422 high imitation antique paintings
"It's too much, it's too much..."
Old Yang said modestly, but he and Miss Huang did not agree.
He pulled him to the front of several other porcelains and asked him for advice.
Chen Rui glanced a few times and found that those porcelains should be authentic.
He didn't follow him because he could also notice it.
Miss Huang may want to whisper to Lao Yang, but if she is following her, she will be ignorant.
The store is so large and the products are more than 10,000, so he just started shopping in the store.
This trip really made him feel like he was eye-opening.
Because this store not only contains various porcelains from the Dragon Kingdom.
There are also many jewelry from Yin Kingdom, all of which are old jewelry that has a history of at least decades.
To say this, it is really the strength of European countries.
The workmanship is very exquisite and the materials are very willing to be used.
He was dazzled, and at the same time, he sighed in his heart, but unfortunately Karen did not come with him.
If Karen came together and saw these jewelry, she would definitely be happy.
After reading these jewelry, Chen Rui began to look at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall again.
It turns out that there are still many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls in this shop.
However, most of these calligraphy and paintings in the Dragon Kingdom are imitations from modern times.
However, some Western oil paintings are actually treasures.
Although it is not a masterpiece of famous artists, the rich white light emitted from those oil paintings.
Chen Rui knew that these oil paintings must be old objects from last year.
And from the perspective of flashing, these paintings are definitely also works by some famous artists.
Although it is impossible for a great man like Rembrandt, he must have left his reputation in the history of Western oil painting.
After looking around, he saw an oil painting at the door, which made him feel very interesting.
The painting carries a faint white light, and the painting is painted with a portrait of long hair.
However, it may be because of the poor preservation of this painting that many paints outside the paintings and portraits have fallen off.
This leads to the painting giving people a hazy feeling.
However, from the faint white light emitted by this painting, this painting should be an old painting.
But if you want to say that this painting is a masterpiece, it is definitely not.
Because of this painting, Chen Rui has seen it in the antique market in the United States before, and it has been more than once...
Chen Rui was thinking about what era this painting was from.
Suddenly a voice came from behind him.
"Do you like Western oil paintings too?"
Chen Rui turned his head and saw that it was Huang Meiling who came behind him at some point.
Obviously he had finished talking with Lao Yang, and Lao Yang was smiling on the other side, not knowing what he was talking to the manager.
"Yeah, I like it more."
He smiled and nodded. He was a big player in Western oil painting.
I've visited several museums in the United States, which has greatly enriched his collection of Western oil paintings.
Especially in his collection, there are many works by top Western painters like Rembrandt.
When Huang Meiling heard him say this, she was stunned at first, then looked at him and asked.
"Can you see whose work this painting is?"
Chen Rui took a closer look at the painting.
"I dare not say whose work it is, but it is definitely not Leonardo da Vinci's!"
When Huang Meiling heard what he said, her eyes lit up.
"Why do you say that?"
"Ha, look at the statue of this painting, it should be a copy of Leonardo da Vinci's "The Savior."
"In the works of Leonardo da Vinci's legendary work, this painting is also quite famous."
"Because this painting has been lost for more than 200 years, it has become a severely affected area for fraud."
"I have been in the United States for a decade and have seen too many of these fakes in various antique markets."
"And this one should be the one with the worst maintenance conditions."
"You look at the paint on the paintings falling off..."
Chen Rui pointed to one of the painted paints where it fell off and said to Huang Meiling.
In fact, when Huang Meiling asked him just now, he was also very happy and remembered the information he had checked about this painting a while ago.
It is also because I have seen many imitations of this painting in the American antique market.
So Chen Rui had a whim and checked the information about this painting.
After checking, he was startled.
It turns out that the name of this painting is "The Savior".
The original version was written by the famous Leonardo da Vinci, and it was in the 1500s.
King Louis XII of the Dharma asked Leonardo da Vinci to create it specifically for him.
Later, when French princess Maria married King Charles I in 1625, this painting became her dowry.
And for well-known reasons, Charles I was pushed to the guillotine.
His palace was also captured, and many treasures exclusive to the royal family were thus reduced to the people.
This includes this famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci.
Later, this painting appeared several times among the people of Yin Kingdom, but then disappeared.
It is precisely because of the legendary experience of this painting that many works imitate this painting appeared in later generations.
Therefore, this painting has become a severely affected area for fraud.
In the antique markets in Europe and the United States, such a painting "Savior" appears every now and then.
Then, with various legendary stories, there are always suspicions who are deceived every time.
So, just such a painting became a legend in the counterfeit market.
At this time, Huang Meiling saw that Chen Rui knew this painting so well.
Naturally, he agreed that he knew the fact that oil painting was very good.
"Well, this painting was also bought in a rural market in Yin Kingdom back then."
"I bought it back then just to practice."
Chen Rui was stunned: "Practice?"
"Haha, yes! Don't you know?"
Huang Meiling looked at him in surprise and said.
Chen Rui smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I just like oil painting, but I don't know how to draw oil painting."
Huang Meiling laughed.
"In fact, many beginners of painting will buy these very worn-out old paintings that take off the paint to practice."
"Practice paint matching, continue painting on these old paintings, or repair oil paintings."
"This way you can have a deeper understanding of oil painting..."
Huang Meiling explained to Chen Rui, and Chen Rui nodded with a sudden realization: "So that's it!"
"What a pity. After I bought it, I found out after researching it that this imitation painter should be a master."
"The pigments he used were exactly the same as those of Leonardo da Vinci back then, and I think they had worked hard."
"It's a pity that I always had no paints like him, so I didn't dare to start with this painting."
Huang Meiling continued, and Chen Rui realized that no wonder when she mentioned this painting with her just now.
