一、品相问题

1、 Quality issue

品相是指字画的“相貌”状况，这些都是影响字画价值的重要因素。如果购买古旧字画，更应注意品相问题。

Quality refers to the "appearance" of calligraphy and painting, which are important factors affecting the value of calligraphy and painting. If purchasing antique calligraphy and painting, one should pay more attention to the issue of appearance.

二、问题

2、 Price issue

名人字画的定价不受物价部门的约束，字画市场漫天要价的现象非常普遍，所以在购买名家字画时，要了解行情，或请内行把关，以免上当。

The pricing of celebrity calligraphy and painting is not constrained by the national price department, and the phenomenon of overcharging in the calligraphy and painting market is very common. Therefore, when purchasing famous calligraphy and painting, the first thing to do is to understand the market situation or ask experts to check to avoid being deceived.

三、真假问题

3、 The issue of authenticity

名人字画市场赝品泛滥，购买名家字画时，应请行家掌眼，以防买来假货。稳妥的办法是直接从字画家手中购求，或从有信誉的画廊处购买。

The celebrity calligraphy and painting market is flooded with counterfeits. When purchasing famous calligraphy and paintings, one should ask experts to keep an eye on them to prevent buying counterfeit goods. The safest way is to purchase directly from a calligrapher or from a reputable gallery.

四、水平问题

4、 Horizontal issues

名人字画艺术水平的高低是衡量其收藏价值的基本因素，名家之作也未必幅幅都是精品，如应酬之作、败笔之作便无法体现其应有的艺术水平，因而与精品的价值也大相径庭。

The level of artistic proficiency in celebrity calligraphy and painting is a fundamental factor in measuring their collection value. Even the works of famous artists may not necessarily be all exquisite in size. For example, social works and failed works cannot reflect their expected artistic level, and therefore their value is vastly different from that of exquisite works.

五、尺幅问题

5、 Scale issue

名家字画的销售有的以幅为计价单位幅是指常规幅面，即不小于4尺3开者，有的则以平方尺为计价单位。所以同一位名家的作品，幅面越大，其价值越高。如幅面小于4尺3开的小品，其价值就不能与常规幅面的字画相提并论。

Some sales of famous calligraphy and painting are priced in square feet, while others are priced in square feet. So the larger the size of a work by the same famous artist, the higher its value. If the size of a sketch is less than 4 feet and 3 inches, its value cannot be compared to that of a regular size of calligraphy and painting.

六、代表作问题

6、 Representative work issues

所谓代表作主要是指字画家擅长项目，如齐白石画虾蟹、徐悲鸿画马、黄胄画驴、李可染画山水或牛等。对字家而言，有的以草字见长、有的以篆字见长，如果字画家的作品不是其擅长的项目，其价值即逊一筹。

The so-called representative works mainly refer to the projects that calligraphy painters are good at, such as Qi Baishi painting shrimp and crabs, Xu Beihong painting horses, Huang Zhou painting donkeys, Li Keran painting landscapes or cows, etc. For calligraphers, some excel in cursive script and others excel in seal script. If the works of calligraphers are not their specialty, their value is inferior.

七、裱工问题

7、 Mounted worker issues

裱工是指字画裱件的装裱质量。有的字画裱件做工粗糙，或不平展，或残脱，或有折痕，或受湿受污等等。这些情况不但影响悬挂和欣赏，而且危及字画的寿命，也削弱了字画应有的价值。

Mounter refers to the quality of mounting calligraphy and painting frames. Some calligraphy and painting frames have rough workmanship, some are not flat, some are missing, some have creases, or are contaminated by moisture, and so on. These situations not only affect the hanging and appreciation, but also endanger the lifespan of calligraphy and painting, and weaken the value that calligraphy and painting should have.
