Siheyuan: Want to force me to vacate the house?No way!

And this kind of painting and calligraphy has its own particularity, which is different from ancient porcelain and pottery, which can be mass-produced.

There is often only one piece of calligraphy and painting, which is either true or false. All the same things that appear after a thing is identified as true are considered fakes, because a person draws a picture and writes a picture. Words, unless it is a waste manuscript, otherwise I will not draw or write it a second time.

For example, Wang Xizhi's Preface to the Lanting Collection, even after 60 or [-] years, the real thing has not been found yet, while imitations are emerging one after another.

Guo Shixuan thinks that the probability that the one in his hand is genuine is relatively good, because the perspective skills can not deceive him, and the so-called genuine one that is broken and seen may not be the real one.

But there was something suspicious about the thing in front of him, Guo Shixuan couldn't tell.

"Brother Hou, I'm not sure that these things of mine are real, because look at the quality of the paper." Guo Shixuan pinched a corner of the painting and pondered it a few times in his hand.

"The quality of the paper? Is there something wrong with this paper?" Broken Hou really ignored this problem. After Guo Shixuan reminded him, he picked up the magnifying glass in his hand and looked at it.

"This paper is obviously not as thick as Tang Dynasty paper, but more like Qing Dynasty. Moreover, you can see the pattern of this paper with a magnifying glass in your hand, and the pattern of this paper is more inclined to Qing Dynasty."

"Why?" Broken Hou really didn't study paper, so he didn't notice the paper used for the painting.

"Because the ancients were willing to make thick paper rather than thin paper, no matter which dynasty they were in, because the probability of making thin paper without being stained by ink was relatively low. To put it bluntly, the technology of papermaking was immature. It’s not like our current paper, at least it’s much better than it was then.”

"In order to avoid being scolded by the government or the people, they would rather make some thicker paper."

"It's more natural for a painter to use paper. In this way, he can avoid his own ink smearing to the greatest extent, or force through the back of the paper and pierce the paper. No matter how good the painting is, it will be a waste manuscript." Guo Shixuan preached to the Poor Hou.

In fact, he didn't know these things before, and he just relied on the tip of the iceberg in the master's knowledge of appraising treasures in his mind.

This master-level knowledge of appraising treasures really has everything, including some unpopular, unpopular, or accidental things that are all reflected in it.

Poor Hou was a little engrossed when listening to Guo Shixuan telling him, he forgot to look at the patterns on the paper in front of him.

"It makes sense, you continue to talk." Poor Hou nodded and said.

"it is good!"

"In the painting in front of us, the paper we see should be Goryeo paper, and this kind of paper is usually used for paying tribute to the royal family in the Qing Dynasty."

"Korea paper is generally made of cotton and silkworm cocoons, unlike the paper made in our country, which is mixed with bark and grass roots, so it is rough and the quality is not as good as that made in Korea. paper."

"Goryo paper is moderately thick, but very tough, so it's fine for writing or drawing."

"This Koryo paper has a characteristic, that is, the grain is thicker and wider, which is different from the thinner paper made in our country. So it is easy to distinguish."

"Now look at this piece of paper. Although it is thicker than Goryeo paper, it is obviously Goryeo paper from the patterns and lines, and it does not look like the paper made in our country." Guo Shixuan gave him the knowledge popularized a bit.

"Then you mean that this paper is made of Goryeo paper instead of ordinary straw paper?" Poor Hou understood what Guo Shixuan was talking about.

"Yes! There was no Goryeo paper in the Tang Dynasty, this kind was only available in the Qing Dynasty!"

"How could Wu Daozi of the Tang Dynasty use the Goryeo paper of the Qing Dynasty?" Guo Shixuan asked rhetorically.

The tattered Hou was silent, and he was also thinking about what Guo Shixuan said.

"Um…"

"What you said is indeed reasonable. If what you said is true, then it can be concluded from the paper that it is a fake, because it is impossible for Wu Daozi to use paper from the Qing Dynasty." Poor Hou
"But as you said, he is too much like Wu Daozi's. Antiques can't be generalized. Many conditions must be used to determine, and these conditions are very strict. No matter which one is violated, it is wrong. "

"So I asked if there are half-truths and half-fake paintings?" Guo Shixuan was also a little helpless.

"Half-truths and half-false words definitely don't exist, and I don't understand that." Poor Hou also shook his head and said.

"Then do you think this will work?" Guo Shixuan pondered for a while, since there are now two pictures of sending the son of the heavenly king, it is better to put the two pictures together for comparison.

"I know what you want to say!" Poor Hou Miao understood Guo Shixuan's meaning.

"Then tell me, what do I want to say?" Guo Shixuan smiled.

"You must want to ask, can you also bring the picture of sending the son of the heavenly king over, and then compare it, right?" Poor Hou guessed.

"You can also take me to see it." Guo Shixuan added.

"This..." Poor Hou hesitated.

"What's the matter? Is this difficult?" Guo Shixuan asked suspiciously.

"It's not difficult, it's just that the old man who collected this person has a weird temper, and I don't want to provoke him easily. If there is nothing good, or if he doesn't have any new treasures, I don't want to go find it." Him." Poor Hou smiled wryly.

"Why? Who is this person? What kind of strange method?" Guo Shixuan asked after hesitation.

If this person is really unreasonable, then he is not willing to provoke others, just study slowly on his own, and he can always come up with a result, but if it is about other problems, then he thinks he can still try it.

After all, I am still very interested in this painting. It would be great if I could research a result sooner.

"This person is similar to my background, but he is more punctual than mine. This person is not like me. People at such an old age like antiques, but they like to start collecting when they are old."

"This person has a characteristic, that is, he cannot be questioned or refuted by others, and he will do whatever he says." Poor Hou said with a wry smile.

"Then what he said is true, even if it is false, is it true?" Guo Shixuan immediately questioned his words.

And his question is probably the first question that many people make after hearing this question.
