God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 1128 Louis XIII
Big idiot, this is Huang Gongwang's commonly used seal. It is a rectangular Zhu Wenyin with seal characters arranged up and down. This seal can often be seen on Huang Gongwang's works. People who are familiar with Huang Gongwang's calligraphy and paintings will not You will feel unfamiliar with this seal.

Of course, because of Huang Gongwang's great reputation, there are too many similar imitations. Some places even specialize in selling famous seals such as "Da Chi" seals. As long as you pay, they can engrave them for you. Most imitators use computer engraving.

The seal engraved by the computer is most similar to the deity in appearance. There is no way, just scan it with a scanner, and the computer can copy the original. As long as the accuracy of the engraving machine is high enough, it can even achieve 100% restoration.

It's just that the computer-scanned and engraved seals can only fool the layman, but not the insiders, because the computer-carved seal is completely different from the hand-carved seal, and the engraving is two completely different existences, and the engraving is a thing of the past. is inimitable.The most important thing is that the content of the printed text on the paper will also be different, because according to the fact that the stamp is re-engraved and then converted into a printed text, after such three processes, it has long been unknown what the ghost will look like.

What's more, the dull feeling of the machine-carved seal cannot be concealed no matter what.

But this does not prevent people from imitating the seals of famous masters. Not only ordinary people imitate, but even those famous masters like to imitate the seals of famous masters. Of course, masters imitate the works of their predecessors basically for fun or occasionally. profit from it.

Take Huang Gongwang's works as an example, whether it is Huang Gongwang's painter, his name, or his seal, they have all been imitated by some famous calligraphers and painters. This trend has never stopped, and there are still many famous artists in modern times. When imitating Huang Gongwang's works, for example, Mr. Qi Gong likes to do this very much, and even a few imitations were sold at very high prices, which is simply astonishing.

According to the previous auction records, most of the imitations with the "big idiot" style have sold at a good price, and some of them are even more expensive than the real ones. Of course, they are all imitations by famous artists. The work is quite valuable.

However, it is relatively rare to see such a thorough imitation like the one in Chen Xiaoyan's hand, especially a high imitation with such a high level of imitation.

To put it bluntly, except for the clear flaws in the seal and inscription, the content of this painting can really be confused with the real one. Whether it is ink, brushwork, or tone and layout, it is not different from the style of Huang Gongwang's peak period. Well, this level can completely fool about 90.00% of appraisers in the world today, and only the top few people can perceive the difference.

In this way, the facts are very clear. How many painters in history can be as good as Huang Gongwang?

Only a handful.

The real ones are few and far between.

Huang Gongwang's achievements and reputation in the painting world are unquestionable. Although he has not reached the point of being called the ancestor of Taoism, compared with the painting saint Wu Daozi, Huang Gongwang's techniques are more mature, but Wu Daozi was born thousands of years earlier. The reason why Wu Daozi is honored as a saint of painting is because in Wu Daozi’s time, Wu Daozi was a pioneering figure, just like the paper made by Cai Lun, who invented papermaking, is no better than that made by ordinary papermakers today .

Of course, it does not mean that Wu Daozi is not as good as Huang Gongwang, but Huang Gongwang is indeed more mature than Wu Daozi if judged simply from the aspects of painting techniques and ideas.

Huang Gongwang's level is so high, so how bad is the level of people who can imitate Huang Gongwang's works?
Counting with the index like this, there are only a few people after Huang Gongwang, and among those few people, Dong Qichang is the one who is the best at and likes to imitate Huang Gongwang, and the techniques and ideas are all in the same strain as Huang Gongwang.

This was Xu Jingxing's way of identifying it after confirming that the painting was a high imitation. The whole process only took two to three seconds.

After Chen Xiaoyan and Xu Jingjing heard his narration, they suddenly realized, "That is to say, brother Xu, you first confirmed that this is Dong Qichang's imitation, and then found the evidence?"

"That's right," Xu Jingxing admitted with a smile.

"But, this doesn't conform to the theory, right? Isn't it all about looking for evidence first and then confirming the conclusion? Why do you do it the other way around? Are you not afraid of guessing wrong?" Chen Xiaoyan asked a little unconvinced.

"That's the truth, but it's all for ordinary people. For an extraordinary existence like me, of course it's because of how I like it," Xu Jingxing said with a chuckle.

"It's so extraordinary, vomit, so narcissistic," Chen Xiaoyan stuck out his tongue, "Then where is the evidence you found?"

"Hey, why are you using me for nothing? Take out a bottle of the good wine you hid, and I'll tell you again."

"You're so stingy," Chen Xiaoyan wrinkled her white and small nose, and shouted towards a room, "Yaya, take out that bottle of Louis XIII."

"Okay, sister Yan," Yaya in the room replied loudly.

Xu Jingxing was stunned: "There really is Louis XIII?"

"Nonsense, these days, who doesn't have a few bottles of good wine hidden in their house? And I think Louis XIII is like that, anyway, I don't have any fruit juice," Chen Xiaoyan said angrily.

Well, comparing Louis XIII with fruit juice, only Chen Xiaoyan is the only girl.

But to be honest, Xu Jingxing never drank the real Louis XIII. You know, the real Louis XIII is brandy that has been aged for more than 50 years. How much brandy can there be left over from 50 years ago?How many can flow into the country?It doesn't take great wine tasting skills, as long as you know some common sense, you will know how rare the real Louis XIII is.

But for many people, drinking is such a rarity. If the real Louis XIII was everywhere, it would definitely not be as popular as it is now.

It's a pity that Louis XIII is so rare, so rare that even Xu Jingxing is looking forward to it.

Soon, Yaya came out holding a crystal bottle of cognac carefully, followed by Tiantian holding wine glasses, screwdrivers, wine dispensers and other utensils. The two girls put down the things in their hands and were about to leave , but was stopped by Chen Xiaoyan: "You two should try it together, you can't take advantage of someone alone."

Yaya and Tiantian were overjoyed when they heard the words, and quickly sat down, but they didn't know what to think, and sat on both sides of Xu Jingxing, one on the left and one on the right. , we dare not go near that wine cabinet, for fear of being discovered by tobacco and alcohol, you know, our Sister Yan thinks her wine cabinet is more important than a safe for antiques."
