Chapter 549 Museum
"That's right. They also heard about the country's newly published "Qianlong Edition Tripitaka", so they wanted to request the country to make a copy of the original Dragon Tibetan Sutra Brocade Box. , and got a new set of "Qianlong Edition Tripitaka" and put it back in the Tripitaka Pavilion. To roughly restore the original appearance."
"You old Gu!" Master Denzin is actually older than Gu Zhenduo, but because he looks young and strong, he seems to be young after all. It was like a whole round, and the two of them were joking like this, which seemed like Master Tenzin didn't respect his teacher.
But when he turned to look at Zhou Zhi, he became cautious: "Then our school will accept this illustrated book?"
"If the master is worried, we will Hold a donation ceremony?" Zhou Zhi also wanted to tease Mengzi.
"Don't make trouble, you elbow!" Godmother quickly stopped: "Aren't you worried about getting Master in your turn?!"
"It would be good to have a donation ceremony." Director Jiang said: "This way it will be easier for everyone to talk to each other in the future! Clear."
"That's right, that makes sense." Master Tenzin nodded: "Then get one quickly. !”
“Is it so casual?” Zhou Zhi was stunned: “Now?”
“Director Jiang is the director of our provincial calligraphy association. He came to give you some certificates. You're making money." Gu Zhenduo said this as if Zhou Zhi was taking advantage, making Zhou Zhi complain that his butt determines his head.
The godmother said to her son: "Qiao Mu, I remember there is a camera in the car. Let's take a photo." , to help solidify this "deal".
They are all elders, Zhou Zhi could only obey obediently, went through the process, and accepted the "Donation Certificate and Letter of Thank You" with his outstanding calligraphy and literary talent, together with his godmother, Director Jiang, Master, and Danzeng Surrounded by the masters, they held certificates behind the cultural relics and took photos together.
When everything was done, Director Yuan said: "It is better to transport the batch of "Longzang Sutra" from Jiachuan as soon as possible. After all, it is hundreds of years old. It is better to keep it in the institute. OK."
"Okay, I'll call home right now," the godmother said with a smile.
"I wonder if you like museums?" Director Jiang accepted Zhou Zhi's kindness today. After all, the two important cultural relics must be stored in the museum, and the museum is naturally under the management of the Department of History.
I couldn’t come up with anything good to entertain. Seeing that Zhou Zhi seemed to be quite interested in cultural relics, I had no choice but to invite Zhou Zhi to visit the museum.
“Maybe you can go to the restoration center to have a look.” Director Yuan smiled and joked: “After all, I have made an appointment with Jiuzi, and I will do an internship there in the future, right?”
"Let's go to the museum." Although Jiang Shuyi followed Zhou Zhi obediently and didn't say much, Zhou Zhi thought that she would not be interested in a room full of worn-out old papers, so it would be better to go to the museum to see the curiosities.
Every museum has its treasures, which are usually not open to the public for free viewing. Today, Director Jiang was very generous and allowed guests to watch as they please.
"In the 20th year of the Republic of China, the Shudu University Museum had been established. At that time, we had more than 6,000 specimens, all of which were stored and displayed in Hepei Academy of West China Union University." "By the 25th year of the Republic of China, the museum's collection of cultural relics had exceeded Fifteen thousand items mainly include cultural relics of ethnic minorities, Min, Sichuan and Kang Province. Jiang Culture brings old and new stone tools. In addition, there are more than 700 pieces of clothing and embroidery from the Qing Dynasty, 400 pieces of snuff bottles, about 1,000 pieces of porcelain, bronzes, jades, ancient springs, pearls and ornaments from the Qing Dynasty, Han figurines, Guanghan relics, etc. ."
"After the founding of New China, the museum The collection continued to expand, and by the end of May 1st inventory, the collection had reached more than 35,000 items. "
"Now it has greatly expanded, with a total of more than 40,000 sets and more than 60,000 items. , including stone carvings, calligraphy and painting, ceramics, bronzes, ancient coins, ancient seals, embroidery, lacquerware, rubbings, etc. There are ten categories, especially the collection of calligraphy and painting, ceramics, art sculptures, and ethnic cultural relics and folk cultural relics.”
It is said to be a museum, but in fact it is not open to the public. When Director Jiang turned on the lights, What came face to face was a nearly three-meter-tall dinosaur fossil.
"Eh? And this?" Zhou Zhi was surprised.
"It belongs to another department, but there is no place to store it, so it is temporarily placed here with us, as well as many minerals, animal and plant specimens."
The nature that Zhou Zhi is most interested in It's porcelain, calligraphy and painting, he At present, the level of porcelain appraisal can only be said to be specialized in Song porcelain and blue and white. The rest of the official or quasi-official kiln porcelains of the Qing Dynasty can basically not fool him, but after the Tang, Five Dynasties, Yuan, Ming, Qing, and the Republic of China, there are some It's so eye-catching that you can probably identify it 80% of the time.
The Shu Museum has porcelain from the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. For example, today is a perfect opportunity to make up for the lesson.
For example, a large number of Tang Dynasty tricolor porcelain and white glazed porcelain came from Huangye kiln, Lushan kiln in the north, and Shifang kiln in Qionglai, central Sichuan.
A layman can watch the fun, an expert can watch the door, especially all the porcelain. Director Jiang allows Zhou Zhi to get his hands on it and take a closer look. This is really a big deal.
Zhou Zhi held a cup in his hand, turning it gently to look at it. He couldn't put it down, for fear of missing every detail.
“The Tang Dynasty had frequent exchanges with the ethnic groups in the Western Regions, and as the era advocated novelty, the images of Hu people became very common in various artworks.”
“This cultural relic The name of the cup is called 'Tanghuang Ye Kiln Huren Holding Horn Cup'. It is shaped like a high nose, deep eyes, and curly beard. The image of a barbarian man kneeling on the ground, tightly holding a horn cup that is about the same size as his body with both hands. "
"This cup is a wine vessel, about seventeen centimeters high, poured into the horn cup. The wine can flow into the hollow body of the Hu people, subtly increasing the capacity of the cup.”
"Is this really used for drinking? Or is it the shape of an open vessel?" Zhou Zhi felt a little curious and felt that drinking from such a cup was always a bit weird.
"Of course it is a bright weapon." Director Jiang said with a smile: "In fact, this is also a characteristic of our country's funeral system. All objects shaped into human figures are generally not daily necessities, but are mainly used for burials. Use a bright weapon."
"You are good at elbows. You can get ideas just by asking."
