Chapter 227: Masterpieces of Post-Impressionism
When David and the others checked the situation of the wall, Ye Tian moved the small Baroque table over and prepared to remove the oil paper wrapped in oil painting on the table.
Then he took out two more white gloves, handed them to David, and put on one himself.
The performance of the other three is over, and the highlight can begin!
"Ok! David, let's open these oiled papers and see what is wrapped underneath. Surprise or disappointment. I hope it will be a huge surprise, it will be perfect!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, and walked to the open wall.
"Judging from the preservation of these two collections, they are definitely of high value. Maybe it will be a major discovery. It is also possible to shock the world!"
David responded excitedly, he was full of confidence in these two collections.
If it is not a valuable item, it will never be kept so secretly!
"Honey! I'm too nervous to watch it!"
Betty put her hands on her chest and whispered to Jennifer beside her, her expression nervous and expectant.
"Me too! This scene is so exciting! I shudder at the thought of the possibility of participating in history!"
The black beauty's expression is even more exaggerated, even a little eager, ready to rush to get started personally.
Ye Tian walked to the wall, suppressed his excitement, and cautiously raised his hand to hold the edge of the first collection, took it out, and placed it on the small baroque table.
During this period, David did not intervene, this is the right of the owner.
Ye Tian did not continue to take out another collection, but planned to open this one first, do a simple appraisal, then take out the second one, continue appraisal, determine the general information of the collection, and finally display it together.
"David, let's start, Betty, give close-ups"
"Ok!"
The two responded in unison excitedly, and immediately began to move.
This collection is of medium size, excluding the outline of the frame, about 65*80 size, wrapped with thick layers of yellow oil paper, tied with white ribbon.
The whole is airtight, except for the outline, no more information can be seen.
This kind of measure can effectively avoid moisture erosion and protect the works inside.
Ye Tian used scissors to gently cut the two white ribbons, and then began to disassemble the oil paper, while David held on to the edge of the frame to prevent it from accidentally falling.
Several layers of oiled paper were quickly opened, and the first thing that was exposed was a very delicate and elegant solid wood picture frame edge.
"It must be an oil painting, and it's not cheap!"
Upon seeing the frame at the first glance, David immediately said firmly, and Betty and Jennifer nodded in agreement.
Everyone has basic artistic appreciation, especially oil painting. This is the most important category of Western art. Everyone has seen a lot from childhood to most of them, and naturally they can immediately make a judgment.
"Of course it's an oil painting! And it's a top-notch work. The shocking moment has arrived!"
Ye Tian said to himself, very proud.
Without any pause, he completely removed the oil paper in four or five seconds, put the oil painting on the table, and presented it completely before everyone's eyes and under the camera lens.
In an instant, there was silence in the study.
Betty and they all looked at this oil painting dumbfounded, full of incredible and crazy colors!
The same is true for Ye Tian, although he has seen through many times, understands every detail of the painting, and even knows the creation process, shoveling several times, the order of painting, the canvas material and so on.
However, when this top oil painting was clearly presented in front of his eyes, placed on the table, and reappeared in his own hands, he was still excited and almost cheered, even crazy about it!
This is the unparalleled appeal of art!
No matter when, no matter how many times I have appreciated it, every time I see you again, it is still so shocking!
The content of the oil painting is not complicated, it can be seen clearly at a glance, and it can make people instantly intoxicated!
What is shown on the canvas is a beautiful and charming natural scene.
In the middle of the painting, a tall fir tree grows slightly tilted to the right, dividing the picture into two halves, looking like it is swaying with the wind, with a bit of agility.
In the distance of the green grass, there is a viaduct, which slopes slightly downwards from left to right. In order to balance the picture, the artist drew a group of fir trees on the left with straight and cold lines!
The lower part of the painting is a hilly area, mostly light gray and peach red; different shades of green are used to depict pine trees; orange and gray on the roof, and sky blue in the small pond.
On the plain, the painter used different shades of green and orange to show the house, vegetable field and harvested wheat field.
The upper part of the painting, the crown of the fir tree, is a majestic mountain.
The left side of the mountain is light red and looks bare, and the right side is a very cold blue. There should be dense forest.
Above is a warm blue sky with some faint white clouds floating.
Looking at this painting, everyone will feel that these sceneries do exist under the bright sunshine, with a kind of beauty in order.
The outline of the painting appears to be fragmented and loose, with colors floating on the object to maintain its own characteristics independent of the object.
