Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- Zhou Xia didn't say much to her. The two of them exchanged treasure appraisals. He also looked at Xu Yaohui and found that his expression was very solemn.
Generally, in situations like this, Zhou Xia would not think that something is wrong, but that something is very good and it is difficult to make up his mind.
Xu Yaohui is currently appraising the works of Zhu Yunming and Zhu Zhishan. Although Zhou Xu took a brief look at them, he could estimate from the size and word count that if they were genuine, they would cost at least seven to eight hundred thousand. For him, whether to buy or not is a difficult decision.
Of course, Zhou Xia can't care about that much now. He is more focused on the matter at hand. Whether the calligraphy work by Zhu Zhishan is true or false, he will also have to identify it later. Now, let's get this work by Wen Zhengming first. Say it again.
Fortunately, the work on this fan is not a wild calligraphy like the two previous calligraphers, but running script, and Zhou Xia can still recognize what is written. It was a message he wrote for New Year's Day. The neat and smooth handwriting gave Zhou Xia a good first impression, but he was not affected by this and followed the old routine of identifying the age of the paper and ink first.
Since these works are all from the Ming Dynasty, it is more convenient and accurate to identify the age of the paper and ink. Zhou Xia quickly came to the conclusion that the age of this work has reached a certain age. At the latest, it should be a work from the early Qing Dynasty.
In this way, Zhou Xia really thinks highly of Wang Mingming, who is rare and has a conscience. You know, in today¡¯s market, there are so many fakes that it¡¯s hard to find something old, let alone a genuine one.
Zhou Xia is more familiar with Wen Zhengming¡¯s calligraphy than the calligraphy of the two previous ones, Zhang Ruitu and Xie Dong.
¡°The painting of Qiu Ying that Zhou Nanming brought before to make him look embarrassed contained a fake postscript that he identified as Wen Zhengming.
According to Zhou Xia¡¯s judgment, the handwriting on this work is pretty good, but it always feels like it¡¯s still a little bit behind Wen Zhengming¡¯s calligraphy.
You must know that Wen Zhengming is the top calligrapher. He is particularly good at calligraphy. His calligraphy is characterized by gentleness, elegance, rigor and vividness. There is no majestic momentum, but there is a gentleness, maturity and stability in it.
What can I say about this work? I didn¡¯t feel it when I first saw it, but when I tasted it carefully, Zhou Xia always felt a little frivolous and impetuous. This is not like Wen Zhengming, who has experienced many vicissitudes of life, has a twists and turns in his mental journey, and is a late bloomer. style of.
Zhou Xia had seen Wen Zhengming¡¯s original work at the Donghai Museum before, and comparing the two, the feeling was even more obvious. Without Wen Zhengming's accumulation and practice, it would be really not easy to achieve the same level of calligraphy as him.
Therefore, Zhou Xia asserted that this kind of Dong painting is similar to the previous one, and should be an imitation of predecessors, maybe even from the same group of people. They all faked Xie Dong's calligraphy, so there was no reason not to give Wen Zhengming face. Moreover, in terms of reputation, Wen Zhengming was slightly more famous, and his value in the market was also higher.
He is not ambiguous at the moment and hopes that systematic identification can confirm his point of view.
The result of systematic identification is that this work was created in 1650 AD and belongs to the Shunzhi period of the early Qing Dynasty. At that time, Wen Zhengming had been dead for nearly a hundred years, so it must be a replica.
After he finished appraising the painting, Xu Yaohui, who had been paying attention to Zhu Zhishan¡¯s works, finally came to a conclusion. But he didn't want his own judgment to affect Zhou Xia's identification results. He also hoped that Zhou Xia would help him in the end.
Although Xu Yaohui didn't say anything, Zhou Xia could feel his conflicted psychology.
At this point, Zhou Xia finally understood why Wang Mingzheng was willing to take out the good things he had collected. Needless to say, the prices of these works would definitely not be low.
¡°When you encounter someone like Xu Yaohui who has some attainments in calligraphy, but is not particularly good at it, no matter whether he can correctly identify whether it is authentic or not, he will definitely sell them all as authentic. Such authentic works are also very tempting to people. Even if you don't need them, it is quite good to use them to honor your elders.
Wang Mingzheng can be said to be able to grasp people's hearts.
Of course, what determines whether Wang Mingzheng can get his wish is what he has in his hands.
If this Zhu Zhishan¡¯s work is a replica, Zhou Xia will definitely point it out to Xu Yaohui, so that he won¡¯t spend some unjust money. If it was truly an authentic work, there was nothing Zhou Xia could do. It would depend on Xu Yaohui's own decision whether to buy it or not.
