Chapter 831: Xiang Dexin
Unlike the antique stalls you visit in the morning, you can use various methods such as credit cards, transfers, and cash to make transactions at any regular antique shop.
So, Seinfeld used his phone directly to transfer money, and then took over a pair of fully packaged white porcelain Hu Ren statues from the Sui Dynasty from the hands of the clerk.
Carrying the bag, Seinfeld walked back to Tang Yun's side.
At this moment, Tang Yun was no longer in the area of porcelain antiques, but stood with Wang Yu in the special area where the calligraphy and painting antiques were located.
He likes calligraphy and painting very much, especially ancient paintings, although Tang Yun's own painting level is a bit unsightly, but this does not prevent him from loving ancient paintings.
Unlike other types of antiques, the antique shop, called "Treasure Pavilion", has a noticeable number of calligraphy and paintings, some of which are placed on wooden shelves, some in glass cases, and some hanging on the walls.
For a moment, Tang Yun didn't know where to start
"Huh?!"
Looking around at the entire antique area of calligraphy and painting, Tang Yun noticed that there were also clearly marked prices and non-marked prices here.
After thinking about it, he suddenly saw a wooden shelf in front of him with calligraphy and painting antiques, and each calligraphy and painting was labeled with a price tag under it.
So, Tang Yun didn't bother to move his feet, and directly locked his eyes on the wooden shelf in front of him, only to see that the top layers of this wooden shelf were placed with ancient paintings, and then the lower layers were all calligraphy.
Tang Yun's habit was to leave the best at the back, so he squatted directly in front of the wooden shelf and began to look at the calligraphy and other antiques on the lower floors.
The first thing he saw was a couplet.
From right to left: "There is no wind and thunder to advise, but there is no warm sentence." ”
Located in the left middle of the left couplet, there is also a style "Zizhen He Shaoji", as well as two bell seals "He Shaoji Yin" and "Zizhen".
It can be seen that the author of this couplet should be a person named He Shaoji, and the character of He Shaoji is Zizhen.
Tang Yun has always insisted on practicing calligraphy, and therefore, he has known some well-known calligraphers in ancient times from the Internet and books, and this calligrapher named He Shaoji is also one of them.
Tang Yun remembered that He Shaoji seemed to be not only a calligrapher, but also a poet and painter, and was born in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty.
He Shaoji, born in a scholarly family, his father He Linghan once served as the head of the household book, is a well-known calligrapher, educator, scholar, and bibliophile, He Shaoji brothers are all good at learning good books, known as "He's four masters".
However, compared with poetry and painting, He Shaoji's calligraphy achievements are obviously very high, each body of calligraphy is cast in the ancients, and then became a family of its own, among them, he is best at cursive and this couplet in front of him, it is a work of calligraphy, of course, even if it is calligraphy, it is still a rare masterpiece from He Shaoji.
The couplets of the Qing Dynasty, if viewed in terms of value, are obviously not comparable to those of the Ming Dynasty, unless they are written by celebrities such as Qianlong, Ji Xiaolan and Liu Yong.
Although He Shaoji has some fame, he is far from being able to compare with Ji Xiaolan and others, and in addition, this couplet is a work at the end of the Qing Dynasty
After a rough observation, Tang Yun's estimate of it was about 50,000 yuan.
However, the price of this antique shop called "Treasure Pavilion" is 10,000 yuan, which is obviously a premium of 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.
The age is not old enough, and the price is about twenty or thirty thousand yuan higher than the market price, which is obviously not the target antique that Tang Yun wants.
But then again, He Shaoji's couplet is still well written, although the age is not old enough, but it still has a certain collection value, and it is a good masterpiece.
"Hey, it's a pity" Tang Yun glanced at it, shook his head slightly, and then began to turn his gaze to the other calligraphy and paintings on the shelf.
Unfortunately, although the remaining calligraphy works are also genuine, in terms of collection value and economic value, they are not even as good as He Shaoji's couplets.
So, Tang Yun slowly straightened up and moved his gaze to the painting at the top of the shelf
Picture of an arhat in red, vertical scroll, colored on silk.
Fuhai should be detailed, vertical scroll, color on paper.
Waterfall view at night, vertical scroll, color on paper.
Tang Yun looked at three paintings in succession.
However, to his slight pity, although these paintings have a certain value, in terms of age, they are all modern, and they are less than a hundred years old.
Tang Yun likes ancient paintings, and it is precisely because of this that his interest in modern and modern paintings is not very great, unless it is from the hands of masters such as Zhang Daqian and Qi Baishi, otherwise, it is difficult for ordinary modern and modern paintings to make Tang Yun feel bright.
Before looking at the paintings on the shelf in front of him, Tang Yun used the ability of perspective to check the aperture and confirm the age of the paintings before he began to look at them seriously.
Therefore, it only took him three minutes to read the first three modern paintings.
"Huh?!"
Suddenly, Tang Yun's gaze suddenly flickered, and he saw that a certain painting on the shelf in front of him actually showed an unequal number of apertures.
"This is the Ming Dynasty?!" Tang Yun muttered secretly as he counted the number of apertures.
In front of his eyes was a picture of ink and bamboo, and after admiring it for a while, he saw that there were styles, bell seals and collection seals in the middle right of the painting, so Tang Yun hurriedly picked up the magnifying glass in his hand, aimed at it, and looked at it carefully
Style: The barrel is washed and the inkstone is fragrant, and the road is idle and busy, and the inside is idle, and a branch of the wind breaks the sorrow. Written for Brother Yushui, Dexin.
Bell seal: Xiang De new seal, German new seal.
Collection seals: Yi'an appreciation, Yi'an approved gold and stone calligraphy and painting seal, Zhu Wenjun Youpingfu calligraphy and painting seal, Yi'an collection, Ou Zhai, Zhu Wenjun's longevity and descendants.
Judging from the style and bell seal on this painting, as well as the number of apertures Tang Yun saw, he can roughly know that this ink and bamboo drawing on silk on a vertical scroll was written by a painter named Xiang Dexin in the Ming Dynasty.
Although Tang Yun knew Xiang Dexin, he had only seen it on it, but in reality he had not seen even one of Xiang Dexin's genuine paintings, because Xiang Dexin's works have been handed down very rarely, and it is said that someone got his piece of paper, which is as precious as an arch, just like fine white porcelain in porcelain. 11
