My system is not decent

Chapter 1500
The single piece of rubbings with stele inscriptions had the highest transaction price, which was "Twenty Items of Longmen", which fetched 11 yuan.

In 2003, the Maritime Museum spent huge sums of money to acquire Song Tuo's "Chunhua Ge Tie".

There have been "dark horses" in the auction of stele extensions. For example, Hanhai auctioned the rubbings of "Wang Ji's Remnant Stele" in the Three Kingdoms, which was sold for 34.1 yuan.

And Dahai's Jiatai's "Xiyutang Fatie" is the highest price Chen Wenzhe knows, reaching 82.5 yuan.

Compared with oil painting and calligraphy and painting, there are too few investors involved in the collection of inscriptions, and the investment vitality is not obvious, mainly researchers, calligraphers and painters.

Perhaps stele extensions are really just a collection, a collection with a deep cultural complex, rather than the best investment market.

It is also because of these reasons that the Beituo market has been tepid.

It seems that this is also the reason why Li Tianqiang was able to buy so many stele extensions.

The price is not expensive, and you can buy so many things that are worth a look.

In case there is another one in it that is genuine, it will be a huge profit.

Not to mention other things, just for these ancient arts, we also need to have a good understanding of the inscriptions of the past dynasties.

From the perspective of the overall understanding of the inscriptions, the appreciation is also from the outside to the inside, with continuous deepening.

The line of sight shifted to a stack of rubbings. Obviously, these rubbings are a bit technical, not fake at first glance.

The Song and Yuan Dynasties to Tuo Runan Zhi, Zao Shi turned over the Confucian Temple.

I once heard the theory from Meng Zhuang, and the ancients have passed on and died.

This poem is about Yu Shinan's calligraphy. Yu Shinan was the first of the four masters in the early Tang Dynasty. His calligraphy had a great influence on Tang Dynasty calligraphy, and Li Shimin also respected him very much.

But because of the long history, Yu Shinan's calligraphy, and the few scattered posts today are also good and bad.

The meaning of this poem is to say that Yu Shinan's "Princess Runan's Epitaph Manuscript" written in ink is not the authentic one, but a copy of it from the Song Dynasty.

And Yu Shinan's "Confucius Temple Stele" is not the original rubbing, but a re-engraved and re-engraved rubbing.

Mr. Qi Gong, the author of this poem, lamented that he once heard Zhuangzi say that if the deeds of the ancients were not passed down to later generations, then this person would not be known to later generations, and this is the real death.

Yu Shinan, as the leader of the four great masters in the early Tang Dynasty, no matter how many posts exist, whether it is true or not, at least we will always remember this character.

Therefore, every time Qi Lao sees new ancient calligraphy inscriptions come out, he will be very excited.

Later, Mr. Qi Gong made a self-note to this poem: The epitaph of Princess Runan of Yu Shinan, which was seen in the remittances, has an ink-printed version handed down in modern times, which has been photocopied.

The original is now in the Maritime Museum. In [-], I heard from experts in the museum that it was indeed a Song Dynasty copy. Fortunately, I judged it from the photocopied copy in the past.

However, the method of imitation is all there, even in photocopies, it can also be distinguished, and there is no need to check the quality of the paper.

"Princess Runan's Epitaph" Mr. Qi Gong once saw it (rubbing version) in the post, and later came out an ink copy, which was claimed to be the authentic work.

At that time, Mr. Qigong judged from the photocopy that the so-called authentic work was just a copy of later generations.

This ink copy was later collected in the Haihai Museum. In 1972, the museum asked experts to identify it. In fact, it was a copy of the Song Dynasty, not the authentic one.

With the help of the photocopied copy, Mr. Qigong can tell that this post was copied by later generations without looking at the real copy, so it can be seen that the copied method is really ordinary.

Because, for a really good method of copying, you must hold the original and look carefully at the light to see the traces of copying.