This calligraphy work by Zhu Zhishan is a cursive script.
This gave Zhou Xia a big headache again.
¡°And this time, it¡¯s not the literary content that Zhou Xia is familiar with.
He simply didn¡¯t look at the handwriting first, and started from other aspects step by step. Because of Xu Yaohui's attitude, Zhou Xia started to make an appraisalHe is also becoming more cautious and careful. It can be said that he is nitpicking.
But there is not much to pick on in this work. Whether it is the material of the paper and ink, or the various folds, and the traces of ink penetrating into the paper, they are almost the same as the calligraphy works of the Ming Dynasty. What is particularly worth mentioning is that the preservation condition of this work is better than that of the other works. Although it is not as complete as new, there is no special damage found.
In the end, Zhou Xia couldn't find fault, so he still had to judge from the areas he was least good at.
From his own personal perspective, this cursive writing is easier for him to accept than the cursive writing of the previous two.
The work is awkward, regardless of clumsiness. However, in the ink and ink on the paper, the dots and strokes are still subtle and the rhythm is relaxed. To put it simply, it is quite rhythmic, unlike Zhou Xia himself, who is full of ink before writing. When I can't take care of it, the individual handwriting looks okay, but when put together, it becomes unsightly.
??Moreover, the entire work is just like a high-quality landscape painting, with a sense of layering. Although the writing is very dense, it does not make people feel crowded. Throughout the article, the letter is written freely and quickly, as if it was written in one stroke, but without that impetuous and slippery feeling.
Even though Zhou Xia doesn't know much about calligraphy, he can still feel that without enough skill and realm, he will never be able to reach this level.
Zhou Xia recalled the Zhu Zhishan cursive script he had seen before at the Donghai Museum. The style felt similar to this, and it was the most typical Zhu Zhishan cursive script.
"It is most appropriate to judge Zhu Zhishan's cursive script by "getting Zhang Dian's majesty and hiding truth's flying".
??Looking at the signature and bell seal, they are also typical Zhu Zhishan style.
Yiyou summer. Zhishan Zhu Yunming.
Zhou Xia was very happy to see the exact date. Converting it according to time, it was most likely AD 1525. Zhu Zhishan was sixty-five years old at that time. It was when his calligraphy was most mature and it was also the last few years of his life. .
If the system makes a judgment that it was indeed made in 1525, it can basically be concluded that it is an authentic work by him. Of course, there is a small possibility that it was imitated by someone else in the same year, but the possibility is not very high, especially if one has to practice calligraphy to such an extent.
Zhou Xia did not delay. After coming to the conclusion, he immediately let the system make an appraisal.
The final conclusion reached by the system was that it was indeed created in 1525 AD.
Such a result was not beyond Zhou Xia's expectation. He could guess something from Xu Yaohui's expression before.
Zhou Xia took this rare opportunity to carefully experience and deeply understand the artistic beauty contained in Zhu Zhishan¡¯s cursive script.
Watching the truth at close range is better than the glass in the museum. I do n¡¯t know if it is a copy or a real thing. It is much more practical.
Time passed very quickly when he was carefully appreciating it. After Su Xiaoru appraised the other two works, he came over and asked her softly, "Brother, is this work difficult to appraise?"
Zhou Xia smiled slightly and said, "It's really difficult. I'm trying to identify what words are written on it."
Su Xiaoru immediately laughed when she heard this and said, "Fortunately, I feel that Zhu Zhishan's cursive script is not as difficult to read as Zhang Ruitu and Xie Dong. Their calligraphy is called ghost-painted peach charms."
Zhou Xia said, "That's their style. I'll go see what's going on at Uncle Xu's side."
Su Xiaoru nodded and agreed that after she finished appraising the painting, it would not be too late to go to them for advice.
Xu Yaohui was very slow in appraising Zhu Zhishan¡¯s works before, but for the few remaining pieces, his speed was much faster. Zhou Xia just saw that he had finished the appraisal, and then went over to discuss it with him.
Xu Yaohui also felt that Zhou Xia¡¯s appraisal speed was relatively fast. Before Zhou Xia could speak, Xu Yaohui asked him, ¡°Zhou Xia, what do you think of these works?¡±
Zhou Xia didn¡¯t show off, and replied directly, ¡°They are all old things. The owner of this store deserves the title of conscience in the industry!¡±
Xu Yaohui burst out laughing when he heard this, and nodded in agreement with his judgment, "It is indeed quite rare. The old items presented as samples, whether they are imitations or genuine items, are of considerable value, and cannot be compared with modern high-imitation items. How can I get it?" Shy and giving people a headache, this Lao Wang really gives people problems. He knows that I can't resist the temptation, but he still comes up with something like this to seduce me."
