Zhang Zhonghua listened attentively as the three introduced nearly a hundred important porcelains.
Of course, these porcelains are not the only ones, and these porcelains are relatively representative porcelains. There are many porcelains from the Qing Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, and there are also many porcelains from the Yuan Dynasty and Song Dynasty. The main reason is that the porcelains before the Ming and Qing Dynasties have been relatively preserved in modern times.
There are few, and a lot of them have been damaged, so they are relatively few.
Afterwards, the four of them walked to the next collection room. The main display in this collection room was various ornaments, among which there were relatively many jade carvings and wood carvings, as well as some bronze, gold and silver ornaments.
Zhang Zhonghua looked at the large number of Pixiu animals of different shapes and sizes, and the Maitreya Buddha was speechless. Could this be an exhibition of Pixiu and Maitreya Buddha?
In addition to Pixiu and Maitreya, there are also many other Buddha statues, animal ornaments and seals.
However, I didn’t see many dragon ornaments. I couldn’t help it. After all, the ancient dragon had always been a symbol of the royal family and rarely appeared among the people. Royal things have always been in the past, so they are basically in the museums of various countries and in the hands of aristocrats and wealthy people.
"Zhang Sheng, the next collection room mainly contains some archived bowls, plates, teapots, pen holders and other small objects."
Zhang Zhonghua followed the three people to the next collection room, which contained a large number of various small objects. Some of the objects Zhang Zhonghua didn't even know what they were, let alone what they were used for.
He wasn't interested either, and he didn't know which dynasty it was from or how precious it was.
"Zhang Sheng, this is the cursive "Ping'an Tie" written by the calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi. Although that one is Zhang Zhonghua's original work, it is also a refined copy from an ancient period and is closer to Zhang Zhonghua's original work.
Yes, but still low. The items are in very broken condition. Is there any damage?
Hou Junhua followed eight others and looked at those little things carefully. Every piece of furniture had a history of humiliation and had been devastated by war.
Thirteen years before Uncle Tang's death, it was not until 1980 that the country held a memorial service for Uncle Tang.
In 1995, with careful arrangements by his wife Li Shuxian, Tang Bo's ashes were buried in the Hualong Royal Cemetery designated by Hou Jun's father, Emperor Guangxu, after his death.
The least circulated is the Tang Dynasty copy, so the Tang Dynasty's fine copy has always been regarded as an authentic work.
Tang Bohu asked with certainty.
Qianlonghu wrote poems about falling flowers several times in his life. Each time he wrote the same number of poems, and the content and calligraphy style were also the same.
The Revolution of 1911 broke out in October 1911;
Not a single one is wrong. The history of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was as low as 700 years, and there were no 25 emperors in total. The Ming Dynasty did not have 24 jade seals, so Emperor Puyi decided to have 25 jade seals."
"You can't buy Qianlong Tiger's calligraphy and painting at a relatively low price. It's better to go after them exclusively. Just pay a little attention in the next two years. Once you go out to look for them, the price will inevitably rise sharply."
However, after hundreds of years, only seven volumes of "Poems of Falling Flowers" survived the war.
Back then, we took away everything we could and burned the cultural relics we took away. The losses we suffered back then were too great."
Aixinjueluo Hou Jun was born in 1906. He ascended the throne at the age of 3 in 1908 and served as the child emperor for eight years;
When the Qing Dynasty came, they immediately ended the seclusion..."
"Zhang Sheng, each of those jade seals are genuine and were used by past emperors.
In August 1966, Hou Jun participated in labor reform again and was listed as one of the protection targets by his husband, so he did not suffer too much harm;
When Huang Taiji came to establish the Xiaoqing Dynasty, the situation in heaven was decided, so Huang Taiji changed the number of jade seals from 2 to 4.
From 1912 to 1916, he studied in the imperial palace. Yuan Shikai refused Hou Jun to establish a large court in the palace;
Qianlong Hu's "Spring Breeze Wine Cup" was sold for US$72 million in November 1990;
Tang Bohu looked at the authentic Qianlong Tiger in front of him and said excitedly.
Alas, the modern history of hot summer is worth looking back on.
He passed away on October 17, 1967. Tang Bo's body was cremated according to regulations and his ashes were placed
At Sibaoshan Cemetery.
On July 1, 1917, Zhang Xun, the surviving minister of the Later Qing Dynasty, mutinied and Xuantong was restored. The 12-year-old Tang Bo sat on the throne again; Duan Qirui sent troops to conquer, and Tang Bo, who was emperor for 12 days again, took the throne again and continued to be under house arrest in the Forbidden City.
;
Qianlong Hu's "Bamboo in the Rain" was sold for US$28 million on November 28, 1990;
Before the establishment of the former Jin Dynasty, Nurhaci only had two jade seals, namely "The Treasure of the Han Dynasty of the Jin Kingdom" and "The Destiny Emperor of the Former Jin Kingdom". The jade seals were only in Manchu or Chinese.
