Huo Hongtu's eyes widened in disbelief. After a long while, he said: "Wen Zhengming is certainly a famous painter, but how can you be sure that this painting was painted by Wen Zhengming?"
If this is really a work copied by Wen Zhengming himself, even if it is not as good as Shen Zhou's, it will definitely be a priceless treasure.
Because this is an imitation of a famous artist, it is not a deliberate forgery. Although it is classified as a fake, its artistic value is extremely high and it is worth paying attention to and collecting.
Especially for those famous painters, even their imitation paintings are highly sought after and can even be displayed grandly in the National Museum.
Wen Zhengming in history was very famous and had a profound influence on later generations. He was definitely a master figure.
In terms of painting, he, Shen Zhou, Tang Yin and Qiu Ying are collectively known as the "Four Ming Masters".
In literature, he, together with Tang Yin, Zhu Yunming and Xu Zhenqing, are known as the "Four Talents in Wuzhong".
The so-called "Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty", also known as the "Four Masters of the Wu Clan", refer to the four famous painters of the Ming Dynasty.
The "Four Talents of Wuzhong" are often referred to as the "Four Talents of Jiangnan". They lived in the same era, and all of them were talented literati.
When he was young, Wen Zhengming was not very smart and was even a bit dull. He could not speak or walk when he was two years old. He was still unsteady when he was six years old. When he was nine years old, his speech was unclear and he could not speak clearly. Just like a stupid kid.
The other three, Tang Yin, Zhu Yunming and Xu Zhenqing, were able to recite poetry and paint when they were children. They were extremely intelligent and were child prodigies famous throughout Suzhou.
Even after he reached adulthood, Wen Zhengming was mediocre and did not go well. He took nine provincial examinations in his life and failed in them all.
But who would have thought that the one who was the dumbest in his childhood would become a late bloomer, but in the end he would become an all-rounder.
Xu Zhenqing died young, Tang Bohu died in misery, and Zhu Zhishan passed away in dissatisfaction. Only Wen Zhengming was the oldest, lived the longest, was the latest to awaken, and had the highest achievements.
He doesn't have Tang Bohu's poetry and wine, great joy and sorrow, nor Zhu Zhishan's cynicism and wanton publicity, nor Xu Zhenqing's youthful frivolity and compelling poetic talent. He has achieved world-class success simply by relying on his diligence, concentration, perseverance, and perseverance. A remarkable achievement.
This is Wen Zhengming, who studied literature from Wu Kuan, painting from Shen Zhou, and calligraphy from Li Yingzhen. He had a noble character and worked hard. In the end, he was excellent in both poetry, calligraphy and painting, and was known as the "four unique all-rounders".
Huo Hongtu loves traditional painting, so he naturally knows a lot about the life and history of this master of the Ming Dynasty, but he has never actually seen Wen Zhengming's own paintings.
But Ye Xingyu has seen a lot, and is very familiar with Wen Zhengming's painting styles in various periods. He is at least 80% sure that this painting is a copy of Wen Zhengming's early painting studies.
