Chapter 318 This Painting Is a Parody of "The Funeral of Ornans"
write like an angel!
After spending 500 exchange points, Su Lin exchanged this skill. Immediately, a lot of knowledge and skills in the field of painting rushed towards his head frantically. It's like exchanging the "Aspect Martial Arts" skill at that time.
Su Lin not only has a painting level comparable to the world's top painters, but also has a clear understanding of various styles of painting, oil painting, Chinese painting, etc., their characteristics, development history and representative figures, how to appreciate them.
Once again, he looked at his grandmother Tang Huiqin's painting, and immediately, Su Lin's feeling was different. When I looked at it before, I only thought that this painting was not ordinary, it was very well drawn, and it was very expressive, but when I asked Su Lin to specifically explain what was good about this painting and what was the deep meaning, Su Lin said no. Come up with a reason. Even with the contents that Liu Yizhi and Qin Yanran suggested before, it is difficult for him, who has never paid attention to art works, to integrate it into his own appreciation.
But now, Su Lin only glanced at it, just like Liu Yizhi just now, realized the mood and experience of her grandmother Tang Huiqin when she painted this picture. A really good oil painting is to let the viewers feel the profound meaning and emotion of various changes. Just like Van Gogh's "Sunflowers", "Self-Portrait" and other works, the same is true. Through the distortion of oil paintings, the painter's feelings and outlook on life are analyzed.
"It turns out that the simple pictures in the painting can actually reveal such complex emotions..."
After really understanding the painting, Su Lin was also filled with emotion. This painting reveals my grandmother Tang Huiqin's attitude towards life and death, as well as her interpretation of the emotions and attitudes of many people in the world.
Thinking about it, Su Lin couldn't help but shout, "It's really a good painting!"
"Oh? Xiao Su, I didn't expect you to have an opinion on the appreciation of oil paintings. Why don't you talk about it? What are your thoughts? As the owner of this painting, Mr. Tang must also want to find someone who can understand this painting. The person who painted it gave it away..."
Yuan Hai, who had always been envious of Su Lin's being able to receive this painting, heard Su Lin's admiration, and he was unwilling to think in his heart: "I don't know where this stinky boy got his good luck, but it's a coincidence. It saved Tang Lao's life under the circumstances. This painting fell into his hands. It was literally buried! If he accidentally damaged this painting again, it would be a waste! In his hands, he may never see the light of day. If it is in my hands, not to mention the price of tens of millions, at least it can be sold for more than 5 million..."
Yuan Hai, who was envious and jealous, was making a small calculation in his heart. How to get this painting from Su Lin's hands. He saw that Su Lin was praising the painting as if he pretended to understand. I felt that Su Lin was pretending not to understand. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I wanted to ridicule Su Lin, and then I would think of a way to get this painting from Su Lin afterwards.
"Old Tang, if this painting is handed over to someone who doesn't know how to paint, wouldn't it be a secret investment from Mingzhu? I think the best way is to hand this painting to me, and I will hold an auction with this painting. Wouldn't it be better if you fetch a high price for this painting, and Xiao Su can also get a lot of money in return?"
After thinking about it, Yuan Hai said again. If you can scoop up this painting for auction at this time, you will definitely be able to get a lot of income. Rather than letting this painting humiliate in the hands of a poor boy who doesn't understand words at all, it's better to scoop it up for auction.
"I gave this painting to Su Lin. He can deal with it as he wants."
Tang Huiqin's attitude towards Yuan Hai was not very good at first, but this time she was even more disgusted with Yuan Hai. After all, artists are lofty, and they don't like the direct connection between their works and dirty money. In their eyes, art is priceless.
"Actually... this painting reminds me of another representative work of realism. These two paintings are similar in purpose..."
At this time, Su Lin knew that the collector named Yuan Hai must feel that he did not understand oil painting. What he meant in his words was nothing more than saying that he was a bastard who did not know anything about oil painting, and asked his grandmother Tang Huiqin not to give this painting to him. . Although the words are euphemistic, the contempt in those words is clearly revealed. Otherwise, grandma Tang Huiqin would not be so disgusted with him.
Merchants value profits, and so do collectors. From the first sight of Yuan Hai, Su Lin didn't have a good impression. When he was in the living room, he kept staring at the furnishings in the room, as if looking for any valuable paintings.
"Oh? Which realist painting is it? Xiao Su, why don't you tell me? But... the people on the scene are all oil painting masters. Brother Issushi has a book on the history of European oil painting, so don't take your word for it. Nonsense, hum... young people, they just like to be competitive, but they don't know how to pretend to understand, and it's very shameful to be exposed as a swollen face."