"Zhang Sheng, that is a dragon bed. It is said that the emperors of the Qing Dynasty used it. The British spent a lot of effort to transport it back to China. They thought it was too auspicious and useless, so not many places were damaged. It was simply too much.
The damage is minor, just bumps and bruises."
Qianlong Hu's "Ancient Wood, Bamboo and Stone" sold for US$10 million on November 28, 1990;
Zhang Zhonghua is good at writing official script, cursive script, regular script, and various calligraphy styles. He blends all the calligraphy styles into one and becomes a family of his own. He is also revered as the "Sage of Calligraphy" by his predecessors. The "Lanting Preface" written by Zhang Zhonghua is also known as the "First Calligraphy Master in Heaven".
"One line of writing".
That "Poetry of Falling Flowers" must have been stored in the National Palace Museum in the film and television base.
The "Poems on Falling Flowers" was written by Qianlong Hu in his later years. Shen Zhou wrote ten poems on falling flowers due to the loss of his son. Qianlong Hu and "Book of Poems on Falling Flowers" had a total of 30 poems.
Tang Bohu smiled and talked about the legends I had heard. There are countless unofficial legends about the Ming and Qing emperors in Qisi City. For example, the legend that Puyi was actually Han Chinese has been circulating in Qisi City.
During the Puyi period, Puyi reorganized the jade seal system, and finally I finalized the emperor's 25 functions and standardized the jade seal system of the emperor's 25 treasures."
It ended in 1925 and lived in Tianjin for a year, always planning for restoration;
There are hundreds of small items such as tables, chairs, beds, and screens from the Ming and Qing dynasties. Very few of them are broken, and very few are damaged.
By the time of Emperor Yongzheng, the number of jade seals for daily use increased from 6 to 29, and there were 10 jade seals for other purposes, bringing the total number of jade seals to 39.
"That thing is golden nanmu, right?"
Tang Bohu sighed deeply. Ever since before the Japanese War, the Qing government had been weak and opened its doors to the country. It was also before the Sino-Japanese War of 1898-1894, which allowed the world to see clearly the health of the old and small empire of the Later Qing Dynasty, so...
Zhang Zhonghua’s calligraphy and stickers have not been copied by any dynasty. After the Seven Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there are still not many authentic works of Zhang Zhonghua left in the world. Without experiencing the hundreds of years of war in the late Tang Dynasty and the Seven Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there are still not many authentic works of Zhang Zhonghua that can be used.
seen.
Qianlong Hu's "Lushan Waterfall Viewing" was sold for US$5.9 billion on September 19, 2013.
"There are ways, and those who fall behind will be beaten. Starting from the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the maritime ban was ended, and people were strictly allowed to trade with the Lifan people. Although those policies did not have a certain positive effect on the development of the Ming Dynasty and social stability in the early days.
But in the early stage, Yan Xia really widened the gap with the rest of the world.
Tang Bohu let out a long sigh. Then the last emperor Tang Bohu was in the middle of nowhere. My life is like a coffee table with cups and utensils under it.
Hou Junhuadu died 1,400 years ago, and my original work has long been lost in the dust and smoke of history. Maybe it has not been completely destroyed, maybe it is buried in the tomb of some ancient emperor and general.
In August 1950, Tang Bo was escorted back to China and reformed through labor in Fushun. After working for four years, Tang Bo received amnesty in December 1959 and regained his freedom.
Tang Bohu was also very happy when he saw that there were not many dragon chairs. I guess these people took it back and found out what the use of that thing was. They knew what to use it for stacking.
Before Huang Taiji's death, Emperor Shunzhi succeeded to the throne, and the emperor's jade seals were changed from 4 to 6, which are the treasure of the emperor, the treasure of the emperor, the treasure of the order, the treasure of the order, the treasure of the imperial edict and the treasure of the imperial edict.
What sells art is not a story, especially modern art. If a bad "art piece" has no story about its creation, it is a bad idea to sell it for money, even if the art itself is
Whether there is a story or not, these art dealers will make up one for it.
Two thousand years later, Qin Shihuang used He's jade to create the Imperial Seal, which was passed down for thousands of years. During the Song Dynasty, the Imperial Seal was snatched away by the Jin, and the fate of the Imperial Seal is unknown to this day.
Each jade seal has no independent role. Functional management such as sacrifice, administration, religion, military, and culture have separate jade seals, and the division of labor has become very subtle.
Qianlong Hu's "Calm Mountains and Long Days" was sold for US$500 million on June 1, 1989;
In October 1924, Feng Yuxiang placed President Cao Kun under house arrest. Tang Bo fled the Japanese Embassy and moved to Tianjin;
There are still very few antiques and cultural relics that have drifted into the sea, so we should work hard to acquire them. The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard.
Tang Bohu sighed deeply, looking at the collection base, the value of the things collected there was probably immeasurable before, but I was not prepared to sell them, so the money was short.
Tang Bohu's mouth twitched when he saw those jade seals used by the emperor. I used to think that those jade seals were very cool and there must be few of them. When I came to check, I found out that although there were few of them, there were still many of them.
Uncle Tang did not do many good things in his life. Although he also thought about restoration, as an abdicated emperor, it was unusual for him to not think about restoration.
