The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Chapter 551: 1 fish on the plate

Everyone returned to the yacht first, because everyone hadn't driven before, and it was a little tired to stroll around this time, so it happened to take a rest on the yacht.

At the same time, Charlize Theron was really a big purchase before. Although he didn't spend much money, he bought a lot of things. I plan to go to Chic this evening, it is not convenient to bring it, it is best to put it back on the yacht first, not to mention that this will also bring a blue and white market.

Is Yuan Qinghua expensive?

This is not expensive, because there are no well-known cases of auction transactions. Before the "Guiguzi Xiashan Tucan" was speculated at sky-high prices by Western professional speculators, Yuan Qinghua was not noticed by wealthy international collectors.

Upon returning to the yacht, Zhang Nan took the large plate out of the temporarily packed box and placed it on the table in the salon.

"Anan, when is this?"

Guan Xingquan's eyes were sharp, and when he saw that the bottom of the plate was unglazed and there was no signature, he asked.

Although the patterns and lines on the front of the market have a strong Islamic style, Mr. Guan always feels that this thing should be a Chinese object.

Zhang Nan is also looking at the plate carefully: in the porcelain shop, because of the glass, it feels that the plate is blue and white, but even if Xiao Nizi paid the money, he didn't get it, so that the owner would not regret it.

Upon hearing the question from Brother Guan, Zhang Nan said, "It was from the Yuan Dynasty."

"Yuan Dynasty, is this a piece of Chinese porcelain?"

The question is Xiao Charlie: She really didn't know that this was something from China, and she really thought it was a Turkish baby.

Zhang Nan said: "Do you know the Yuan Dynasty?"

Xiao Nizi nodded, "The terrifying Mongolian, the destroyer of civilization, kills people and likes to slaughter the city without blinking an eye. I didn't expect those savages to make such beautiful things."

Zhang Nan heard this and said: "The porcelain art of China has a long history. This blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty should be the craftsmanship of the Chinese Han people, but it was fired according to the requirements of the Mongolians at that time..."

This is a blue and white fish algae pattern folded edge plate, measuring with a ruler, the diameter reaches 45 cm!

Super big!

The large plate has a wide mouth and folded edges, shallow arc walls and circle feet, and the whole body looks vigorous and majestic.

The edge of the mouth is decorated with flowers and leaves, the inner wall is painted with tangled branch lotus, the center is round and the fish is painted with algae, the middle is a plump and vivid fish, surrounded by floating algae, and the outer wall is decorated with tangled branches and precious flowers.

The painting style is the typical style of Yuan Dynasty, with distinct levels, magnificent and majestic, bold and elegant.

The blue and white color material is a typical "Su Ma Liqing" material in the Yuan Dynasty. The color is blue and green, with dark brown spots on the cloth, showing natural tin light.

"...This kind of Soviet material is imported from the Western Regions. Compared with the domestically produced green material of China at that time, the color is more natural and the price is more expensive.

Moreover, the original painting style of Yuan Dynasty painters was bold and unrestrained, both rigid and soft, with blue and white suede materials. Later imitators were either feminine or rough and unrestrained, the essence of which is rare. "

Guan Xingquan also took a close look at the plate: This thing is very beautiful, but the ruler of the Yuan Dynasty did not believe in Islam, why does this plate have an Islamic taste?

"I remember that you have a Yuan Qinghua jar in your house, which is not the same thing."

After listening to Boss Guan, several other people in the salon were watching Zhang Nan, but Charlie was anxious and asked: "I didn't see it?"

"My home in China."

"Oh."

"That jar is a figure jar, it painted ancient Chinese historical stories, of course there is no foreign style."

"Brother Ellen, why are China's antiques in Turkey? They were stolen before?"

After getting to know Zhang Nan, Xiao Nizi deliberately went to understand China, knowing that from more than 100 years ago until the victory of World War II, China has been weak for more than a hundred years.

"No, Turkey is just a good thing. During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the troops sent by Turkey were basically wiped out by us.

It's just for export.

Due to historical traditions and cultural reasons, we Chinese Han people did not like blue and white porcelain during the Song and Yuan dynasties. At that time, we preferred single-color porcelain, such as celadon and white porcelain. This blue and white porcelain was too flowery in the eyes of people at that time.

