Chapter 103 Huang Binhong

Chapter 103 Huang Binhong

Seeing the somewhat confused expressions on the faces of the three of them, Mr. Li couldn't help but shook his head, and didn't try to ask any more questions. He also didn't tell the three of them anything about the painter's skills or painting methods, because this was completely talking to others.

"Xiaodong, although your painting is indeed a fake, the person who painted this fake is not simple, right?"

"Mr. Li, have you seen anything?" Although he knows nothing about the techniques of Chinese painting and has not done much research before, he is familiar with some great painters in Chinese history and modern times. He also knows the reality of this painting, but he knows

I know it, but I can't say it now.

"If nothing else happens, the author of this painting "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains" should be Huang Binhong, a master of traditional Chinese painting!"

"Huang Binhong!?" Li Yuncong and Zhao Defa couldn't help but exclaimed.

Although they don't know much about traditional Chinese paintings, those who like to collect them know about this landscape painting master who is as famous as Qi Baishi, the master of modern Chinese art, and is known as the "Northern Qi and Southern Huang".

This pioneering master in the history of modern Chinese art insisted on using traditional brush and ink to create works to show that this ancient material still has unlimited innovation. He is known as "the number one ink master through the ages" and played an important role in landscape painting in the 20th century.

His achievements are something no one can deny.

Moreover, Huang Binhong has made outstanding contributions in epigraphy, art history, poetics, philology, ancient book compilation, publishing and other fields. Huang Binhong traveled throughout the mountains and rivers throughout his life, focusing on sketching. In his later years, he was especially good at ink painting. He liked to accumulate ink and splash ink,

Broken ink and sustained ink are used interchangeably, and heavy colors are often applied in thick ink and burnt ink, making the mountains and rivers deep and majestic.

In the history of art, Huang Binhong's unique academic status is not only due to his original ideas in composition, but also because of his lifelong academic cultivation, which gives his paintings a rich and rich flavor that is difficult to copy. But obviously this value is not available yet.

If it is fully reflected, there should be greater room for development.

Huang Binhong is the last accomplished landscape painter in modern times. No subsequent landscape painting has reached his height, and it is also the last peak of Chinese landscape painting. His paintings contain many Chinese philosophical thoughts. If ranked among the top ten modern painters, then Huang Binhong

It can definitely be ranked in the top three. Many times when you comment on the value of an artist, you should not just look at his market. The market is just a representation. Li Keran also learned to use ink under his tutelage.

Huang Binhong lived to be 92 years old. He was a late blooming artist. His paintings during his lifetime were not recognized and loved by people at the time. Even Ma Heng, the former director of the Palace Museum, once said: Huang Binhong was a "downbeat painter."

Of course, this is not because Huang Binhong is not good at painting, but because he insists on his own style of painting, and does not choose to cater to the taste of the market like the Shanghai-style painters at that time. This aesthetic orientation is that he likes color, not ink, and likes detail.

, does not like extensive; likes liveliness, does not like coldness. Huang Binhong's landscape paintings are completely inconsistent with these characteristics. If this is used as a "good" standard, then the market response to his landscape paintings during the "Bai Binhong Period" was mediocre.

It is also within reason.

Moreover, the character of this master of traditional Chinese painting is also very commendable. After the Japanese occupied Peiping, Huang Binhong, who was trapped here, closed the door to thank guests and devoted himself to painting.

I can't let go of calligraphy and painting." There are only a few literary and artistic people who are close to me. Such a lonely artistic life is the same as Mei Lanfang's beard and stop acting, which is what a literary and artistic person can do to deal with current affairs and invaders.

The best fight.

For this master, everyone who knows him will respect him from the bottom of his heart, and Liu Dong and others are no exception.

"Mr. Li, is this really the authentic work of Master Huang Binhong?" Zhao Defa asked with some excitement.

"Well, judging from the brushwork and ink used in this painting, it should be Huang Binhong's painting. However, I am not proficient in the appraisal of calligraphy and painting, so further research is needed to confirm!" There was a trace of hesitation in Mr. Li's words.

But there is no seal of Huang Binhong. Although the painting skills and the use of ink are very similar to Huang Binhong's paintings that he has admired many times, Mr. Li, who is rigorous by nature, does not dare to be too sure without 100% evidence.

However, compared to Mr. Li who was more rigorous, Zhao Defa and Li Yuncong, after hearing his appraisal conclusion, finally determined that this imitation of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" was undoubtedly Huang Binhong's work.

