These people are all collectors. Although Wu Yun was only a magistrate of Suzhou, he was devoted to archeology, was fond of epigraphy, calligraphy and painting, and his family collection was very rich.
He compiled the "Inventory of Classical Books, Inscriptions, Calligraphy and Paintings Collected by Liangleixuan", "Inventory of Calligraphy and Paintings Collection of Erbai Lantingzhai", "Ancient Bronze Seals", etc., and compiled "Jiaoshan Chronicle", which are all very important to future generations' collections. Someone helps.
???????????? Ouch, these two brothers have collected them! Meng Zhe saw that the scroll had the collection seal of Kong Guangtao, who was known as one of the four major bibliophiles in Guangdong Province. The "Huaimin Treasures" Zhu Wen seal mentioned later was the collection seal of his brother Kong Guangyong.
I really didn¡¯t expect that there were imprints of Pan Xilan, Jiang Gusun and others on this volume. This is enough to show the importance collectors attach to Wang Chong's calligraphy.
After seeing two more seals from collectors, Meng Zhe was greatly amazed in his heart! Even more determined to win.
The content of Wang Chong's volume is "Nanhua Zhenjing", also known as "Zhuangzi", which is one of the Taoist classics.
According to "New Tang Book? Yi Wen Zhi": "In the first year of Tianbao, the imperial edict "Zhuangzi" was titled "Nanhua Zhenjing".
"Hanshu Yiwenzhi" records fifty-two chapters of "Zhuangzi", but only thirty-three chapters have been preserved. Seven of them are generally attributed to Zhuangzi. The outer chapters and miscellaneous chapters may be mixed with the works of other disciples and later Taoists.
The contents of his articles are wild and unrestrained, and most of them are in the form of fables. They are extremely rich in imagination and have high research value in philosophy and literature.
Meng Zhe carefully read the seven chapters in this volume: Xiaoyaoyou, Qiwulun, Yangshengzhu, Renjianshi, Dechongfu, Great Master, Yingdiwang, etc.
The characters are sparse and scattered, and the style is elegant and quiet. It is a masterpiece that fully embodies the author's calligraphy charm.
This volume was written in the 10th year of Zhengde's reign (1515). It is the early masterpiece of the 22-year-old Wang Chong in small regular script.
The development of calligraphy in the Ming Dynasty can be roughly divided into three periods. The early period is from Hongwu to Hongzhi, the middle period is from Hongzhi to Wanli, and the later period is from Wanli to Chongzhen.
The early calligraphy style followed the calligraphy style of the Yuan Dynasty, especially the calligraphy style of Zhao Mengxi dating back to the Jin and Tang Dynasties.
The rulers used books to recruit scholars, and gradually formed the "Taige style" calligraphy style. This type of calligraphy is represented by the Three Song Dynasty and the Second Shen Dynasty, namely Song Ke, Song Sui, Song Guang, Shen Du and Shen Can.
In the middle period, calligraphy can be traced back to the meaning of the Song Dynasty, forming a typical Ming Dynasty calligraphy trend called "Shangshi" and "Shangtai" by later generations. This trend is especially outstanding among calligraphers in the Wumen area.
In the late Ming Dynasty, calligraphy showed a diversified and diversified pattern, mainly represented by Xing Dong, Zhang Ruitu, Dong Qichang, and Mi Wanzhong, breaking the dominance of Taige style and Wumen calligraphy.
He Liangjun said in "Si You Zhai Shu Lun": "The book comes from the Great Order." Wang Shizhen also said that "the book was originally copied from Yongxing and Daling".
In fact, Wang Chong¡¯s regular script, especially small regular script, widely absorbed the strengths of famous small regular script calligraphers in the Jin and Tang Dynasties and came up with his own ideas.
This point can be seen from the "Wang Yayi's Copying of Jin and Tang Xiaokai Albums" in Volume 4 of "Guyuan Cuilu". In the third month of Jiajing Jiashen, Wang Chong copied Chu Henan's calligraphy. The postscript says: "Mr. Hengshan is the master of calligraphy in this world. How can I love a book?" I caught a glimpse of the Ying family and saw that Gu Meng was addicted to scabs and was puzzled. In the past, when I was studying in the thatched cottage, I used to catch the four chapters of the Ming Dynasty book. I finished it when I was five years old. I didn't understand it, but I was fortunate to teach it.
It can be seen that Wang Chong spent five years studying the works of famous artists of the Jin and Tang Dynasties. There is no doubt that Wang Chong has covered a wide range of works.
Wang Chong¡¯s calligraphy art style mainly has three stages. In the first stage, Wang Chong was greatly influenced by Cai Yu, who emphasized legality. His calligraphy works at this time are represented by "Self-written Poems" and "Seven Poems for Farewell to Brothers and Fulfillment of Contracts".
The second stage is the mature period of Wang Chong's calligraphy. There are many works handed down from generation to generation, and it is the period when the regular calligraphy of famous masters of Jin and Tang Dynasty was widely adopted. The calligraphy of Wang Chong was followed by the two kings of Wu and Sun Guoting. The brushwork changes, giving people a refreshing and fast feeling overall.
The representative works of this period include "Book of Records", "Seven Poems on Xinsi's Calligraphy", "Book of Travels to Baoshan", etc.
The third stage is a period when Wang Chong's calligraphy style is more changeable. His style ranges from unbridled and wandering to rigorous and comfortable.
But the overall style is still dilute and tranquil, calm and calm that cannot be replaced by others. The most representative works include "Preface to Han Yu's Farewell to Li Yuan's Return to Pangu", "Self-written Long Scroll", "Lotus Blossoms in Six Quatrains", etc.
