The picture of this painting is yellow, which seems to be some years old, but the mounting of the whole painting is not exquisite. On the right side of the painting, the words "Ming Dynasty" begin, followed by the words "Yuanjiang, Sanqiu", and there are two seals, which are not very clear.
The left part of the picture is the main body, showing the customs and people's feelings of Qinhuai at that time. Some people sell vegetables, some make clothes, some do divination, some do business, cars come and go, and it's very lively, and a prosperous scene of people living and working in peace and contentment. The map also clearly marked ten famous scenic spots in Qinhuai at that time, such as Jubaomen, Wendeqiao, Gong Yuan, Tianxia Wen Shu and Taoyedu. The whole picture is clear, but some words are not clear enough, and the lines drawn are not smooth enough, too neat and too dull.
Mr. Huang introduced that a few years ago, he passed a waste collection station not far from home and saw the owner of the collection station and several young men talking about a painting. The boss told him that while sorting out the furniture he bought with his buddies, he accidentally found a painting in the drawer. He saw that the color of the painting was a little old, with the words "Yuanjiang" and "Weng Tonghe" on it. They think this painting should be several years old and more valuable. Mr. Huang observed the painting carefully and liked it a little. "Yuan Jiang was a famous painter in the Qing Dynasty, and Weng Tonghe was the teacher of Emperor Guangxu. This painting also depicts the scenery of Qinhuai and the local customs at that time. I think this painting is very good. " He said.
I heard that Mr. Huang wanted to buy this painting, and the owner of the acquisition station offered 3000 yuan. Finally, after constant bargaining, the transaction was made at the price of 100 yuan. Mr. Huang took this painting home as a treasure. When his family and friends saw it, they all said it was good, but everyone had a question, "Is this painting genuine?"
Yesterday, Mr. Huang measured the painting in front of the reporter. It was 450 cm long and 28.5 cm wide. "The color of this painting seems to be true, but there are some flaws," Mr. Huang said. "There are two courtyards on the map, and there is no seal under Weng Tonghe's signature. At the beginning of the painting, Yuan Jiang's seal is too vague, and some pictures and words are not clear enough. "
"There should be no such problem in the original," Mr. Huang expressed doubts. "In fact, even if it is a fake, I don't care. I like the Qinhuai style depicted in the picture, which is very regional. I feel that this portrait is imitating the Qingming Riverside Map. "
However, Mr. Huang is still a little confused. He wants someone to help him identify it and see if the painting is real and valuable.
News link: Such a painting is not genuine.
This phenomenon has happened in Nanjing before. There are many folk sayings about Ming Sheng's Poems and Pictures, but few people know what Ming Sheng's Poems and Pictures are like, because it has never been published. Experts believe that "Stone Map of Ming Sheng" with the following characteristics is definitely not an original: the brushwork is too neat, there is no unique "ink smell" of Chinese painting, the long lines in the painting are too neat, somewhat dull, and there is no unique sense of randomness in painting with a brush. In addition, the seals of Yuanjiang and Weng are exquisite and generally do not appear rough.