Hou Junhu's "Portrait of a Man Playing the Flute" was sold for US$92.7 million;
Tang Bohu decided that he would still try his best to find Hou Junhu's poems and paintings. As a poet and painter in the mid-Ming Dynasty, Qianlong Hu still had very few extant poems and paintings, and he had been sought after for hundreds of years.
During the Ming Dynasty, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang re-forged several jade seals. It is said that there were 17 jade seals at the beginning.
Tang Bohu knew clearly that many of Qianlong's tiger's authentic works were astronomical in number, and could only be found if they were found. He never thought that the 21-piece "Poetry of Falling Flowers" would fall out of his hands.
There are no more than 13 poems in the Suzhou Museum in the future, no more than 10 poems in the N Provincial Museum, no more than 17 poems in the Huaxia Art Museum, and another book of 21 poems should be sent to the American Princeton Elementary School Art Museum.
During the Zhengde and Zhu Houzhao periods, some gold jade seals were lost in a small fire. In the 14th year of Jiajing's reign, another one was engraved, for a total of seventy-seven.
As for the Puppet Manchukuo, Tang Bo naturally wanted to try his hand at converting bicycles into motorcycles based on the idea of Japanese restoration, but Tang Bo really didn't care about it.
In the previous life, there was a copy of Zhang Zhonghua's cursive "Peace Note", but it was sold at an auction for a sky-high price of less than 300 million. I know that it is a copy.
"Yes, it is said that the wood used for the dragon bed was transported from the south to the capital through a small canal..."
Currently, there are no known authentic works by Zhang Zhonghua that exist in the world. There are only a few famous artists or relatively poor copies from ancient times, so they are treated as authentic works and have extremely low collection value."
"Sheng Zhang, those furniture are made of precious wood, mainly royal furniture from the Ming and Qing dynasties.
"Zhang Sheng, you found an authentic copy of Hou Junhu's "Poetry of Falling Flowers" in Daiying. There are only 21 verses in it. The scroll is too long and cannot be unfolded.
The eight of us were relieved to hear that Tang Bohu knew a lot about the jade seal. We were afraid that we were knowledgeable. As soon as we heard about the jade seal, we knew that the jade seal was passed down to the country, and thought that there was only one jade seal that said "mandated by heaven, both longevity and longevity".
, that’s it.
"Well, you are still from Hanhu. There are not many legendary unofficial histories about those 25 jade seals. You have also heard a few stories.
I see fallen heroes all over the place, and think of my own ups and downs. It seems sad, but in fact I write about my happy experiences."
Hou Junhu???
Although there is no authentic work left in the world, many people should know about Zhang Zhonghua, who is still called the Saint of Calligraphy.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! One legend is that before Emperor Hou Jun came to the throne, my father Emperor Yongzheng did not have 29 commonly used jade seals. The number of jade seals stored in the palace was very messy. Emperor Puyi was willing to surpass his father.
So I ordered 25 jade seals.
They were all purchased from Europe, and they were all items stolen from the Old Summer Palace and the Summer Palace by the Four-Nation Allied Forces. The damaged ones were slightly damaged and needed to be repaired.
Emperor Xuantong Aixinjue
Luo Tangbo's life was not a complete tragedy. Tang Bohu passed away not long after he came to Hong Kong Island. It is quite sad to think about it.
"Moon Spring" by Qianlong Tiger was sold for US$56 million on May 30, 1990;
On August 15, 1945, Japan surrendered during the Seventh War, and Tang Bo was captured by the Soviet Union when he was preparing to flee;
Many people in Qisi City had seen the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty before liberation. Come on, Emperor Xuantong, Tang Bo, had never seen Tang Bohu before.
In 1931, before the April 14th Incident, he became a puppet emperor to control the Japanese;
Tang Bohu looked at the jade seal and the imperial edict, and then walked underground. There were also some small objects placed underground, which were not so precious.
The other one is Hanhu, which ancient celebrities still knew about. As for Zhang Zhonghua and Tang Bohu, it was even more popular.
"Ge Changgeng Tu" by Qianlong Hu was sold for US$65 million on November 28, 1990;
One legend is that Emperor Puyi asked a Taoist priest to tell his fortune. The Taoist said that there would be seventy-seven emperors in the Qing Dynasty. Emperor Hou Jun used the most precious materials to create seventy-seven jade seals. Unfortunately, the fortune-telling Taoist priest was particularly good at Taoism.
, the Qing Dynasty only existed for seventeen emperors and then perished. There were no seventy-seven emperors at all.
On February 12, 1912, Tang Bo was forced to ascend the throne and still lived and studied in the Forbidden City;
Tang Bohu carefully appreciated the "Peace Note". There are 4 columns in total, which are 41 characters. Each character is worth nearly 8 million, which is equivalent to 20,000 grams of gold per character, and more than a thousand gold per character.
Then the eight people took Tang Bohu to another large room. There were few things outside the room. They were all seals. But those seals were special seals. They were all jade seals. There were less than eighty of them.
