Chapter 1766: Crazy preview

"Da Vinci's masterpiece, "Lisa Gladini" auction preview will begin tomorrow, and only this day, preview location: Vatican Museum"

As this brief news appeared on the Internet and was quickly reposted by other news media, it spread across the world like the wind, and immediately attracted countless attention.

Especially in the field of antique art collections and art auctions, this news is like a tsunami, madness swept almost everywhere, making everyone crazy.

When the sun rises again and a new day comes, the Vatican Museums also ushered in a very lively day.

Countless antique art appraisal experts, art lovers, critics, top collectors, art brokers, auction house professionals, and many high-level people in famous museums, etc.

Of course, there are many news media reporters who like to join in the fun.

All these people came from all over the world overnight, and the tide generally poured into Rome and into the Vatican, and there was a steady stream of people, and more people were on their way to Rome.

Leonardo da Vinci’s "Lisa Gladini" is said to be a masterpiece with no less artistry than "Mona Lisa". Its emergence has also solved many mysteries in art history.

This is the first public exhibition of "Lisa Gladini", and it is only a one-day auction preview. God knows who this priceless treasure will eventually fall into, and whether it will be publicly displayed in the future.

For most people, this auction preview is likely to be the only opportunity in their life to appreciate "Lisa Gladini" up close, and it is absolutely not to be missed.

Nearly nine o'clock in the morning, the Vatican Museum has not yet opened, but in front of the museum and in St. Peter's Square, there are already crowded and lively.

At the entrance of the museum, there are already several lines of visitors waiting to enter the museum, extending from the entrance of the museum, through St. Peter’s Square, and even to Rome.

Without exception, the topic center of everyone in these teams is the "Lisa Gladini" that is about to meet with the public for the first time, the masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci.

"God! There are too many people waiting in line to visit the museum, but the Vatican Museums are only open until 1:30 noon. Can it be our turn to visit "Lisa Gladini"? It would be nice if we could extend the opening hours! "

"It's probably no show. I heard someone say that the Vatican Museum will not extend its opening hours. The afternoon is the time for the super-rich and top collectors to see the goods, and it is not open to the public.

This means that if we want to enjoy "Lisa Graardini" up close, we can only pray for God's blessing so that we can enter the Vatican Museum as soon as possible."

Just amidst people's discussions, nine o'clock in the morning has quietly arrived.

The Vatican Museum opened on time and began to accept tourists.

The first wave of tourists who entered the museum through ticket inspections, as soon as they entered the museum, they immediately looked like a group of wild horses. According to the signs in the museum, one by one spread their legs and went straight to the second floor. The scene was magnificent!

There is no other reason for this, because the pre-exhibition hall of "Lisa Gladini" is on the second floor.

It was a temporary independent exhibition hall, and there was only one painting of Lisa Gladini.

Seeing these almost crazy visitors running wild, the staff of the Vatican Museum were shocked and stunned.

Even Ye Tian, ​​who had just finished setting up the exhibition and was still in the museum, felt shocked, quite a bit eye-opening.

When many visitors rushed to the entrance of the exhibition hall on the second floor of the museum, they were stopped by the security personnel at the entrance and had to line up again to enter the exhibition hall in batches orderly.

When they finally entered the exhibition hall, they found that there were more security personnel in the exhibition hall than the visitors, and "Lisa Gladini" was covered with a strong and unusually bulletproof glass cover, which was not too close.

But at any rate, I can appreciate this masterpiece by Leonardo up close, so these visitors have no time to worry about it, so they hurried forward and began to appreciate this "Lisa Gladini".

At the same time, Ye Tian and his party walked into other exhibition halls to appreciate the antique artworks displayed in those exhibition halls.

Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye it is just over one noon, and it is less than ten minutes before the Vatican Museum closes.

However, the entrance of the pre-exhibition hall is still full of tourists waiting to enter and visit, including many professionals, collectors and art lovers who come from all over the world.

Seeing that the closing time is approaching, I have traveled all the way to the Vatican, but it is very likely that I will not see "Lisa Gladini" at all. These people can't help but feel a little anxious.

Compared with before, the entrance of the exhibition hall has also become a lot noisy. People are full of anxious faces, their eyes are full of disappointment, and there are constant discussions on the spot, one after another!

