Open Traveler: Culture Invasion Parallel Blue Star

Chapter 115 The pinnacle of impressionism→Ukiyo-e→Longguo prints!

On the screen, a picture appeared.

In the painting, a sunflower falls on the ground on a blue-black base.

Its leaves all point to the sky, very 'burning'.

Lin Xuan smiled: "Van Gogh's sunflowers."

The master of the light school, Merelson, looked back at Macro: "Is this... the sunflower painting method of the real school?"

Macro glared at the painting: "Fuck you, this is obviously the sunflower painting method of the Light School."

The two masters looked at each other and refused to give in to each other.

They feel that if they admit that this painting belongs to their own genre, they may be 'beaten' by their friends when they go back.

What is this?

Li Jun frowned and observed carefully: "This..."

"Why is it so similar to the paintings I made when I first learned to paint?"

Lin Xuan: "To be precise, when this painting appeared, it was Van Gogh's fourth year studying oil painting."

Several masters were dumbfounded.

[Learned this for four years?Didn't it mean that he was gone at the age of 37?This was drawn by him when he was seven years old? 】

[Yes, at this level, how can you become a master of the Light School! 】

[It must have been drawn when I was a child. 】

Lin Xuan added: "This year he was 31 years old."

【? ? ? ? 】

[Isn't it? ? ? 】

Li Jun: "I understand, he...is he a real school painter before, and his paintings are not bad, and then he accidentally came into contact with Longguo prints, and then he is adjusting his style, and wants to embark on the road of fusion school... "

"No, didn't you say that Van Gogh was the Impressionist master of the Light School, that is, the Earth Star?"

"Shouldn't he learn the way of fusion school?!"

Lin Xuan nodded: "You are probably [-]% right in saying that."

"However, what Van Gogh saw was not the prints of the Dragon Kingdom, but the ukiyo-e of the Sakura Kingdom."

"Oh, in Blue Star, they translate it into secular paintings."

Li Jun's eyes showed disdain: "Isn't that the same thing? If you can't copy something that Sakura Country can't understand, it's like watching a bad print."

[Hahahaha, Master Li Jun's temper is right. 】

[Li Jun can deal with this person, if something happens, he really wants to, hahahaha! 】

Ukiyo-e is an art form that has been blown to the sky by the country of cherry blossoms.

Born in the 16th-18th century.

It mainly depicts people's daily life, scenery and drama. It is a painting technique of fireworks and willow lanes.

In the 200 years between the nineteenth century and the end of the twentieth century, it was blown into the sky by the people of the cherry blossom country.

Even, in Longguo's history textbook, in the world history page, there are two full paragraphs of Ukiyo-e descriptions.

However, at the beginning of the 21st century, some painters in Longguo studied Ukiyo-e and suddenly found that it was exactly the same as the prints in Longguo from the 14th to 16th centuries.

It can't be said that they are similar, but they can only be said to be exactly the same.

Because of the famous scenes in Ukiyo-e, Quan Teme found the source of the original version in Longguo.

Every one is copied!

The horror of printmaking is that it is used for printing!

This also means... Even if the people of Cherry Blossom Country at that time snatched the original editions of those prints or copied the printed paintings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties of Longguo, it was useless.

Because a large number of printed materials will definitely leave the original version in China.

After these things were found, bragging about Ukiyo-e to Sakura Country was simply a head-on blow.

Since the 21st century, no one in Sakura Country has ever boasted about Ukiyo-e.

Lin Xuan smiled: "The two worlds are the same in this regard, so I won't explain much."

"Back to the topic, after learning to paint, Van Gogh spent two years revisiting the sketches he learned as a child."

"However, he did not continue to learn the gouache that he learned when he was a child, but entered the field of oil painting."

"In the early days, Van Gogh took the path of Impressionism. He painted four sunflowers in the early days, but one was uglier than the other, and one was more disorderly than the other."

"After being exposed to pirated Ukiyo-e prints, Van Gogh's art suffered a huge impact."

"In this case, he has only two ways to go: being destroyed or achieving achievements that no one has ever achieved."

It was as if, for the first time in history, someone mixed copper and tin.

No one knew that this would give birth to bronze.

The people who did this at the beginning must have produced a lot of garbage because of the wrong ratio and destroyed a lot of precious copper materials.

So did Van Gogh.

In the first four years of painting, Van Gogh used a lot of expensive paints and produced a lot of rubbish works.

Of course, because it was painted by Van Gogh and witnessed the change of his artistic style, those garbage works are also more expensive than the representative works of ordinary famous artists.

Lin Xuan turned his head, and three paintings appeared behind him: "These are three sunflowers from the middle period of Van Gogh."

