Treasure Hunt all over the World

"Compared with other famous sculptures of the Hellenistic period, the concept of the Statue of Victory is very novel. Its base is designed as the bow of a warship. The Goddess of Victory falls on the bow as if it had fallen from the sky.

Under the guidance of the goddess of victory, the fleet rushed forward through the wind and waves. The whole concept not only expressed the background of naval battle, but also conveyed the theme of victory, with a very obvious romantic art style.

The dynamic structure of the statue is very perfect and vivid, and the carving skills are superb. The form has turned to secularization, dramatization and personification of the image, and is characterized by conveying human psychology and passionate power...."

Ye Tianzhe explained this famous sculpture to all the visitors on the scene. It was still very professional and vivid, and the clear voice resounded through the Samothrace stairs.

At this time, the important staircase from the first floor to the second floor of the Denong Pavilion has been blocked by dozens of hundreds of visitors.

The stairs in the upper and lower directions were full of visitors listening to Ye Tian's explanation. Everyone had an expression of intoxication and would not leave at all.

Those tourists who have finished their visit on the second floor and are going to return to the first floor can only stop at the stairway; the tourists who want to visit the second floor on the first floor are also blocked at the stairway and cannot go up!

They had only two choices, either listen to Ye Tian's explanation here, wait for the crowd to disperse, and then go upstairs or downstairs, or just take a detour.

The staff of the Louvre, who was also on the scene, had no choice but to smile reluctantly when seeing this situation. There was no other way.

Fortunately, there is only a sculpture of the Statue of Victory on the stairs of Samothrace. Even if Ye Tian explained it very carefully, it would not last long.

After five or six minutes, Ye Tian finished the explanation and ended the morning tour.

Unsurprisingly, when his voice fell, thunderous applause erupted immediately from all the visitors on the scene.

Amidst this enthusiastic applause, Ye Tian and Betty walked through the crowd on the stairs under the **** of Matisse and came to the lobby on the first floor of the Denon Hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, Ye Tian saw several familiar faces, Martinez, the curator of the Louvre Museum, and several high-level and famous experts in antique art appraisal at the Louvre.

"Good noon, Steven, welcome to France and welcome to visit the Louvre Museum. Your explanation is really professional. It is the best explanation I have ever heard. It is breathtaking!

It seems that the legend is right, you guy is an all-rounder in the field of antique art! Nothing you don’t understand, how about it, are you interested in being a professional commentator at the Louvre? "

With that, Martinez stepped forward and shook hands with Ye Tian, ​​with a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

Ye Tian stretched out his right hand and shook the old friend, then smiled and said:

"Good noon, Martinez, nice to meet you, I said in Antwerp before that we will meet again soon, as expected, only a few days have passed.

The Louvre is amazing! The artworks displayed here are simply beautiful and outstanding! Worthy of being the first of the world's museums, here is a sea of ​​art.

I like the Louvre, and even want to live here often, carefully admire every piece of art here, and swim in the ocean of art, but it's just a dream.

During the visit, I explained the artworks to Betty and the others. I didn’t expect it to attract so many visitors. It’s a great honor for everyone!

It is not impossible for me to come to the Louvre to be a professional commentator. As long as the Louvre is paid with top art works, I am very happy to accept this new profession! "

"Rewarded by top art? You guys dare to think, as always greedy! Let's forget it, we can't afford you such a great **** at the Louvre! I believe there is no museum that can afford it. !"

Martinez said grimly, eyes full of fear.

Next, Ye Tian greeted several other Louvre executives and antique art appraisal experts, and they were very decent.

After shaking hands one by one, Ye Tian turned to Martinez and asked in a low voice with a smile:

"Martinez, have you made a decision? Do you accept my terms to exchange Chinese antique works of art from the collections of the Louvre and the Guimet Museum for those jewelry that once belonged to Queen Mary?

To be honest, I am very looking forward to hearing the good news, and I am also looking forward to walking into the warehouses of the Louvre and the Guimet Museum and seeing the Chinese antique artworks stored in the warehouses of the two museums.

As far as I know, whether the Louvre or the Guimet Asian Art Museum, the Chinese antique artworks on display are only a small part of the collection, and most of the antique artworks are not seen all year round.

Instead of letting those valuable Chinese antique artworks that represent ancient civilizations pick up ashes in the warehouse and gradually rot and break, why don't you think about it, accept my terms and exchange them with me! "

Hearing this, Martinez fell silent immediately, a slightly moved expression flashing in his eyes.

After pondering for a while, he said helplessly:

"Steven, I might as well tell you here. As far as I am concerned, I am more inclined to accept your terms and exchange them with you in exchange for those top jewellery closely related to the French Revolution.

You are right. Most of the Chinese antique artworks in the Louvre Museum have no chance to be displayed publicly. Some antique artworks have even been kept in the warehouse for more than 100 years and have never been exhibited!

Let them be buried in the warehouse with dust and a little bit of damage and rot, it is indeed better to take them out for exchange, of course, there is also a premise here, that is, you guys can't open mouths and ask for prices!

Unfortunately, this is not something I can decide in one word. The biggest resistance to exchange comes from the Jigme Museum, especially the treasure of the Jigme Museum, the bronze elephant statue! "

"Martinez, it is already a pleasant surprise that you can agree to exchange. As for the Guimet Museum, it is normal to have resistance, which is all within my expectations!

If the exchange is successfully completed, you don't have to think about it. The jewellery that once belonged to Queen Mary will be on public display in the Louvre in the future, and the Guimet Museum will not get anything.

In this case, how could the Jigme Museum be happy? Even if the Guimet Museum is a branch of the Louvre, it is not willing to suffer from this dumb loss. This is human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it!

To break this deadlock, it depends on what you do at the Louvre. I believe you will definitely find a solution to the problem, such as sending a few top antique artworks to the Guimet Museum.

I hope you will make your decision as soon as possible. If not, you will probably be ahead of the Fontainebleau Palace. To be honest, I am also very interested in the antique Chinese artworks from the Old Summer Palace in the Fontainebleau Palace! "

Ye Tian said with a chuckle, and then chanted a tight curse to Martinez and other Louvre officials.

Hearing this, many people in the Louvre on the scene rolled their eyes irritably, and their expressions were a little nervous.

Martinez naturally did the same, and said helplessly:

"Steven, you guys are so greedy, you made it clear to take advantage of the fire! We had to stretch out our heads and be slapped by you guys. It's really wrong!

We will discuss this matter as soon as possible and make a decision as soon as possible. The significance of those pieces of jewellery is so special that we at the Louvre absolutely do not want to miss it or be intercepted by others.

Okay, let's not talk about it, where are you going next? Are you continuing to visit the Louvre? Or leave the museum and return to the hotel? Or find a restaurant nearby for lunch? "

"We are going to have a meal in the lounge area of ​​the Louvre~www.ltnovel.com~ and then we will visit, the most famous gallery of the Louvre hasn't been visited yet, so why are we willing to leave!

Martinez, this is your place. You must know everything about the Louvre. Are there any good restaurants? Recommend one to us! "

Ye Tian said with a light smile, his expression was very relaxed.

As soon as the voice fell, Martinez continued:

"You are going to dine at the Louvre, that would be great. There are indeed a few very good restaurants here. Let me take you over and enjoy a French lunch!

It is a guest from afar, and there is a possibility of a transaction between us. This lunch is ours, and during lunch time, we can just talk about this transaction again!

In addition, we would also like to hear your opinion on the appraisal of antique art. The art explanation that you just heard is really wonderful! "

Afterwards, several high-level Louvre officials took Ye Tian and the others to the rest area, ready to have lunch!
