Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 27 Picked up a history of famous paintings?Make a fortune!

Seeing all this, Lin Ran was so excited that his heart almost jumped out of his chest!

With such painting skills, isn't this the good thing I have been waiting for for a long time?

After a quick scan, it can be seen from the signature that the paintings include works from the Tang, Song, and Yuan dynasties, and the painting skills are all excellent.

There are those who paint landscapes and landscapes, those who record characters and events, and those who paint stories and legends.

Now I just don’t know if these paintings are authentic. If they are all authentic, I will make a lot of money this time!

After calming down, Lin Ran began to identify the authenticity of the paintings in front of him one by one.

The first thing that hit him was the painting that had just startled him. It was only after Lin Ran took a closer look that he understood what was painted on it.

It's actually a "Zhong Kui's Travel Picture"!

The signature made Lin Ran's eyelids jump wildly. It turned out to be Wu Daozi, a painting sage from the Tang Dynasty.

Wu Daozi's paintings, Li Bai's poems, and Zhang Xu's calligraphy are known as the three masterpieces of the Tang Dynasty. You can imagine how rare they are.

Wu Daozi had extremely high attainments in the art of painting and was called the Saint of Painting by the world.At that time, Wu Daozi was a very innovative painter.

Painting pays attention to refining the shape of objects and painting the temperament of objects. Just like the reason why the Western painter Picasso's Bull is so famous is that it captures this feature and uses this painting technique to the extreme.Wu Daozi is good at summarizing the concave and convex surfaces, yin and yang surfaces in Chinese paintings to the extreme lines.Starting from the inner movement of the object, the lines are outlined in the pen to outline the organizational rules, such as the high, side, deep, oblique, curling, folding, floating and lifting postures of the clothing pattern, and the character of the object is depicted through the outline of the lines.

The biggest feature of Wu Daozi's paintings is the characters' clothes. The clothing patterns painted by Wu Daozi have their own unique characteristics. The clothes painted are like dancing in the wind, forming a dynamic beauty, which is also called unique by later generations. The style of "Wu Dai Dangfeng".

The paper used for scrolls is also Tang Dynasty raw paper. Tang Dynasty raw paper is only used for mounting and painting. Raw paper has strong water absorption and good ink moisturizing properties. It is used for splash-ink painting, freehand painting and cursive calligraphy. The brushstrokes have clear layers, thick, light, and thick. The five colors of dry, wet and dry are all visible and changeable. It is easier to write with hard and thick ink.

When looking at the signature, Lin Ran didn't need to check the seal list, because Lin Ran had already engraved the various seals of these famous people in his mind, and the signature was correct, and everything matched.

There is no doubt that this is "Zhong Kui's Journey" by Wu Daozi, a painting sage from the Tang Dynasty.

Authentic product, a real authentic product passed down from generation to generation!

At this moment, Lin Ran felt a sense of joy in his heart.

This is not just about living a good life, this is about getting rich overnight!

In addition to Wu Daozi's "Picture of Zhong Kui's Journey", the next picture of "Picture of Autumn River and Cold Forest" also attracted Lin Ran's attention.

This "Picture of Autumn River and Cold Forest" has a smooth brush and ink, and the rocks are stained with ink, and the details are slightly outlined with a pen, which truly shows the texture and structure of the rocks. The brush is simple and quick, and the object is highly summarized. .Every brush line, silver hook and iron painting filled with energy is filled with energy and thoughts.

To determine the age of a painting, the material of the silk is an important evidence.

Bamboo paper, Pu paper and some leather papers were especially popular after the Tang Dynasty, and were used in large quantities. Most of them used fine bamboo strips as bamboo curtains for papermaking, raising the pulping degree of the paper to a particularly high standard, but it was made in this way The car will also be very fine and even.

The painting style and paper materials were all suitable. Lin Ran finally confirmed what he had in mind. This "Autumn River and Cold Forest" was the work of Xu Daoning, a famous Northern Song Dynasty artist.

Lin Ran looked along the wall one by one. Even though he was using a flashlight, Lin Ran was also cautious. Firstly, he was frightened by the "Zhong Kui Travel Map" just now. Secondly, the sound of rats chirping always made Lin Ran's back... He felt cold and felt that something was staring at him. Although he looked around with his flashlight and found nothing strange, Lin Ran was still afraid that something would appear.

After Lin Ran identified that the two paintings were undoubtedly authentic, Lin Ran knew that the original owner of the house must be a person who loved painting. After all, Wu Daozi's paintings were always a good thing to grab, no matter what dynasty or generation they were placed in. , it is not easy for the owner to collect these paintings.

Moving on, there is a work by Gao Kegong of the Yuan Dynasty, which is a painting of flowers and birds.There was also a painting from the same period, which was a painting of a lady. Lin Ran briefly checked that it was Ni Yunlin's work.

Now in the darkroom, Lin Ran had no time to identify them one by one. He thought about checking them one by one when he moved the paintings.

But with Lin Ran's experience, even after a few glances, the results were almost the same.Just out of caution, we still need to conduct a detailed appraisal later.

The other two paintings should also be from the Song Dynasty, because Lin Ran had already judged the basic age from the silk paper. Lin Ran took a closer look and found that they were meticulous paintings painted by Fan Kuan, a famous court painter in the Song Dynasty. The fine brushwork painting is even more unique.

Another painting of Xia Gui from the Song Dynasty depicts the Five Sons Winning the First Prize. Xia Gui was also a court painter in the Song Dynasty. However, this painting of the Five Sons Winning the First Prize does not have a royal feel. It seems that Xia Gui painted it for a high-ranking official in the court. A high-ranking official who can hire imperial painters must have an extraordinary status.

Five sons winning the first prize is a big subject, and people in every dynasty have been painting it. However, in ancient times, people were particular about specifications, and people with certain social status could use certain patterns and styles. This habit is also reflected in paintings. Although it can be seen that Xia Gui was invited to The person who painted the picture had an extraordinary status, but the children's accessories in the picture were ordinary, and the decorative patterns were not royal-specific, so Lin Ran judged that the picture should be of a child from a high-ranking official's family.

Relying on his own experience, Lin Ran firmly concluded that except for Wu Daozi's "Zhong Kui's Journey" and Xu Daoning's "Autumn River and Cold Forest", the other paintings are from the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, and are undoubtedly authentic.

In the previous life, paintings from the Tang Dynasty could be sold for about 7000 to 3000 million, while paintings from the Song Dynasty could be sold for around 1000 to [-] million, and paintings from the Yuan Dynasty were probably around [-] million. Of course, these are ordinary ancient paintings. If Works by famous artists are priceless treasures.

For example, the painting "Zhong Kui's Journey" by Wu Daozi that I have in my hand now would have been easy to photograph two or three small targets in my previous life.

And Xu Daoning's paintings may fetch 7000 to [-] million. Of course, this was all in the previous life. In this era, the purchasing power would definitely not be worth that much, but it is definitely expensive!

Thinking that he had really lost his temper, Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh out loud in the cellar, and was no longer afraid of the spooky horror in the cellar.

Bet right!

This time I really made the right bet!