In Yushu, temple steles are the most prominent, and the original stones have been dead for a long time, and most of them are from Shaanxi.

However, I copied it from Yu Shu, knowing it for sure, but not knowing why. Compared with Tang Shi's remnants, its distortion is obvious.

I don't know who made the copy of Chengwu's engraved copy, but it is similar to the Tang Dynasty stone. Unfortunately, the stone surface has been hammered and polished so much that only the frame remains, and the strokes are too thin, which looks like a dry bone.

Photocopies of the temple steles in the Tang Dynasty were widely circulated, but unfortunately they are the original stones and re-engraved copies.

However, looking at the "Yellow Valley Inscriptions and Postscripts", there are many records of matching and matching, and it is known that the original stone engraved in the Tang Dynasty must have been cut off in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Ji Shitie used to store the treasure book of Shiqu, after several catastrophes, is it still in the world?

In the following self-note, Mr. Qi Gong also talked about other works of Yu Shinan.

Yu Shinan's "Confucius Temple Stele" is the most famous and influential. Unfortunately, the original stone was destroyed early. Now the most seen is the overweight edition of Shaanxi Wang Yan.

It's a pity that imitators know Yu Shinan's calligraphy but don't know why.

Because compared with the original stone and the remnant, the distortion is obvious.

There is also a "Confucius Temple Stele" unearthed in Chengwu County, Qilu. This stele was excavated in the river, and it is relatively similar to the original stone fragment.

But it's a pity that the wear and tear is severe, and only the frame is left, and the strokes have been worn down so finely that they look like dry bones.

In addition, there is also a Tang stone version "Temple Stele", photocopied and widely circulated.

It is a pity that this book is a combination of original stone and re-engraved.

Huang Tingjian, a great calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty, once wrote a postscript saying: "The Yushu of the Confucius Temple is carved in Zhenguan, where can I buy it with a thousand taels of gold?"

It can be seen that the original stone carved in Tang Dynasty was already hard to see in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it has been lost.

In addition, Yu Shinan also has a carved copy of "Ji Shi Tie", which was once hidden in the Shiqu Baoji of Qianlong's inner mansion.

After Qianlong's death, after several catastrophes, Qi Lao lamented that he did not know if he was still alive.

As one of the Four Great Masters in the early Tang Dynasty, Yu Shinan had a good relationship with Master Zhiyong, a descendant of Wang Xizhi.

And Zhiyong has won the family biography of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, and Yu Shinan has also inherited Wang Xizhi's calligraphy tradition under Zhiyong's careful teaching.

Its calligraphy is round and elegant, soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

Among the four great masters in the early Tang Dynasty, Yu Shinan can be said to be the best of the four.

Therefore, Qi Gong regrets that such a famous artist has almost no real works handed down from generation to generation, and the so-called works handed down from generation to generation are also fake or not.

Well, as long as you understand these, especially Mr. Qi Gong's writings on Yu Shu, then it will be easier to appraise the inscription in front of you.

You don’t need to look very carefully to see that whether it is the temple stele stickers, or the "Ji Shi Tie", "Yellow Valley Inscription", "Runan Princess Epitaph" and so on, they are all based on the predecessors' copies, re-created and copied of.

Of course, these facsimiles have certain skills, otherwise they would not be collected here by Li Tianqiang.

However, these are not ancient books, but carefully copied by modern people.

Judging from the handwriting, it should be written by everyone, but these are really not ancient or rare books.

Looking at that stele again, although this stele is a better imitation, it is also more nonsense.

Because Chen Wenzhe could tell that it was imitated from the piece in the Chang'an Forest of Steles.

Chen Wenzhe had been to the Forest of Steles in Chang'an, although he was not very interested in the Forest of Steles at that time.

However, he also looked carefully one by one.

Although I don't have a special liking for Tang steles, many important original steles there are national treasures!

Such a baby, just look at it or learn a lot.