The painter's brushstrokes here are like a soloist in an orchestra. Each brushstroke fits in the painting according to its own function, but it is subject to the harmony of the whole.
The study is still very quiet, everyone is drunk admiring this masterpiece.
At the same time, the shocking colors in Betty and their eyes are getting stronger.
They recognized this oil painting a long time ago, it is a famous work, many people have seen it in art appreciation class, and even discussed it!
In the lower right corner of the oil painting, they also saw the artist's signature. What a dazzling and brilliant name!
Ye Tian was the first to wake up. He tapped on the table lightly and said with a smile:
"Two beauties, David, wake up, we should continue, there is one collection that hasn't been revealed yet. When that collection is back, let's enjoy it again!"
When the sound came out, the other three woke up immediately, followed by a burst of crazy praise and exclamation.
"Oh my God! It's so beautiful! It's so shocking! Paul Cezanne's "Mount Saint Victor", one of the famous masterpieces of Post-Impressionism, is this authentic?
Isn't this painting in the hands of a French private collector? How could it appear in the United States? And in such a hidden wall, it is simply a fantasy! "
David held his head and said loudly, with an incredible look in his eyes.
"Yes! This is indeed Paul Cezanne's "Mount Saint Victor". According to my preliminary assessment of this painting, this is the authentic product, and it comes from the creation of Paul Cezanne around 1890.
Whether it is the painting style, the delicate brushwork, or the symphony-like, rich and harmonious color changes, it perfectly illustrates that this is the masterpiece of Paul Cezanne.
The signature of the painter and the age of the canvas and frame also indicate its identity. It is indeed from 1890, which is similar to several Paul Cezanne works of the same period collected by the Metropolitan Museum.
As for why it appeared in the United States, we don’t know, but don’t forget, the former owner of this apartment is a famous French painter. Perhaps this is his personal collection! "
Ye Tian replied with a smile and gave a more detailed explanation, with an unusually firm tone.
His reason for making these judgments is that in addition to his increasingly strong art appreciation ability and knowledge, there is also an extremely authoritative conclusion of supernatural power appraisal!
The red light emitted by this oil painting and the charming halo of nearly 20 layers undoubtedly explain everything!
"I can't believe it! This is definitely a shocking discovery, and it will definitely shake the entire oil painting collection world!"
David sighed, his eyes were full of shock and endless envy.
What a great wealth this is! Why does God only pity Steven? The preference is a bit crazy!
He already believed in Ye Tian's appraisal conclusion. In addition to his familiarity with the painting, he also trusted Ye Tian's sharp eyes.
Without this keen discernment, Stei Diploma will continue to make a fortune!
"Wow! It's so beautiful! Compared to the high-definition pictures in the art appreciation class, the real thing is many times more beautiful!"
Betty kept sighing and admiring, keeping her eyes fixed on this oil painting, she was not willing to look away.
"My dear! You are right, this is a post-impressionist oil painting. The strong layering and color contrast cannot be expressed by high-resolution pictures. If you want to truly appreciate its beauty, you can only look at the real thing!"
"Steven! How much is such a famous oil painting worth? It must be a sky-high price, right?"
After the shock, Jennifer asked another question that everyone cares about.
Ye Tian chuckled softly and said with certainty:
"It must be a sky-high price! This painting is worth tens of millions of dollars, or hundreds of millions of dollars, and I can't give an accurate answer, but I am sure that it will never be less than 30 million dollars.
Paul Cezanne's "The Card Player" once sold for 500 million US dollars. This was the first two years. Now the market for top oil paintings has risen again and the price is even higher!
This oil painting may not cost 500 million, but its artistic charm is by no means half lower than that of "The Card Player". Its status in the history of painting will be even higher! "
In the process of speaking, the other three were already stunned.
Everyone looked at Ye Tian dumbfounded, his eyes flying out!
500 million dollars! Betty and the others had only this number left in their minds, there was nothing else ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ Apart from ecstasy, Ye Tian couldn't help but feel a little grateful.
Fortunately, there was no live broadcast, otherwise I don’t know how many people were stunned!
If that's the case, don't even think about going out later, the door of the apartment will definitely be surrounded by crazy people!
It is time to excavate the next collection. It will be another super shock bomb, which will definitely make Betty and the others stunned again.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian suddenly laughed and said loudly:
"There are still treasures to discover! Let's continue!"
