Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 2214 Shocking Soul

In a few words, Ye Tian successfully won the "The Prodigal Son" copied by Natasha, and the price he gave was 25,000 US dollars.

For the fledgling Natasha, this price was very tempting. When she heard Ye Tian's offer, she immediately cheered excitedly, and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

After finishing the pocket version of "The Prodigal Son", Ye Tian told Natasha to bring this "The Prodigal Son" and other completed paintings back to the hotel to find him.

I will look at those paintings again at that time, if there are relatively good ones, maybe I will buy a few more.

Hearing this, Natasha cheered again, and then a look of vigilance and fear flashed in her eyes, and she took a step back involuntarily.

Obviously, this beautiful Russian painter regarded Ye Tian as a coyote, thinking that he lied to him to go to the hotel under the guise of looking at the paintings, intending to do something wrong!

Not only Natasha, but many people at the scene also had the same idea.

Some guys first looked at the sexy, beautiful and talented Natasha, and then at Ye Tian, ​​and contempt soon appeared in their eyes.

For these guys, Ye Tian was too lazy to talk to them, and he didn't even bother to explain.

Seeing Ye Tian's actions, David was a little ready to move. He also wanted to accept some of Natasha's paintings as an investment.

However, he finally held back and didn't immediately ask Natasha to purchase, otherwise, Ye Tian's wishful thinking might come to nothing.

When Natasha arrives at the hotel with her paintings later, everyone will have time to choose from them, and it will be safer that way.

The appearance of Maxim and Natasha was just a small episode, and it passed in a blink of an eye.

Next, Ye Tian and the others looked at the world-famous painting hanging on the display wall in front of them, the masterpiece of Rembrandt, one of the greatest painters of the 17th century, "The Prodigal Son Returns".

This is a huge oil painting on canvas with a width of 262 cm and a height of 205 cm. The outer frame is a Baroque style solid wood frame, which is gorgeous and elegant.

The theme of the painting is taken from the Bible, which is a parable of Jesus recorded in the Bible.

Although the subject matter of "The Prodigal Son" comes from the Bible, its expression method is closer to the secular, because the characters described in the painting are ordinary people, not religious figures.

What it shows is that the youngest son of an old man asks his father to divide the family, and then takes the allocated family property and goes away to another country, where he spends his time drinking, drinking and reckless.

It wasn't until he exhausted all his belongings, became penniless and destitute, and his lovers and friends around him were far away from him, did he wake up and realize his lost way.

Next, the impoverished and ragged little son returned to his father, and the blind father gladly accepted his return, and slaughtered cattle and feasted on guests.

The eldest son who was working abroad rushed back home immediately after hearing about this incident, and asked his father why he accepted this prodigal son while ignoring himself who worked hard as a family.

The father then comforted the eldest son, "You are always with me, and everything I have is yours, but your younger brother was resurrected from the dead, lost and found, so we should celebrate with joy."

Rembrandt used his paintbrush to interpret this story recorded in the Bible into a secular scene, and the characters were vividly portrayed.

In the picture, the youngest son of the old man is wearing a brown-yellow inner robe, kneeling on his knees, nestling in the arms of his father in a red robe, his tattered shoes falling from his feet to the ground, and his clothes are not covering his body.

And he has no hair. In ancient Europe, if a person's hair was shaved, it symbolized the deprivation of personal marks.

The blisters on his feet and the scars exposed by slipping sandals are clearly visible, implying the hardships and hardships of the journey, and he has lost everything except the dagger worn on his waist, which is a symbol of his nobility.

He still remembered his identity, and remembered that he was his father's son, otherwise he would have pawned and sold the sword. It was precisely because he remembered his son's identity that he made up his mind to turn his back on it.

The father in the picture is old and looks weak but very kind. His eyes are blind because of missing his younger son, and his hands are convulsed due to heartache, and he is rubbing the back of his younger son tremblingly.

But the youngest son lowered his head and didn't dare to look up at his father. He said that he had to make up his mind to repent, which made people feel excited and warm.

The younger son's elder brother, the eldest son, is in the shadow of the picture, in stark contrast to the picture of the father embracing the younger son excitedly, highlighting the indifference and rejection of the older son, standing by and watching.

