"Ye Tian, ​​your kid is really too dark to start, but who makes me like this Xuande blue and white lotus pattern plum bottle? I quoted 15.5 million yuan, I hope I can win this treasure as I wish."

A top collector under the stage said with a wry smile and gave his own offer.

As soon as his voice fell, there was already an exclamation on the scene.

"Wow! 15 million and 500,000 yuan, just to buy a broken Xuande blue and white plum bottle? Did I hear it right?"

"I'm an eye-opener today. This is a top collector. Tens of millions of yuan is not a big deal in the eyes of others. It's like us, tens of thousands of yuan should be considered."

The people who exclaimed are basically non-professionals, and this has happened more than once.

At this time, the auction of this Xuande blue and white plum bottle has reached the fifth round, which is the free bidding stage.

After four previous rounds of bidding, Ye Tian has mentioned the offer of this Xuande blue and white plum bottle to 10 million yuan, and the fifth round of free bidding was launched on the basis of 10 million yuan.

Before this top collector, seven or eight buyers have already given their own quotations. Every time they give a quotation, it will cause a stir on the scene.

RMB 15.5 million is the highest price so far and it has attracted the most exclamations.

In an exclamation, Ye Tian nodded to the top collector under the stage with a smile and said:

"Thank you for your support, Mr. Wang, I also hope that you can get what you want, take this Xuande blue and white lotus pattern plum bottle, and add another heavyweight collection to your collection room.

Although this Xuande blue and white plum bottle is a remnant, the damage is on the bottom. From the surface, there is no flaw at all, and it does not affect the daily appreciation and display.

No matter who won the competition today and successfully won the Xuande blue and white plum bottle, I can say with certainty that he definitely picked up a big deal and received a treasure! "

Hearing what he said, Mr. Wang, who was sitting in the audience, and all other professionals nodded in agreement, no disagreement.

They saw the value of this Xuande blue and white plum bottle, and they participated in the bidding. Every competitor wanted to win this rare antique porcelain.

While talking, the scene on the big screen has changed again, and an entrepreneur sitting at another table gave a new offer.

"16.48 million RMB, this is my offer"

With the release of this quotation, there was a voice of exclamation once again.

Next, several professionals gave their respective quotations and joined the competition for this Xuande blue and white lotus pattern plum bottle.

And the quotations they gave were high and low, and caused a commotion on the scene.

It didn’t take long, and the professionals who were interested in competing for this Xuande blue and white lotus pattern plum bottle have all made their own quotations.

Next, the live camera's lens was aimed at Ye Tian, ​​and everyone on the scene also looked at him, expecting him to announce the final result of the auction.

Especially those professionals who participate in the bidding, everyone's eyes are extremely hot, and they are also a little nervous, everyone is looking forward to hearing the best answer.

Ye Tian, ​​who was standing behind the auction platform, glanced at the scene quickly, then smiled and raised the auction mallet in his hand, then fell down again.

"boom!"

At the same time that the hammer was finalized, he also announced loudly the results of the auction.

"15.76 million yuan, the transaction was made. The winning bidder was the famous collector Mr. Qian. Congratulations to Mr. Qian for successfully winning this Ming Xuande blue and white lotus pattern plum vase"

The voice fell, and Mr. Qian, who was sitting in the audience, immediately waved his arm in excitement to celebrate.

Immediately afterwards, the top domestic collector stood up, clasped his fists and arched his hands at Ye Tian, ​​and arched his hands at the rest of the scene, and said a few words of kindness.

Those buyers who failed in the bidding sighed with regret, then quickly adjusted their emotions, and gestured to Mr. Qian to congratulate him.

The professionals who participated in this wedding banquet are all famous figures in the field of antique art collection. They have seen countless big scenes, and naturally they will not express their emotions on their faces because of the success or failure of an auction.

Happiness and anger are invisible, for them, it is just the most basic quality.

Before Mr. Qian sat down, a notary sitting behind the notary booth got up and announced the upper limit of the transaction price of this Xuande blue and white lotus pattern plum bottle.

The upper limit of the transaction price set by Ye Tian for this Xuande blue and white plum bottle is 15.78 million yuan, which is only 20,000 yuan higher than the quotation given by Mr. Qian. The difference is very small!

Hearing the upper limit of the transaction price, Mr. Qian, who was standing in the audience, was startled in a cold sweat, secretly thanking him.

The other contenders who came back unfailingly shook their heads and sighed with regret, but they could only accept this result and set their goal on the next antique artwork to be unveiled.

The first antique artwork in the third round was successfully sold. For this result, Ye Tian is naturally very satisfied.

Next, it's time for the second antique artwork to debut.

