Chapter 410: endless good news
With the depth of the endoscope probe, the interior of the Portland vase clearly appeared on the display.
The font engraved on the inner wall of the bottle appeared. Seeing this group of numbers, several appraisal experts standing beside Ye Tian immediately exclaimed.
"Wow! There seem to be words on the inner wall, it's a set of numbers!"
"A set of numbers? And on the inner wall! Is this a Portland vase imitation at the end of the 18th century? Only those vases are engraved on the inner wall to prevent counterfeiting. If it is true, then this is indeed a treasure! "
Although I didn't see the monitoring screen clearly, but heard the lettering on the inner wall of the bottle, the European porcelain experts present immediately gave a reaction and guessed it!
The eyes of many appraisal experts suddenly brightened, staring closely at the Portland vase on the table, staring at the endoscope monitor held by Ye Tian, everyone's eyes were extremely hot!
These are all senior professionals in the antiques industry. They naturally understand the Portland vases, which have an important position in the history of Western art, and also understand the value of the original Portland vase replicas.
They all understand that what the European porcelain expert said is correct. If this is one of the earliest copies, it really deserves the title Zhongbao!
Only Jason was still at a loss at the scene, and still did not understand the value of this vase!
Of course, including Walker and Raymond, they are the same.
But they just glanced at the Portland vase enviously, and immediately stared at the people around the table vigilantly, raising their guard and maintaining order!
Hear the song and know the elegance! Sure enough, there are so many experts!
Ye Tian smiled softly, pointed the endoscope probe at the set of numbers with his right hand, and showed it clearly.
Then, he smiled and said:
"Everyone read that right. There are indeed words on the inner wall of the bottle. It is engraved with ‘1790, no.1’, which can be seen through the endoscope, very clear.
After checking the information and comparing and studying this vase carefully, I can say with certainty that this is the first Portland vase successfully copied by Wakewood in 1790!
Except for the broken original of the British Museum, this is the oldest Portland vase with great artistic and market value, and it is a worthy treasure! "
Before the words were over, the restaurant immediately boiled, and exclamations rang one after another.
"Oh my God! This turned out to be the first copy of Wakewood. It's too precious! I thought it was in England, but I didn't expect it to appear here! It's incredible!"
"If Steven is right, then this is definitely a treasure, and its value will not be much lower than that of Pollock's paintings. This vase is too important! It is invaluable!"
Although everyone was very excited, no one rushed forward, trying to witness the content on the monitor for the first time and interrupt Ye Tian's work.
With live ammunition and eye-catching Walker and Raymond, it is enough for everyone to keep their heads clear, restrain their inner excitement, and wait for their turn to come forward and check!
However, there were still people who couldn't bear curiosity, standing still and asking loudly:
"Steven, let's announce more details, we want to know more!"
Ye Tian would naturally not object to this request, and immediately said with a smile:
"No problem, let me tell you about it. The shape, specifications, craftsmanship, decorative patterns, etc. of this vase are exactly the same as the original broken piece in the British Museum. It is a perfect replica.
It says ‘wedgwood’ in floral English on its bottom foot, not ‘wedgwood-e-in-engnd’ after the nineteenth century, which undoubtedly shows the approximate age of its production,..."
Ye Tian gave a detailed introduction to this vase and explained his identification basis.
And cheeky, stealing some relevant information found on the website for his own, expounded it here, saying it is blunt, without any blushing!
While expounding these, he was not idle, showing more and clearer pictures to everyone.
After looking at the internal situation with an endoscope, he changed to a camera with a crank and reached into the vase to take a set of high-definition images and display them on the laptop.
These pictures are very clear, allowing everyone on the scene to see clearly!
Three minutes later, Ye Tian pulled the camera out of the vase and finished his explanation.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the above is my appraisal of this Portland vase. As for my judgment, I am very sure that it is absolutely accurate!
Next, you can appraise and appreciate this vase. I believe it will bring you a beautiful experience and a surprise for you, making your trip worthwhile!
There may be people who hold different appraisal opinions, and I am very willing to listen, but I still believe in my judgment and will never waver or change in the slightest! "
Having said this, Ye Tian left behind the endoscope and other equipment, as well as the laptop, and took a few steps back to let the experts who had been waiting for it and impatient to come forward to appreciate and appraise!
At the forefront, a European porcelain expert and a craftsmanship appraisal expert.
"It's so beautiful! This is the great Roman art!"
"No wonder it took three years to complete the copy! It's exactly the same as the original, perfect!"
The beautiful words came out from the dining table quickly, and it made people feel comfortable to listen to.
"Steven, you guys are so lucky! To find such a heavyweight antique in Corridor 127 and easily put it in the bag is such an enviable luck!