As soon as the sunflowers appeared in the picture, Merelson, the master of the Light School, stood up directly: "So, Van Gogh was the first painter in the history of Earth and Star to enter the Light School? He discovered the secret of color alone?"

In the picture, the blue background and yellow sunflowers make the colors stand out very gorgeously.

Merelson: "Contrasting colors!"

"The background color of his three sunflowers and the color of the sunflower happen to be the color with the biggest difference on the contrast color wheel!"

"In the law of contrasting colors, the greater the difference on the color wheel, the stronger the color contrast."

"Simply put, blue is more blue and yellow is more yellow!!!"

This principle is still widely used on TVs, computers, and mobile phone screens in the 21st century.

Countless photographers or netizens who like to take pictures of P pictures have learned these things without realizing it in the era.

But before Van Gogh, it was all a fog. It was Van Gogh who opened the door to color.

Lin Xuan nodded: "Yes, this is the second stage of Van Gogh's works."

"He understood the influence of color on the appeal of paintings, and he also became the painter who used colors best in the history of the earth and stars."

The art of color is always fascinating.

Just like the director Zhang Guoshi.

His movies are so colorful that no one can forget them after watching them.

Even TV commercials have to buy clips of his movies to show the purity of the colors of their TVs.

Van Gogh was also such a master.

However, Van Gogh was 150 years earlier.

Merelson looked at the shape of the sunflower petals on the painting: "With such flamboyant petals, Van Gogh has officially entered the School of Light at this stage, becoming the first painter of the School of Light in the history of Earth and Stars."

"Excellent, I never thought that the painters of Earth and Stars entered the Light School from this angle."

Impressionism (Blue Star Light School) advocates reflecting the instant impression of nature based on the seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple presented in the solar spectrum. Impressionist works choose a wide range of subjects, whether in cities or in rural areas. Painters try to capture the ever-changing nature.

But Blue Star didn't get into Impressionism in this way.

The Impressionist painters of Blue Star first entered Impressionism in the process of looking for gradient colors from the angle of light.

Rather than entering Impressionism from contrasting colors.

Lin Xuan smiled and released another picture: "This is the fourth sunflower picture of Van Gogh's mid-term."

"'Yellow Sunflowers on a Yellow Base'."

"In this painting, Van Gogh subverted the law of contrasting colors he discovered, and used yellow bases and yellow flowers for the first time."

"Amazing!!!!" Merelson could already imagine a refined and knowledgeable Van Gogh, and discovered another secret of color in the studio.

Contrasting colors will make colors stand out more.

And similar colors will make the picture appear softer and more harmonious.

To put it simply, Van Gogh alone discovered two of the five basic functions of TV, 'contrasting color' and 'soft'.

Merelson exclaimed: "So, Van Gogh entered Impressionism by himself, pushed Impressionism to its peak by himself, and completed the entire journey of Impressionism from the beginning to the peak by himself?"

Taking a deep breath, Merelson regretted: "I was born 150 years later, and I am not as good as him."

"At this time..." Lin Xuan continued: "Van Gogh met a rare friend in his life, another Impressionist painter, Gauguin."

"To be precise, Gauguin at this moment is not an Impressionist painter. It was after Van Gogh's death that Gauguin became a professional painter and a master of Post-Impressionism."

"Gauguin likes this sunflower very much, and wants to ask Van Gogh for this painting." Lin Xuan: "It's funny to say that, these paintings that Van Gogh used hundreds of francs worth of paints, even half a ruble You can't even get the bread back."

"But Van Gogh liked this sunflower so much that he painted three other sunflowers."

In the picture, there are three sunflowers painted by Van Gogh after he had completed his work.

"That's the full story of Van Gogh."

"At the age of 37, while painting a picture, Van Gogh raised a gun and ended his life."

The master of the light faction, Merelson, can't find a confidant in Blue Star.

Because the existing painters, the most capable ones, are also a grade lower than him.

After seeing Van Gogh, Merelson has been in a state of great excitement.

"Can we go and see Van Gogh paint?"

"This sunflower is full of life force, I can't describe it, I want to see the whole process of it being drawn!!!"

Lin Xuan smiled: "Yes."

The picture is changing, in 1889, the small town of Arles in the Gallic Chicken Country.

A slightly thin middle-aged man with a big orange beard walked on the road.

He is, Van Gogh.

Vincent van Gogh is walking on the road with a painting in his arms.

A bartender who didn't wash his face, covered with soot from a black pot, and gnawed on the road with bread, saw Van Gogh from a distance, laughed and said, "Van Gogh, would you like to trade your painting for half of the bread today or for a piece of bread?" A small glass of wine?"

