"It's really thick, and it's a bit unreasonable to paint a picture on rice paper like this." Uncle De picked up the magnifying glass and studied it again.
Picture-in-picture.
The above inferences are all judgments made by Huang Chong before buying the painting, even if it is wrong, it is 12,000, which is not a lot of money for Huang Chong, and it will not affect his life, so it is worth gambling.
After buying this painting, Huang Chong wrapped the whole painting with his spiritual power, and immediately found the problem with this painting, this painting has two layers, and the top is a very ordinary painting, but there is another painting inside.
"Wait here for a moment, and the truth will be revealed immediately." Uncle De picked up the scroll, turned around and left the hall, and went to the studio to work, Uncle De is one of the top cultural relics restoration masters in China, and he is also an expert in the framing of calligraphy and painting.
"What's going on?" Huangfu Yun was completely stunned.
"Read the book, drink a few cups of tea, the truth will be known later, don't be too anxious." Huang Chong said calmly as he brewed tea.
"This ......" Huang Fuyun looked at Zhuang Rui, Zhuang Rui shrugged, he understood a little, but only after Huang Chong finished speaking.
……
"Boss Yu." Miao Feifei's case has also made a breakthrough, on the dashcam of a car, the appearance of the three robbers after taking off the masks was recorded, one of them is fat and one is thin, she is still very familiar with it, it is the two people who talked to Huang Chong before, and the other person, known as Boss Yu in the rivers and lakes, has a criminal record in the police system, and has been in prison for selling cultural relics.
"Sister, I found out, they left the capital yesterday and went to the northwest."
"Northwest." Miao Feifei was stunned when she heard this, if he remembered correctly, it seemed that Huang Chong and Zhuang Rui would also go to the northwest tomorrow.
"Okay, Xiao Zhao, you go and apply immediately, this time you go with me, and you must bring this group of people to justice." Miao Feifei said.
"Yes."
"By the way, you can call and ask if there is an archaeological team sent to the northwest by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences recently."
"Sister, are you suspicious of them......"
"Well, since this group of people is a tomb robber, there is no reason to suddenly come to the capital, rob something, and then leave in a hurry, this is unreasonable, I speculate, it must be that they have found something, it is likely that they have found a new target, this robbery, maybe it has something to do with tomb robbery." Miao Feifei said.
"Yes."
……
"Come here, all of you!" After drinking tea for half an hour, Uncle De beckoned.
After entering the studio, the three of them found that the original painting had now become two, one on the table and the other on the wall, the former was the one they had seen earlier, and the one on the table looked much older.
"This is a comparison of goods, and it has to be thrown away." Huang Fuyun said with emotion, even if he is a person who does not know anything about antique calligraphy and painting, after seeing these two paintings, he can immediately distinguish the difference, it is simply a world of difference, the paintings on the wall are dull, and the paintings on the table are lifelike.
"The above one, Tang Bohu's demeanor is indeed a little bit, but just looking at this paper, there is nothing to study, imitations."
"But this one is completely different." Uncle De pointed to the painting on the table and said: "The brushstrokes are clean and neat, and the words are also spiritual, you can see her clothes, people, and stones, how vivid the paintings are!" ”
"Uncle De, you mean, this is fake, on top of the real one?" Zhuang Rui asked in surprise.
"Yes." Uncle De nodded: "Judging from the seal above, it can be regarded as an orderly inheritance, but after it is in the hands of the last person, it may be that someone is afraid of coveting it, or for some other reason, so he simply put a layer of fake pictures on the surface of the authentic work to hide people's ears and eyes, and then, I don't know what the reason is, this painting was lost in the hands of the insider, and it was regarded as an imitation and passed down." ”
"Is this really Tang Bohu's painting?" Huang Fuyun asked.
Although he didn't know how much Tang Bohu's paintings were worth, it was certain that they were worth a lot, after all, Tang Bohu's fame was so great.
Uncle De said: "Nine times out of ten, but I am not professional in the identification of calligraphy and painting, Huang Chong, you can go to someone else to help you take a look." ”
Uncle De, these experts of the older generation, are more cautious, unless they are absolutely sure, they rarely make absolute conclusions anyway.
"Uncle De, you are humble, if you say yes, then there will definitely be no problem." Huang Fuyun said with a smile.
"Hmm." Zhuang Rui nodded.
Uncle De shook his head and said to Huang Chong: "Huang Chong, your eyesight is amazing, even I didn't see the problem, but you saw it, and sure enough, it is still a young man's eyes, amazing, amazing!" ”
"That's luck, I just think 12,000 is okay, so I'll give it a try." Huang Chong said: "If it was 20,000, maybe I wouldn't have started." ”
"Luck is also a kind of strength."
"Uncle De, don't do anything, why don't you help me frame it?"
"Okay, but I won't charge you any more, it's just that you have to stay with me for a month or two longer."
"Okay."
