The paper of the painting is a little yellowed, and the old Ayako in the back also has insect eye holes.

However, the overall painting core does not have much impact.

The old paintings have been preserved to the present, and they are in good condition.

Chongning carefully examined the painting, trying to find some clues.

But his understanding of calligraphy and painting does not have much attainment.

For a while, I didn't see anything.

The proprietress is also a smart person, and when she saw Chongning studying like this, she asked, "Is this painting genuine?"

Chongning groaned and said, "I'm not sure, can I take a photo and show it to my friends?"

The proprietress responded, "Of course. If only it were worth it."

As she spoke, her eyes darkened, and she couldn't help but think of the mess.

Chongning took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the painting in all directions.

Then, he sent the picture to Qian Lao in Luojiang.

Qian Lao still has a very high attainment in the appraisal of calligraphy and painting.

Maybe at this point, he was still taking a nap and didn't reply to the message in time.

"Then you get busy first, I'll go back to my room to rest, and I'll tell you when I have news."

Chongning also felt tired, and after saying goodbye, he returned to his room and fell asleep.

The proprietress didn't pay too much attention to this matter.

In her opinion, the probability that this painting is Huang Gongwang's authentic work is infinitely close to zero.

Jingle bells! Jingle bells!

A hurried phone call woke up Chongning in his sleep.

Chongning got up a little angry, touched his phone, and said, "Who!"

"Hehe, good boy, which big collector have you been visiting?"

On the other end of the phone, Qian Lao's voice came.

Chongning sat up with a spirit, "Old Qian, hello! I'm here in Dali, I saw this painting, and I want to ask you what you think."

Qian Lao smiled and said, "Are you testing me?"

Chongning hurriedly said, "Where do I dare to test you, I really don't know much about calligraphy and painting."

"Haha, you take a painting of Huang Gongwang and show it to me, aren't you testing me?" Qian Lao said with a smile.

Chongning was taken aback and asked, "Is this really Huang Gongwang's painting?"

"Of course it's not Huang Gongwang's painting!" Qian Lao said directly, "Huang Gongwang's hand-me-down paintings, there are only a few, and there are a few of them."

Chongning frowned slightly, and said, "Then whose painting is this?"

Qian Lao smiled and said, "You still said that you didn't test me? This is Dong Qichang's imitation!"

Chongning was stunned for a moment and said, "Dong Qichang?"

Qian Lao replied and said, "Yes, there are relatively few seals on it, but they all match the seals."

"Although I didn't find the original work in the bibliography and publication, it is definitely Dong Qichang's true handwriting."

Paintings and calligraphy, especially ancient paintings, authoritative records, and the seals of great collectors are the key to distinguishing the authenticity from the fake.

Because the famous paintings of the past dynasties have been inherited for a long time, and there are more or less records in the well-known records.

For example, the Xuanhe records of the Huizong period, and the Shiqu treasures of Qianlong.

All the fine paintings of the past dynasties will be included in it.

There are many collectors who handle the high-quality paintings, so many famous paintings in the museum are densely packed with seals.

Most of the collector's seals and inscriptions will add color to the original paintings.

However, it is not absolute.

The stamped mad demon Emperor Qianlong is an exception.

For example, Wang Xizhi's fast snow when the sun is clear, the original post is only 28 characters, and the length is only more than 20 centimeters, which is a very small poster.

Emperor Qianlong was very fond of this sticker, and stamped 172 seals on the front and back, with nearly 20,000 inscriptions.

The small letters, which were originally only 20 centimeters, are now all spread out several meters.

In the middle of the original post, a huge god character was also written, a volume

The first inscription also quotes "miraculous skills", four regular script characters!

Li Bai's only hand-me-down work, the balcony post, has a total of twenty-five words.

Qianlong was even more crackling and stamped, and there were more than 70 seals in the entire copybook, which can be called the father of psoriasis!

Insiders joked that other collectors' stamps are value-added, and Qianlong's stamps are depreciation!

For example, it is still Li Bai's balcony post, and Song Huizong also has an inscription on it.

The thin gold body of his iron painting silver hook and Li Bai's uninhibited poetic immortal spirit complement each other, which adds a lot of color to this sticker!

If the bibliographic and the seal are correct, it must be genuine.

But if you don't have it, you can't say it's a fake.

It is also possible that some works have been passed down in a certain family and have never been released.

Ancient collectors paid attention to a privacy, cared about a Tibetan character, and appreciated the beauty of alone, at most with three or five friends to enjoy tea and paintings.

It's not the same as now, there is a baby, all posted on Moments and short videos, I can't wait for the whole world to know.

In this way, there are few seals on some ancient paintings, and they will not be included in the bibliographies.

Some experts will stumble on the catalogue and seal and think that it is fake if it does not appear in the famous catalogue or has not been auctioned in some big auctions.

For experienced experts, these are all aids. The most important thing is to look at the work itself.

A calligraphy and painting appraisal like Qian Lao, just from the brushwork, you can judge that eight or nine are not far from ten.

The charm is through, the style is consistent, and the material is consistent, which is the authenticity.

At this moment, Qian Lao is very sure that this landscape painting is Dong Qichang's authentic painting!

Dong Qichang, whose name is Xuanzai, is a great calligrapher and painter of the Ming Dynasty.

He is good at landscape painting, studying under Dong Yuan, Ju Ran, Huang Gongwang and Ni Zhan, integrating the strengths of each family, forming a school of his own, and has a huge and far-reaching influence on the painting world in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties!

In addition to being a master of calligraphy and painting, Dong Qichang is also a big collector.

It can be said that it is a collection of famous paintings in the world, and the handwriting of everyone in the Song and Yuan dynasties is the best for a while!

Dong Qichang is obsessed with Huang Gongwang's techniques and has collected more than 30 works.

During this period, he liked to copy and imitate Huang Gongwang's works.

This painting is Dong Qichang's imitation painting!

This landscape painting, at a cursory glance, is Huang Gongwang's gesture.

Only senior insiders can see that there is a kind of comfortable atmosphere and clear color in the pen and ink.

Although it is an imitation of Huang Gongwang's brushwork, it has a unique way and has its own style, which is the obvious implication of Dong Qichang. Z.br>

Chongning thought for a moment and asked, "Old Qian, can you give me an estimate for this painting?"

Qian Lao was a little surprised, "Valuation? This collector wants to sell?"

Chongning groaned and said, "No, I just want to know, what price can I get?"

Qian Lao hesitated a little, waited for a while, and said, "Dong Qichang's landscapes have always been sky-high. Such a large landscape painting is estimated at 50 or 60 million!"

Chongning was stunned and said, "Fifty or sixty million! It's so expensive!"

Qian Lao groaned and said, "It's just, it's just ......."

Chongning hurriedly asked, "But? But what?"
