Chapter 749 New archaeological discovery?
Mitsui Takashi and the two brothers watched the two warrior figurines stop talking. On the one hand, they were hit by such sudden ecstasy, and they really didn't know what to say.
On the other hand, it also lamented the wisdom of the ancient Chinese.
You should know that when these two pottery figurines were fired, it should have been more than two thousand years ago. At that time, Chinese people could have already burned such pottery figurines.
What about the Japanese at that time? It seems that there is no record of the Japanese history at that time. At that time, our ancestors seemed to have just lying down from a tree and walking upright with their feet not long.
Of course this was just the two of them's thoughts, but they didn't dare to say this to outsiders at all.
Noda Yahiko was much more professional than his two employers at this time. He squatted on the ground, holding a flashlight to start illuminating the two pottery figurines, looking at the facial expressions of the two pottery figurines and sculptures on their faces.
The two pottery figurines have round eyes and are as brave as warriors. They are all bearded and their beards are carefully carved. It can be seen that the craftsmen who made these two pottery figurines should have taken great care in the portrayal of these details.
Moreover, the buns of the two pottery figurines also have obvious characteristics of the Han Dynasty. If it weren't for his knowledge that these two pottery figurines were made by Mr. Jim, who made a fake, he might have been surrounded by them at this time and regarded these two fakes as genuine.
Because from the appearance of these two pottery figurines, no matter how they look, they are really no different from each other.
After seeing these two pottery figurines, he didn't say much, but came to the front of another box at the same height as this box, pried open the box, and then found seven or eight pottery figurines from the box.
The terracotta figurines taken out of this box this time are not as tall as the two warriors before, and most of them are ordinary terracotta figurines.
Some are kneeling women, some are dressed as servants, and some are terracotta figurines of boys. There are a total of more than a dozen, and although they are also very meticulous, in terms of energy and spirit, these terracotta figurines do not have the spirit of the two warriors in front of them.
Noda Yahiko seemed very unwilling to give up, so he pried open a box next to the box, and the things he took out of the box finally satisfied him.
It turned out that what I took out this time was actually two samurai servants riding horses. Because these two samurai servants had horses under them, they were much taller than the two samurai servants who were half a man taller.
If it is measured, it is even as high as 1.7 meters, reaching the height of an ordinary adult.
Moreover, the facial statues, the statues of the two horses, are exactly the same as the two samurai in front of them. They are both meticulous and meticulous, and even the hairs of the characters and horses are vivid. It can be seen that the craftsmen who burned these two samurai terracotta horses were also very attentive.
After seeing these two horse-riding samurai, Noda Yahiko really stood up and stretched his waist, but just as he stretched his waist, he realized that the two brothers Noda Yahiko were looking at him at this time.
He smiled slightly in his heart, then turned around and came to the two brothers. He was about to speak, but closed his mouth again, then looked up at Watanabe who was standing not far away.
The two Mitsui brothers also followed his gaze and looked at Junichi Watanabe. They saw that the guy was still struggling with the stack of check books at this time, and did not notice the movements on their side.
At this time, Yoshihiko Noda seemed to be relieved. He pulled the two brothers of Mitsui and whispered: "Gentlemen, we have a great fortune this time. The things here are definitely all Chinese national treasures. They must have been unearthed in the Han Dynasty tomb more than two thousand years ago. The most important thing is that the owner of the tomb must be quite impressive in his life, otherwise there would be no such things in his tomb."
Noda Yoshihiko's words made Mitsui Takayasu's eyebrows hop pound. The old guy had been pretending to be calm before. Although he also felt that the things in front of him should be antiques from the Han Dynasty, but without the expert Noda Yoshihiko, he had always been unsure of him.
At this time, Mitsui Mitsui's expression seemed a little solemn. When Mitsui Takaha saw it, he hurriedly asked him: "Miji, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"
"Well, I can't tell you, either. I just think these pottery figurines are a bit weird, but I can't tell you what's weird."
Although Mitsui Mitsui Mitsui has mediocre qualifications in antique appraisal, she has been a talented person who has been in the antique circle for decades. What's more, the Tokyo National Museum where he usually lives is treasured in it.
Although the fakes he saw now, Jin Muchen asked Sister Tao to find friends who made them specifically for her fake masters.
But in Mitsui Mitsuki's eyes, it still seems a little unnatural. But if you ask him to tell him what is wrong and what is unnatural, he can't tell him what is wrong.
