What's the difference between cultural relics and antiques?
Cultural relics refer to valuable things left over from the past in the history of cultural development, which are historical and cultural relics left behind in society or buried underground. Cultural relics generally include: buildings, sites and relics with commemorative significance and historical value related to major historical events and important people; Ancient cultural sites, ancient tombs, ancient buildings, grottoes and stone carvings with historical, artistic and scientific values; Precious artworks and arts and crafts of different times; Revolutionary literature and ancient books of historical, artistic and scientific value; It can reflect the social system of each era and represent the physical objects of social production. For example: 1, revolutionary literature and ancient books with historical, artistic and scientific values. 2 buildings, sites and relics with commemorative significance and historical value related to major historical events, revolutionary movements and important people. 3 ancient cultural sites, ancient tombs, ancient buildings, grottoes, stone carvings, etc. It has historical, artistic and scientific value. 4. Precious artworks and handicrafts of all ages. 5. The representative objects that reflect the social system, social production and social life of each era. Antiques refer to outdated things and ancient artifacts that can be appreciated and studied, and can be used as a reference for understanding ancient culture. Antiques and antiques are not necessarily cultural relics. Bo Gu is also called "Gu Dong". The so-called "bone" is to preserve the essence of the past; The so-called "east" means knowing and understanding. The main boundary between cultural relics and antiques is that cultural relics are protected by the national cultural relics law and can be privately held, but private circulation and trading are prohibited. Antiques are the general name of precious antiquities, covering a wider range than cultural relics. From the comparison between cultural relics and antiques or antiques, cultural relics cover a longer time than antiques or antiques, because cultural relics can be ancient, modern or contemporary, and as long as they are excellent cultural products, they can be included in the category of cultural relics. Antiques and antiques are not. Modern and contemporary things cannot be called antiques and antiques. The coverage of ancient antiques is much larger than that of cultural relics, because only a few of them can be classified as cultural relics and must be valuable in the history of social and cultural development. In real life, when people know that you are engaged in the collection of cultural relics and works of art, they will think that you are tasteful and valuable. Therefore, collecting cultural relics and artworks is the most attractive, exciting and valuable. The promulgation of the new Law on the Protection of Cultural Relics will surely set off a new upsurge in the collection of cultural relics and artworks. In recent years, folk collections are in the ascendant. Not long ago, the 30th meeting of the 9th the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) voted to adopt a decision on amending the Law on the Protection of Cultural Relics in People's Republic of China (PRC). The new law stipulates that citizens only need to inherit and give through legal channels (that is; Cultural relics store purchase; Purchase from auction enterprises operating cultural relics auctions; Cultural relics legally owned by individual citizens are exchanged or transferred according to law; Cultural relics obtained by other forms of cooperation prescribed by the state may be traded and circulated according to law. This regulation broke the monopoly of state-owned cultural relics shops. In fact, in the 1990s, folk cultural relics exchanges were also very active, including many antique cities with a certain scale built in various places, and many antique dealers were also doing cultural relics transactions. Therefore, this new law is actually a legal recognition that has long been reasonable and realistic. Due to the prohibition of the sale and circulation of private cultural relics, more and more people are involved in the cultural relics market. Some people don't know how to distinguish cultural relics, antiques and antiques. The author believes that "cultural relics" refer to historical relics that are valuable for studying social politics, economy and culture, and are precious historical and cultural heritages of mankind, such as buildings, inscriptions and various works of art. Cultural relics can be divided into precious cultural relics and general cultural relics, and precious cultural relics can be divided into first-class cultural relics, second-class cultural relics and third-class cultural relics. 1987, the Ministry of Culture issued a special notice to define and stipulate the first, second and third-class cultural relics standards. The word "cultural relics" first appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which is the general name of the legal system of rites and music. In the Tang Dynasty, its meaning was close to today's meaning. In terms of time, cultural relics are ancient, modern and contemporary. It covers all historical periods. However, there are certain levels of cultural relics, even ancient cultural relics that have been handed down to this day, and not all of them can become historical cultural relics. Love collecting, but don't involve illegal things. Learning the law of cultural relics protection is good for your collection! Nowadays, the antique markets in large, medium and small cities are rising one by one, and folk treasures are also flocking, especially online collection forums. The focus of the debate is mainly on the authenticity of antiques, and no one can convince who is a master like a cloud. The seemingly lively scene hides something unknown behind it. Anyway, at least it is a prosperous time, and only a prosperous time will have such a lively scene. However, if you are involved in collection, do you know anything about cultural relics law? What do you know about antiques? Article 2 of the first chapter of the Law on the Protection of Cultural Relics stipulates: "In the territory of People's Republic of China (PRC), the following cultural relics are protected by the state: (1) sites of ancient culture, ancient tombs, ancient buildings, cave temples, stone carvings and murals of historical, artistic and scientific value; (2) Important historical sites, objects and representative buildings related to major historical events, revolutionary movements or famous figures in modern times, which have important commemorative significance, educational significance or historical value; (3) Precious artworks and arts and crafts in different periods in history; (four) important documents in different historical periods, manuscripts and books with historical, artistic and scientific value. ; (five) representative objects reflecting the social systems, social production and social life of various times and ethnic groups in history. The standards and measures for cultural relics appraisal shall be formulated by the administrative department of cultural relics of the State Council and submitted to the State Council for approval. Fossils of ancient vertebrates and ancient humans with scientific value are protected by the state as cultural relics. "Do you have any cultural relics related to the above? If so, what should you do? Only one is given to the state, and individuals have no right to collect cultural relics. Unless you can prove that your cultural relics were inherited orderly before liberation, or you can take out what the national cultural relics store sold you, it is illegal. If you give your collection to the state and the state doesn't accept it, it means that your thing is not a cultural relic, then what is it? I think it is an antique. The essence of distinguishing cultural relics from antiques is that one is archaeological identification and orderly inheritance; The uncertainty of antiques determines that they can only be sought after by collectors in this big family of folk. Speaking of which, you should understand the difference between antiques and cultural relics, right? Cultural relics are dead, antiques are alive. This is the uncertainty of the antique itself, which makes it hazy and puzzled. As a result, many big collectors, antique artists and a group of so-called experts have been created. The author thinks that playing with antiques can't be true, and it is the key to highlight an attitude of playing with character. Once you set foot in antiques, you'd better convince yourself that you can't trust anyone. Of course, the opinions of experts can only be used as reference, and everyone can communicate with each other and study together. To put it bluntly, cultural relics and antiques are the same thing. One is that children with hukou and children without hukou are naturally treated differently. Many people always want their collections to be recognized by the world. In fact, is it not to fight for the treatment of "cultural relics"? I don't think it's necessary. Since there are antiques in the world, let's be antiques. Why bother with truth and falsehood? Antiques are not true or false, only the level of art, don't argue about true or false. What is true is cultural relics, and what is not true is antiques. State-owned antiques are the darling of the people. As for those who want to play with antiques, as long as you don't take it seriously, you can enjoy it. People who don't touch the fun there naturally don't know. So antiques are naturally more fun than cultural relics. The author emphasizes once again that antiques are not true or false. If you like them, they are real; If you don't like them, they are fake. Since ancient times, antiques and literati have combined to deduce many touching stories, which invisibly reveal hazy elegance. The owner of the antique was gradually reduced to a status symbol by later generations! This is the market value of antiques. If you like them, you will be willing to pay a high price for them. If you don't like them, you don't want them for free. Antiques are not priced, and the market price is a transaction between the two parties. Don't treat antiques as mysteries, and don't listen to the comments given by experts. Playing what you like is the last word!
