"Treasure Hunt ( to find the latest chapters!

"David, I think you know a little about the story of'fleeing to Egypt' in the Bible, but in order for you to better appreciate Caravaggio's oil painting, I still want to introduce it.

After **** was born, the three doctors of the East heard the news and knew that the savior of mankind was born, and they went to the holy city of Jerusalem to worship together, but they aroused the fear of King Herod of Israel.

When **** could not be found, King Herod the Great immediately ordered the killing of all the baby boys in the Bethlehem area, where **** was born, in order to kill **** and avoid threatening his rule.

God asked Joseph, the foster father of Jesus, to take the Virgin Mary and the newborn **** to neighboring Egypt to avoid hunting and killing. This is the story of the escape to Egypt.

In this oil painting, Caravaggio used his own paintbrush to depict this plot. In the painting, the Virgin Mary is riding on the back of a donkey, mixed in with the migrating crowd, and is walking on a country road.

The one who was in charge of guiding in the front was Joseph, the foster father of Jesus, and the baby in the arms of the Virgin Mary, who was naturally Jesus. In addition, there were several servants and passers-by who went to Egypt with them.

When painting this oil painting, Caravaggio abandoned some traditional painting methods, allowing the Virgin Mary and **** to land on the earth, full of secular human touch, just like a pair of ordinary mother and child.

It can be said that this is a living worldly picture. Caravaggio invited the gods to the world and turned them into human beings, and contrasted with light and dark light to set off a tense atmosphere."

Ye Tian introduced this oil painting to David and the others, and the story behind it.

Around the table next to it, the Bishop of Kent and Giovanni were carefully admiring and studying this oil painting. Everyone was extremely excited, and their eyes were shining brightly.

Fortunately, they are still a bit sane, remembering Ye Tian's previous warning, and did not get started to touch this priceless top art!

"Yes, this is definitely the work of the artist Caravaggio, and it is one of his most outstanding masterpieces. It is so precious!"

The curator of Brera Art Museum murmured to himself, his body trembling slightly with excitement.

Not only him, but also other experts and scholars on the scene!

At this moment, Tony's voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.

"Steven, we found two more concealed compartments, which were also taken out on the inner wall. In these two concealed compartments, an object was placed on each, and the outside was wrapped in black moisture-proof tarpaulin. painting!"

Following Tony's announcement, everyone in this room turned their heads and looked at the door. Everyone became more excited and full of curiosity.

Those Italians who were also on the scene felt excited and curious, but at the same time they felt even more bitter!

They clearly know that the more top artworks are discovered today, the greater the loss suffered by Italy, can it make people feel distressed!

As soon as Tony's voice fell, Ye Tian picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Received, Tony, I'll come over right away to see what we will gain again this time"

After speaking, he nodded to David, then turned and left the room.

David nodded knowingly, then walked to the table and assumed the supervisory responsibilities.

In just a short time, Ye Tian had returned to this room, and at the same time brought back two long cylindrical objects wrapped in a moisture-proof tarpaulin.

Not surprisingly, everyone at the scene looked at him, looked at the two objects in his hand, and everyone's eyes were extremely hot.

"From the appearance point of view, these are two oil paintings again, but I don't know, which of the top art masters are they?"

"I have to say that this series of discoveries today is really amazing. The emergence of these top oil paintings that have been hidden for more than two hundred years will definitely cause a huge sensation!"

When everyone was talking about it, Ye Tian already came to the table and gently placed the two newly discovered oil paintings on the table.

Afterwards, he quickly glanced at the crowd, smiled and said:

"Gentlemen, this "Escape to Egypt" by Caravaggio, the founder of Baroque art, everyone has seen and appreciated it carefully. There must be no doubt.

In order to save time and protect this oil painting, I will put away this oil painting. After some time, when these top art works are on public display, everyone will come to enjoy it again! "

With that said, Ye Tian had put on his gloves and carefully began to collect this top-level artwork, slowly rolling it up.