After finishing the appreciation, Meng Zhe entered the auction hall with unconcealable joy. The best bidder is naturally the work of the painter Pierre Pengonpin, who is favored by most people.
The intensity of the bidding was much more intense than the auction house expected, with waves of bidding getting higher and higher. The fierce bidding for these paintings also sparked fierce competition for subsequent lots.
Wang Chong's Nanhua Sutra in small regular script, which had not attracted the attention of the auction house, was arranged to be auctioned during lunch time. This made Meng Zhe very happy. ?Haha, if you bid on meal time, there will naturally be fewer competitors.
The "Garden of Eden" that Jon liked and the "Year of Wheat" that Meng Zhe liked were finally photographed by Jon.
The next most intense auction was the Poussin work "I am also in Arcadia" that Meng Zhe just explained.
The bidding far exceeded the estimate. This was something neither the film studio nor Meng Zhe expected. This painting finally fell into the hands of the old man who just asked the question.
Due to the fierce bidding on the previous lot, a lot of time was wasted, and Meng Zhe¡¯s favorite Wang Chong Xiaokai did not appear until 1 noon.
Meng Zhe glanced around and saw that there were only five people sitting in the auction room besides him and Qiaoen.
He saw the old man who had just asked him "I am also in Arcadia" among the people who stayed.
When the eyes of the two people met, the old man who was talking in a low voice to the lady next to him raised his hand and adjusted his glasses. He nodded at him and smiled at the same time. He also smiled in response to the old man.
When Meng Zhe looked at the others, he found that the man with swollen eyes sitting in the last row was deliberately avoiding his gaze.
Huh? This bidding is an open and honest matter, "Goldfish Pao", why are you afraid of people looking at you? Have you done something shameful and feel guilty?
Meng Zhe frowned when he thought of this, those eyes? He thought of the eyes behind him that he had just felt.
He quietly slipped into that person's heart. Holy shit! Whatever I take, you take it too? It turns out that it was because I was too showy during the appreciation just now that I got this person¡¯s attention!
Come on, I¡¯ve become someone else¡¯s appraiser! This is the competitor you have invited. Meng Zhe complained in his heart. This is really a mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind!
I¡¯m so stupid. It was a pre-auction appreciation meeting, not a gallery viewing of paintings. (1) What are you talking about? Okay, now I have summoned the wolf.
He also gained wisdom through every experience and sneaked into the old man's heart. As expected, it was because of him that he stayed.
This shooting place is like a battlefield. If you are not careful, you will become the enemy's gun! This time it really makes people use it as a weapon.
This incident reminded him that he must be strict with his mouth when going to auction sites in the future. From now on, whenever you see something good at an auction site, you must describe it as worthless.
¡°Otherwise, I really don¡¯t know how much more wasted money I have to spend to get the good things I like. It would be best to be able to say that others think it is a fake.
Fortunately, I have the ability to read minds, so I can know your base price! This way I won¡¯t be afraid of not being able to take a photo! Then let me hear your base prices too!
ah! It turns out that you two are Potter's henchmen! Damn it, Potter, did we have any blood feud in our previous lives? Why do you always have trouble with me?
Are you willing to spend money to ruin my good deeds? It's so wicked of you to make such a damaging move after losing money! Meng Zhe dared to conclude that the eyes behind him must be these two people.
There is really a wolf in front and a tiger in back! The wolves in front are easy to deal with, and I can know their base price.
Generally speaking, these investment-oriented buyers naturally focus on the value of the object, and they will naturally stop buying it if it exceeds their psychological reserve price.
The tiger behind here will be difficult to deal with. The purpose of this rich Potter's seeking a legion couldn't be more obvious, which was to prevent himself from getting this thing.
"You can't compete with Potter for money, so why bother to hire a stand-in for the filming?" late! How can this be done? Do you just give up like this? What a pity! After thinking about it, Meng Zhe decided to wait and see what happens.
It turns out that Porter was also invited to attend today's auction. As he arrived late, he happened to hear people talking about Meng Zhe.
When he came in, Meng Zhe happened to go to see Wang Chong's Xiaokai Nanhua Zhengzheng. Needless to say, Meng Zhe felt that the eyes behind him were of course Potter's.
Porter, who was feeling depressed and unbearable, saw Meng Zhe standing in front of the lot for a long time and concluded that Meng Zhe had taken a fancy to it. Naturally, he couldn't let Meng Zhe get what he wanted as he was so worried. So he ordered his two bodyguards to participate in the bidding.
¡° Anyway, I have plenty of money, I don¡¯t care how much that thing is worth, as long as it doesn¡¯t fall into the hands of a son of a bitch like you, I¡¯ll be happy! Potter was pleased with his arrangement.
The auctioneer was a little distracted when he saw the pitiful number of people in the audience. He said weakly: "Lot No. 95, the starting price is 2,500 euros." The estimate of Wang Chong's Nanhua Sutra in small regular script is 5,000-10,000 euros.
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Zhe sat in the "Goldfish Pavilion" and quickly raised his number plate, using him as a gunman.
"Mr. No. 136 bids 3,000 euros." The base price of the auction determines the amount of the increase for each placard.
The auctioneer hasn¡¯t started shouting yet.The old man sitting behind Meng Zhe and the others also raised his cards.
"Mr. No. 57 bids, 3500 euros." Seeing someone bidding "Goldfish Bubble", he raised his sign again. The old man didn't show any weakness either.
After several rounds of bidding, the price rose to 8,000 euros. The auctioneer, who was a little lazy at first, smelled the possibility of a high price for this lot and began to cheer up.
He deliberately slowed down his shouting tone, and occasionally cast his questioning eyes on Meng Zhe and the two dog legs, intending to ask, sir, are you interested? If you are interested, please bid!