At this time, Noda Yahiko, of course, could not let Mitsui Mitsui's fool ruin his good things.
Of course, considering the employment relationship between him and the two brothers Mitsui, he couldn't say too direct and stiff words at this time, so he denied Mitsui Mitsui Mitsui, so he turned around and asked Mitsui Mitsui Mitsui Mitsui.
"Guangliang, what do you think is wrong with this pottery figurine?"
"Well... how do you say it? I can't say it, but I've never heard of it before. The princes of the Han Dynasty also liked to use pottery figurines in their tombs, and they were painted pottery. Two years ago, our museum organized a special exchange with the Chinese Museum. At that time, I also visited China and saw a lot of collections in many Chinese museums, including these pottery figurines. Those pottery figurines, especially painted pottery, seemed to be from the Northern Wei Dynasty."
Mitsui Mitsura finally told him the question that he had been puzzled for a long time, but because he is too idiot in antique appraisal, he dare not say too sure.
After all, in front of Yoshihiko Noda, he dared not pretend to be an expert.
After hearing what he said, Noda Yahiko was happy, not only laughing on her face, but also feeling happy.
Mitsui Mitsui is still the same as before. She is just a fool and has no confidence in anything she does. If you judge something like this yourself, you would have long been able to determine that this thing is a fake.
But at this time, he could not say this to the two brothers Mitsui. Instead, he would fool these two brothers. This is the real thing!
"Guangliang, you haven't seen it, which does not mean that there were no such colored pottery figurines during the Han Dynasty! Well...oh! Then I'll tell you carefully. In fact, in ancient China, during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, when royal nobles died, they would have to be buried with living people. This custom continued until the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The earliest and largest group of living tombs discovered in China now was the tombs of the Song Dynasty king in the Spring and Autumn Period. He asked his twelve beloved concubines to go to hell with him. Because this method was too inhumane, it was gradually abolished in the late Warring States Period. Of course, it was not all abolished, but some royal relatives and nobles no longer used this method. For example, the famous Qin Shihuang specially used warrior pottery figurines as his burial objects. That is to say, from that time on, the Chinese had already started to use pottery figurines to be buried with them."
Although what Noda Yahiko said is all well-known historical scenes, the Mitsui and the other brothers still listened with relish. After all, the name of Noda Yahiko's treasure appraisal genius was not in vain.
Especially in Chinese antiques, they are Japan's leading experts, so no matter how he is, he still has a strong credibility and persuasiveness in antique appraisal.
"When it was the Han Dynasty, the first few emperors of the Han Dynasty were still very sympathetic. In order not to waste the people and lose money like Qin Shihuang, the energy of the burial figurines was no longer spent on the burial figurines. Even if some burial figurines were burned for burial, they would also burn some small-shaped figurines as much as possible. Therefore, the burial figurines from the Northern Wei Dynasty we later discovered were basically not large in size, and they were also inherited from the Han Dynasty. However, they were divided into the Han Dynasty pottery figurines and the Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines. The best ones were divided into the Han Dynasty pottery figurines and the Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines.
The method is to look at the hair accessories of these pottery figurines. The pottery figurines of the Han Dynasty and the pottery figurines of the Northern Wei Dynasty have obvious differences in hair accessories. Moreover, the royal families of the Han Dynasty generally liked to choose warrior figurines to be buried with them. First, the entire Han Dynasty was a martial dynasty, and they also hoped that these warrior figurines could be underground to protect their tombs from being disturbed by those ghosts and monsters. They also hoped that these warrior figurines could intimidate the tomb robbers who came to steal their tombs.
. The pottery figurines of the Northern Wei Dynasty were already the leading country in the north and there was no danger. Therefore, the high-ranking officials and nobles at that time preferred ladies' pottery figurines or servants' pottery figurines to be buried with them, which could ensure that they lived a good life with wives and concubines and servants underground. In addition, you said that the earliest pottery figurines you have seen were from the Northern Wei Dynasty, but don't forget that the Northern Wei Dynasty was actually not far from the Han Dynasty, and their
Many of the techniques and techniques of pottery craftsmen at that time were actually inherited from the craftsmen of the Han Dynasty. Besides, you have never seen the colored pottery figurines of the Han Dynasty, which is actually a good thing. Don’t you think this is a new archaeological discovery? They can make the appearance of the colored pottery figurines more than a hundred years ago..." (To be continued.) Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
