Chapter 1400: Moulin Rouge
The Hispanic stall owner considered it for a while, but finally rejected Ye Tian.
"I'm very sorry, Steven, three thousand euros really won't work"
This was exactly what Ye Tian wanted. He immediately pointed his finger at his real goal and asked with a smile:
"Since I can't buy oil paintings, let me take a look at these posters, man, what is the price of that poster? If I read it correctly, it should be a poster for'Moulin Rouge', right?
I have long admired the world-famous "Moulin Rouge" for a long time, and I have always wanted to go there to see it with my own eyes, to see the golden cave where drunken gold fans, singing songs every night, and enjoy the charming "Cancan dance".
We will visit there later. What we didn't expect is that before visiting the Moulin Rouge, we could encounter an antique poster of the Moulin Rouge here. Good luck! "
It was an old ballroom poster, about one meter wide and about one meter two high. It was clamped on the display stand with two clips and swayed gently in the breeze.
The color of the poster paper is a little yellow, the corners are a little damaged, and there are several deep creases. It is quite old at first glance, and the preservation condition is not very satisfactory!
More importantly, the "Moulin Rouge" propaganda poster had the words July 1892 written in the lower right corner, and the handwriting was clearly visible, so Ye Tiancai said that it was an antique propaganda poster!
Regarding this point, anyone with a discerning eye knows that there is no way to hide it, and there is no need to hide it!
On the poster, a passionate, **** and charming dancer was painted in the center, wearing a red dance dress embroidered with gold rim, dancing the French Cancan dance, her body swaying, and her skirt flying corners.
During the dance, she kicked up her white and transparent left leg, and through the gaps in the flying dance skirt, she could see the spring light under the skirt in a vague way.
Around the dancer, there are a group of gentlemen in formal attire and a top hat. Everyone's eyes are fixed on the **** and charming dancer, eyes full of intoxication!
The background of the painting is the neon flashing and lively ‘Moulin Rouge’ ballroom, the most famous ballroom in France at the end of the nineteenth century, and the golden cave where every night of the music is played.
There is no author's signature on the poster, and this is the opportunity that Ye Tian missed!
The Hispanic stall owner turned his head to look at the poster, then nodded slightly disappointed and said:
"Yes, that's the poster for the'Moulin Rouge' ballroom. It was painted in 1892. It is an antique poster with a history of over a hundred years. It is slightly damaged!
The price of that ‘Moulin Rouge’ poster is 650 Euros. If you can accept this price, then it belongs to you. This is a good souvenir! "
In the eyes of the Hispanic stall owner, it was nothing more than a historical ballroom poster, without the author's signature, and it should not be worth a lot of money.
And that poster is just a thin piece of paper, without a frame and back panel, it is impossible to hide any secrets, just like the Gauguin painting that Ye Tian found in Barbizon!
In Paris at the end of the 19th century, propaganda posters of the "Moulin Rouge" ballroom like this were posted everywhere in Paris, countless, and there are not a few that have survived today!
More importantly, the style of painting shown on the propaganda poster is somewhere between Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, but neither of them. This also affects the judgment of its value.
Because of this, the Hispanic stall owner offered a price of 650 Euros. This price was deliberately higher because of Ye Tian's identity!
If there are other people standing opposite, the price quoted by the Hispanic stall owner must be lower.
Hearing this offer, Ye Tian almost didn't cheer with excitement.
Six hundred and fifty euros! It's almost the same as the one for nothing!
However, Ye Tian didn't immediately nod his head and promised that he was going to perform a full set of acting. In order to make the performance more realistic, he was still going to kill the price.
Pretending to think, he calmed down his excitement a bit, then smiled and said:
"Although that poster has a history of more than 100 years, it is considered an antique poster, but it is in a decent state of preservation. Six hundred and fifty euros is a bit expensive. Five hundred euros, I will accept that poster!"
Five hundred euros! This price has far exceeded the psychological price of Hispanic stall owners, and it is considered a small profit. There is no reason to disagree!
For him, it is an antique poster collected as garbage, and it is profitable if you can sell it. Five hundred euros is already a small surprise!
Fearing that Ye Tian would go back, he barely hesitated, the Hispanic vendor nodded and accepted Ye Tian's offer!
