"Tony, this realistic landscape painting looks good. The snow scene in the Alps painted on it is beautiful and very suitable for the scene. Today is just a day when snowflakes dance.

Is this realist oil painting the work of who artist? What is the specific value? If the price is right, I intend to accept this painting as a commemoration of this trip to Turin! "

Ye Tian pointed his finger at a realistic landscape painting hanging on the display wall and said, his face always filled with a bright smile.

At this time, more than forty minutes have passed since they arrived at Piazza San Carlo, and they were in a gallery on the edge of the square, enjoying the many artworks displayed here.

Before that, they had visited several antique shops and galleries one after another, but found nothing, everyone's hands were still empty, there was no antique art.

Of course, this is only a superficial phenomenon.

When visiting those antique shops and galleries, Ye Tian also found a few omissions, but the value of those antique works of art is not worth letting him do it himself.

Those who buy those antique artworks will be Bowie, who will arrive in Turin tomorrow afternoon.

By then, the joint exploration team had already left Turin, crossed the Alps, and entered the territory of France. No one would doubt Bowie's identity.

At this moment, the realistic landscape painting that Ye Tian was referring to is a beautiful snow scene, which fits well with the weather outside with flying snowflakes.

In this landscape painting, crystal clear snow flies all over the sky and keeps falling from the sky, rendering the whole world white, just like a world in a fairy tale.

Through the snowflakes flying in the sky, you can see that the snow-capped Alps stands in the distance of the picture, tall, majestic, and a bit holy.

On the ground near the scene, it is a city that combines ancient and modern, full of colorful and beautiful buildings, including high towers, churches, squares, and buildings of different styles!

Without exception, the roofs of all buildings in the city have been covered by snow, and the whole city is white, as if put on a wedding dress.

At the bottom of the picture, a few passers-by walking on the street are hurriedly rushing, but in an adjacent square, there are a few children who are not afraid of the cold and chasing and playing in the snow!

From the outline of the Alps in the painting and the architectural pattern of the city, you can see at a glance that the landscape depicted in this realistic oil painting is exactly Turin in winter.

Moreover, the painter's perspective when he was painting happened to look north from Piazza San Carlo.

It is conceivable that one day before this, this realist landscape painter was sitting somewhere in Piazza San Carlo, admiring the picturesque scenery while using his own paintbrush to depict the winter in Turin.

Through the scenery shown in the paintings, everyone can even guess and quickly find where the painter was sitting.

Hearing Ye Tian's inquiry, the gallery owner named Tony immediately responded, without hesitation.

"Steven, this realist landscape painting depicting the beautiful winter scenery of Turin is by a well-known young Italian painter who lived in Turin for five or six years.

This painting was created in that period. The scenery on the painting is really beautiful. The price is 18,500 euros. If you can accept it, you can take this painting away! "

After giving the quotation, the gallery owner immediately stared at Ye Tian, ​​looking forward to it.

He had a very thorough understanding of this realistic landscape painting, because he personally received it from the agent of the young Italian painter and hung it on the display wall!

This oil painting does not have any hidden secrets, and it can never be the work of a top art master. There is no possibility of being picked up by others!

Ye Tian turned to look at the gallery owner, then smiled and nodded and said:

"18,500 euros. Although the price is a bit high, it is not too outrageous. I like this beautiful and charming Alpine snow scene. Compared with it, the price is not important!

Tony, I want this realistic landscape painting. I plan to bring it back to New York and hang it in the company, so that everyone can enjoy the picturesque Alpine scenery while working! "

Hearing this, Tony's eyes flashed with ecstasy.

"Deal, Steven, this realistic landscape painting belongs to you. You can take it back to New York to decorate your company's office space"

With that, Tony stretched out his right hand, ready to shake hands with Ye Tian to conclude this artwork deal.

However, Ye Tian did not shake hands with him, but raised his hand to another painting hanging not far away, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, Tony, I am interested in more than one of your paintings in this gallery. I am also interested in the Baroque style oil painting next to it. I want to know more about it.

Is that painting the work of that artist? When was it created? What is the specific value? If the price is right, I also intend to accept the painting and take it back to enjoy it slowly."

