Chapter 154： How to turn one picture into two

"Our paintings and calligraphy in China use ink, which means that ink will penetrate the paper. Many times we paint and write on the surface of the paper. In fact, it may have penetrated the entire sheet of paper. In this case, I There is a master who can peel the paper into several layers, which means that one painting can become two paintings or even three paintings. The difference between these three paintings is very small, often only in terms of ink color. Others Whether it’s brushwork or style, it’s all exactly the same."

"This is the case with the two paintings in front of me. Someone uses this method to turn one painting into two paintings. Under normal circumstances, the ink color is definitely different, but because these are ancient paintings, they are hundreds of years old. After time, the difference in ink color has become very small. If you don't look carefully, it is impossible to see it!"

Mao Peng and Zhao Sheng were stunned. They didn't expect that this was the case at all. But just thinking about it, it really makes sense. Only in this way can we explain why the two paintings in front of us are exactly the same no matter how they look, because they are all from The same person’s hands are not the same, and it’s unreasonable. In fact, so many people, including themselves, can’t tell which one is true and which one is false. The pictures are all real!

"This technique is very common in the collection of ancient calligraphy and painting."

"There have been many stories in this regard. For example, someone lent an ancient painting to someone he knew well, or gave it to a certain auction house or even a familiar appraiser for them to produce appraisal and keep it. One day they wanted to return to the painting, there is no doubt at all, they did not think that the top layer of their painting has been removed by others, and what they held in their hands was the next-level genuine product, which was tantamount to being stolen away by others. An authentic piece."

"If the person who has left the original work just appreciates it by himself, and is not left out at all, others will definitely not be able to detect it. But once it appears, the two paintings are placed together, which one is the real one and which one is the fake one. Maybe it’s silly and not clear."

Tang Miaomiao has heard too many stories like this. There are many such things in ancient calligraphy and calligraphy. Some masters are experts. A painting can be divided into three or more. The top layer can be re-framed and kept for yourself. If you come down or return it to the original owner, the remaining two layers can definitely be faked through color supplementation and other techniques. This time is equivalent to two more ancient paintings. The opportunity is suitable to sell and make money, and the profit is full. This is absolutely No business.

"In fact, it is easy to judge whether this is the case or not. Just find a master who mounts, remove the place where the two paintings were mounted, and look at the thickness of the drawing paper, and you can tell immediately."

Tang Miaomiao knew that this kind of thing was actually easy to judge.

Mao Peng and Zhao Sheng, look at me, I look at you, and finally sighed together.

"It seems this should be the case!"

"I didn't expect it to be such a thing!"

Mao Peng and Zhao Sheng are masters of calligraphy and painting, and they are not at all ambiguous in terms of mounting. They are also masters. They worked together and quickly took apart the mounting and mounting of the two paintings. After a glance, there was nothing wrong with the painting paper. It's definitely stripped.

Both Mao Peng and Zhao Sheng were a little depressed. When something like this happened, none of them were winners. After so many years of ancient paintings, it has been difficult to tell which one has clearer ink and which one is slightly worse. In a word, it is impossible to tell which painting is the top layer of paper. What is more important is not this, but that a good painting has been tossed into this way. For the two masters of calligraphy and painting Said, this is the most sad thing.

"You guys who play antique collection are really too much!"

"Everything like this can be done!"

"A beautiful painting turned out to be like this."

Zhao Sheng complained.

"Lao Zhao, you directly say that this kind of thing is done by our antique collectors. Isn't it a bit unfair?"

"Except for the person involved, no one knows what happened. Maybe you calligraphers and painters did it!"

Tang Miaomiao absolutely does not carry this kind of pot. This kind of thing is simply a headless case, and no one knows who did it.

Zhao Sheng couldn't speak, this was a matter of uncontested evidence, he was just complaining.

"This is a good thing!"

"One painting becomes two paintings!"

Song Yun smiled and hit a round.

Although Zhao Sheng and Mao Peng are very depressed, they are a foregone conclusion. There is no way. Although the two paintings are from one painting, now that they are separated, it is impossible to stick back and become one painting. The world There is no such master in the world. One piece of paper is peeled into two pieces. Some people can do it, but if you stick it back, it is not a human job.

Mao Peng and Zhao Sheng were willing to take a bet and let Peng Guo get two paintings. They were all large-scale fine works.

Tang Miaomiao was very happy and carefully collected it. He came here today to sell paper, and he did not expect such an unexpected harvest.

"Song Yun, where did you come from?"

"You have such eyesight?"

Zhao Sheng was very surprised. He, including some so-called experts in appraisal, had been tossing for several months, but he didn't figure out what was going on. Song Yun spent less than two hours and immediately figured it out.

"Zhu Deyuan and Xu Desheng, do you know these two people? Experts in the appraisal, known as masters, I think they lived as a dog at a young age, or they were in vain. After studying here for half a month, they said nothing. Come out, I don’t know the situation at all."

Mao Peng began to fire.

Song Yun couldn’t answer. Zhu Deyuan and Xu Desheng not only knew but knew them, they were both their own seniors. Mao Peng and them were of the same generation or even higher. It’s no surprise to yell at them. They are a junior, that’s not. Can say anything.

Zhao Sheng and Mao Peng cursed for a while before they stopped.

"what?"

"correct!"

"Song Yun Tang girl, what do you two come here today?"

Mao Peng's mouth was dry. When he stopped to drink tea, he remembered that Song Yun and Tang Miaomiao must have something to do with them. They weren't called by themselves, and they didn't go to the Three Treasures Hall.

At this time, Peng Guo finally had the opportunity to tell the matter quickly.

"what?"

"Is there no problem with my ears?"

"Am I wrong? Do you have golden millet paper in your hand?"

"How is this possible?!"

Zhao Sheng immediately jumped up from the sofa.

"Sure it's from the Song Dynasty?"

"Is this not a mistake?"

"Many people imitated this kind of paper in later generations, wouldn't it be this kind?"

Mao Peng was also taken aback. This is simply impossible, unless Song Yun and Tang Miaomiao's golden millet paper is a copy of later generations. If it is the batch of Song Dynasty, it is absolutely incredible.
