"This seems to be a true pottery figurine from the Northern Wei Dynasty!"
Qin Luo thought secretly in his heart.
In fact, he also has certain appraisal abilities. When his father was still alive, he also taught him many things.
Although the Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines are not well-known in the market, they are actually cultural relics. If they are genuine, their value is basically between 800,000 and 2 million.
"How much do you want to sell?"
Qin Luo asked curiously.
"50,000 yuan!"
Sun Fu said nervously that he only wanted 50,000 yuan.
Naturally, the prices sold in this kind of museum cannot be the same as those sold outside.
Outsiders are interested in the curiosity and hunting mentality of some cultural relic enthusiasts. If the price is too high, it will not be sold, but it will make customers more willing to bargain, which will increase the risk.
Therefore, in the antique market, he is a migrant worker who does not understand the true value of this pottery figurine. He even takes into account the psychology of those antique lovers who pick up leaks. Only by letting them find the pleasure of picking up leaks can he sell it quickly and pursue The key is to win by quantity.
But this is not the case in this kind of museum. He behaves like he cherishes this antique very much, and even wants to pay a high price for it.
A migrant worker dug up a treasure on a construction site. If he only had 2,000 yuan, it would be fake.
50,000 yuan?
Qin Luo thought secretly.
This one is not expensive.
but,
He doesn't have that much money.
The museum's business has been better these days, and now he has more than 20,000 yuan in hand.
But there is still some distance between it and 50,000 yuan.
His eyes turned.
Qin Luo saw Zhang Guowen not far away.
"professor Zhang!"
Qin Luo shouted.
Sun Fu on the side suddenly frowned.
professor Zhang?
Are there professors in this museum?
What professor?
He followed Qin Luo's cry and looked over, only to see a middle-aged man running this way.
Sun Fu didn't know Zhang Guowen. If he was someone like Liu Yang who often participated in TV shows, he might still know him, but he didn't know Zhang Guowen, a professor from Qinghua University.
After all, he himself cannot be considered a member of the cultural relics circle. Chong Shi is a cultural relics dealer on the edge of the cultural relics circle.
"What's wrong, Xiao Qin?"
"There is a Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurine here. Would you like to give it a look?"
"Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines?"
Zhang Guowen also became interested, and he just lay here and started reading without using his hands.
Sun Fu was a little panicked.
What's going on with this little boss? Why did he find an outsider to spy on him?
The more he thought about it, the more panicked Sun Fu felt.
"Boss, do you want it or not? If not, I'll take it and show it to others!"
He seemed to be panicking because of Professor Zhang Guowen's sudden appearance and the large number of people, who had never seen much of the world.
"Brother, don't worry. This is Professor Zhang Guowen from the History Department of Qinghua University. Let him take a look. If it is really a Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurine, I will take it and give you some more money, 100,000. After all, you It’s not easy to make some money!”
boom!
Sun Fu's brain shook with a bang.
Qinghua... Qinghua University? professor?
Damn it!
What if he finds out it's fake?
But soon, he figured it out.
If it turns out to be fake, forget it and won’t sell it to this family.
Damn it, how come there is a professor from Qinghua University in such a small museum, and he is from the history department.
He has been around a lot in the past few days, maybe because he didn't pay much attention to Zhang Guowen and the others.
After all, who would have thought that such a small museum could hire a professor from Qinghua University.
and,
What happened to the professor at Qinghua University?
How many so-called experts have failed to realize that his pottery figurines are fake.
If the professor from Qinghua University also had an eye for it, then this business would still be successful.
After all, he is just a migrant worker who accidentally picked up a treasure.
With an uneasy mood, Sun Fu watched Zhang Guowen look at the pottery figurines.
I saw Zhang Guowen frowning for a while and thinking deeply for a while.
"It's strange. The texture of this pottery figurine is very similar, including the texture of the soil, which is like the soil from Mang Mountain, but..."
Zhang Guowen murmured to himself.
This sentence directly made Sun Fu nervous.
Did you see it?
He wasn't afraid that he would be found out as a liar, but this business was probably ruined.
Qin Luo was also looking at Zhang Guowen.
"What's wrong? Professor Zhang!"
It was just a simple pottery figurine. What he saw should be real. Someone of Professor Zhang's level should be able to tell it at a glance. However, Jean found that Professor Zhang was very hesitant, so he asked.
Zhang Guowen said:
“This pottery figurine is very similar to the pottery figurines from the Northern Wei Dynasty!”
Sun Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time felt contempt in his heart.
What about the professors at Qinghua University? No, I still didn’t see that this was fake.
However, immediately, I heard Zhang Guowen continue:
"But it stands to reason that even if the Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines are excavated, it is unlikely to be in Sioux City. This place has nothing to do with the Northern Wei Dynasty, and some details of this pottery figurine are not in line with the culture of the Northern Wei Dynasty!"
Identify an artifact.
The first is from the material and process technology itself.
For pottery figurines that are purely hand-made, it is difficult to judge the technique.
Therefore, it is more important to go back to the era to which this cultural relic belongs and carefully identify whether this cultural relic conforms to the logic of that era.
If everything matches, then it is most likely authentic.
When it comes to cultural relic identification, you can't really dig out ancient people from the ground and ask them whether you painted this or made this.
Therefore, as long as most cultural relic experts can determine that it is authentic from the details, its value will become the value of the authenticity.
The capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty was DT City in today's SX Province.
The rulers at that time were not Han, but Xianbei.
It's the group named Tuoba.
In order to strengthen the absorption and integration of Han culture, the rulers of the Northern Wei Dynasty at that time promoted the prosperity and development of culture and art. The art of pottery figurines reached a peak during the Pingcheng Period of the Northern Wei Dynasty and became one of the important art forms during this period.
There are two main types of pottery figurines in this period, one is the underworld pottery figurines, and the other is the commemorative pottery figurines.
If what Sun Fu said is true, then this pottery figurine should belong to the underworld pottery figurine, that is, a sacrificial pottery figurine.
In fact, the technology of the pottery figurines in the Northern Wei Dynasty was very high, and details such as skin color, muscles, and even clothing were all processed very delicately.
And the reason why Zhang Guowen was confused.
It is because the pottery figurines of that era should have Xianbei culture. Even if the other party wants to learn Han culture, they cannot not retain a little bit of local culture.
Therefore, the real pottery figurines of the Northern Wei Dynasty have a strong ethnic minority color. In addition, the Rouran Khanate at that time often threatened the Northern Wei Dynasty physically and forced the Northern Wei Dynasty to make some compromises. Therefore, in addition to the characteristics of the Xianbei people, the culture of the Northern Wei Dynasty at that time should also have the characteristics of the Xianbei people. With some prairie culture style.
But the pottery figurines in front of us now have no corresponding culture at all.
If it is not from the Northern Wei Dynasty, pottery figurines from other periods rarely use such a shape.