Seeing this situation, the managers of the Vatican Museums felt a little headache, and their expressions became more serious. For a while, they didn't know how to respond.

At this moment, Ye Tian led Betty and the others suddenly appeared from the front stairs and walked over to the exhibition hall.

The moment they saw Ye Tian and the others, the eyes of many people at the entrance of the exhibition hall brightened, and hope reignited in their eyes.

Immediately afterwards, someone on the scene said loudly:

"Steven, it's half past one. It's the closing time of the Vatican Museums, can you ask the museum to extend the preview time so that everyone can go in and enjoy "Lisa Gladini"

I came from Los Angeles overnight, just for "Lisa Gladini". I believe that there are still many tourists like me. You can't let everyone go for nothing, right? That would be too unkind! "

The speaker is a collector from Los Angeles, USA. Ye Tian also met this guy during the New York spring auction season before, which is a fate.

As soon as this voice fell, other tourists on the scene immediately responded.

Everyone's demands are the same. They all want to appreciate the masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci, "Lisa Gladini" in the Progress Hall.

Especially those who came to the Vatican all the way to appreciate this oil painting, the mood to enter the exhibition hall is even more urgent.

Ye Tian did not respond immediately, but stopped, and scanned the visitors who were waiting to enter the exhibition hall and looking at him with expectation.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his hands and gently pressed it down to signal everyone to be quiet.

When the noise at the scene subsided slightly, he immediately smiled and said loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, good noon, I’m Steven. I’m very happy to see you all here. It’s a great honor for everyone to come to see the preview of this auction and enjoy "Lisa Gladini".

I understand everyone’s feelings very well, but today’s preview must end at 1:30 noon, and the auction will be held in the evening. I want to allow enough time for the bidders to appreciate it.

Although I can't meet everyone's request to enter the exhibition hall to appreciate "Lisa Gladini", but I can work around it, and it can also meet everyone's requirements, so that everyone will not be disappointed.

At tonight’s auction, I will ask the successful bidders to extend the public exhibition appropriately if circumstances permit, so as to satisfy everyone’s desire to appreciate this oil painting.

Regardless of whether the super-rich or top collector bid successfully tonight, I believe he will not refuse this proposal. As for the Vatican Museums, he will certainly not refuse such a good thing."

Before the words were over, there was already warm applause.

"Papa Papa"

Everyone on the scene, whether they like Ye Tian or not, gave him their own applause at this time.

Along with enthusiastic applause, there were bursts of applause.

"Steven, good job, we look forward to your good news!"

"Awesome! Steven, this time we finally did not come in vain"

Amidst the cheers, Ye Tian smiled and nodded gently to everyone on the scene, and then led Betty and the others into the exhibition hall.

Outside the museum, a luxury convoy drove up quickly along the Concorde Avenue and stopped firmly on the edge of St. Peter's Square.

As the doors of the luxury cars in the fleet opened, some Italians and even all Europeans were very familiar with the super-rich and top collectors, stepping down from those luxury cars and standing on the edge of the square.

In the next moment, there was a commotion in St. Peter's Square. All the tourists near the border of the country turned their heads to look at the entrance of the square and talked enthusiastically.

"Look! That's Maria, the richest man in Italy and one of the richest women in the world~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Rolls-Royce behind her got up and down. It was Berlusconi, the former prime minister of Italy. , Also the former richest man!"

"There are also Bernard, the richest man in France, Fried, the top German collector, and Dimitris, the top Greek collector, my goodness! What kind of private auction is this, the lineup is really exaggerated!"

Amidst the cries of exclamation, the super-rich and top collectors who have just gotten out of the car have already walked into St. Peter's Square under the **** of bodyguards and the Vatican police.

At this time, although they behaved very politely, they greeted each other with a smile, as if they were meeting with old friends.

However, in the eyes of each of them, the flames of battle were burning, and there was an aura of giving up to me.

"Steven, Maria and Berlusconi have arrived. They have just entered St. Peter's Square and are walking towards the museum."

Cole's voice came through the headset, announcing the situation outside.

Upon hearing the announcement, Ye Tian immediately burst into a bright smile.
