After leaving Tony's gallery and walking along the arched colonnade for about ten meters, David couldn't bear his strong curiosity anymore, and he approached Ye Tian and asked in a low voice:

"Steven, that baroque landscape oil painting, which master artist is it? How much is it worth? A work of art worth 60,000 euros, I believe it is not enough to impress you.

Since you took down the oil painting without hesitation and used a realistic landscape painting to cover it, then I can basically be sure that the baroque style oil painting must be a top art!

Now that we have left Tony’s gallery, we don’t have to worry about leaking the secrets. Let me tell you about the Baroque landscape oil painting. I believe you all want to know the answer to this question! "

Following David's words, Jason and the others all looked at Ye Tian, ​​looking forward to his answer.

Ye Tian glanced at these guys, then smiled and whispered:

"You guessed it, that baroque-style landscape oil painting was indeed by a famous artist, and behind it there is a very wonderful but sad story.

I can tell everyone about my appraisal conclusions, but I can’t be here. Don’t forget, we are followed by a lot of Italian cultural relics and military police. The situation of this painting must be kept secret from those guys.

If you let those guys know that this is a priceless top art, with Italy’s policy on top antique art, no one should ever leave Italy with this painting!

Let's go to the square outside the colonnade. Everyone opens the bulletproof umbrellas to block the sight of the Italian cultural relics and military police. Then I will introduce this baroque landscape painting to everyone! "

Upon hearing this, David and Jason all laughed heartily.

Later, Ye Tian took these guys out of the colonnade and walked back into the snow flying in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, each of them opened the bullet-proof umbrella in their hands, blocking the sight of others, and then strolled forward, seeming to be obsessed with the feeling of walking in the snow.

After taking cover, Ye Tian began to explain the Baroque painting that he had just received.

"Gallery owner Tony said just now that he believes that this baroque landscape painting was created at the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the 18th century by an unknown but highly skilled artist.

Moreover, he believes that the style of this painting looks a lot like Rembrandt, but it is specious. In the use of bright and dark light, this painter is obviously much more extreme than Rembrandt.

The specific expression is in the painting. This painting does not seem to have the sense of stability and solemnity that Rembrandt's works are used to. Instead, the theme is very dark, giving people a feeling of sadness and even despair.

Coupled with the fact that this painting does not have the author's signature and does not mark the specific time of its creation, for these reasons, Tony believes that this painting is not a work by Rembrandt, but by an unknown painter.

However, Tony only saw the surface and didn't see the deeper things, so his identification was completely wrong. I'm sure that this baroque style oil painting is definitely Rembrandt's authentic.

According to my judgment, the time when Rembrandt created this painting should be between 1642 and 1650. The subject of the painting has never appeared in Rembrandt's other paintings and is unique.

In the history of Western art, this painting has a very important position and its value is immeasurable. Its value is not even lower than Rembrandt's most famous masterpiece, the "Night Watch" which is regarded as an invaluable treasure! "

Before the words fell, David and the others immediately exclaimed in a low voice.

"I knew it! Steven, you guys will never aimlessly. Putting a piece of art worth 60,000 euros in your eyes, sure enough! This painting is indeed a top-notch art of invaluable value!"

"Oh my God! The value of Rembrandt's masterpiece, "Night Watch", which is worthy of the invaluable treasure, I heard right? Doesn't it mean that this Baroque painting is worth hundreds of millions of dollars at least?

Exclamations kept ringing one after another, everyone was completely shocked by the appraisal conclusion given by Ye Tian, ​​one by one was dumbfounded.

Fortunately, everyone has opened the bulletproof umbrellas, blocking the sight of the surrounding people, and coupled with the large number of security personnel guarding the periphery, there is no need to worry about leaks.

Otherwise, once those Italian cultural relics gendarmerie saw their exaggerated expressions, they would probably be able to guess right away. This painting is definitely a top-level work of art, so it would be troublesome!

After exclaiming, David asked in a low voice curiously:

"Steven, I still don't quite understand. Why does the style of this painting show a sense of despair? I have also admired a lot of Rembrandt's works. This is not the case with other works."

Ye Tian turned to look at this guy, then smiled and said in a low voice:

"Yes, in all other Rembrandt paintings, you can't see this. The use of light and dark is more coordinated. In those paintings, people seem to be able to see light in the dark.

