This Ming Dynasty landscape painting without a clear inscription was bought by Zhao Zhongnan from an antique market in the capital at a cost of more than 100,000 yuan.

Although he couldn't identify the author and background of this painting, he could tell that it was made by masters of calligraphy and painting in the late Ming Dynasty just from the style and material of the painting. If it weren't for the lack of a clear inscription to know the origin of a painting and calligraphy work in the late Ming Dynasty, it would be absolutely impossible for Zhao Zhongnan to buy it for only a few hundred thousand.

It can be said that as long as the story and author behind this painting and calligraphy are known, even if it is a slightly famous painter in the late Ming Dynasty, the value of this painting can be multiplied several times, and it can reach millions at auction.

However, for this kind of ancient calligraphy and painting works that have not been signed, we can barely judge who the author is only through the study of the painter's style and various historical allusions. This is not a job that ordinary people can do. It must be well-founded and convincing.

Generally speaking, only the judgment of experts in the field of painting or collectors who have researched in this area can convince the public.

Zhao Zhongnan came to teacher Ye Huiqin's house this time, using this excuse to ask Ye Lao to help identify this ancient painting. In fact, it is to do what they like, to draw closer the relationship, even Zhao Zhongnan has already decided in his heart, after identifying the origin of the ancient painting, he will give this painting to Ye Lao by the way, so as to bring the relationship between the two closer .

"Oh? It's a landscape painting from the Ming Dynasty? Then I need to see it..."

Ye Lao had nothing else to do all his life, and spent all his time and energy in the field of calligraphy and painting. It can be said that she is one of the few living masters in the Chinese painting circle who has learned Chinese and Western skills, especially the paintings and calligraphy of ancient Chinese dynasties, the works and styles of hundreds of famous masters, Ye Lao is very familiar with them.

Especially in the calligraphy and painting works of the Ming Dynasty, talents came out in large numbers, and many famous calligraphers and paintings emerged. Ye Lao is also particularly fond of and interested in the calligraphy and painting works of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, when he heard that Zhao Zhongnan had brought an unsigned painting and calligraphy work of the late Ming Dynasty, Ye Lao immediately put down the dishes under his hand, walked up with great interest, and carefully looked at the Ming Dynasty landscape painting in front of him. .

"Ancient paintings from the Ming Dynasty? Lin Feng, the paintings from the Ming Dynasty are what grandma likes the most. Shall we go and have a look?"

Qin Yanran was taught by her grandmother since she was a child. Although she is not an art candidate, her art skills are even stronger than those of some professional art academy students, and she has a certain understanding of the styles of painters from different dynasties and generations.

And when Lin Feng saw this painting while sitting on the sofa, he actually felt very familiar with it.

When he got closer with Qin Yanran and took a closer look, he suddenly realized that he patted his head and said with a smile, "I thought it was that painting! It turned out to be this one!"

"Huh? Lin Feng, do you recognize this painting? Even grandma hasn't seen it yet. Have you seen this painting before?"

Qin Yanran stared at it for a long time, but still could not distinguish the origin and author of this painting, and saw her grandma frowning and thinking with a magnifying glass. But Lin Feng only glanced at it twice, as if he knew everything about the painting, so he inevitably asked him a strange question.

"It's recognized!"

Lin Feng, who was excited for a while, couldn't help but blurt out those words just now. When Qin Yanran questioned him like this, he quickly said with a sloppy eye.

But when he said it so modestly, he was noticed by Zhao Shuang and his son. In order to restore the situation that had just been shattered, Zhao Shuang sneered unceremoniously with squinted eyes: "You, a high school student in a small county town, can also see such an antique? This is a painting of the Ming Dynasty, hundreds of years ago!"

"Little brother! Even Mr. Ye hasn't seen the origin of the painting, so you say you recognize this painting? Isn't it too self-reliant? You wouldn't compare this painting with the one you saw in the art textbook. Are those landscape, flower and bird paintings confused? Haha!"

Seizing this opportunity, Zhao Zhongnan made fun of Lin Fengdao without hesitation. Even he, Ye Lao's student and a well-known domestic collector, can only tell that this painting is in the style of the late Ming Dynasty. It is still unclear who made it, and it needs an expert of Ye Lao's level to appraise it.

And Lin Feng, a high school student who didn't know anything, dared to say he recognized this ancient painting, which made Zhao Zhongnan feel extremely ridiculous. He felt that Lin Feng must have confused this real ancient painting with those introduced in art textbooks.

"Dad! Even you, a collector who has seen countless ancient paintings, can't judge the origin of this painting. What does he know as a high school student! I'm afraid that an 'ancient painting' that came off the assembly line that was randomly picked up from a street vendor, He thinks it's an antique! Haha..."

Zhao Shuang held the ancient painting in one hand, covered his mouth with the other hand, and couldn't help laughing. In his opinion, Lin Feng, a country bumpkin, knows what an antique painting is! It must be trying to show off without knowing how to pretend to know.

Hearing the voices of the two father and son mocking him, Lin Feng smiled helplessly and shook his head. Originally, he didn't want to say it, but the two father and son took this matter to criticize him in front of grandma and Yanran, Lin Feng couldn't bear it.

For this painting, Lin Feng not only recognized it, but from another aspect, it can be said that this painting was painted by Lin Feng. Why do you say that? Because the author of this painting is actually one of the masters of the 24 Dinghai God Beads that has been passed down to the present, Zhu Da, a master of painting circles in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties who is known as Bada Shanren.

Lin Feng, who has almost all of Zhu Da's memory inheritance, recognized this painting from the huge memory bank at the first sight. This painting is exactly the painting "Landscape, Fish and Birds" painted by Zhu Da in his later years.

In fact, Lin Feng knew exactly how Zhu Da put down each stroke and how the concept was laid out when he painted this painting at that time, from the memory bank. After integrating these memories, Lin Feng looked at this painting again, as if he was Zhu Da from Badashan, and this painting was made by himself.

"How about it? Brat, don't brag! How can you recognize this kind of antique painting? Obediently stand aside and wait for Teacher Ye's judgment. Young people, for a little vanity, don't pretend to understand, it's easy It was a joke."

Lin Feng was stunned for a while as he carefully searched for the gaps in his memory, but Zhao Zhongnan thought he was guilty and embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, I really happen to recognize this painting." After integrating these memories, Lin Feng retorted confidently.

"Can you recognize it? Don't be kidding. Even I can't tell. If you can really recognize it, why not give this painting to you?" Zhao Zhongnan said with a smile.