At this time, everyone in the banquet hall has guessed that the next one to appear on the stage must be an antique artwork from the West, and it is very valuable.

The value of    is likely to be the same as or even higher than that of the Xuande blue and white lotus pattern plum vase just shot.

What exactly is this Western antique artwork? Which artist did it come from, what era, what artistic style, and its value? Everyone knows nothing.

Just as everyone was enthusiastically guessing and discussing, Ye Tian, ​​who was standing behind the auction table, nodded gently to the two employees of the company and motioned them to show the next antique artwork.

The two company employees nodded in response, and then acted.

They picked up a painting bag from those unsold items, then opened it, carefully took out a painting from it, and placed it on the display shelf in front of the auction table.

As everyone guessed, this is a Western artwork.

Presented before everyone is an oil painting on canvas. The size is small, no more than forty centimeters wide, and a little over fifty centimeters high. It is enclosed in a delicate cherry wood frame.

This is a still life. In the painting is a pot of gladiolus in full bloom. It is placed on the table in front of the window. The sun shines through the window on the pot of gladiolus and the table.

'S painting looks like an impressionist work, but it is specious, and it also has a bit of post-impressionism and color separation.

To be more precise, the painter's painting techniques were deeply influenced by impressionism, post-impressionism, and color separation, and thus formed his own very unique style of painting.

The pot of gladiolus bathed in the sun in this painting, although beautifully blooming and full of colors, gives people a subtle and romantic feeling. Although it is a still life sketch, the whole painting is full of poetry.

Just as the painting was placed on the display stand, a series of close-up shots of the painting were also given on the large-screen TV on the scene, and the picture was very clear.

The scene was quiet again. Everyone was admiring the painting and the poetic expression of the painter's brush.

After just a moment of appreciation, there was a sound of admiration and discussion.

"This still life sketch is so beautiful, I don't know whose painting it is?"

"To be honest, this style of still life sketching is really rare. This painter should be a well-known master of art. As for this painting, it must be very valuable!"

While there was a lot of discussion, everyone was guessing who the artist who created this painting was. The professionals on the scene were also whispering or guessing.

As the top domestic collectors and antique art appraisal experts, they don't know much about Western art related knowledge and appraisal, and it is inevitable that they are confused.

Even a few top collectors with a reputation in the international auction market, such as Mr. Liu from Shanghai, saw this painting, but they couldn’t figure out which artist it was.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Ye Tianqinglang's voice came again, clearly reaching everyone on the scene.

"The still life you see now is strictly speaking a work of art that blends separationism and impressionism. It was created by the famous Italian painter Caesar Monti in the 20th century.

As for the famous Italian painter Caesar Monti of the 20th century, you may not know it. Here, I think it is necessary to briefly introduce this painting so that everyone can better appreciate this painting."

Speaking of this, the non-professionals on the scene did not perform anything abnormally. Only a few guests who knew Caesar Monti had a hint of surprise on their faces.

Contrary to them, the eyes of many professionals on the scene suddenly lit up with excitement.

Especially Mr. Liu from Shanghai, a flash of ecstasy flashed in his eyes, and Ye Tian saw it really and clearly.

Ye Tian just smiled softly and continued his performance.

"Caesar Monti is a legendary Italian painter and a leading figure in the Italian art movement in the 20th century. He has an extremely important position in the history of Western art ~ www.novelhall.com ~ one of the three famous art exhibitions in the world At the Venice Biennale, Caesar Monti was the only artist invited to participate in the Venice Biennale for 14 consecutive times.

The Venice Biennale even set up a special exhibition hall to display his 28 paintings. This is a special courtesy that has never been seen before and caused a huge sensation.

Caesar Monti was also named one of the 25 greatest painters in the history of the Venice Biennale, and he was also the most valuable artist in the 22nd Venice Biennale.

You may have heard that Mr. Liu, a top collector in Shanghai, spent nearly 1.1 billion yuan in the first two years to photograph a work by the famous painter Modigliani in New York.

In the Italian art world, Caesar Monti and Modigliani are called the pride of Italy and the twin stars of the Italian art world. They are also a pair of best friends!

Meanwhile, Modigliani is also the idol of Caesar Monti. In many of Caesar Monti’s paintings, Modigliani’s shadow can be seen, and this painting is one of them.”

Speaking of this, Ye Tian raised his hand and gestured to Mr. Liu who was in the audience.

Mr. Liu, who was sitting down the stage, immediately stood up and nodded to him, then nodded to the people around him, and then sat down again.

No surprise, the scene boiled again, and the exclamation sounded one after another.

Everyone is shocked by Mr. Liu's great work, and also amazed by Caesar Monty's position in the history of Western art!
