Treasure Hunt all over the World

Because they were going to visit the famous Louvre Grand Gallery, Ye Tian and the others did not spend two or three hours on a lunch like the French tourists in the restaurant.

They finished their lunch in less than an hour and were the fastest customers in the entire restaurant.

Then they bid farewell to Martinez and others, and then left the restaurant next to the bedroom of Napoleon III and walked enthusiastically to the Louvre Gallery on the second floor of the Denon Pavilion.

The Denon Pavilion is named after Denon, the first curator of the Louvre. This collection displays almost all the most famous paintings of the Louvre, including the well-known "Mona Lisa" .

The large gallery on the second floor of the Denon Pavilion is a straight corridor of more than 450 meters long. On both sides of the corridor, there are countless top oil paintings in the history of Western art, mainly Italian paintings.

One of the three masters of the post-Renaissance, two other paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, "The Virgin of the Rocks" and "St. John the Baptist", are hung in this corridor.

As for another masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci, "Mona Lisa", in the special Mona Lisa hall, it is protected by several layers of strong bulletproof glass.

In the middle of the big gallery, there is a passage that leads directly to the Mona Lisa Hall. While visiting the big gallery, you can visit the "Mona Lisa" at any time.

In addition to many Italian paintings, the Louvre sometimes makes some adjustments, moving some famous paintings from the French Painting Gallery on the other side of the Mona Lisa Hall to a large gallery.

These famous paintings include "The Coronation Ceremony of Napoleon I", "Freedom to Lead the People", "The Oath of the Brothers of Horace", "The Raft of Medusa" and other brilliant top art works.

Because these top art works from Italy and France are famous in the history of Western art, the large gallery has become the most important art exhibition area in the Louvre.

No matter anyone, no matter the tourists from there, if you come to visit the Louvre, the big gallery must not be missed, let alone Ye Tian, ​​a top antique art appraisal expert!

While talking, Ye Tian and the others stepped up the Samothrace stairs again and walked to the large gallery on the second floor of the Denon Hall.

In the process of marching, Ye Tian also introduced the past and present life of the Great Gallery to Betty and the others.

"The Grand Gallery was originally a passage connecting the Louvre and the Tuileries. It was built at the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century by Henry IV, the founder of the Bourbon dynasty.

This is a large-scale famous promenade, which took 13 years to complete. It is the most spectacular part of the Louvre and the most spectacular art gallery in the world.

During the Second French Empire, the length of the Grand Gallery was shortened to two-thirds of its original length, which is what we are about to see. It is still breathtaking and shocking!

For example, Henry IV was a hunting freak. He once ran wildly in the galleries and hunted foxes. This shows how magnificent the Louvre Gallery is! ..."

In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian and the others had already passed the Samothrace stairs to the Louvre Gallery on the second floor of the Denon Hall.

It is lunch time at this time. Compared with the peak visits in the morning and afternoon, the number of visitors to the art exhibition area is much less, and most people go to the rest area to enjoy lunch.

Some visitors left the Louvre and went out to eat. After lunch, many people would return to the Louvre again. As long as the ticket stub was kept, there was no need to buy a second ticket.

The only trouble is that these visitors have to line up again and undergo another security check.

Of course, there are no shortage of visitors watching the flowers at the Louvre. They left after they came to the Louvre, and did not continue to stay here to appreciate the art.

What they are more interested in is probably the Pont des Arts next to the Louvre and on the Seine, where to hang a lock that symbolizes love may be more meaningful to them.

In addition, there is the Champs Elysées not far away, which can be said to be a place of pilgrimage for countless women, which is extremely attractive!

Just walked into the big gallery, and before everyone had time to appreciate the world's most famous art gallery, they saw a strange scene.

A little bit closer to the entrance of the big gallery, two men and a woman, three guys in their teens and twenties stood side by side. Everyone leaned forward and made a posture ready to start, with an expression of excitement.

Almost when Ye Tian saw these three guys, the girl standing in the middle yelled.

"Run! Whoever rushes to the finish line is the winner!"

Before the words were over, the three guys were already running like wild horses, holding hands, rushing out directly, and rushing towards the other end of the big gallery.

"Hahaha"

While striding wildly, these three guys were also laughing wildly, heartily and unrestrainedly!

Especially the laughter of the girl in the middle, like a silver bell, was crisp and pleasant to the ear, and it resounded through the entire Louvre gallery!

For the unrestrained behavior of these guys, the security personnel at the entrance of the big gallery had no choice but to look at each other with a bitter smile, and then immediately ran after them.

The other two security guards twenty to thirty meters ahead quickly moved to the middle of the large gallery, each opened their arms, staring attentively, preparing to intercept the three guys rushing!

Seeing this scene before her eyes, Betty immediately exclaimed in excitement.

"Wow! This is the famous'Running in the Big Gallery' right? I didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I entered the big gallery. It's really interesting!"

While exclaiming, Betty even showed an expression of eagerness, and seemed to be ready to run wild in this world's most famous art gallery!

Anderson, who was on the other side of Ye Tian, ​​and Matisse behind them, were all at a loss, and they didn't understand the meaning of the scene before them.

"Steven, what is'run in the big gallery"? Is there any allusion? Those guys are so bold that they dare to run wild in the big gallery of the Louvre.

If they accidentally knock down a sculpture or destroy a painting hanging on the wall, they should be prepared to bankrupt their family, maybe they will cry to death in the toilet! "

Anderson asked curiously, eyes full of puzzlement.

Ye Tian looked at the three guys who had been stopped by the security personnel, then smiled and said:

"'Running in the big gallery' is indeed an allusion. The first person who ran in the big gallery was the creator of the big gallery, King Henry IV of France, but he ran wild on horseback.

In the early 1960s, the famous French film director Truffaut, in his best love movie "Juul and Jim", filmed a scene of three people running wild on the bridge.

This classic love movie must be familiar to everyone, especially the heroine Catherine, who was portrayed by Truffau as an ‘eternal woman’, a woman who cannot be owned!

In another French film "Outside the Law" not long after, director Godard paid tribute to "Juul and Jim" ~www.ltnovel.com~ and reproduced the scene of three people running wildly at the Louvre. Great gallery.

With the hot screening of "Outside the Law", "Running in the Big Gallery" became an act of imitating by countless men and women in love. It became a common practice and caused headaches for the Louvre.

In 2004, Bertolucci, the famous Italian film director, once again reproduced the classic movie scenes running wild in a big gallery in his love movie "Paris of Dreams".

With the help of these famous film directors and classic love movies, "Running in the Big Gallery" has become an extremely romantic act, which has been imitated by countless young men and women!

What we see at this moment is the reproduction of the classic movie scene of "Running in the Big Gallery". Unfortunately, these three guys obviously can't get to the other end of the Big Gallery! "

After listening to Ye Tian's explanation, Anderson and the others immediately became emotional.

"Wow! That's it, this is really a very romantic move, but the risk is a bit high!"

"Like the legend, the French are really romantic to the bone!"