Yuan Hai, who was not welcome by Elder Tang from the moment he entered the door, held back his anger. In front of Mr. Tang, he naturally had to be a disciple and be taught humbly, but in front of Su Lin, he had no scruples, and he decided that a student like Su Lin who just graduated from high school could have any oil paintings on it. His attainment is probably the scale and half claw seen in the random art book, but he dares to scoop it out to show off.
As far as the content of the textbook is concerned, I am afraid that I will be exposed by myself without saying a few words. With a wicked smile on his face, Yuan Hai waited for Su Lin to speak, so as to refute his words and make him lose face in front of Tang Lao.
"Su Lin, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. Uncle Liu used to follow his grandma to study the history of European oil painting. You said this in front of them..."
Qin Yanran was also afraid of Su Lin's embarrassment, so she quickly pulled Su Lin's arm and reminded in a low voice. She knows Su Lin well, what is Su Lin's accomplishments in oil painting? In art class, whether it is a knowledge test or a work evaluation, he has never scored above the good.
"It's okay, Yanran, I just read some books recently, and I just have an introduction about this..."
However, Su Lin waved his hand, and instead said confidently to his grandmother Tang Huiqin, "Grandma, if I am not wrong. The style of your painting should be that of a well-known French oil painter who is well known for realism. Albert's masterpiece, "The Funeral of Ornans."
"Courbet? The oil painting "The Funeral of Ornans"? How is it similar to the one in front of me? Mr. Tang is a master in the domestic painting circle, and the world is full of peaches and plums. How could she copy other people's paintings? Su Lin, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense..."
Hearing Su Lin's words, Yuan Hai almost jumped up and accused Su Lin angrily, wanting to protect Tang Lao's reputation. However, before he could speak, he saw Tang Lao nodded and smiled in surprise:
"Oh? Su Lin, can you tell grandma, how did you see it? You didn't even see Yizhi just now. Where did you see it?"
"This painting? Did the teacher really draw "The Funeral of Ornans" by Mo Zhi?" After hearing his teacher's affirmation, Liu Yizhi quickly recalled this "Funeral of Ornans" in his mind. , After a few seconds, he came back to his senses, with such an expression as he expected, he nodded and said, "Indeed, indeed, little brother Su Lin is right."
"Ah? Really...really painted by Mo Chi's "The Funeral of Ornans"?"
Yuan Hai was also stupid. He thought that Su Lin was talking nonsense, but he didn't expect it to be true. This is something that even Liu Yizhi has not discovered!
"Su Lin, Su Lin, please tell me quickly, what is the same between this painting of my grandma and the painting "The Funeral of Ornans"? I have seen that painting, and it is my grandma's favorite. One of my paintings, when my grandma taught me realist oil painting, I used this painting as my representative work. I have seen that painting many times, and I was very impressed, but I didn’t think it was similar to my grandma’s. What's so similar about the painting? The style and paint are not the same..."
Qin Yanran originally thought that Su Lin was talking nonsense, but when she realized that Su Lin was right, she was also curious. She took a closer look at her grandmother's painting, recalled the "Funeral of Ornans" in her memory, and said I don't think there is any connection.
"Su Lin, you kid, it seems that you are still hiding a lot. You should talk about it. You are the first person who can talk about Western oil painting in front of my mother. Let Aunt Ping see your skills. ?"
Fang Liping, who had not spoken all the time, was also full of interest this time, and stared at Su Lin with a smile on her full chest.
"Actually, the origin of oil painting is tempera painting in Europe in the fifteenth century. Later, more pigments were added to gradually develop into a bright new star in the history of Western painting. Realist oil painting, after the French romanticism , to praise nature and describe the real life of ordinary people. Realistic painting refers to the art of expressing the reality of life. It describes the things that are in one's vision with a method that is faithful to the object, and reflects the essence of things through phenomena. .Realist painting is represented by the landscape painters of the "Barbizon School", represented by Corot, Millet, who is called "Peasant Painter", Courbet, who calls himself "Realist Painter", and some political satirists, especially It is represented by Daumier's creations..."
First, I talked about the origin of oil painting and realistic oil painting and the representative characters. Su Lin spoke like a senior professor who studied oil painting. All this knowledge has been integrated into his mind, and now even Tang Huiqin and her disciple Liu Yizhi, who are the most authoritative in the study of Western oil painting in China, may not be able to compare to Su Lin.
