Chapter 381 Panoramic View
It is a "Child Peeping at the Play" with a three-dimensional effect. From that angle, the stage on the bottle, the glazed eaves, the lawns, rockeries, and waterside pavilions inside the wall, Characters such as Hua Dan, Xiaosheng, Tsing Yi, painted faces, tables and chairs, musicians; closer to the pond at the bottom of the bottle, jiada, swimming fish, behind the wall near the bottleneck, bamboo, stone and flower trees, big trees, distant mountains, plantains, children peeping at play, swallows in the air, All of a sudden it became three-dimensional.
"Twist the bottle." The fourth cousin stared directly at the big prize bottle: "This trick becomes..."
Zhou Zhi gently turned the bottle, and all four sides My aunt suddenly grabbed my fourth cousin's arm: "This is... a panoramic view! No, it's a hundred times more magical than the panoramic view in the painting! "
"It is indeed a sweeping technique." The fourth cousin nodded: "But the changes in the amplitude of the vase are also cleverly used, which is a hundred times more complicated than the sweeping technique of painting on a flat surface, so it creates a unique effect. The three-dimensional effect is a hundred times more magical, it’s truly a work of art!”
"Aunt, what does Tongjing mean?"
"You put your things down first, be careful." said the fourth aunt.
“Oh.”
“This panoramic view is actually a Western perspective technique.” The fourth cousin said: “This kind of painting can be seen in Old Summer Palace, Jingshengzhai and Juanqinzhai of the Forbidden City. Yes.”
“However, the landscape paintings of Yuanmingyuan and Jingshengzhai have been destroyed, and only Juanqinzhai is still preserved.”
"The panoramic painting there depicts the entire ceiling as a wisteria, which is covered with wisterias and blooming with blue-purple flowers. Through the wisteria and branches and leaves, one can see the blue sky from the gap. . ”
“It’s all drawn in the form of wisteria flowers. The shape varies depending on the distance and perspective. If the viewer stands at a certain point in front of the stage and looks up to the ceiling from this point, he will find a flower on the wisteria hanging just above his head. , in a positive perspective."
"With this flower as the center, Gradually moving away from the surrounding flowers, the flowers gradually become slanted. The farther away from the central flower, the greater the slope of the flower shape, and the farthest flower is almost lying flat."
< br>"But when you stand at this point and look towards the stage, you will find The picture changed, and the flowers on the wisteria trellis magically turned into drooping shapes."
"The painter used this superb expression technique to create a wonderful three-dimensional optical illusion. . This method is called 'through view'. ”
"In other words, the art of panoramic view is to use Western perspective techniques to transform the picture on the plane at a specific observation point, through clever painting techniques and the viewer's visual illusion, so that the picture can create a three-dimensional Visual effects?”
“Well, that’s what I mean,” the fourth cousin said to Zhou Zhi. "How did you discover this mechanism?" The painting method of this bottle is really weird, so I finally determined that it should be an imitation of a later dynasty folk kiln, or maybe it was There were no defective products in the official kiln, until I got up a little slowly and discovered the secret."
"You are so lucky." The fourth aunt said with a smile. When appreciating a vase, one should add the word "Tong Sing" - a boy from the Qianlong official kiln looks at the double lion-eared multi-colored vase with a panoramic view. "
In fact, after Zhou Zhi discovered the secret of this porcelain vase, he had already determined that it was from the official kiln of Qianlong. It is conceivable that the craftsmanship of this thing is too difficult, so it was officially known as the "Mother of Porcelain". The name should be called "Large Porcelain Vase with Various Glaze Colors", just like the Qianlong vase, it has become an orphan.
Now that he has received the approval from his fourth aunt and uncle, Zhou Zhi is of course even happier.
“How much did you spend on the elbow?”
“Four hundred, I bought it as a defective imitation of Qianlong. It’s a cabbage price.”
