Chapter 729 Goodbye High Imitation
Fang Chenglong, the richest man in Jiangnan, presented a scroll.
Guan Haishan unfolded the scroll and was excited when he saw the paper.
But then when he saw the ink color, Gu Bo frowned.
Not only Guan Haishan frowned, but even Lu Fei was shocked.
Not only was he surprised, Lu Fei was even more excited.
The painting is two meters long and seventy centimeters wide. .??.
Ink and pen on paper, titled "Picture of Pine Wind in Ten Thousand Valleys".
This picture depicts the misty pine waves in the south of the Yangtze River, with overlapping alum heads.
Clear springs are flowing in the deep valleys, and the banks of the streams are densely shaded.
Along the winding ridge, there are dense pine forests, with "feng"-shaped pine trees swaying in the wind.
Clouds and mist gathered in the ravine, slowly rising upwards.
There is a water mill under the mountain waterfall and a wooden bridge over the stream, leaving fireworks in this paradise.
High and distant scenery, you can see the creek and pond bridge from the foot of the mountain, and there are several thatched huts nestled among the dense trees.
One of the pavilions is built on a rock and faces the water. There is a man in white sitting in it. From the back of the house, one can see the winding mountain road leading up to the valley.
Between the two mountains and above the valley, there is a huge pavilion. Behind the pavilion is filled with mist, with layers of rocks and trees, and waterfalls and springs.
There are also mountain towers, waterside pavilions, and distant temples and long bridges, nestled in the ravines of Wansong Mountain.
The white space in the center of the painting is surrounded by moss dotted with burnt ink, and the mountains are also separated by moss dotted with burnt ink.
The brush used for the figures in the houses is not as detailed as the previous Tang Dynasty landscape paintings. The ink brushwork has undergone subtle changes and is more vivid.
The composition of Chinese paintings pays attention to "the space is sparse enough to allow horses to race, but the air is airtight."
The pine trees painted in this painting can also be seen in early landscape paintings. The shadows of each tree are expressed individually, resulting in the partial effect of the cross section being scattered.
In the painted stream, there are too many stones, some of the same size, to show the rapid flow of water, which makes it look a bit messy.
In terms of expressing the distance of the scenery in the picture, the author uses ink colors from heavy to light, the scenery from dense to sparse, and the brush strokes from complex to simple.
This painting is exquisitely painted with skillful brushwork.
In the picture, small bridges and flowing water, and ancient temples in the mountains express
It brings out the simplicity and tranquility of Zen thought, making the picture more life-like.
Gaze attentively at the thousands of mountains and valleys on the screen. The pines are like waves. The mountains seem to be flying and the pines seem to be galloping.
The whistling pine wind mixed with the roar of the spring stream has the potential to shake the heaven and the earth.
However, slowly it all began to subside and finally froze.
Until there was only black paper left, green and bright sky, then I realized the flying and noisy.
All kinds of pines and winds are just the appearance of the world, just like the waves and waves stirred up by the sea. The reality of the world is the eternal silence of emptiness and clarity.
This painting has a strong sense of immersion and is definitely the work of an expert.
However, it is a fake.
A fake that can be easily mistaken for the real thing.
The paper of this painting is indeed Song Dynasty Chengxintang paper, and the ink used is Song Dynasty pine smoke ink, but the ink color is not Song Dynasty.
This painting is of the same nature as the "Autumn Mountain Questioning Picture" that Lu Fei encountered in Jincheng.
The original author is also Master Juran.
The ink color is also made of incense ash.
But the copy of this painting is ten thousand times better than that one.
The author deliberately left flaws in the use of brushwork in "Qiu Shan Wen Tu Tu".
But the brushwork used in this painting is flawless. Whether it is the spirit or the rhyme, it can be completely fake.
Although the writing style is fine, the author also left loopholes.
The biggest flaw in this painting is the five words in the title "Picture of Pine Wind in Ten Thousand Valleys".
It’s these five words that make you timid.
Juran is a monk and pays attention to tranquility and nature.
Even inscriptions and seals rarely appear in his works, let alone famous titles.
Painting is a hobby, not for fame or showing off. Titles are simply a burden.
In other words, huge
However, even if the master suddenly becomes fashionable, the famous title will not occupy such a large space.
Therefore, these five words are simply superfluous.
In addition, there is another not obvious but biggest failure.
In the picture, there is a temple in the mountains, and the word "Dan" is actually written on the door.
This is kind of fucking bullshit.
Temple gates generally have no words. ??
If it is a temple that practices Zen Buddhism, there will be a word "Zen" on the door.
But what's going on with the word "single"?
Even if an idiot painted, there would be no such obvious mistakes.
The author who copied this painting is obviously at the level of a top master.
How could such a person make such a low-level mistake?
So all things considered, there is only one possibility.
That is, just like the previous "Qiu Shan Wen Tu Tu", the flaws in the brushwork were all intentional by the author.
Combined with the brushwork, paper, ink color, and copying time, Lu Fei was sure.
This "Picture of Pine Wind in Ten Thousand Valleys" and the "Picture of Asking Questions in Qiu Mountain" that I saw in Jincheng before were 100% created by the same person.
It has nothing to do with Lu Fei whether Fang Chenglong is ashamed or not.
This is the real reason for Lu Fei's excitement.
In Jincheng, Lu Fei asked Wang Yajun.
According to him, his "Qiu Shan Asking Picture" came from Bogu Zhai.
But Lu Fei captured Boguzhai and couldn't find any clues in every corner, including the secret room.
This also dashed Lu Fei's hope of finding Chengxintang Zhi and Song Yanmo.
Now that he has found clues again, Lu Fei is of course excited.
At this moment, Fang Chenglong's heart dropped.
He swallowed and asked cautiously.
"Mr. Guan, what do you think of my painting?"
The onlookers craned their necks one by one, eagerly anticipating what Guan Haishan would say next.
"Why!"
Guan Haishan sighed, and Fang Chenglong broke out in cold sweat.
"The drawing paper is Chengxintang paper from the Song Dynasty. There is no problem with this."
"The ink used is pine smoke ink from the Song Dynasty. This is no problem."
"As for this painting..."
"This painting is an authentic work by Master Ju Ran, a great monk from the Song Dynasty. It's a great treasure and there's no problem with it."
It was not Guan Haishan who said this, but Lu Fei on the side.
When these words were spoken, the whole place fell into silence.
In an instant, everyone looked at Lu Fei.
Especially the way Guan Haishan looked at Lu Fei was full of disbelief.
Lu Fei handed Guan Haishan a signal, and the latter looked embarrassed and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Then, everyone turned their attention to Guan Haishan again.
After all, it was Guan Haishan who saw the painting, and it was Guan Haishan who had the final word on whether it was authentic or not.
"Mr. Guan, is what this little brother said true?" Fang Chenglong asked nervously.
Guan Haishan's expression is wonderful.
He looked at Lu Fei again, and under everyone's gaze, he spoke.
""Ten Thousand Valleys with Pine Winds", Master Ju Ran's... authentic work!"
After saying the word "authentic", Guan Haishan's whole body seemed to be drained of energy in an instant, and he sat down slowly, holding his forehead.
Fang Chenglong, the richest man in Jiangnan, took a long breath.
He quickly took out a tissue and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
The onlookers were full of compliments.
"Here I go, this is actually Master Juran's authentic work. It's really amazing!"
"Fuck, I'm talking as if you understand. Do you know who Master Juran is?"
"hey-hey!"
"Although I don't know who Master Juran is, the name sounds noble enough."
"Besides, this is a birthday gift from Mr. Fang. The items brought by Mr. Fang must not be ordinary."
