Chapter 1685: Eternal beauty
"The painting "Spring" can be called an'encyclopedia of flowers'. In this painting, Botticelli painted more than 170 varieties and more than 500 flowers in total.
Without exception, every flower on this painting is meticulously crafted, blooming in the spring breeze, so delicate and perfect, pleasing to the eye,..."
Ye Tian continued to explain Botticelli's pinnacle work, professional and accurate, and very vivid.
At this time, many visitors have gathered in front of this famous painting.
While enjoying the spring-filled and humanistic painting in front of you, everyone listened to Ye Tian's explanation, and everyone looked intoxicated.
Many other tourists who were visiting the Uffizi Gallery heard that Ye Tian was here publicly explaining Botticelli's "Spring", and they rushed over and joined the listening crowd.
For them, being able to listen to the professional explanations of the top antique art appraisal experts on site is an opportunity that can be met but not sought, how can they be missed?
The explanation continues. Ye Tianqinglang's voice reverberates in the Florentine showroom in the fifteenth century and continues to spread to people's ears.
"In terms of character image processing, Botticelli's treatment of the three beauty goddesses can be said to be unprecedented, because before him, there has never been such a sensual female body.
However, some people think that the reason why the three goddesses Meihui can be so undressed is because they are goddesses, and the feeling they bring to people is a kind of joy without evil thoughts,..."
Ye Tian's voice seemed to have magical powers, drawing the eyes of everyone on the scene, wherever he explained, people's eyes looked at.
Even people's minds are drawn by his clear voice, swimming in the wonderful mood created by this masterpiece, and experiencing the great charm of art.
In the process of appreciating and explaining this famous painting, Ye Tian didn't forget to turn on perspective secretly. If you thoroughly see through this top-level artwork, you might have a surprising discovery.
But unfortunately, there was no surprise. He only saw the creation process of this masterpiece and how Botticelli swayed his genius.
After a few minutes, Ye Tian's explanation finally came to an end.
"..., everything Botticelli has shown in this painting is extremely creative. Despite the limitations of the times, even now, his superb technique is unmatched.
The work "Spring" is a triumph in painting technology. Its exquisite layout and brushwork, superb painting techniques, beautiful human body, and difficult composition to grasp.
All of this reflects the artistic level of Botticelli's genius. Once this painting was published, it immediately caused a huge sensation and became one of the most outstanding works of the early Renaissance.
This is a work depicting spring, and it is also a battle hymn that sings the victory of Venus love. It is a great honor to be able to appreciate and explain this great painting here today"
When the voice fell, the scene immediately fell silent, but everyone was still staring at the famous painting ahead, still drunk.
After a while, people gradually woke up.
"Papa Papa"
The applause began to sound. At first there were only three or five people applauding sporadically, but soon everyone at the scene began to applaud, very warmly.
Everyone applauded Ye Tian, applauded for his professional and vivid explanation, and applauded for this Botticelli pinnacle work.
At this moment, these people at the scene had greatly improved their perception of Ye Tian.
Although this guy Steven is cruel and must report, no matter where he goes, he will cause a series of incidents and ransack the local antique art market.
However, he is indeed the top expert in the field of antique art appraisal and collection. He has extremely solid professional knowledge and profound foundation, and it seems that there is nothing he does not understand.
You can't admire such a guy.
Next, Ye Tian and the others admired this top-level artwork for a while, and then reluctantly walked away to appreciate other top-level artworks displayed in this exhibition hall.
Ten minutes later, they came to another treasure of the Uffizi Gallery and began to appreciate this famous painting.
This is another masterpiece of Botticelli's peak of maturity, "The Birth of Venus", which is also displayed in this exhibition hall.
Like the previous "Spring", this "The Birth of Venus" is also a tempera painting, with a relatively small size, 175 cm high and 287 cm wide.
Similarly, this famous painting was also ordered by the Medici family from Botticelli, created in 1487, a few years later than "Spring."
The content of this painting is a beautiful legend in Sicily:
In the sparkling Aegean Sea, countless beautiful petals fell from the sky, and the fruit Venus stood weakly on a large shell.
She bent her right leg slightly, and her body tilted slightly to the right. Her long golden hair was gently blown away by the sea breeze, her skin was smooth and clear, and her beautiful face showed a certain faint perplexity.
Those innocent and innocent eyes were shrouded in a vein of melancholy and sorrow, showing the helplessness and confusion she had just arrived in this world.
Perhaps deliberately, Venus under Botticelli's brushes had a longer neck and hands, but this added to her elegance and charm.
On the upper left of the picture, the winged **** of wind, Sefoyuros, is blowing his lips slowly towards the shore, standing on the shell.
On the shore, the goddess of spring who came to meet Venus, dressed in gorgeous costumes, was about to put a red cloak full of flowers on her naked body.
The color of the whole painting is bright and harmonious. It does not use light and shade to express the shape of the human body. Instead, outlines are used to make the characters feel embossed. The picture is beautiful and has a strong decorative effect.
In this famous painting, Botticelli used his brushes to reflect a neo-Platonist philosophical trend that was popular in Florence at that time:
"Beauty cannot be gradually perfected or produced from non-beauty. Beauty can only be self-fulfilled. It is incomparable. Beauty is eternal."
Standing in front of the painting quietly admiring it for a while, Ye Tian began to explain, so that Betty and the others could better appreciate this famous and top art work.
"If you want to appreciate this famous painting, you must understand the birth of Venus. In ancient Greek mythology, Venus was born in the Aegean Sea and was born as a girl.
She was born with perfect beauty. She did not have to experience a childhood of ignorance and ignorance, nor did she have to face the twilight years when death was approaching. She was always young and beautiful. She was a symbol of eternal beauty pursued by mankind.
What Botticelli depicts in this painting is exactly the process of the birth of Venus, the **** of love and beauty. The huge shell on her feet symbolizes the birth of Venus.
The painting is based on the famous poet at the time, Polizziano’s work "Giostna". It was inspired by this long poem that Botticelli created this painting,..."
During the explanation, Ye Tian secretly turned on perspective again, looked at this famous painting, and explored whether there were any secrets hidden under the picture.
As far as he can see, the painting is from the outside to the inside, and every detail is clearly presented in his eyes, without any omission.
Even the drawing board at the back, the wall, and even the exhibition hall on the other side of the wall, as well as the paintings displayed in that exhibition hall and the people who are visiting ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, were instantly penetrated by him.
It's a pity that he only saw the creation process of this top art piece and the amazing talent of Botticelli, but he didn't discover any hidden secrets.
The only discovery is that Botticelli's Latin signature is hidden in the wings of Fengshen. This discovery has no meaning.
Because everyone in the world knows that this "The Birth of Venus" is the pinnacle of Botticelli's maturity and is one of his two most famous paintings.
Having found nothing, Ye Tian could only retract his sight, end the perspective, and continue his professional and accurate explanation.
"Venus under Botticelli's brush is obviously influenced by the image of Venus in ancient Greek sculptures. From posture to gesture, there are traces of imitating Venus Capitoline.
This kind of Venus lacks the bodybuilding and elegance of a classical statue. It is precisely this kind of shape and character that has actually become Botticelli’s unique artistic style,..."
