Chapter 591 English Channel
After seeing off Mr. Ma of the decoration company, Chen Yong returned to the basement and began to organize the first safe. This safe is 2 meters wide, 3 meters high, and 2.5 meters thick. With such a large safe, the things inside must be indispensable.
Open the safe, which is divided into three layers. There is a label on the upper floor of the cabinet frame, which reads the calligraphy and paintings of the Tang Dynasty.
The second layer of labels contains calligraphy and paintings of the Song Dynasty.
The first layer of labels contains calligraphy and paintings of the Yuan Dynasty.
Chen Yong's heart was overwhelming and he was so excited that he was extremely excited.
Instead of taking out the scroll immediately to view it, he opened the second safe.
The second safe is also divided into three layers, and the top layer is the calligraphy and paintings of the Ming Dynasty.
The second layer is calligraphy and paintings of the Qing Dynasty.
The first layer is modern calligraphy and painting.
Chen Yong's eyes were red at this time, and he wanted to laugh to the sky and shout loudly, letting the sound penetrate the sky, so that everyone knows that I have picked up another leak, and found a huge leak.
If these calligraphy and paintings are all real, then they are simply rich enough to compete with the country. Who in the world has so many calligraphy and paintings in Chen Yong? There are still 300 paintings in Tan Guohua's basement, and there are also hundreds of paintings here. What is the concept of life?
Chen Yong slowly calmed down his mood and asked Chen Yuan and Huang Dong to come over to find paper and pen. Chen Yong wanted to register and classify the value.
Chen Yong started with the Tang Dynasty. It is really rare to say that the calligraphy and paintings of the Tang Dynasty can be preserved to this day. No matter which famous person's characters and paintings are valuable, they are too valuable. Even if they are just a copybook, they may be sky-high.
The first thing Chen Yong held in his hand was a scroll. Chen Yong slowly unbuttoned the two ribbons, gently pressed the scroll with his right hand, and slowly pulled down with his left hand.
What appeared in front of him was a portrait with a hideous face. Chen Yong was shocked. The painting was too realistic, and the figures were vivid and colorful.
Isn't this Zhong Kui? This is a portrait of Zhong Kui. Looking at the seal and inscription, Chen Yong was shocked. This is the original work of the painting saint Wu Daozi! Oh my God! How did the peerless piece like Huangchuan Repair Master get it?
Wu Daozi was the most famous painter in the Tang Dynasty.
When he was young, he was lonely and poor. After learning calligraphy, he changed to painting. He only made his debut at the age of 20. He once served as the county magistrate of Xiaqiu, Yanzhou (now Yanzhou, Shandong). When he was wandering in Luoyang, Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji heard of his name and served as a doctorate in Yiwei, changing his name to Daoxuan.
He is good at painting Taoist figures, and is also good at painting birds, beasts, plants, terraces, and his handwriting is swaying and his momentum is steep.
He once made more than 300 murals, "miraculous, none of them are in the same way."
Drawing Buddha statues with round lights, columns and beams of the houses, bent bows and blades, all of which are all in one stroke.
In the early years, the strokes were thinner and densely styled. When I was middle-aged, I became vigorous and vigorous. The lines were full of movement, and the thickness changed. The lines were round like "water shield strips". There were times when there were missing and falling between dots and strokes, and there was a wonderful idea of not being circulated but being circulated.
Later generations called him "Shuti" together with Zhang Sengyou, which was different from Gu Kaizhi and Lu Tan's "Shuti" with a relatively ancient and clumsy "Shuti" that was very strong and tight.
The folds of the clothes written are floating and lifted, and the clothes are as narrow as those of Cao Zhongda’s foreign Buddha statues.
He likes to use burnt ink to draw lines, apply light colors to the ink marks to show his mind, also known as "Wu suit". The famous mural works include "Hell Disguised Picture".
He was also good at landscape painting, and was very famous for depicting the strange rocks and collapsed beaches on Shu Road. Zhang Yanyuan believed that "the changes in landscape painting began in Wu and became the second Li."
Su Shi believed that "during Wu Daozi's painting experience, the changes in ancient and modern times have been completed in the world." Wu was "drawing and sculpting" and was good at mastering the artistic rules of "keeping the spirit and focusing on one". For more than a thousand years, he has been regarded as the "painting saint"; folk painters respected him as the "ancestor".