After Liu Dong listened to the old man's words, he couldn't help but secretly admire him, because his identification results in the mustard space were the same as those of Mr. Li. The author of this imitation of "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" was the famous landscape painting master Huang Binhong.

"So Mr. Li, is this painting 'White Binhong' or 'Black Binhong'?" Li Yuncong asked. Anyone who knows Huang Binhong knows that in his early years, his painting style was influenced by the "Xin'an School", using dry brushwork.

Light ink, characterized by sparseness and lightness, is called "White Binhong"; after the age of eighty, it is characterized by dense and thick black ink, with translucent black ink, called "Black Binhong".

As a late-blooming master of traditional Chinese painting, Huang Binhong's painting style gradually became more realistic after the age of 50. Only after the age of 80 did he truly form the familiar "black, dense, thick and heavy" painting style. Huang Binhong's landscape paintings in his later years are so famous.

The distinctive features of painting mountains and rivers are deep, majestic and shocking, which also elevates Chinese landscape painting to a supreme state. Therefore, the value of Huang Binhong's paintings after the age of 80 is the highest.

"Hei Binhong!" Mr. Li stared at the scroll on the table and said with a hint of excitement in his voice.

"Damn it, Brother Liu, you made it this time! The price of this painting is conservatively estimated to be over 20 million!" Li Yuncong said with envy on his face.

After listening to his words, Mr. Li nodded and said: "Well! Yun Cong is right, but the price of 20 million is still a bit low for this painting. Although Huang Binhong's landscape paintings are now on the market, because people are interested in it.

Because he is still relatively unknown, the price of his paintings and calligraphy is not as good as that of Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Fu Baoshi, Li Keran and Wu Changshuo, who are close to his contemporaries. However, his later fine paintings now cost 500,000 yuan per square meter.

So, if this painting is indeed Huang Binhong's authentic work, then its price is about 30 million, and now the entire art market, especially the prices of calligraphy, painting and porcelain are rising the fastest, so this painting

The price will continue to appreciate in the future! In the next three to five years, it’s not surprising that its value will exceed 50 million!”

After listening to Mr. Li's analysis, Zhao Defa and Li Yuncong looked at Liu Dong with even more envy!

Suddenly, Mr. Li, who had been looking at the painting on the table, shook his head, with emotion on his face, "What a pity, this painting is just a copy of Huang Binhong, otherwise this masterpiece, which is nearly twelve meters long, would be

If you buy it, the value will double or even more!”

To evaluate the quality of a painting, in addition to excellent painting skills, the most important thing is the design and composition of the painting, because it embodies the author's thinking and speculation about life. The expression and communication of this kind of humanistic thought is a

The most precious thing in a painting. But obviously, although "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is one of China's top ten famous paintings handed down from generation to generation, this one is just an imitation of Huang Binhong. It has Huang Binhong's pen and ink skills, but it does not have Huang Binhong's spirit, connotation and value.

Big discount.

However, although Liu Dong felt it was a pity in his heart, he let it go after thinking about it. After all, he won this painting from Ichiro Fujita without spending a penny. Now he has made a profit no matter what.

"Brother Liu, you are so lucky in gambling. You just won 30 million from others at the gambling table last night, and this time you won this Huang Binhong imitation worth 30 million from the Japanese. You are so lucky, ugh

!It’s so enviable!” Zhao Defa couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at Liu Dong’s young face.

Obviously, those who felt the same as him were Li Yuncong, who had witnessed Liu Dong killing everyone at the gambling table yesterday, "Yes, yes! You guy's luck has also been brought! In less than two days, one point

I made 60 million yuan without spending any money, and you can't rob a bank that fast!"

Compared to them, Mr. Li was more surprised. He frowned and asked: "Xiaodong, did you go to the casino yesterday?" In the minds of older people like Mr. Li who have lived by the rules for half his life, casinos are not an occasional thing.

It is a place to relax, but a place where people can become corrupted and people can be destroyed at any time.

Therefore, although Mr. Li was surprised to hear that Liu Dong made 30 million in one go at the gambling table, he did not feel much envy or jealousy. Because suddenly gaining a large amount of wealth, it is easy for people to

Especially for young people to get lost in this kind of wealth game. If Liu Dong becomes obsessed with gambling, then this very talented young man may be ruined. Therefore, Liu Dong is now basically regarded as his mantle.

It's impossible for Mr. Li, the successor, not to be worried.
