As the "big red man" Fan Zeng in the art of calligraphy and painting, although some people say that he has "assembly line" operations, it still does not hinder the price of his calligraphy and painting, often 20-300,000 / flat foot, more expensive than the famous ancient paintings, whether it is calligraphy or Chinese painting, Runge is unmatched!
Fan Zeng
Mr. Qi Gong, known as an old man with both virtue and art, is a famous contemporary calligrapher, painter, educator, classical philologist and appraiser, and he is second to none in the identification of cultural relics!
Qi Gong old man
Mr. Qi Gong once praised a work that was bought back to China at a high price from the Japanese:
It was really full of eyes, and I was happy to see its photos in the past, and I was happy to see it. I'm in my 90s, and I saw the original, and it was a blessing in disguise! If you can watch a few more days, you can watch more days.
What can make the old man so ecstatic is Mi Fu's heirloom work "Kenshan Ming", which is also a rare big-character work of Mi Fu!
Kensan Ming
According to the appraisal of the State Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee, the "Yanshan Ming" returned from Japan is indeed a genuine manuscript and a national treasure, and on December 7, 2002, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage commissioned Mr. Ma Weidu of the Guanfu Museum to auction it for 29.99 million yuan, and is now in the collection of the Palace Museum in Beijing.
The original work of "Yanshan Ming" has a total of 39 words, and the price of a single word is almost 760,000 yuan, which shows the high artistic value!
Mr. Qi Gong wrote a poem praising: "Envy Xiangyang a pen, Linglong eight sides to write autumn depth." ”
Xiangyang refers to Mi Fu!
The authenticity of the "Kenzan Ming"
Mi Fu, love the stone as fate, in his later years to get the Lingbi stone, such as the treasure, because the shape of the stone is mountain-shaped, can be used as an ink pool to study ink, Mi Fu loves it, eating, sleeping a moment can not be separated, but also specially wrote 39 lines of big characters:
"Yanshan Ming five-color water floating Kunlun Pond in the top of the black cloud hanging dragon monster lightning marks under the shock thunder Ze Hou Kun pole change Gate Bao Jinshan QianXuanshu."
This is the origin of Kensan Ming!
Rice dumplings
Originally it was a grand event in the cultural circles, and everyone raised a glass to celebrate, but Master Fan Zeng published an article in the third issue of the "Chinese Painting and Calligraphy" magazine "Dust Washes Away the Discernment of Yan Yan - Mi Fu's "Yanshan Ming" Identification of Forgery", which directly pointed out: This is a forgery, a fake!
The reason given by Fan Zeng is that the inscription lacks poetry, the first half and the second half of the writing are not uniform, the ink color is different, and even the pen is changed!
And make an oil poem to mock Qi Gong and related cultural relics experts:
Discerning the "Kenzan Ming"
Kensan lost the drama and was pitiful, and rice once slept with stones.
Tears without chips under the cold moon, waving a little before trying to draw a picture.
The inscription is probably an idle pen, and the seal was originally a smoke.
Looking at the troublesome Jun chasing the ancients, the dust washed away the discernment of The Concubine.
Experts and scholars from all walks of life have appeared one after another, and there are also those who support Fan Zeng!
Among them, the famous calligrapher and painter Shi Kai was the most firm supporter of Mr. Qi Gong, and in his article "Reading the Judgment of the Yanshan Ming", he not only thought that it was a genuine work, but also praised:
The words are wonderful, the pen is magical, and there are countless scholars who have learned rice in the past thousand years, but they have not heard of those who can mess up the truth, mainly because it is not easy to mess up!
Moreover, it is directly pointed out that Fan Zeng judged the authenticity criterion as "conjecture" (subjective conjecture):
There are generally two ways to identify Chinese paintings and calligraphy, one is examination, and the other is appreciation. Examiners, consider the time of creation, the background of creation, personnel contacts, as well as text content and creative materials, decoration, circulation certificates, etc. Appreciation, on the other hand, is simply a comparative analysis of the artistic content of the work, and then a reasonable conclusion is made.