Zhou Xia said, "Everyone must know by now that Uncle Xu has received a piece of Xuande Qinghua, and it will be auctioned in autumn, so there is no need to worry about lack of money."
Xu Yaohui shook his head helplessly, "Yes, Yuqing and the others have done a very good job in publicity. Not only did they release the news, but the auction catalog was also sent to the collectors in Donghai as soon as possible. But when the autumn auction is over and the money is received, I don¡¯t know how long I have to wait. These daysAmong the works, I am more optimistic about the cursive poems by Zhu Zhishan and the paintings by Zhang Rui. Although the other two works are both on old paper and old ink, I feel that they lack charm and do not look like authentic works. Zhou Xia, what do you think? "
Zhou Xia said, "Uncle Xu has a good eye. I have not practiced calligraphy since I was a child, and I have not studied it deeply, but I can also see that the other two works have traces of imitation in them, which are similar to Wen Zhengming and Xing Dong." There are still some differences between his calligraphy works. But I can't find any fault with the two works that Uncle Xu mentioned. They should be genuine. Zhu Zhishan's miscellaneous poems have a unique cursive style that cannot be copied by others even if they want to. "Zhang Ruitu's cursive writing also has his usual effect of mercury to ward off evil and eliminate disasters. "
Xu Yaohui said happily, "Zhou Xia, you think so too! That's the best thing. Personally, I prefer Zhu Zhishan's cursive script. I feel that it has the style and charm of the two kings but is not limited to it. Only those who have really practiced it can understand it clearly." , It¡¯s not easy to copy, and it¡¯s even more difficult to surpass innovation.¡±
"It's just!" Xu Yaohui's face was a little solemn. "The price of this genuine product will definitely not be low. If Lao Wang is willing to take out his final product, he will never be as easy to fool as Lao Wang before. I guess, this time it will not be low." It¡¯s impossible to bleed, and this decision is really not easy to make.¡±
"This is actually the norm, buy real things and pay real prices!" Zhou Xia said. Although he often made mistakes after having the archaeological identification system, he could not deny this fact. In reality, it is more often the case that after paying a high price, what you buy are imitations of Xiamen products. After all, it is a rare and small probability event to find something missing.
Xu Yaohui chuckled, "You're right, buy real things at real prices. Only choose the right ones, don't buy expensive ones. When you encounter something you really like, no matter how high the price is, you have to grit your teeth and get it. I'll go and talk to Lao Wang right away. Let¡¯s talk, that old fox might be waiting for me to take the bait, but I foolishly sent him forward. By the way, Zhou Xia, what price do you think is most appropriate for these two paintings?¡±
Zhou Xia was a little surprised and immediately asked him, "Uncle Xu, do you plan to take down the two paintings together?"
"It's rare to come across such a good thing, so of course I have to get it, otherwise, I may not have such an opportunity again in the future. I won't think about whether it makes money or not. I want to buy it and collect it. No matter what the old man likes it I play with porcelain, but now I also practice calligraphy every day. Since this cursive calligraphy by Zhu Zhishan is authentic, it is most suitable to buy it as a gift to him. Of course, Zhou Xia, if you like to buy it for collection, just tell me. I'll give it to you." Xu Yaohui's eyes were intense and he spoke straight to the point.
"I'm far from reaching that level. I still have to work hard to recognize all the cursive writing on it. Now that Uncle Xu has made up his mind to buy it, just buy it. I think the two works can be compared to one hundred. If you get it within 10,000 yuan, it will be considered worth it." Everyone said that a gentleman is a beautiful man. Xu Yaohui bought it to honor Xu Zhendong, how could Zhou Xia snatch it away. Furthermore, Zhou Xia doesn't have that much money now. If he admires it, he already has it, and he doesn't necessarily have to get it.
Xu Yaohui replied, "It's similar to my psychological valuation. Tong Xia, just wait for my good news. If you really buy it, we really have to celebrate."
Zhou Xia finally figured it out, and Xu Yaohui was really determined to win. Zhou Xia felt that she had some new understanding of Xu Yaohui. When I first heard about him, Xu Yaohui was what Xu Zhendong said was a prodigal and someone who didn't do his job properly. However, after getting to know him later, I felt that he was a pretty good person, he knew the world and was easy to deal with.
Now, Zhou Xia knows that Xu Yaohui's financial situation is tight. If he really wants to go all out and buy these two paintings, he has no choice but to raise money. But he knew this and still persisted in collecting it. What kind of spirit is this. (To be continued
