How difficult is it to identify "Shi Kefa's last works"?

Suzhou’s “Shi Kefa’s last work” has attracted widespread social attention. If Suzhou's "Shi Kefa's Last Works" is finally put on the appraisal stand, will it be difficult to authenticate? A cultural relics appraisal expert in Yangzhou said that in fact, the appraisal of "must haves" is far less difficult than people think.

The cultural relic appraisal expert who did not want to reveal his name said that under normal circumstances, appraisal mainly starts from the following four aspects. One is the author’s calligraphy style and level; second is the age of the paper; third is the Collection seal; fourth, mounting. Although the ink written by Shi Gongliu

is very rare, there is no shortage of historical records. "Shi Kefa won the Jinshi in the first year of Chongzhen (1628). In the ancient imperial examinations, his calligraphy skills can be seen from the gold medals in the ancient imperial examinations. "The Dictionary of Chinese Artists" records Shi Kefa, saying that his calligraphy is strict and befitting the person. "In addition, the stone carvings of Shi Gong's Jueming Book in the Shi Kefa Memorial Hall and the portrait of Shi Gong engraved by Shi Zhaolin, the seventh descendant of Shi Kefa in the Zhenjiang Museum, can be used for verification." Later, the reporter interviewed a calligraphy and painting appraisal expert in Yangzhou. He said that the so-called "authoritative appraisal" is only relative.

As for the identification of "Shi Kefa's last works", Yang Qiang, vice chairman of Suzhou Ruiyaxuan Culture Co., Ltd., told reporters yesterday, "I have reported the domestic situation to Wang Nong who is far away in Japan and to Zhongyi. Mr. Nori made an introduction. After hearing the news that the "Jubilee" was questioned, they took it very seriously and were preparing to leave in the near future. They were also joined by Takashi Sakai, the curator of the Sapporo Ceramic Art Museum, and others. Related matters of appraisal are being prepared." Wang Nong and Zhongzhong Yidian made it very clear that they will fully respect the opinions of Shi Kefa Memorial Hall in the appraisal of "Shi Kefa's last works", "because the historical materials of Shi Gong there are the most comprehensive"~< /p>
