Life as a police officer in America

Chapter 752 Inhalation Sense

For an appraiser, how to identify whether a painting is good or bad, authentic or fake, is what the appraiser should do.

It was easy for Chen Youlu to say, but he couldn't do it if he really wanted to.

Canvas and drawing paper are only necessary tools in the hands of painters, just like painting tools such as paints and brushes.

No matter how to identify it, it can only identify the quality of the canvas.

What is used to detect the canvas?
That requires some technical support.

Just like identifying a painting, sometimes microscopic examination, ultraviolet reflectance imaging, infrared scanning, radiocarbon dating and other methods are used, and these detection methods are sometimes aimed at the canvas.

For example, use the C14 concentration test.

Carbon dating knows how long natural organic matter has existed.

Carbon dating the canvas, paper or other related items of a painting can give experts an idea of ​​how long ago it was made.

With such a time difference, it can be identified whether a famous painting is original or counterfeit.

But the purpose of such detection is to set for the authenticity of the oil painting.

Chen Youlu's idea now is to identify whether the canvas or drawing paper is real.

Such a formulation makes people puzzled, and it is suspected of seeking fish from a tree.

Mr. Liu: "I heard that right, Old Chen."

"That's right, I was confused by what I said. It's the first time I've been appraising paintings for decades, and it's the first time I said that the canvas of a painting is authentic."

Chen Youlu touched a corner of the oil painting with his fingers, smelled it, and looked at it carefully with a magnifying glass.

"It looks like real rhinestones, not fake rhinestones, but it seems neither real nor fake"

Wang Dengming was confused, what is a rhinestone.

Chen Youlu was so engrossed that Wang Dengming couldn't interrupt him.

"Sergeant Wang, the testing equipment I brought is limited, and I can't do anything about it. If it is allowed, I can only take the painting away and find a special testing agency for testing. This is the only way at present."

Chen Youming finally said.

"If we leave the question of the canvas aside, from this painting alone, do you think it is a fake or the real thing?"

Chen Youlu said decisively: "The real product, this is not a pirated product, I can guarantee it."

Mr. Liu said: "Old Chen, how much is this painting worth in terms of artistic value?"

"It's hard to say. The content of this painting is unpredictable, but the artist's level is no less than that of a master. As for the market value, I dare not jump to conclusions. I still need to find a few more peers for reference."

"Mr. Chen, this painting is the key evidence in the series of cases. How much it is worth is something to be discussed later. The information you provided me is very important. This painting is original and may be more than a hundred years old, is that true?"

"Be bolder, it may be more than a hundred years, this painting gives people a kind, a kind, a kind... What kind of words should I use to describe it, Sergeant Wang, I thought of it, four words, mysterious and evil."

Mr. Liu smiled and said, "This painting is inherently mysterious, so it can't be called evil."

"Don't you have a feeling of being sucked into the painting?"

Mr. Liu said: "It seems to have this kind of feeling, the feeling of inhalation, do you have such a feeling, Sergeant Wang?"

Wang Dengming shook his head, "No, I think the eyes of the Nine-Tailed Fox are very attractive."

Chen Youlu smiled and said, "It's just a matter of personal perspective. My opinion is that if you can find other paintings by this artist, you may have a better understanding of this painting."

Wang Dengming was puzzled.

"Sergeant Wang, the information this painting brings to people is too messy. I don't know what the artist wants to express. It's like a comic book. You need to read it from beginning to end to know the story expressed in the book. This painting is for me. In a sense, it is like a serial book, one of the pages has been torn out, and this painting is like the torn picture page."

"You mean, this painting is not a single sheet, but a series?"

"It's just a guess, I can't be sure, otherwise I can't explain why this painting gives people a messy and nonsensical feeling."

Wang Dengming thought for a while and asked, "Mr. Liu, what do you mean?"

"You still listen to Mr. Chen, he is an expert in this field, a big expert who has no water at all."

"Understood, thank you, thank you both."

Chen Youlu took a photo of the oil painting and left his contact information. He said that he would find a more experienced appraiser to help him appraise it. If you have any questions, you can contact him at any time.

After seeing off Mr. Liu and Chen Youlu, Wang Dengming stood in front of the oil painting, pointed at the nine-tailed fox and said, "Who are you?"

Immediately, he pointed at the hot girl again: "Who are you?"

"Who are you guys?"

Sensi walked into the case discussion room and said, "When a person likes to talk to himself, a lot of problems arise."

"It's just in time, please feel it carefully with your heart, does this painting have a sense of inhalation?"

"I do not understand what you say."

"I don't even know what I'm talking about. What the hell, what is the inhalation feeling, being sucked into the picture? Hell."

Sensi pointed behind the flowers: "What did the professor you invited say?"

"No problem, ambiguous, there are people in the flowers and no one in the flowers reflect the fullness of the content of the painting, just like what Master Qin said, it is not for reference, but the painting teacher said that the painting is more than 100 years old Year, do you believe it?"

"Do you believe in such nonsense? This painting was painted by the painter Hora KaLS in the old castle. How could it exceed 100 years?"

When Sensi said this, Wang Dengming called the painter Zunon Bai Dewei.

"Hi, Mr. Zunon Birdwell, sorry to bother you again, I have a question"

Wang Dengming wanted to confirm one thing, whether this strange painting was painted by Hora KaLS on the spot in the castle, and the reply he got was that the painting was painted by Hora KaLS at home and sent to the castle.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Dengming said, "This is a suspicious point. Did he draw this painting at home?"

"He has relatives."

"His only relative, his wife, is dead, you know."

"I've forgotten about it."

"If this painting is not painted by himself, but someone else's, the question is, what did he send the painting to the castle? To make money? Zunon Bai Dewei said that he only painted this painting, and the others There are not only one painting by the painter, but many paintings."

"Is he related to the Castle case?"

"God knows."

Sensi looked at the painting and said, "What does this painting want to tell us?"

"It tells us that the two beauties above are beauties."

"What's the matter with this man?"

"It seems that we still have to find a master to crack it."

Frederick Academy of Fine Arts, four o'clock in the afternoon.

Office of Professor Tolu Lewis.

"Professor Toru Lewis, hello, I apologize for disturbing you."

Professor Toru Lewis, a cheerful man with a rosy face and a beautiful long beard, had heard that the police were looking for him, but he did not know what had happened.

As the dean of this not-so-famous Academy of Fine Arts, it is extremely rare for the police to find him.

"Officer Wang, is there anything I can do for you? We don't seem to have met each other."

"Again, please forgive me."

Dean Toru was teaching students.

After Wang Dengming came to the Academy of Fine Arts, he didn't know who to turn to, so he just turned to the dean.

"It's okay, you said you came from Frossmosnow?"

"Yes."

"I've heard of that town. It's a sad, sad town. Why did you drive two hundred kilometers here?"

Sensi holds the oil painting in his hand.

"Professor, for nothing else, please make an appraisal."