For this Portland vase, this is also luck. If it weren't for you to discover, this precious treasure might be buried forever, and there will never be a day before! It will even be ruined by people inadvertently! "
Robinson said with emotion, his eyes full of envy, there is no way to hide it!
The others are the same. They are all looking at Ye Tian and the Portland vase on the table. Many people's eyes are red with envy! Secretly lamented the injustice of fate!
Can you not envy it? This kind of super leak of top antique works of art, others may not be able to run into it once in a lifetime, so whether it is still a virtue from the ancestors!
But for the guy Steven, this kind of super big miss is too easy, one after another, almost never interrupted!
In just a few months, how many similar leaks he has picked up! It's almost impossible to count! This unbelievable luck can definitely make everyone jealous to death!
Ye Tian unceremoniously accepted all the enviable eyes from these professionals, and enjoyed it very much!
But he was not dizzy about this, his thinking was still very clear.
As soon as Robinson finished speaking, he immediately said with sympathy:
"That's right, I was indeed lucky to have this Portland vase in my hands, but it was also the luck of this vase. This is the best of both worlds.
At that time, there were four or five Portland vases placed together, and the stall owner didn't pay much attention to it. It was because of my discovery that this vase was able to be re-released so that the pearl would not be dusted or even completely destroyed!
Maybe the buddy is the savior of the heavyweight antique art, responsible for picking up the leaks! Save them from the sea of bitterness, re-bloom, show their due charm, and be appreciated by the world! "
The first half of this sentence sounds very reasonable, but the second half is a bit short!
Co-authoring the heavyweight antique artworks that have not been discovered should belong to you. You will be robbed of you and you will make a fortune. Others can only regret to jump into the sea!
What kind of **** logic is this? Is there any humanity?
Many appraisal experts rolled their eyes and murmured inwardly, completely speechless!
The visit continues, and the praise is still there.
Because of Ye Tian's safety considerations, there are only two people who come to admire the Portland vase every time, and most of the rest are idle.
Everyone is not much interested in paying attention to the relatively ordinary antique artworks, and they all turned their attention to the other two treasures of Ye Tian, the two paintings that Jason was holding!
"Steven, show these two paintings, let's enjoy them!"
Simon, the head of the Impressionist and Modern Art Department, said his eyes were full of expectation and excitement.
"It's true, Steven, show me these two paintings, we can't wait! I want to see the charm of top art!
As far as I know, the one in the painting tube should be Pollock's painting, so whose work is the one covered with white cloth? You seem to have never revealed any news! "
Robinson continued, acting very curiously.
At this time, his eyes were extremely bright, staring at the two paintings in Jason's hands, his eyelids were not blinking!
But it is a pity that he can see nothing except the painting tube and the frame!
In order to maintain the mystery and create more surprises, Ye Tian covered a white cloth on Guayasamin's paintings, blocking everyone's sight! Let everyone just watch and worry!
It should continue to be shown, time is limited!
"Okay! Guys, since everyone can't wait, then I will show you the next artwork! Let's start with a small size!"
Ye Tian smiled and nodded and said, the stunning continues!
Later, he took Guayasamin's painting from Jason, went to the other end of the dining table, removed the white cloth covered on it, and placed it on the dining table for everyone to enjoy.
Soon after, he began to explain the painting.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this oil painting of Latin American art style was created by Guayasamin, a national treasure painter in Latin America. It is a masterpiece of magical realism painting! It has extraordinary artistic value!
All of you present are top professionals, about Guayasamin! No more introductions, right? What I can tell you is that this is Guayasamin’s painting at its peak. Please look here, everyone..."
At the same time as the introduction, Ye Tian took out the high-powered magnifying glass and began to show everyone Guayasamin's invisible signature, proving the origin of this painting!
At this time, the restaurant has already become a sensation again!
"God! It turned out to be Guayasamin's magical realism painting! Every oil painting in his peak period is a national treasure of Latin American countries! How could it appear in the United States?"
"Picasso in the Western Hemisphere, Marquez with a paintbrush! We were so lucky to be able to encounter his works here~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and it is the most peak period work!"
We must win the auction right for this painting. This year's autumn auction of Latin American art will be the finale of the auction! Guayasamin is definitely the most outstanding representative of Latin American painting art! "
Exclamations continued, resounding throughout the apartment.
Especially the director of the Latin American Art Department, and the two Latin American art appraisal experts, have been so excited that they are almost crazy, celebrating with joy, and have long forgotten!
Seeing everyone's performance, Ye Tian couldn't help laughing, very brilliant!
He clearly knows that this scene will be repeated later, and it will be more exaggerated and more exciting!
When Pollock's new paintings are shown in front of everyone, the whole apartment will be completely overwhelmed by cheers!
Of course, this is not to say that Pollock has higher artistic achievements than Guayasamin, just because this is New York.
Old beauty recognizes Pollock! Nothing!
