Chapter 2791: Crazy guess
, The fastest update of the latest chapters in the world of treasure hunt!
The scene was completely quiet, everyone was listening to these ancient and wonderful stories and was deeply attracted by them!
Ye Tian, who was under the spotlight, still talked eloquently, and continued his performance.
"In 1496, Giovanni Medici, the beautiful man of the Florence Medici family, came to Forli to visit Catalina as the ambassador of Florence. The two fell in love at first sight and became married.
The combination of the two of them has been recognized by all parties, including the children of Ludovic and Catalina. This marriage can be regarded as a political marriage between the Milan Sforza family and the Florence Medici family!
Not long after his marriage, Louis XII began to attack Italy, and soon conquered Milan, driving away Ludovic, as a member of the Sforza family, Catalina led his army to fight the French.
At that time, Italy was not unified. It was composed of city-states of varying sizes. Moreover, these city-states were fighting in their own way and could not resist the French attack. Many of them even chose to surrender.
Only Catalina, after many of her subordinates surrendered and Foley and Imola fell into the hands of the French one after another, still led a few of her subordinates to stay in the isolated city and resist the French attack stubbornly.
Catalina's actions against the French aggressors alone won her a huge reputation and won the respect and support of almost all Italians. People called her an Italian heroine and sang her everywhere.
Many Italian poets at that time described and praised Catalina's heroic deeds in their works. The historian Machiavelli recorded many such poems, which are still circulating today! "
"Papa Papa"
There was a burst of warm applause at the scene, interrupting Ye Tian's performance.
It was the Italians like Giovanni who applauded. Their legendary heroines in their own country gave a warm victory, and they also sent waves of cheers. Everyone is proud!
The situation before the live broadcast is also the same. Many Italians who are still watching the live broadcast are applauding and cheering loudly~www.wuxiaspot.com~Welfare] Pay attention to the public.. No. [Book Friends Base Camp], read books every day and get cash/ Point coins!
When the scene became quieter, Ye Tian's voice came out again!
"Due to the huge disparity in strength, after a few months of fighting alone, Catalina's trapped castle was broken by French cannons. She was also captured by the French and taken to Rome to be imprisoned.
Even if she was imprisoned, Katerina did not give up the struggle. Because the pope deprived Katerina of the power of the fief, during a correspondence, she tried to assassinate the pope with poison.
Of course, this assassination was not successful. The poison that Katerina had trapped in the letter was discovered by the Pope's guards, and the Pope escaped. In the history books, the record of this assassination is not clear!
It wasn't until 1501, after paying a huge ransom, that Catalina was released, and then returned to her third husband's hometown, Florence, where her children were waiting for her.
After returning to Florence, Catalina calmed down until she died of pneumonia in 1509! The "Katerina" in the Uffizi Gallery was painted during this period!
What I didn't expect was that before that, Leonardo da Vinci painted a portrait of Catalina, and it was hidden here, but this is normal, after all, Catalina is a member of the Sforza family!
Because of Katerina's special status, her status in the Sforza family has always been very high. Even though she has been married several times, she has always maintained close contact with the Sforza family and supported each other politically and militaryly!
From this point of view, it is normal for Leonardo da Vinci, a court painter in Milan, to paint a personal portrait of Catalina. It was only because of the French attack that the painting was hidden.
By extension, the personal portraits created by Leonardo da Vinci for members of the Sforza family are likely to be more than this "Katerina", and there must be portraits of other family members, such as Ludovic Sforza!
Ludovic is Da Vinci’s biggest sponsor and supporter, and also his best friend. It is reasonable, Da Vinci should also create a personal portrait for Ludovic to commemorate this deep friendship.
In addition, Ludovic's wife, two sons, and several daughters, as well as other members of the Sforza family, will each also have a personal portrait created by Leonardo? This possibility seems very high!
When the French attacked Milan, where would Ludovic and Leonardo hide these personal portraits without taking away these extraneous objects? Are they just the few oil paintings in this box? "
With that said, Ye Tian stretched out his hand to point at the several oil paintings in the wooden box in front of him, his eyes full of expectation.
Looking at David and the Bishop of Kent, as well as Giovanni and representatives of various parties, as well as the experts and scholars at the scene, they were all completely stunned by Ye Tian's words, one by one, stunned in place!
Not only them, but countless viewers in front of the live broadcast terminal, they also performed the same at this time. They were all stunned. Everyone's eyes were wide and round, and they almost flew out of their eye sockets!
The few oil paintings in this box are all works of Leonardo da Vinci, and they are all personal portraits of members of the Sforza family? how can that be? It's crazy!
Just as people were dumbfounded, Ye Tianqing's voice had been heard again and reached everyone's ears.
"Is this speculation correct? Just take out the oil paintings in this box and have a look, and the answer will be revealed! I hope that these oil paintings are all works of Leonardo, that would be perfect!"
Following his remarks, people were suddenly awakened!
In the next moment, the scene and countless live broadcasts immediately fry the pan, and everyone clasped their heads and exclaimed frantically!
"Oh my god! How is this possible? The oil paintings in the box are all Da Vinci's works. This idea is simply crazy!"
"Wow! If Steven's speculation is correct, then there is no doubt that this is definitely the greatest discovery in the history of Western art!"
Just as people exclaimed, Ye Tian has already begun to collect this priceless "Katerina".
He re-covered this top oil painting with linen, and then, with the assistance of David and the company's employees, put it in a large painting bag!
Seeing his actions, everyone on the live and live broadcasts was full of dismay, envy and even jealous to almost crazy!
However, no one at the scene stopped Ye Tian!
Compared with this Da Vinci painting that has already been released, everyone is more interested in knowing whether the other oil paintings in the box are Da Vinci's works.
If they are really da Vinci's works, they are definitely a great discovery!
As for the appreciation and research of this "Katerina", you can push it back. Anyway, there is still opportunity and time. This top oil painting by Leonardo will not fly with wings!
Under the attention of everyone~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ye Tian and David took out another oil painting from the box, and then began to disassemble it carefully!
A few minutes later, the several layers of moisture-proof tarpaulin and the inner linen wrapped around this oil painting were uncovered by Ye Tian one after another!
What immediately appeared in front of everyone was another personal portrait painted with the ‘fade method’. In the picture was an Italian man in his twenties! And the painting technique is extremely clever!
The moment they saw this personal portrait, everyone was stunned, their eyes full of madness!
The scene immediately fell silent, and there was no sound.
It wasn't until a few minutes later that a desperate murmur sounded on the scene, finally breaking the silence!
"God! I am not dazzled? This is a personal portrait of Ludovich's eldest son Maximilian, and more importantly, this is another da Vinci's work!
Is Steven's speculation true? The few oil paintings in this box are all personal portraits of members of the Sforza family? This is crazy! "