“It’s really The price of cabbage." The fourth cousin couldn't help but twitch his lips and muttered: " Anyone who buys this thing has to look at it. Who knew that during the Qianlong period, Tang Ying also applied the panoramic view technique to porcelain..." "What about this one?" The fourth aunt picked up the elder brother's glazed fish basket and said, "What's the doubt about this? ”
"Here," Zhou Zhi pushed a few things nearby to his fourth aunt: "This is the seller and these items - a tiger pen holder with copper and silver backing, a dustpan, brick and inkstone, a seal carved from the tip of the birthday star's tooth, a blue and white The lotus leaf pen lick was given to me as a study set, one thousand and five dollars."
"Why was it picked out alone?" the fourth aunt asked with a smile.
“Because this thing is just like the porcelain vase, weird.”
“What’s weird?”
“From the bottom of the tire, there are traces of nails, purple mouth and iron feet, Judging from the characteristics of the gold and iron wire, which are cut into pieces of varying thicknesses, this should be a fine product from the Ge Kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty. ”
"But there is another big question, which is the shape of the vessel."
"According to Liu Sanye, the styles of the Ge Kiln handed down from generation to generation are all in the shape of ritual vessels, and the shape of this porcelain is similar to that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The shape of the fish basket statue is different from that of the Ge Kiln handed down from ancient times, so it was It is designated as Ming imitation, so it cannot be called Ge Kiln, it can only be called 'Ge Glaze'."
The fourth aunt turned over the porcelain to carefully identify it, and said: "Jingdezhen Pottery from Lanpu in the Qing Dynasty. According to the records in Volume 6 of "Research on the Antique Kiln in the Town", the Ge Kiln was from the Song Dynasty. This is the Longquan Liutian kiln that was fired in the dynasty. It was built by brothers named Zhang from Chuzhou. Each brother had one child. At that time, the other pottery was made by his elder brother, and it was called Ge kiln. "
"Ge kiln porcelain clay. The veins are thin and purple, and the texture is quite thin. There are purple iron legs and many broken lines and cracks like fish roe. The glaze color varies, but there are two types: beige and pink-green. The pure glaze is the most expensive." The hidden patterns are like crab claws; the broken vessel patterns are broken into small and large pieces.”
"Ge kiln and Guan kiln both source soil from the same place. Therefore, it is said in history that 'those with good color are like officials, and are also called Baji broken'. They can only be identified through hidden patterns and juice glaze, which is slightly inferior to Guan kiln."< br>
“So the records about Ge Kiln in "Nanyao Notes" It's because 'Ge Kiln is Zhang Kiln. After leaving Hangzhou Daguan, brothers surnamed Zhang, who were also from Chuzhou, made pottery in Xiunei Temple. As for porcelain, the article says that the Ge Kiln is actually in the Guan Kiln. It was secretly made by two brothers, so the glaze color is like that of an official kiln. However, the texture is thick and hard, and the ink paint is hidden. It has a unique glaze color, which is also thick and has several colors: pink green, moon white, and light tooth. ."
"The article also records: There is also a dark beige color. It is a brother kiln, so it is extremely precious."
"It seems that after the brothers learned the craftsmanship in the official kiln, they produced a large number of fine porcelain that was almost comparable to the official kiln, and became the first type of Song porcelain recognized by later generations. Excellent product.”
"Maybe it didn't come out at all and became a public-private partnership." The fourth cousin said: "Because the kiln site of Ge Kiln has not been found yet, maybe the two brothers have been using the official kiln for firing."
"Let's put it anyway." Zhou Zhi nodded: "Except for the shape of the porcelain, all the other features are completely consistent with the Ge Kiln, so I think Liu Sanye's conclusion is too arbitrary. ”
Four My aunt smiled at her fourth cousin and said, "Mr. Liu Sanye in the elbow mouth must also be a connoisseur in the capital of Shu. Unfortunately, he has seen too many good things, so he classified unfamiliar artifacts with slight deviations as The ranks of imitations.”
The fourth cousin took the fish basket master and rubbed it twice: "I dare not doubt my own knowledge system, and I dare not break through my self-perception. This is called a barrier of knowledge and vision."
