This is the fourth volume of the Qianlong Grand Reading Map painted by Lang Shining for Qianlong, which was sold for more than 20 million euros at auction, setting a record for the French auction。Nowadays, more and more people like to collect all kinds of cultural relics. Calligraphy and painting are also one of the most popular categories.

Because the value of calligraphy and painting is influenced by history and culture. This painting is the image of Qianlong at the time of the military parade. The painting was made during the Qianlong period.

The author's name is Lang Shining. He painted for three generations of emperors in the Qing Dynasty. Actually, it's a native of Milan, Italy.

Originally, he was a missionary who came to China to preach during the Kangxi period. But Kangxi didn't like foreigners, so many foreigners who came to preach died, and only two survived, one of whom was Lang Shining. And he is particularly good at painting.

Kangxi liked his paintings, so he let him stay in the palace and paint for himself.

When Lang Shining was in China, he painted many famous pictures, such as the picture of Zhiping written by the heart. And we say that this painting, Qianlong Dayue was painted during the more than 20 years of Qianlong。There are four parts.

This painting is the fourth part. It depicts the scene when Qianlong was at war with the Western Regions. The painting was also created to show the enemy how powerful the Qing army was, hoping to intimidate them.

Therefore, Qianlong in the painting is heroic and majestic, and his facial features, hands and feet are painted very carefully. It combines foreign painting techniques with Chinese painting techniques. It highlights the strength of the Qing army.

It gives a very strong impact and is a masterpiece.

After the painting was completed, it remained in the Old Summer Palace, and later due to the war, only the second part was kept in the Palace Museum, and the third and fourth parts were in private hands。And it was this fourth part that set a record in auction history. From here we can see that one part of these paintings has already set such a high record, and if it is a complete four, how much is it worth?

This painting is the fourth volume of "The Traveling Array" in the "Qianlong Great Reading Map", and the final sale of this painting is 22.05 million euros, equivalent to more than 200 million yuan. The painting also set a record, setting a new auction record for an Asian art at auction in France.

This painting is the fourth volume of "Qianlong Dayue Map", the author of this painting is called Lang Shining, he is a court painter in the Qing Dynasty Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong three dynasties. It has set a new auction record for Asian art in France.

The foreigner who painted her portrait was named Lang Shining, who came to China as a missionary and was later admitted to the palace as a court painter, and he himself had been painting in China for more than 50 years.

A record was set for this painting, which set a new record for an Asian art at auction in France. The author of this painting is called Lang Shining, who was a court painter during the Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong dynasties of the Qing Dynasty.

The record for this painting set a Guinness World Record because it was the one that cost the most money of all the paintings taken at the time.

The dragon is a creature in existence and legend, although there is no entity, but the emperors of the past dynasties are very revered for the dragon, the painters are also painstaking in painting the dragon, to say that the dragon, the story of "the finishing touch" is a household name, according to legend, Zhang Seng Miao painted a dragon in Jinling Anle Temple, but did not paint the eyes.

The monk asked him why he didn't paint his eyes, Zhang Seng Miao said, "Point it and fly away", people thought he was joking, so he added eyes to the dragon, and the dragon rushed out of the wall and flew away, but Zhang Seng Miao was not the first person to paint the dragon, to say that the first person to paint the dragon was the Southern Song Dynasty painter Chen Rong.

Although the two Song Dynasty periods were constantly in turmoil, but in the troubled times, literati and scholars came out in large numbers, they pinned their emotions in their works, Chen Rong is also one of them, Chen Rong in the Southern Song Dynasty Duanping two years (1235) in the Jinshi, served as the national Fujian Putian Taishou, served as the national eunuch, the official to the Chaosan doctor.

However, what he is best at is to be good at painting dragons, he is half-drunk and half-awake, the dragon painted is the most changeable, "Six Dragons" is a masterpiece in the painting of dragons, he painted "Soweng Dragon" is a model of dragon painting in later generations, the painters of the Ming and Qing dynasties have taken him as the original.

During the war between the two Song Dynasty, "Six Dragons" was lost among the people, there has been no relevant record, "Six Dragons" began to appear in the Qianlong period, it is an important painting in the imperial study, Qianlong had an excellent evaluation of "Six Dragons", saying that "Six Dragons" was the pinnacle of dragon painting in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Chen Rong not only painted dragons, he was also good at painting pine, bamboo, cranes, and even painted tigers, so there are "so Weng Dragon", "so Weng Crane" and "so Weng bamboo" said, it can be seen that Chen Rong's painting skills are quite exquisite, after Qianlong got the "Six Dragons", it was circulated and collected in the royal family, and finally went to Prince Gong's mansion.

The last prince of Prince Gong's Mansion was Aixin Jueluo Pu Wei, Pu Wei was the great-grandson of Emperor Daoguang, he believed that he had the qualifications to inherit the unification, but in the end the throne still fell to Pu Yi, in 1912, Pu Yi abdicated, he was very unwilling, and even said: "With me, the Qing Dynasty will not die."

In order to help Pu Yi restore the country, he sold a large number of antique calligraphy and paintings from Prince Gong's mansion, one of which was quite precious and sold to the Japanese antique dealer Yamanaka Jojiro, who in turn sold this part of the Chinese cultural relics to the Fujita Museum of Art, including the "Six Dragons".

However, in recent years, due to the shortage of funds and poor management of the Fujita Art Museum, in order to continue its development, the Fujita Museum of Art has entrusted many Chinese cultural relics to Christie's auction house in New York, including "Six Dragons".

Not to mention that he is a cultural relic of the Southern Song Dynasty, the six dragons on the painting alone are enough to cause a sensation, and finally the "Six Dragons" fell under the hammer at a sky-high price of 43.5 million US dollars (about 300 million yuan).

With this money, he later started some small businesses, and the business was very successful, so that the family is now living a very happy life.

Later, Qianlong's ancient painting has risen to tens of millions, and I really envy this person's investment vision and treasure appreciation level.

After 8 years, it was developed, because the price of that painting increased a lot, and it could be sold for a very high price.

There is no exact record in the historical materials to indicate which painting and calligraphy Qianlong admired, but according to the imperial poems, it can be understood that from the first to the eighth day of the first month, Qianlong had a total of nine paintings and calligraphy, the first of which was Wen Zhengming's "Songtang Yin Appreciation Small Axis" in the Ming Dynasty. The last sentence of Qianlong's inscription poem is "to find solitude in the midst of it, not to be a guest", and he seems to want to stay behind closed doors in the small world composed of barren grass, ancient houses, old pines, and tea.

"The Female Historian" is a silk painting created by Gu Kaizhi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty of China. The original work has been lost, there are copies of the Tang Dynasty, the original 12 paragraphs, because of the age, only 9 paragraphs remain, for the silk color book, now in the British Museum. It was originally collected by the Qing Palace, and it was the desk favorite of Emperor Qianlong, hidden in the Old Summer Palace.

In 1860, when the British and French invaded Beijing, British Captain Ji Yong obtained it from China and took it abroad. In 1903, it was collected by the British Museum for 25 pounds, becoming the most important oriental cultural relics in the museum, and it is not an exaggeration to call it "the treasure of the museum". However, the scroll is only on display for two months a year.

The other pair is copied by the Song people, which is collected by the Palace Museum in Beijing, and the brushwork and color are not of the highest quality.

This Chinese art "Female History Portrait" is the earliest surviving Chinese silk painting, one of the earliest professional painters in China that can still be seen, and has a milestone in the history of Chinese art, and has always been a treasure collected by the imperial court of all dynasties.
