The evening of June 26, 1923. A conflagration destroys the Palace of Established Happiness in Beijing's Forbidden City. Every single painting and piece of calligraphy in the Qianlong Emperor's collection is consumed in the fiery blaze.

Was the fire man-made?
Had the paintings and calligraphy already gone missing before the fire started?

These two questions remain unsolved mysteries to this day.
Author extensive research over many years has unearthed a number of authentic antique Chinese handscroll paintings and calligraphy that still survive. Each of these artistic treasures are between roughly five to more than 50 meters long.
The fact that each scroll bears the seal marks of dozens and, in some cases, over one hundred collectors and connoisseurs is, of course, the most compelling evidence of these scrolls’ traceable provenance. This book delves into one of these works: the Yan Zhenqing handscroll calligraphy.

To help readers appreciate the Yan Zhenqing calligraphy, the author has employed a simple ten-question format that offers an insight into essential identification methods.

一九二三年六月廿六日晚上。一場大火燒毀了北京紫禁城內的《建福宮》。乾隆皇帝所藏的書畫都全部付諸一炬。

這場大火是否人為?
書畫是否在大火前已經失蹤?

這二個問題至今仍然是未解之謎。

作者多年來深入研究發現了不少中國古代長卷書畫真蹟仍然存於世上。
這些藝術瑰寶每卷分別長達約五公尺至五十多公尺。
每卷都鈐有數十個至百多個收藏者及鑒賞者的印鑑，這顯然就是流傳有緒的最關鍵的証據。
本書介紹這「顏真卿」書法長卷就是其中之一。

為了讓讀者能夠欣賞到「顏真卿」書法真蹟的同時，作者也用了簡易的十個答問方式，讓讀者了解到一些重要的鑒定方法。

1923年6月26日の夜、北京の紫禁城にあった“建福宮”が大火によって焼失し、乾隆帝のコレクションの書画はすべて灰燼に帰した。

この大火は、放火によるものなのか。
書画は大火の前に、すでになくなっていたのか。

この2つの謎は、今なお解けていない。
私は長年にわたり研究を深め、中国古代の巻子本の書画の真蹟がなお多数実存することを突きとめてきた。
こうした珍貴な芸術作品は、1巻あたり長さ五メートルから五十メートル程度のものまであった。
各巻には数十から100以上のコレクターや鑑賞者の印が捺されてあり、これらはもちろんその来歴を示す最も重要な証拠となった。
本書では、そうした未知の作品から、“顏真卿”の書になる作品を紹介する。

読者が“顏真卿”の書を鑑賞し楽しめるように、簡単な10のQ＆A方式で、重要な鑑定方法を紹介する。
