Treasure Hunt all over the World

Montmartre, located in the north of Paris, is a place full of legends, and it is also a world-famous art mecca.

This is the youngest district in Paris and the commanding height of the entire city!

Standing on the platform of the Sacred Heart Church on the top of the Montmartre hill, you can overlook the beauty of Paris, and you can see the winding Seine river!

In the middle and late nineteenth century, due to cheap rents and not far from Paris, many shy artists gathered in Montmartre to paint and discuss art here!

The famous artists such as Gauguin, Rousseau, Van Gogh, Renoir, Braque, Picasso, Dali, etc. have all painted for their livelihoods on the streets here, suffering hard, and waiting for the arrival of their early days!

Also on this high ground, the heroic soldiers of the Paris Commune dedicated their lives to their ideals and shed their last drop of blood. This is how the Church of the Sacred Heart came into being!

In the Montmartre Heights, there is an inconspicuous chair in a corner of a cafe on the street. Perhaps it is the place where great writers such as Hugo and Hemingway once sat!

They sit there meditating, meditating, or pondering words, or conceiving their next work, or examining humanity and the world!

Today, this place has become a gathering place for painters and artists, full of artistic atmosphere, and has become an artistic sanctuary in the minds of countless literary and artistic youths, including countless famous tourists!

Of course, the rents in Montmartre are no longer cheap. The rents here are so high that they are number one in the whole of Paris!

Artists who are eligible to live here for a long time are no longer low-level artists who have had a meal without a meal, such as Van Gogh, who was unknown when he was alive but became a master of art after his death!

The Montmartre Heights is now home to a large number of middle-class artists, the kind of artists who have a good combination of art and commerce, and there are very few low-level artists!

Most low-level artists have been driven farther away, but they still often come to the Montmartre Heights to pursue their artistic ideals, even if the ideals are illusory!

When the weather is fine, the Montmartre Heights is always full of tourists. The scenery and people in and outside the paintings are always as beautiful and moving. I wonder if the paintings are as beautiful as people or as beautiful as people?

Just after ten o'clock in the morning, Ye Tian and his party came to Montmartre Heights, walked into Xiaoqiu Square talking and laughing, and appeared in the eyes of everyone on the square.

The Piazza del Monte is located in the central area of ​​Montmartre, close to the Saint-Pierre Church and the Sacré-Coeur. As early as the 19th century, it was a gathering place for people to gather and entertain!

The current Xiaoqiu Square has gathered many artists and painters, as well as countless tourists from all over the world. It is the most artistic square in Montmartre!

For Parisians, ten o'clock is still very early, and many people are still immersed in dreams before they even get up, so as to restore the energy that was exhausted by the carnival last night!

But at this time, the Montmartre Heights is full of people and tourists.

Some painters who are living in distress have found a good location in the square and set up painting stalls early on, so as to solicit business, sell their works and paint for tourists, in order to make a living and continue to struggle for the vague artistic ideal.

After all, not everyone has food and clothing, not everyone is as lazy as the Frenchman, who can sleep three poles before starting a day of work and life!

Especially those tourists from all over the world, instead of suffering from jet lag in the hotel, it is better to come out early and enjoy the beautiful scenery of this city!

Unsurprisingly, the arrival of Ye Tian and his party immediately caused a commotion in Xiaoqiu Square. Everyone looked at them, and everyone was full of curiosity and even a little fright!

"I'm going! Why did Steven come? It seems that this crazy **** has made up his mind to sweep all the antique art markets in Paris. I don't know who will be unlucky today!"

"If it's just a clean-up of antique artworks, it has nothing to do with you and me, and bad luck will not come to us. Maybe we can see a wonderful show.

What I am even more worried about is whether Steven, this **** and his sturdy and unusual subordinates, will fight against some idiots here, or even get into the street, then the trouble will be big!

see it? The sturdy big guys scattered around Steven, everyone wearing coats and backpacks, are extremely vigilant, I bet those **** are absolutely armed! "

Amidst the discussion, the vendors selling antiques and artworks in Xiaoqiu Square were all secretly praying that they would never become the target of Ye Tian!

However, more tourists and vendors, as well as shopkeepers who set up shops in the square, hope that today can be passed safely, and there must be no accidents or gunshots!

Ye Tian turned a blind eye to the reactions of the people around him. They didn't care at all. They still wandered forward talking and laughing, enjoying the scenery on Xiaoqiu Square!

While admiring the surrounding scenery, Ye Tian introduced the history of Xiaoqiu Square, which of course was related to art.

"Although the area of ​​Xiaoqiu Square is small, it has left the footprints of many art masters. Gauguin, Renoir, Rousseau, Van Gogh, Picasso, Dali and others have all painted and lived here before becoming famous.

In 1876, it was in the square of the hills that Renoir created "The Ball of the Galette Mill", one of the masterpieces of impressionism, which has now become the treasure of the town hall of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.

Van Gogh created a total of eleven "Sunflowers" in his lifetime. The first "Sunflower" was created in Xiaoqiu Square. Unfortunately, his artistic achievements were not truly recognized by the world until his death.

In 1907, Picasso painted an oil painting for tourists here, "The Girl of Avignon". This painting is considered to be a work of epoch-making significance, and it is also Picasso's first step towards Cubism.

This is not only Picasso's personal artistic breakthrough, but also a breakthrough in the history of Western modern art. It marked the birth of Cubism. "The Girl of Yavignon" is currently in the collection of MOMA in New York.

Picasso once recalled that when he was at his worst, the tolerant, majestic, and elegant Xiaoqiu Square took him in and gave him bread, confidence and strength. Without Xiaoqiu Square, there would be no success for him.

Today, Xiaoqiu Square has become an art mecca, gathering many painters and artists from all over the world. There may be the next Van Gogh and the next Picasso in it! "

While they were talking, Ye Tian and the others had come to the center of Xiaoqiu Square.

This is a square street garden, paved with broken bricks, with an area about the size of five or six basketball courts, and some trees of different sizes are planted in it.

Under the shade of the green trees, some painters have erected easels and painted without anyone else nearby, while others are introducing and peddling their works to tourists.

In addition, there are a number of stalls selling antiques and art, as well as stalls selling tourist souvenirs and various crafts!

In an open-air plaza like this, food stalls are naturally indispensable, such as selling hot dogs, selling chicken and fries, and selling drinks.

On the ground floor of the buildings around the square, there are many restaurants, cafes, tourist souvenir shops, as well as essential galleries and antique shops!

Tourists who come here to visit, or stand behind a certain painter who is painting, quietly admire and witness the birth of a painting, it may be a masterpiece!

Some tourists wander among the painting stalls, and when they see the paintings they like, they may generously donate them, put them in their pockets, and then take them back to their homes to decorate their lives!

Some of these tourists are directly involved in the artist's creation~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and transformed into models, sitting on chairs with grace, letting the artist paint for himself and record the appearance of this moment!

Of course, there are also many people who are not very interested in art.

They are also enthusiastically strolling in the square, taking pictures, or tasting food, or walking among the various stalls, looking for items that make their hearts feel!

Ye Tian and the others who walked into the center of the square came behind a painter who was painting, admiring the painting that is about to be completed on the drawing board, and admiring the artist's creation process. That is also a kind of beauty!

After standing still for a while, Ye Tian suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice.

"Mr. Steven, good morning, come and take a look at my paintings, there may be artwork you need"

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately turned his head and looked to the right.
