Chapter 1550: The accumulation of time cannot deceive people
After Zhu Yuanzhang in the Ming Dynasty, everyone wanted an Emperor Wen.
That's why Emperor Jianwen succeeded to the throne. In this way, he left enough room for Zhu Di and allowed him to seize the opportunity.
Of course, Emperor Yongle was still a relatively powerful emperor.
Especially in the art industry, it is basically a household name, and it really doesn’t need any introduction now.
Generally speaking, the overall domestic economy of the Yongle Dynasty was good.
First of all, this will have a huge positive impact on the art and culture industry.
However, Yongle's position was incorrect. It was said that he was "on the side of the Qing Emperor", but in fact he was trying to grab the only position in the pyramid.
Everyone knows this, so his foundation is not solid.
This makes it even more necessary to create a phenomenon where the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the world is at peace.
This can, in turn, prove that he is the right choice in history.
To create a phenomenon where the country is peaceful and the people are safe and peaceful, we must vigorously develop the cultural industry.
That's why the "Yongle Dadian" was created. You must know that in ancient times, the time and financial resources consumed in repairing books were immeasurable. Since ancient times, there has been an argument that books should not be repaired except in prosperous times;
Therefore, Zheng He made five voyages to the West, and the other two were in the Xuande Dynasty.
There is something worth saying about Zheng He’s five voyages to the West.
Based on the potential intention of Emperor Yongle, the first was of course to promote the country's prestige.
This proves that he was the right choice of history.
The second, of course, is to find the missing Emperor Jianwen.
Zheng He lived up to his high expectations and sent a bunch of money to let his allies feel the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty;
Along the way, some internal disputes in small countries were resolved based on the moral high ground.
This allows friendly countries to feel the civilization and power of the Ming Dynasty even more.
You must know that Zheng He's fleet at that time, it is no exaggeration to say, its size should be equivalent to four or five aircraft carrier groups today;
Of course, it is also very important to capture some emperors from other regions, either voluntarily or by force, to pay homage to Emperor Yongle.
This is the most important point of coming to the DPRK from all directions. At that time, some emperors of small countries died in China, and their cemeteries are still there.
In the eyes of our countrymen, you see, we are all from the same cloth and we are of the same blood, and your emperor would be happy to die in our country.
What about foreigners? Their ancestors were captured and died in China. How do they feel?
As for voluntariness, if you think about it, you will know why an emperor would voluntarily travel all the way to China?
As for some emperors who came and lamented the civilization and prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, they never returned to their hometown and died in the Ming Dynasty. This is good to hear;
In fact, for any country, foreign exchanges are very important.
The Yongle Dynasty took advantage of Zheng He's several voyages to the West. Although it wasted countless financial taels, it also broadened its horizons and maintained innovation and progress.
In terms of the production of official kiln porcelain, the Yongle Dynasty can be said to be a link between the past and the next, occupying a very important position in the history of porcelain.
As for Emperor Jianwen, he was the first porcelain blank period in the Ming Dynasty.
Emperor Jianwen had only been emperor for a few years, and there were not many porcelains or even porcelain fragments to clearly prove the porcelain of Emperor Jianwen's period.
Of course, there must have been porcelain in this period.
Some people also say that the official kiln in Jingzhen was built during the period of Emperor Jianwen.
Yes or no, Chen Wenzhe has already said this before when he researched the official kiln porcelain of the Hongwu period.
Due to the short reign of Emperor Jianwen, and the fact that the porcelain produced during this period has not been proven to date, there is no evidence yet.
Therefore, it should belong to the blank period of porcelain.
The blank period does not mean that porcelain was not produced during this period, but it is just not recorded in history.
The porcelain produced by kilns in Jingzhen and other places during this period should be attributed to the Hongwu or Yongle period.
The most convincing thing is that the formulation in the early Ming Dynasty is relatively stable.
If we have to tell the exact year, it seems a bit superfluous.
The wheel of history rolls forward, and the footprints left behind are only a gradual process of understanding for later generations.
Before the Republic of China, the antique world lacked knowledge of the porcelain of the Hongwu period, until later archeology discovered the physical data of Hongwu porcelain.
Both Android and Apple are available.]
This is why Hongwu porcelain is said to be famous.
Even if private collectors have porcelain from the Jianwen period, they can only feel aggrieved temporarily.
Only when experts discover the actual porcelain with the Jianwen style can it be confirmed.
Of course, there are many things that can be confirmed now. For example, there must be porcelain from Emperor Jianwen of the Ming Dynasty!
However, the amount of existence must be very few!
Most of the Ming Dynasty Jianwen Emperor porcelain seen in the world must be JDZ imitations.
Even if a genuine product appears, if it is not signed and dated, it will still be listed as being from the Hongwu era!
Because there is no available information, ceramic tiles, etc. for comparison.
Even if there are many newly imitated Ming Dynasty Jianwen Emperor porcelains, handed down from generation to generation, and unearthed and deposited over the years, they cannot deceive anyone!
However, the National Palace Museum does not have porcelain from the official kiln of Emperor Jianwen.
From this point of view, if you want to prove it to Emperor Jianwen, it will not be possible in a short time.
Now, Chen Wenzhe can only study Jianwen porcelain through some information on the Internet.
Now on the market, or in the hands of collectors, there are not only Jianwen porcelains, but also porcelains made with the four characters of the Jianwen year.
According to some porcelain, Jianwen porcelain continued the characteristics of the Hongwu period, using blue and white underglaze red as the theme, but added its own ideas.
For example, Chen Wenzhe saw a picture of a blue and white glazed red chicken heart bowl.
The outer wall of this small bowl is covered with sapphire blue glaze, also known as sapphire blue glaze.
I heard from collectors that this small bowl feels warm and moist when held for a long time, and it feels like "sweating" when playing with it.
As for whether he feels this way, Chen Wenzhe certainly cannot know.
But looking at the picture, he could see that the blue and white underglaze and red on the inner edge of the small bowl were intertwined, creating a visual impression of mountains.
The center of the bowl has a dragon pattern in the shape of a soaring dragon, surrounded by auspicious clouds.
This means taking off over Kyushu and soaring in the sky.
It is also consistent with the character of Emperor Jianwen who used thunderous means to destroy Pan after he came to power and wanted the world to be in the hands of Emperor Jianwen.
The tire walls are thick and heavy, continuing the majestic momentum of the Hongwu period.
There is a vertical inscription at the bottom: "Daming Jianwen Year System" six-character regular script inscription.
Therefore, the collector of this small bowl undoubtedly believes that it is a work from the Jianwen period!
Regardless of whether it is authentic or not, this small bowl is still very well made.
This blue and white underglaze red chicken heart bowl uses three color combinations. It is considered top-notch in terms of the control of firing temperature and other craftsmanship.
This is also consistent with the characteristics of Jianwen Official Kiln. So what are the characteristics of Jianwen Official Kiln?
Don't think that because Emperor Jianwen's reign was short, he didn't make any achievements in porcelain.
This is wrong because he has inherited his grandfather's legacy that has flourished for decades.