Looking at the world-famous painting in front of him, Ye Tian was moved by the strong family affection revealed in the painting, and soon immersed himself in it, admiring it intoxicated.

The sincere feelings shown in "The Prodigal Son" is one of the main reasons why he likes this world famous painting.

Not only Ye Tian, ​​but everyone else at the scene was also deeply attracted by this famous world-famous painting, and they were all deeply moved by it.

For a moment, the scene was completely silent, without any other sounds.

After a long time, everyone just woke up, and there was a sound of admiration at the scene.

"Wow! This painting is so touching. Looking at this painting, I can't help but think of my father. He is like the father in the painting, who gave me endless love!"

"This is really a great and touching painting. We are the prodigal son in ragged clothes, and the old man in the red robe is our elderly father. It is so touching!"

Amidst the praises one after another, some people may have been touched by the nerve that connects with family, and they felt moved, and tears welled up in their eyes.

After a while, when everyone's emotions stabilized a bit, someone immediately said loudly:

"Steven, let me explain this world-famous painting to everyone. As we all know, you are the world's top expert in the identification of antique works of art. You must have seen and understood more things than us."

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene immediately responded, asking Ye Tian to explain the painting "The Prodigal Son Returns" to everyone.

Ye Tian glanced at the crowd, then raised his hands and pressed down gently, motioning for everyone to be quiet.

Seeing his gesture, everyone at the scene immediately fell silent, looking at Ye Tian with full expectation, looking forward to his professional and vivid explanation.

The next moment, Ye Tianqing's clear voice came out again and reached the ears of everyone present.

"Well, ladies and gentlemen, since you want to hear my explanation of this painting, I will explain it to you.

In fact, I really like this masterpiece of Rembrandt, "The Prodigal Son", and it is a great honor to explain this painting to you."

"clap clap"

The warm applause suddenly sounded, and everyone present gave Ye Tian their own applause.

After the applause subsided, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said loudly:

"As for the content of this painting "The Prodigal Son's Return", I won't introduce much here. I believe most people are familiar with it. Even if they don't understand it, the introduction next to the painting is very clear."

As he said that, Ye Tian pointed to the electronic screen next to "The Prodigal Son Turns Back". The related stories of the Prodigal Son were written on it in various languages, which was very clear.

After the voice fell, everyone at the scene nodded lightly in unison, and there was no disagreement.

Next, Ye Tian got to the point and began to analyze this famous world famous painting in public.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to appreciate this painting "The Prodigal Son Returns" better, you must understand the life of the master artist Rembrandt, because to some extent, this painting is a true portrayal of Rembrandt's life.

Rembrandt is one of the greatest painters in Europe in the 17th century and the greatest painter in the history of the Netherlands. His life was not only famous but also experienced setbacks and ups and downs. He created countless priceless top artworks.

He achieved brilliant achievements in the first half of his life, but his artistic path and life came to a dead end. In the second half of his life, he experienced great changes in belief and artistic style, and his rich life experience gave him new creative power.

After transformation, or after transformation, Rembrandt began to rethink life, beliefs and paintings; as a philosopher said: "Only those who have experienced hell have the power to build heaven."

Since then, he has increasingly chosen deeply human subjects to express the love, mercy and forgiveness of God the Father, rather than dazzling revelations or moments of miracles.

"The Return of the Prodigal Son" is the peak work of Rembrandt in his later years, the most representative work, and the last and perhaps the greatest religious theme oil painting of Rembrandt's art career.

This painting "The Return of the Prodigal Son" presents a power that shocks the soul and a different artistic conception than before. The characters, colors, light sources and composition in the painting all have brand-new interpretations, which was unique at the time.

Rembrandt's paintings expressing faith in his later years were not popular at the time. However, at this time, Rembrandt no longer painted to cater to the public and society. His art was only for faith and truth,... ..."

As the explanation unfolded, everyone's attention was firmly attracted, listening to and appreciating "The Prodigal Son Returns" very close at hand.

The entrance of the Rembrandt Hall where everyone is located has been completely blocked, and people are constantly coming here to join the listening ranks.