Tonillo retracted his right hand in some embarrassment, then turned his head to look at the Baroque painting hanging on the display wall, his eyes full of doubt and curiosity.

He did not respond immediately, but carefully looked at the oil painting suspiciously, then at Ye Tian, ​​and then fell into contemplation.

Ye Tian was not surprised by his reaction, nor did he urge him. He just stood aside with a smile, without seeing any abnormalities in his facial expressions.

As for David and the others, they are all admiring the Baroque oil painting and secretly guessing Ye Tian's true intentions.

The painting hanging on the display wall is also a landscape oil painting. The painting shows the countryside at dusk. Judging from the architectural style, it should be the countryside in the Nordic region.

Compared with the previous realistic landscape painting, this Baroque landscape painting has a much darker tone, and the whole world in the painting seems to be shrouded in a black mist.

Looking at this painting, everyone's mood will instantly become heavy, and everyone can feel the sadness and even despair in the painting.

But it is undeniable that the painter who created this painting has very clever painting skills, almost impeccable picture structure and layout, and is obviously a work of art above the standard!

The only problem with this painting is the feeling of sadness and despair on the paper, which makes people feel very bad. Perhaps this is the main reason why no one cares about it!

It took a long while before Tony came to his senses, then turned his head and looked at Ye Tian and said:

"Steven, I don't know whether this baroque oil painting is the work of that artist. On this painting, I did not find the author's signature or mark the creation time.

After receiving this oil painting, a few friends and I also did some research. It is basically certain that this baroque-style landscape oil painting should be created from the end of the 17th century to the beginning of the 18th century.

As for the artist who created this oil painting, we still haven't found the answer. Judging from the painting technique and artistic style, this painting is a bit like Rembrandt's work, but it is specious!

Compared with Rembrandt's paintings, the tone of this landscape painting is darker. Unlike Rembrandt, it uses bright and dark light to make people feel stable and solemn.

This painting is not the case. It gives people a feeling of sadness and even despair, so I judge this is not Rembrandt's work, but it is undeniable that the painter's painting skills are very good.

Let’s talk about the price. Although there is no author’s signature and the style of painting is unflattering, because of its long history and brilliant painting techniques, I offer a price of 60,000 Euros. I wonder if you can accept it! "

"Papa Papa"

Ye Tian did not immediately respond, but gently clapped his hands.

After the applause fell, he smiled and said:

"Very exciting! Tony, it seems that you have studied this baroque landscape oil painting very much. You are indeed an expert in art appraisal. What you see is exactly what this painting shows.

Although the style of this painting is unpleasant and it has a sense of despair, out of curiosity, I still plan to accept this Baroque painting and take it back to study it! "

With that, Ye Tian already stretched out his right hand.

"Deal! Tony, plus the previous realist landscape painting, the two paintings total 78,500 euros. Check or bank transfer, whatever you choose, I can do it!"

Looking at the gallery owner Tony again, he was stunned for a moment, and then a ecstatic smile appeared on his face.

"The deal, Steven, congratulations, I got two very good works of art. If you can, it's better to bank transfer, which is faster."

Tony said excitedly, and immediately shook hands with Ye Tian to conclude the art deal, lest he might regret it.

While shaking hands, Ye Tian also smiled and nodded and said:

"No problem, Tony, then bank transfer, but you have to provide two waterproof picture bags and issue a certification document so that I can bring these two artworks through customs and bring them back to New York smoothly."

"Okay, Steven, that's what I should do, no problem"

Tony nodded in response ~www.novelhall.com~ The proposal would be rejected there.

After the deal is concluded, the next thing is very simple.

Ye Tianxian stepped forward, took the two paintings from the display wall, handed them to David and Jason respectively, and then completed the bank transfer on the spot.

Tony also quickly wrote the supporting documents and handed them to Ye Tian.

Then after a few minutes, Tony received a confirmation call from the bank that the amount of 78,500 euros had been paid.

At this point, even if the art transaction is completely completed, the money and the money are lost.

After that, Ye Tian and the others left, carrying two oil paintings in waterproof painting bags, and walked out of this gallery.

Before leaving here, Tony also asked Ye Tian to talk about the appraisal conclusion of the Baroque style oil painting to solve his doubts.

Ye Tian chuckled and shook his head, refused his request, then turned and left.