His paintings include "The Seal Picture of the Emperor Ming Receives Seal" and "The Picture of the Ten Fingers Zhong Kui", which are included in "Famous Paintings of All Ages", "Picture of the Peacock King", "Picture of the King of the Tower", and "Picture of the Great Guardian God", and are included in "Xuanhe Painting Book".
The work heirlooms includes "The King of Heavenly Sending a Son", also known as "The Birth of Sakyamuni", which is the birth story of Sakyamuni, the son of Sudon King Sudon. It is now in the Osaka Municipal Art Museum in Japan. "The Picture of Sakyamuni" is collected in Tofukuji Temple, Kyoto, Japan. There are 50 paintings hidden in Germany.
If you look at it further, Chen Yong was a little afraid that his heart would not be able to stand it, and there must be more than this good thing.
Sure enough, the second scroll was opened, which was "Pictures of Come to the Foreign Country" by Yan Liben, a famous painter in the Tang Dynasty.
Yan Liben lived in the 7th century and died around the fourth year of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty (673). He was a famous painter in the early Tang Dynasty. He was born in a family with a strong artistic atmosphere. His father and brother were both court artists, and he was good at painting and design.
After his brother passed away, Yan Liben replaced him and continued to work in the palace.
According to the existing written records, Yan Liben's artistic activities are closely related to Li Shimin, the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty. When Yan Liben was young, he served in the mansion of Li Shimin, who was still the King of Qin, and in the ninth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty (626), he drew portraits of 18 strategists who had made great contributions to Li Shimin. In the 17th year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty (643), Yan Liben painted portraits of 24 founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty and hung them in the Lingyan Pavilion, the main palace hall, called "Portraits of the Heroes of the Lingyan Pavilion".
This group of portraits fully demonstrates Yan Liben's painting skills. Yan Liben's status in the palace became increasingly important, and he eventually served as the right prime minister with a high official position.
The left prime minister, who was at the same time, was a military general and had made many military achievements in the border court. Therefore, people praised at that time: "The left prime minister Xuanwei Desert, and the right prime minister was praised for his paintings."
The third volume is a rubbing of Li Sixun's "The Emperor of Ming Lucky Shu". Li Sixun was born in the Tang Dynasty's royal family and was the son of Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty, the son of Li Shuliang, the son of Li Xiaobin.
During the Kaiyuan period of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, he served as the General of the Left Wu Guard, served as the General of the Left Yulin, and was promoted to Duke Peng Guo. He was called "General Li" in the history of painting.
His life experience is prominent and his career is smooth, but he is famous in history as an outstanding painter.
Li Sixun is good at painting landscapes, pavilions, Buddhist and Taoist dynasties, flowers and trees, birds and beasts, and is especially famous for its golden and green landscapes.
He was considered a member of the royal family and naturally had the aesthetic taste and life ideals of the aristocratic class. His landscape paintings were mainly learned from the green landscape style of Zhan Ziqian, a painter of the Sui Dynasty, and developed them, forming a neat and magnificent artistic conception, vigorous brushwork, sharp style, uniform and elegant colors, and decorative flavor.
The works mostly depict magnificent palaces and pavilions and strange and beautiful natural mountains and rivers, and combine the themes of gods to create an ideal landscape painting realm.
It is said that in Tianbao, Emperor Ming of Tang summoned Li Sixun to paint the wall of Datong Hall, and heard the sound of water at night. Emperor Ming of Tang commented on him as a "good master of gods" and believed that his skills were "advanced by the Tao, but not buried by wealth", so he could "get the fun of being free and leisure in this deserted place."
Since Wang Wei and Zhang Qi created the ink and light color landscape painting school in the Tang Dynasty, the fine and fine green landscape and ink and freehand landscape landscape have become the two major schools of landscape painting in later generations. Dong Qichang and Mo Shilong in the Ming Dynasty advocated the "North and South School" theory of landscape painting, and Li Sixun was the ancestor of the "North and North School". His painting style had a great influence on the backyard painting school in the Song Dynasty.
The fourth volume is Li Zhaodao's "Coast Map". This "Coast Map" should be a copy, but not a new copy. Judging from the painting skills and paper, it should be an old copy.
Li Zhaodao was the son of Li Sixun and was appointed as the prince's clan.
Tang Dynasty painters inherited his father's painting style in painting and changed slightly. People at that time had comments that "the power of changing his father is wonderful and superior." His painting style was more delicate and delicate. Although Li Zhaodao was not a general, later generations named him "General Li Xiao" because of his father's title.