Van Gogh smiled: "Is half a loaf okay?"

The bartender laughed loudly: "If you don't change it, your painting is worthless!!! It's not worth as much as a piece of white cloth. Your painting ruined that perfect cloth."

[I wipe! 】

[This person will regret it soon! 】

[A historical-level master of the Light School, it is said that a painting cannot be exchanged for half a piece of bread...]

Van Gogh took off the wallet from his waist with a smile and weighed it: "Oh, my dear brother Theo sent some money for me."

"So at least for the last month, you guys won't be able to tease me, bastard."

After speaking quietly, Van Gogh walked towards his dilapidated hut.

In the cottage where Van Gogh lived, seventeen or eight bricks were missing from the brick wall on the first floor, and there were small holes everywhere.

The wooden boards on the second floor had become damp, moldy and black, rotten and crumbling in the wind.

Van Gogh returned to the hut with newly bought expensive paints.

Only then did Lin Xuan explain: "Van Gogh loved sunflowers all his life."

"Sunflower is the nickname of Van Gogh's younger brother Theo, and Theo has sponsored his brother Van Gogh to learn painting art free of charge all his life."

"After the death of Van Gogh in 1889, Theos became ill from overwork and died of illness half a year later."

"His family brought his body here in the Netherlands to be buried with Van Gogh."

"In front of the tombs of the two brothers, there are sunflowers that are respected all the year round."

With Lin Xuan's explanation, the barrage exploded.

[1889?Wait, how long is it in the video now? 】

【1889...】

【Fuck me, wouldn't that mean Van Gogh is gone soon? 】

In the picture, Van Gogh sits in front of the drawing board holding the paint he just bought, and begins to conceive seriously.

This is also the last sunflower in his life.

Then, the screen starts to speed up and slow down.

Every time Van Gogh stops to think, the picture speeds up, and every time Van Gogh paints, the speed returns to double speed.

In three days, Van Gogh painted the last sunflower.

Seeing this, Merelson couldn't help sighing: "A born painter, a born master of light."

"In just three days, such a masterpiece with vitality was drawn."

"If possible, I would trade three of my pinnacle works for Van Gogh's pair of sunflowers!"

You must know that the three paintings of Merelson together cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

Moreover, it is still a boutique that he is unwilling to sell.

This process can only be understood by those who study painting.

What most people see is not a painting, but an accumulation of emotions.

The yellow and blue base painted at the beginning is superimposed with layers of yellow and blue paint.

All kinds of very flamboyant brushstrokes finally merged into a very unified style, which looks extremely harmonious.

Then table tops, pots, and stems.

The last is the sunflowers in full bloom on the top floor.

Moreover, among the flowers, some are full and some are not full, some are in full bloom and some are beginning to wither, some are ripe with seeds, some are green with seeds, and some are buds that have not yet bloomed.

The sunflowers in this painting seem to be the fate of Impressionism.

It appeared in the hands of Van Gogh and bloomed in the hands of Van Gogh.

At the same time, although many people in the Gallic Kingdom were trying to follow the path of Impressionism.

But they all went the wrong way.

In the end, the complete road was walked from beginning to end by Van Gogh alone.

He was a forerunner, a great forerunner.

The scene from the dirty-looking canvas to the blooming sunflowers made everyone who saw it couldn't help admiring.

Because, it's like seeing life suddenly appear on the barren land, and such a flower grows.

This kind of emotion is something that cannot be seen just by looking at the painting.

Only by seeing the process of painting can we understand.

Several masters are nodding.

Although it is not their own school of painting, they can all see that this is the pinnacle of the Light School (Impressionism).

At this time, the audience noticed that Lin Xuan walked into the screen.

It's been a long time since Lin Xuan had contact with the earth stars in the live broadcast!

After finishing the sunflowers, Van Gogh was admiring his paintings when he suddenly found someone beside him who turned to stare at Lin Xuan: "My friend, if you are here to rob."

"You are late."

"My money turns into paint, and my paint turns into paintings, and my paintings are notoriously worthless."

Many people said that Van Gogh was crazy, and many experts studied the logic of Van Gogh's letters and speeches, and felt that Van Gogh was not crazy at all.

Sure enough, Van Gogh was not crazy.

His logic is clear.

Lin Xuan: "Van Gogh?"

Van Gogh nodded.

Lin Xuan: "I want to take you to an art exhibition."

Van Gogh was surprised and smiled: "Forget it, I don't have money to go to the art exhibition."

"It's fine, you don't need money." Lin Xuan: "It's an art exhibition where the paintings of the greatest painters in the world gather. You won't feel bad after seeing them."