At that time, most of the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty was exported to the Western Regions. The decoration and shape of the porcelain were close to the Islamic culture. Many of them were fired by foreign aristocrats and used for important occasions such as large-scale banquets.

The Mongol Tartars of that meeting were also fierce, occupying half of the earth. At that time, Turkey was under the rule of the Mongols, but some small countries and local forces were not completely slaughtered by the Mongols, and they became a subsidiary of the Mongols. country.

I remember that there should be three objects of the same type as this large plate, one should be in the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, Turkey, the second one in the Iran Archaeological Museum in Tehran, and the last one was unearthed at the original Tuglu in Delhi, India. The palace of the dynasty, the ruins of Firuzia Fort.

It can be inferred that at that time these porcelains were supposed to be imperial porcelains and enjoyed a noble status in the Western Regions.

There are not many blue-and-white porcelains in the Yuan Dynasty. The currently identified Yuan blue-and-white porcelains are globally recognized as being between more than 200 and 400 pieces, and they account for more than half of them in national museums such as Turkey, Iran, the United States, Britain, and Japan.

China’s domestic museums and archaeological discoveries are not as many as China’s foreign counterparts. First, there was a discrepancy between Yuan blue and white traditional Chinese thoughts and aesthetics. Second, this thing was originally exported. "

This is a bit like the Cantonese porcelain in the Qing Dynasty. The exquisite products were mainly returned from abroad. The original ones in China were "exported for domestic sales". The gorgeous colors and patterns did not appeal to most Chinese people at that time.

Xiao Nizi listened to her as if she didn't understand, and focused her attention on the plate again, and then found that the fish in the middle of the plate had never been seen.

"What kind of fish is this?"

"Bream, but in America, Randy would call it an Asian carp."

Little Charlie knows about Asian carp: Americans call almost all freshwater fish from Asia as Asian carp, except black fish.

This is a very interesting plate because of the fish!

The fish algae pattern in the plate is an important decoration of the Yuan blue and white porcelain. Usually, the Yuan blue and white porcelain with the fish algae pattern is painted with four or two fish, and most of the fish are mandarin fish, and the heart of this plate is painted with a single bream. Fish, it looks very special.

At this time, Guan Xingquan suddenly smiled and said: "In that store, I always feel that this is a Chinese plate. It turned out to be because of this Wuchang fish!"

The Super Soldier has amazing observation ability ~www.readwn.com~ But this time Guan Xingquan discovered that he had apparently had an observation and judgment loophole just now!

Wuchang fish, there is a hairy Wuchang fish in Turkey!

Zhang Nan heard the words of Boss Guan and said, "Brother Guan, this is a bream. Even if it is a Wuchang fish or Wuchang fish, it can be considered a kind of bream, but it was still a bream in the Yuan Dynasty. ."

Zhang Nan's words were a bit awkward, and it was Guan Xingquan's turn to ask why.

"In the 1950s, more than 30 researchers from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences discovered a kind of bream in Liangzi Lake, Ezhou, which was not in the previous literature, so they named it Tuantou bream, commonly known as Wuchang fish.

Don't ask me the difference between the two fishes, I can't tell them apart.

Wuchang fish only existed 30 years ago, so..."

Zhang Nan pointed to the plate, "This is a bream."

When Boss Guan heard this, he was too lazy to take care of others, so he took a Spanish straw hat that Xiao Nizi had given him, and walked to the stern of the boat.

"Is it tasty?"

There are more ideas for snacks.

"Well, the taste is first-rate. But if you want to eat, you have to learn to use chopsticks."

"Why?"

Xiao Nizi is puzzled, one hundred thousand why.

"There are so many thorns, using a knife and fork can drive you crazy!"

Why don't Westerners eat freshwater fish other than carnivorous fish?

The argument about water pollution is actually partial. Zhang Nan personally feels that it is because of the fishbone.

Eating carp and crucian with a knife and fork is a disaster, not to mention dealing with bream, which has a lot of bones!

But suddenly I thought of something that I didn't understand: Westerners seem to eat sardines. There are so many spines and more bones than freshwater breams!

How did they do it?

Xiao Nizi was afraid of fish bones, and suddenly had no love for breams.

"Give you something, it suits your outfit."

Thinking of giving Xiao Nizi something to reward. rw
