明代江南民间艺术收藏中的赝品探析

A Study of The Fakes in Folk Art Collection over The South Region of The Changjiang River in The Ming Dynasty

明代,江南地区的收藏活动日益普遍。随着奢靡玩赏之风的盛行,江南社会对艺术品的需求量不断增大,藏品价格亦不断攀升。在利润与市场双重因素刺激下,赝品得以崭露头角并大行其道。明代江南手工艺的进步更为赝品制造创造了技术条件。由于赝品大量充斥于藏品市场,鉴古活动相应兴起。然而,因缺乏理性引导及必要的知识储备,藏品辨赝大多蹈入"重名轻实"的歧途,反为赝品的流行打开方便之门。

The popularity of collecting antiques for pleasure and appreciation across the southern areas of the Changjiang river in the Ming dynasty led to rising price and demand for artwork. What’s more, an increasing quantity of fakes which were made with advanced craftsmanship took advantage to flood into the market, which accordingly brought about identification of antiques anywhere. Unfortunately, there was an overflow of fakes available as the result of less rational instruction or specialized knowledge, preferring appearance to properties of the artworks.