"Okay, Steven, five hundred euros, deal! This'Moulin Rouge' poster belongs to you!"
"Deal! Five hundred euros"
Ye Tian shook hands with the Hispanic stall owner, with a bright smile on his face.
After shaking hands and closing the deal, Ye Tian immediately took out his wallet, took out five hundred euros and handed it to this delighted, but in fact, hispanic buddy.
Putting away the five hundred euros, the guy turned around, took off the antique poster of the'Moulin Rouge' ballroom, and handed it to Ye Tian, his face still full of joy.
After receiving the promotional posters, Ye Tian first pretended to look through them one after another, and then watched them carefully. Then he said to the Hispanic stall owner:
"Man, can you give me a certificate to prove that I bought this poster from you, so that I can bring this poster through the French customs!"
As you can see, the preservation of this poster is not ideal, and I can't just hold it in my hand. It's very inconvenient. Give me a telescopic drawing tube! "
With that said, Ye Tian took another hundred euros from his wallet and handed them to the Hispanic stall owner.
Hearing this, Betty and Anderson's eyes lit up in an instant, shining straight!
This scene is so familiar!
Needless to say, the slightly outdated "Moulin Rouge" poster is by no means an ordinary item worth only 500 Euros, but a very valuable piece of art!
Undoubtedly, this guy Steven picked up another terrible leak. As for the Hispanic stall owner, he became another tragic and unlucky one, and was smashed!
Although very excited, Betty and the others controlled their emotions in the blink of an eye, and they did not behave too abnormally.
They have seen scenes like this countless times, and they have already practiced it!
"No problem, Steven, I'll give you a certificate. There are several telescopic drawing tubes in the booth, you can pick them out!"
The Hispanic stall owner agreed very readily and reached out and took the one hundred euros from Ye Tian.
Soon after, this buddy began to bow his head to write a proof.
Ye Tian leaned over and picked up a black telescopic drawing tube from the booth, then opened it and prepared to put the poster in it.
At this moment, an unfamiliar voice suddenly came from the crowd watching.
"Steven, tell everyone about the ‘Moulin Rouge’ promotional poster. You can be inspired by it and buy it. I think that promotional poster is definitely unusual and not ordinary!"
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately turned to look at the crowd on the right.
The speaker was a white man in his fifties, dressed casually, with a few oil paints on his clothes, and looked like a painter, with a bit of an artist's temperament.
As soon as this voice fell, someone nearby began to agree.
"Yes, Steven, tell everyone about that poster. How much is that poster worth? I think it's definitely more than five hundred euros, right?"
"Steven, you have found a lot of treasures in France. This propaganda oil painting must be no exception. Let me tell you about it. Everyone here wants to know the answer!"
Hearing these words, the Hispanic buddy who had just issued the proof suddenly shook his heart and cried out that it was broken. Could it be that I was scammed by the **** Steven?
Thinking of this, he immediately raised his head to look at Ye Tian, his eyes uncertain and regretful!
Ye Tian did not immediately respond to the inquiries of the crowd. He first reached out and took the certificate from the Hispanic stall owner, put it in his pocket, and then looked at the crowd in a leisurely manner.
He scanned the scene quickly, then said with a smile on his face:
"Since everyone has a strong request, and the hospitality is hard to resist, then I will tell you about this antique propaganda poster of the'Moulin Rouge' ballroom to solve everyone's doubts!
Before that, I would love to hear how the former owner of this antique poster viewed this poster? Rodriguez, can you tell us something? "
Speaking of ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, Ye Tian turned to look at the Hispanic stall owner, Rodriguez.
At this time, this buddy's complexion has become very ugly, a blue eye, full of regret!
Rodriguez is 100% sure that he has been pitted by this terrible **** in front of him, and he has missed a valuable artwork!
Although he still didn't understand the value of that ‘Moulin Rouge’ poster, he was very sure!
"Man, tell everyone about that promotional poster, everyone wants to hear it!"
"Yes, man, be generous!"
There was a sound of sympathy or booing at the scene, many of which meant gloating.
It’s the same everywhere. As long as it’s not a matter of your own, there are always people who don’t think it’s too much to watch the excitement!
