During the journey, Mikhail introduced the Hermitage Museum to everyone, and there was a sense of pride in his words.
"The Hermitage Museum is one of the four largest museums in the world. It ranks alongside the Louvre in Paris, the British Museum in London, and the Metropolitan Museum in New York, with the largest collection in the world.
This museum was the first private residence of Queen Catherine II. Because of his passion for art and collection, Catherine II bought about 250 paintings from Berlin in 1764.
Including the outstanding works of top art masters Rembrandt, Rubens and others. After these paintings were shipped to St. Petersburg, Catherine II deposited them in the new wing of the Hermitage.
The name of this new wing is Hermitage, which is Old French and means ‘Hidden Palace’. The Hermitage Museum got its name from this, and it has continued to become one of the four largest museums in the world.
The Hermitage Museum is the most important landmark in St. Petersburg, the most important art museum in Russia, and the most typical representative of Russian Baroque architecture in the 18th century.
Its main building is the Winter Palace, the imperial palace of the Russian tsar, located on the Winter Palace Square, adjacent to the south bank of the Neva River. It is the most dazzling pearl in St. Petersburg and the most spectacular historical building on the Neva River.
In the course of more than two hundred years of development, the Hermitage Museum has been expanding in scale and eventually became a huge ancient building complex with a total area of more than 1.3 million square meters including six royal palaces.
These six palaces are the Hermitage, Little Hermitage, Old Hermitage, Hermitage Reserve, Hermitage Theater, New Hermitage, which are distributed along the Neva River embankment. Connected and coordinated in layout.
Without exception, these six 18th-century Russian Baroque-style imperial palace buildings are tall, magnificent, unique, gorgeous and elegant, and each building is a classic.
The Hermitage Museum is not only famous for its diverse Baroque architectural classics, but also for its extensive and rare collection of culture and art, making it one of the four largest museums in the world.
For now, the Hermitage Museum has a total of more than 3 million works of art from ancient to present, all over the world, including paintings, sculptures, archaeological relics, ancient coins and many other categories.
If a person visits the Hermitage Museum and wants to see all the antique artworks in the museum, it will take sixteen years to stand for only three minutes in front of each exhibit.
Excluding the other five palaces, the Winter Palace alone has 1057 rooms for displaying collections and 117 stairs. If you want to visit all the 353 open exhibition halls of the museum, the journey is 22 kilometers away.
In these 353 exhibition halls, five percent of all Hermitage's treasures are displayed. Even if you look at one in a minute, it will take you a quarter without sleep to finish watching these exhibits."
"Yes, this is the reason why I only watch the Western European Art Department and the Oriental National Culture Department today and tomorrow, and I can only watch flowers. The Hermitage collection is so rich that it is impossible in a short time. Finish watching"
Ye Tian said successively, with some regret in his tone.
"Wow! This scale is too exaggerated. It seems that visiting the Hermitage Museum and admiring various exquisite antique artworks is also an activity that requires a lot of mental and physical energy."
David exclaimed in a low voice, and the rest of the employees and security personnel of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company were the same. They were all surprised by the sheer size of the Hermitage Museum.
Seeing their performance, the color of pride in Mikhail's eyes suddenly became stronger, and the rest of the Russians who came with him all felt proud.
For them, the Hermitage Museum is the most shining jewel in Russia and St. Petersburg. It is indeed worthy of their pride.
While talking, everyone has walked up the stairs to the second floor of the museum.
What appeared in front of everyone was a tall and magnificent corridor leading directly to the depths of the museum.
This is a typical Baroque style building with a bit of Russian cultural characteristics. It is tall and magnificent, magnificent, and the color contrast between the building and the decoration is strong, giving a strong visual impact.
In this magnificent corridor, from the ground to the walls, to the window lattices by the river, to the zenith, and crystal chandeliers, etc., almost every place and everything is radiating golden light.
The Russians used gilt and inlaid craftsmanship to completely decorate this baroque-style corridor into a golden corridor.
The first time they saw this golden corridor, everyone stopped in unison, and they were all shocked to appreciate the scenery in front of them.
At the same time, Mikhail’s voice kept coming, introducing everyone to this golden corridor.
"Gentlemen, what you see now is one of the treasures of the Hermitage Museum, the Raphael Promenade. This beautiful promenade is a replica of the Pope’s Palace Gallery in the Vatican.
In 1775, after Catherine II visited the Papal Palace Gallery in the Vatican and a series of frescoes by Raphael, he was deeply shocked by it, and with the rise of the idea of reviving the frescoes.
Next, she sent a painter to the Vatican to make a copy, copied the murals onto the canvas, and then brought them back to St. Petersburg, and built this golden corridor in accordance with the Vatican Pope Gallery.
This is a long corridor with complicated structure. On the top is a continuous semi-dome. The pillars, vaults, and the ends of the round arches are inlaid with various patterns and decorated with a lot of gold carvings.
During World War II, the authorities removed all the gold carvings here because they were worried about the looting of these precious gold carvings by the German army. Now everyone sees them are basically gilt carvings! "
"Even if they are just gilt carvings, they are already brilliant enough, it is breathtaking, and everyone can hardly open their eyes!"
Ye Tian replied, and sent a few emotions.
The rest of the people are all dazzled, and they are all shocked by the luxurious promenade in front of them.
After a short pause, Mikhail continued:
"The Raphael Promenade is composed of thirteen parts, which are separated by tall arches. Seen from the stairway, this long corridor gives people a harmonious extension.
The decorative paintings on both sides of the are called grotesque paintings, which combine fantasy with the world of animals and plants. A variety of antique artworks are displayed here, mainly musical instruments, human bodies and ancient Greek statues.
The vaulted ceiling depicts fifty-two biblical stories headed by "Genesis". These oil paintings are also known as the Raphael Bible. A short walk along the promenade is the Raphael Hall.
Because there are some Italian black-glazed pottery on display, the Raphael Hall is also called the black-glazed pottery hall, but the most important exhibits in this hall are two paintings by the Renaissance master Raphael.
They are Raphael’s "Madonna and Child" and "Holy Family", even the Hermitage, who is proud of the collection of Western paintings and arguably the world’s major museums~www.novelhall.com~ They are also among the town halls. treasure.
In addition to these two treasures of the town hall, the Raphael Hall also displays several other top art pieces, such as Lorenzo's sculpture based on Raphael's sketch, "The Little Boy Died on a Dolphin",... "
Hearing this, no one can stand up.
The next moment, Ye Tian couldn't wait to say:
"Mikhail, let's go to the Raphael Hall now, and take a good look at the few valuable top art works. As for the Raphael Promenade and other antique artworks displayed in the promenade, we will come back later. enjoy.
Especially the famous Raphael painting that is only the size of a palm, "The Virgin and Child", I have long wanted to come and appreciate it. Since I am here in Hermitage, I can't miss this top art. Product"
It's not him. The rest of the people on the scene also had the same idea, wishing to enter the Raphael Hall immediately and immediately see the few priceless top artworks.
Mikhail looked at Ye Tian, then smiled and nodded and said:
"Everyone, please come with me, let's go to the Raphael Hall and enjoy the treasures of the town hall in our museum"
After speaking, Mikhail made a gesture of please, and then led Ye Tian and the others into the Raphael Promenade and walked straight to the Raphael Hall.
A few minutes later, the group of them had entered the Raphael Hall.
As soon as he entered here, and just glanced at the environment in the exhibition hall, Ye Tian spit out secretly.
"I'll go! These old men are so big-hearted, so they are so willing!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