But in this painting, people see only endless darkness, sadness and despair. Of course, there is a reason for this, and it is a sad story!

This starts with the "Night Watch" known as the priceless treasure. As we all know, that painting is a group portrait of 16 security shooters in Amsterdam customized to Rembrandt.

However, when Rembrandt worked hard to complete the masterpiece, the sixteen crude security shooters were very dissatisfied, thinking that Rembrandt did not equalize their status.

They don't understand Rembrandt's unique artistic expression of contrast between light and dark. Instead, they think that the light and shade of the characters in the paintings are different in size, which is an insult to some of them.

The stupid security gunmen not only refused to accept the painting, but took Rembrandt to court. This was a riot at the time, and the whole of Amsterdam was laughing at Rembrandt.

At that time, some people even cursed Rembrandt viciously, saying that he was destined to face the desperate situation of no one buying paintings, and for the rest of his life, even if he died, he would be buried like a beggar!

Because of this incident, no one will come to Rembrandt to paint group portraits. Coupled with the extravagance of his wife and brothers, Rembrandt's life situation has begun to take a turn for the worse.

But who could have imagined that more than a hundred years later, talents in Amsterdam discovered that the whole world regarded Rembrandt as the top art master, and his status was no less than that of the Renaissance art masters!

As for the masterpiece that attracted countless ridicules and was rejected by 16 Amsterdam security shooters, "Night Watch" has become a national treasure of the Netherlands and is known as a priceless treasure! "

Upon hearing this, David and Jason both nodded slightly. They knew something about the famous priceless "Night Watch" and the story behind it!

At the same time they nodded, everyone sighed to themselves.

What is Mingzhu secret casting? This is a perfect example.

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:

"It was during those days when countless people ridiculed that Rembrandt suffered another severe blow. His wife unfortunately passed away shortly after giving birth to his last son, Taitas!

Rembrandt and his wife had four children in total, but only Taitas survived, and all the others died. In order to take care of this young son, he hired an uneducated young village woman as a nanny.

The village woman's name was Handrick. Soon after she came to Rembrandt's house, the young village woman became Rembrandt's mistress and gave birth to a daughter, which was not accepted at the time.

As soon as the news came out, the whole of Amsterdam was completely excited. People thought their feelings were a scandal and a kind of communication. The local church even officially condemned it as a ‘sinful life’.

At that time, the entire petty bourgeoisie of Amsterdam was caught in an excitement of having the opportunity to pour dirty water on the noble soul. Everyone was watching a good show and everyone was laughing at Rembrandt.

The local Calvinist priest also began to condemn Rembrandt’s lover Handreck, which triggered another more violent storm. From then on, no one asked Rembrandt to paint.

Next, only various creditors began to come to collect debts, Rembrandt's life became even more difficult, and this difficulty has been throughout Rembrandt's rest of his life, no improvement.

In Rembrandt's later years, one of his paintings could only be sold for one hundred rupee coins. Since then, a noble soul has fallen, and the once brilliant Dutch school of painting has also begun to decline.

According to my judgment, the Baroque landscape painting that I discovered today should have been created in the era when Rembrandt was attacked by gangs and ridiculed by everyone, and this is the only one.

At that time, Rembrandt had no hope in life, only endless darkness, and the whole person was completely shrouded in despair. All of this is reflected in this painting!

The reason why I say ~www.novelhall.com~ the value of this landscape oil painting is not lower than that of "Night Watch", because it represents the darkest period in Rembrandt's life, and represents the sinking of a noble soul!

It is also the beginning and sign of the decline of the Dutch school. It has a unique position in art history. The sadness and despair it shows can be regarded as the elegy of the Dutch school!

Of course, these appraisal conclusions still need evidence to support, but I believe that in this unique Rembrandt work, more evidence will be found to support my appraisal conclusion! "

When speaking of these last few sentences, Ye Tian's tone was extremely firm and full of confidence.

Of course, he knew in his heart what secrets were hidden in this painting, and whether he could prove his appraisal conclusion and prove the great value of this painting.

At this time, David and the others were all fascinated by it, and they nodded frequently.

Regarding the appraisal conclusion given by Ye Tian, ​​they had no doubts!

Undoubtedly, this baroque-style landscape oil painting must be an authentic Rembrandt, another indisputable treasure!