Looking at his movements and looking at this top art that will be put away, everyone at the scene was reluctant and even a little bit painful.

Especially Italians like Giovanni, everyone feels that their heart is bleeding!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian rolled up Caravaggio's "Escape to Egypt" and prepared to put it into a prepared telescopic painting tube.

At this moment, the reporter from NBC TV suddenly asked curiously:

"Steven, I would like to ask, how much do you value Caravaggio's "Escape from Egypt"? This question is a bit vulgar, but I think many people want to know the answer to this question."

Following this question, everyone at the scene looked at Ye Tian, ​​looking forward to his answer.

Ye Tian looked at the NBC TV reporter, then smiled and said:

"The work of Caravaggio, the founder of Baroque art, I have owned before. It is the piece "St. Francis, St. Lawrence and the Nativity" found in Boston, which is one of Caravaggio's masterpieces.

The artistic value of this "Escape to Egypt" is no less than that of the Italian national treasure oil painting, or even higher. When I sold that oil painting to the Italian government, I priced it at 150 million U.S. dollars.

The final sale price of the oil painting was exactly 150 million U.S. dollars. The value of the "Escape to Egypt" in front of me is much higher than that of that one. If it is really to be valued, I would value this oil painting at 180 million. Ten million dollars.

The reason for this valuation is that it has great artistic value, and the works of the swordsman painter Caravaggio are extremely rare, there are only a few pieces, and the scarcity is the most precious! "

Before the voice was over, the scene was thoroughly fried.

"Oh my God! 180 million U.S. dollars, I heard that right, this valuation is really amazing!"

"This is really a huge treasure. Just the valuation of this oil painting can buy dozens of such historical buildings!"

While everyone exclaimed, Giovanni and the rest of the Italians on the scene were about to faint with distress.

In the previous picture of Caravaggio's "St. Francis, St. Lawrence and the Nativity of Jesus", Steven this **** slaughtered the Italian government severely. The appearance of the "Escape from Egypt" in front of him seems to be a tragedy. Repeat it!

Thinking of this, the Italians at the scene felt even more distressed, and each of them hated Ye Tianhen's teeth.

Even so, they can only choose to stretch their necks and let others kill ~www.novelhall.com~Steven, don't know what you plan to do with this Caravaggio's "Escape to Egypt"? If possible, our Brera Art Museum intends to acquire this top art piece.

This "Escape to Egypt" has been hidden in the wall for too long. The picture is very fragile. For safety reasons, it is best not to transport it over long distances and try to protect it on the spot.

Our Brera Art Museum is the best museum in Milan, with the top exhibition conditions and many top cultural and museum personnel, which can provide the best protection and collection conditions for this oil painting.

You don't collect art with strong religious colors. When you find this kind of art, you usually choose to sell it. In that case, why not sell this piece of "Escape to Egypt" to us! "

The director of the Brera Museum of Art can't wait to say, his words are full of expectations.

With this kind of thought, he was not the only one at the scene, and the other experts and scholars were also eager to try.

Ye Tian looked at this old friend, glanced at the others, and then gave his own answer.

"Brad, you're right. I really don't want to collect this Caravaggio's "Escape to Egypt", and I also intend to sell this top art piece. It would be nice to be able to sell it locally in Milan.

If you want to buy this oil painting at the Brera Art Museum, I welcome you with your hands. Not only you, other famous museums and top collectors, I also welcome them to join the competition, the higher the price!

Regarding the transaction, let’s talk about it later. The most important thing right now is to open the remaining oil paintings that have been wrapped in moisture-proof tarpaulins and have been hidden for more than two hundred years, so that everyone can witness the miracle.

With that said, Ye Tian had put "Escape to Egypt" into the painting tube, then put the painting tube aside, and picked up the second oil painting wrapped in moisture-proof tarpaulin!
