When many ancient painters painted, they did not have a clear picture, but only a theme. Although I will compose the picture in advance, there are also situations where I overturn all the previous compositions as I draw.
Especially for masters like Jing Hao, who even Wu Daozi didn't think highly of. When painting, he would be casual and paint two trees where he originally wanted to paint a house, and put two trees where he originally wanted to paint a figure. , replaced by a strange stone... this is all possible.
As for what to do with the originally conceived painting?
Wouldn't it be enough to just draw another one?
"Autumn Evening in Chushan Mountain" doesn't have to have houses and people to feel autumnal. Isn't the painting in front of me also full of autumnal atmosphere?
As for why Huang Gongwang wrote a poem specifically for "Chu Mountain Autumn Evening Picture" on this painting... He Ren guessed that Huang Gongwang might have obtained two works by Jing Hao and discovered the connection between them, so he used To hint in this way is probably a small thought among literati.
For example, Su Shi's very famous poem "A few peach blossoms outside the bamboo is a foreteller of the warm water in the spring river. The ground is covered with wormwood and short reed buds, which is when the puffer fish is about to come."
In fact, it is a poem about painting.
This poem was written by Su Shi for "Spring River Evening Intention" by Hui Chong, a famous painter in the early Song Dynasty. "Spring River Evening Intention" is composed of two paintings: "Spring River Duck Play" and "Spring River Flying Geese".
But there is still a problem, that is, He Ren is just guessing. He cannot be sure whether it is true or false, and there is no way to convince others.
But it is not impossible. The simplest thing is to wait for He Ren's treasure appraisal eye to reach a high level. Then there will be various sources and supporting evidence. If you look for it in a targeted manner, you should be able to find strong evidence.
More complicated methods will have to wait. When He Ren's fame and prestige become higher and higher, and he gets to know more and more experts, He Ren's guess will gain more and more support...
It's not a clique game, but this painting does conform to Jing Hao's style and technique. Huang Gongwang's inscription and postscript are also fine. He Ren's guess is the only reasonable explanation.
As Sherlock Holmes said, when you eliminate all impossibilities, whatever remains is the truth no matter how improbable it is.
Of course, if He Ren takes this painting, he will never sell it. After all, it may be a national treasure passed down from generation to generation. You can always keep it as a family heirloom, or you can secretly show it off. If you sell it, you may have to go in and use a sewing machine.
I just don’t know if He Ren will complete the mission if he goes in...
When Zhou Wei raised the price to 4 million, He Ren hesitated for a few minutes, and when the beautiful host was about to drop the hammer, he shouted 4.1 million.
Then Zhou Wei didn't dare to raise his sign...
He Ren excitedly took out a bank card and handed it to the staff. He kept his eyes on the silk painting in front of him, for fear that the organizer would change the contract.
"Don't worry, nothing like this will happen here." Xu Qingjie smiled, "So, you made a mistake?"
He Ren nodded, "It shouldn't be a loss. At least Huang Gongwang's poems must be true. His calligraphy is worth hundreds of thousands. Jing Hao's paintings, even if they are copied, can be sold for several million."
Xu Qingjie shut up. He Ren knew that he was asking for Chen Zheng. Chen Zheng was a bit petty and Xu Qingjie didn't want him to bear a grudge against He Ren.
It wasn't until Jing Hao's painting came into his hands that He Ren felt relieved, and then he said goodbye. He didn't want to continue to have contact with Chen Zheng.
Xu Qingjie asked He Ren and others to get into his car. As soon as they got in the car, Xu Qingjie said bluntly, "I want to go to your house."
He Ren glanced at Xu Qingjie's female companion, and then looked at Xu Qingjie in horror, "What do you want to do?"
Xu Qingjie was stunned, and then said with a look of disgust, "What are you thinking about? I want to see those autographed photos."
He Ren felt relieved, "Are you that anxious?"
"Urgent, who knows if you will just sell things to others? I want to pick them out first."
"I haven't taken it for appraisal yet. If something goes wrong, I won't pay compensation."
Xu Qingjie curled his lips and said, "Can you still run away? If I encounter a counterfeit, I will come directly to the door..."
He Ren had no choice but to ask Xu Qingjie to send Zhang Nuo and Liu Fei home, and then took Xu Qingjie and his female companion to the house he rented.
Although He Ren's home is relatively clean among bachelors, with no messy takeout boxes and drink bottles on the table, and no paper balls of unknown meaning on the floor, He Ren can clearly feel a look of disgust on Xu Qingjie's female companion's face. , almost the same as when He Ren and the others entered Han Feng's house.
He Ren's old face turned red. He was now a multi-millionaire, and he still had a national treasure that was suspected to be handed down from generation to generation. He should move to another place to live.
The house he rents now is a bit damp and does not have the conditions to preserve silk paintings. He needs to move to a dry place that is protected from light and dust. It is best to get a thermostat. Generally speaking, calligraphy and painting works, especially those that are hundreds of years old, For calligraphy and painting, the temperature should be maintained at 15-18℃, and the relative humidity should be 55%-65%.
Of course, He Ren's top priority is to go to Nanjing and ask Mr. Zhao to personally help re-frame the painting before it can be preserved.
He Ren threw the travel bag containing letters and signed photos to Xu Qingjie, and went to the balcony to make a phone call. He wanted to make an appointment in advance.
As soon as Mr. Zhao heard that it might be a painting by Jing Hao, he immediately got up and came to Beijing. He Ren was startled. He didn't dare to let Mr. Zhao bother. He quickly promised that he would fly there tomorrow, and then he turned off the car and killed Mr. Zhao directly. Thoughts about coming here...
When He Ren returned to the room, he found that Xu Qingjie had picked out twenty or thirty envelopes. He opened them and took a look. Good guy, most of them were signed photos.
Among them are those of Monroe, Hepburn and the mustachioed Fuhrer.
He Ren immediately became unhappy and took back the signed photos of Monroe and Hepburn, "You can choose whatever else you want, but I want to keep these two for myself."
With a constipated expression on his face, Xu Qingjie had no choice but to pick out two stills from "Forrest Gump" and "War and Peace", which were signed by Tom Hanks and Audrey Hepburn, but the price was greatly discounted. It is relatively recent and was signed during the promotion period, so there are relatively many of them in existence.
Seeing Xu Qingjie pick out seven or eight letters and a few photos and transfer three million to He Ren, his female companion's eyes turned green and she asked softly, "Is it so valuable?"
"The main reason is that it's hard to find." Xu Qingjie put the things away. "The content is quite ordinary. For example, Einstein's letter is about an appointment with someone for an experiment... and Puccini, it is a love letter written to his lover. . Hey, Lao He, I heard that you are going to Nanjing? Do you want to buy a house? "
He Ren had just booked the ticket and said casually, "I'm going to take the painting over to Mr. Zhao for a look on the plane tomorrow morning. The previous collector kept it in average, and I want to reframe it. I must buy the house. This house is too trendy. Yes, paintings are easy to damage."
Xu Qingjie chuckled and said, "Give me that signed photo of Monroe, and I can introduce you to a good place."
He Ren is numb, is he so in love?
