Chinese civilization has a long history, in this long history, China has experienced one dynasty after another, and in the change of dynasties, it has left too much cultural heritage. Some cultural properties, such as calligraphy, calligraphy and painting, have been artificially preserved and are now treasured in major museums. Some were brought into tombs by the ancients and isolated from them. In recent years, with the country's emphasis on the protection of underground cultural relics, rare cultural relics have been rescued by archaeologists, and then through professional repairs, to restore the original appearance of cultural relics to the greatest extent, after which these cultural relics have been treasured in museums around the world, and some of them have also become "treasures of the town hall".
During the Yuan Dynasty, Huang Gongwang painted a painting of the "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map", which is currently treasured in the Zhejiang Provincial Museum. This ancient painting, like the "Map of the Upper River of the Qing Ming Dynasty", is known as "China's Top Ten Famous Paintings". This ancient painting was not brought into the coffin by Huang Gongwang, but it is not easy for this ancient painting to be handed down! Moreover, this ancient painting was also suspected by the Qianlong Emperor as a fake, until 1816, when it was not properly named, which can be said to be a bad fate!
At that time, Huang Gongwang made a living selling fortunes in the Zhejiang area. As he passed through the Fuchun Mountains in Zhejiang, he was captivated by the beauty in front of him. So he wanted to integrate the landscape in front of him into the painting. The "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" took 7 years from conception to completion, and was only painted in 1350. And according to the inscription of this painting , " Seven Years to the Right " , Huang Gongwang was already more than 70 years old at that time. But such a high age did not affect the standard of this painting. In the painting, Huang Gongwang uses ink light and elegant, the arrangement of mountains and water is dense and appropriate, and the ink color is thick and light, dry and wet, which is very varied.
This ancient painting has changed hands several times, and it is not easy to pass it down
As we mentioned above, it is not easy for this ancient painting to be handed down, because: At first, Huang Gongwang handed over this ancient painting to his disciple Zheng Fan (the words are useless), and then passed it to the hands of the calligrapher shen Zhou, but when he asked for an inscription, he was sold by the son of others, and this ancient painting during the Jiajing period went to the hands of An Shaofang... "Fuchun Mountain Jutu" has been in the hands of the people for more than 600 years, and finally reached Wu Hongyu after several changes of hands.
When Wu Hongyu was dying, he wanted to burn the "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" and the "Thousand Character Text" and bury himself. Just when the ancient painting was about to be destroyed, Wu Hongyu's nephew stepped forward, and he "rushed to the burning place and came out of the red furnace" and snatched the ancient painting out of the fire. Since then, this "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" has been divided into two, the first section is "Leftover Mountain Map" and the latter section is "Useless Division Volume".
It was suspected by the Qianlong Emperor of being a fake
In the eleventh year of Qianlong, Qianlong spent two thousand taels of silver to buy the second half of the "Fuchun Mountain Jutu" "Useless Master Scroll" for collection. However, in 1745, a year before Qianlong purchased the "Useless Master Scroll", Qianlong first obtained a copy of the "Mountain Residence Map", and he wrote: "Even Zijiu's "Mountain Residence Map", the pen and ink Canggu, is the original handwriting", believing that this is Huang Gongwang's "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map". The next year, qianlong purchased the "Useless Master Scroll", and Qianlong had two identical works. He thought about it again and again, and finally decided that "the old is true, and the new is false", that is, Qianlong judged the "Useless Master's Scroll" as a fake!
It was not until 1816, when the Jiaqing Emperor ordered the compilation of the "Shiqu Baodi", that Hu Jing and others put this ancient painting in its true name!
Later, because of the war, the two sections of this ancient painting were collected by the Taiwan and Zhejiang Provincial Museums respectively. With the mediation of relevant people from the mainland and Taiwan, on June 1, 2011, Huang Gongwang's two authentic works were put on display.
This ancient painting, which Qianlong identified as a fake, is worth up to 50 billion yuan
In fact, for ancient paintings, they should not be monetarized, after all, the historical value of ancient paintings themselves is immeasurable. However, at that time, in order to prevent the accident of these two ancient paintings, experts on both sides of the strait temporarily set a minimum insurance price for this ancient painting for the purpose of protection: 50 billion yuan to reflect the value of this ancient painting!
When Huang Gongwang was in his 70s, it took nearly 7 years to complete this "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map". It changed hands several times, almost burned, and finally was judged by the Qianlong Emperor as a fake, and finally got its name right, and it proved its extraordinary significance of existence at a minimum insured price of 50 billion yuan, and it was praised by posterity as one of the "Top Ten Famous Paintings in China".
