Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1543: Symbol of strength and beauty

After a few jokes, Ye Tian took a step forward and pushed a wooden box independently placed on the floor.

The box was about 1.5 meters high and about 1.2 meters wide. It was quite large, covered with dust and covered with a thick layer of moss. It looked a little slippery.

The wooden crate remained intact, leaving only a handprint of Ye Tian on it.

Obviously, the items in this wooden box are heavy.

Ye Tian looked at the wooden crate again, and then pretended to be surprised:

"I didn't expect this box to be so heavy, Miller and Walker, pry open this box to see what's inside. If it's correct, it should be a sculpture."

"Okay, Steven, leave it to us!"

Miller and Walker responded in unison, and then stepped forward, ready to do it.

At this moment, Matisse's voice suddenly came from the earphones.

"Steven, the employees of our company are ready to enter the secret room at any time to clean up the top antique artworks in Napoleon's treasure.

The two lawyers who supervised the scene and the Louvre Cultural Museum team are also ready. Everyone has signed a temporary agreement. Now we are waiting for your instructions! "

Without any hesitation, Ye Tian immediately issued an order.

"Okay, let them down, they are needed here"

At the same time as the voice fell, Miller and Walker joined hands to pry open the box, and the contents in the box were immediately presented to everyone.

"Steven, you guessed it, this box is indeed a sculpture. It looks quite old, and it's rusty and incomplete."

Walker said excitedly, then stepped aside and gave up his position.

At the same time, Ye Tian and Martinez stepped forward together and looked at this sculpture with bright eyes, surprises flashed in their eyes!

This is a bronze sculpture of a human figure, about one meter in height. Due to its age, the surface of the sculpture is rusty, and the right arm of the statue has been completely broken. I do not know where it was lost!

The main body of the sculpture is a naked young man with curly hair, his body leaning sideways, his right leg straight, his left leg slightly bent, and his left hand resting on a marble columnar object, seeming to bow his head in thought!

The smooth lines and harmonious composition of the entire sculpture portray this muscular young man who is contemplating into the woods, very vivid, and full of the power and beauty that classicism strongly recommends!

In particular, the proportion of this bronze sculpture is just right and wonderful. The ratio of the whole body to the head of the young man is 7:1, which is the ideal human body ratio.

The human body structure and movements are also handled very accurately. The young man’s standing position with his legs bent all the time just shared the weight of the body. The left arm supported on the marble column also appropriately reduced the weight of the right leg.

Looking at this bronze sculpture, Ye Tian and Martinez couldn't help being attracted to them, so that they forgot that there were other people around them. They all fell into a state of obsessiveness, admiring them with ecstasy.

It was not until Matisse brought seven or eight company employees, two lawyers, and the Louvre Wenbo team into this secret room that they were awakened by Walker.

"Steven, the employees of our company have arrived, and there are two lawyers and the cultural and cultural team of the Louvre"

Hearing this, Ye Tian and Martinez awoke immediately.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian retracted his gaze, turned his head and looked at the group of people who had just entered the underground secret room, then smiled and said loudly:

"Welcome everyone to come and clean up Napoleon's treasure. The next clean-up work is on your behalf. Clean up this underground chamber thoroughly. Don't let any corners go!

You are all professionals and have done similar jobs. I won’t emphasize how to do the work. Now everyone will stay here for a while to get familiar with the environment and start working later."

"Okay, Steven"

Everyone responded in unison, everyone was full of confidence and excitement.

Afterwards, Ye Tian turned his head again to look at the ancient bronze sculpture, and said with a smile to Martinez standing side by side:

"Martinez, I don't know if you can see that this is the outstanding work of that master sculptor? What is the name of this bronze sculpture?"

Hearing this, Martinez immediately turned his head and looked at Ye Tian, ​​then said his own judgment.

"Do you still have to ask? This sculpture is so famous. Anyone who has a little research on ancient Greek sculpture should know this famous bronze sculpture.

This is one of the three great ancient Greek sculptors and master sculptor Polycritus' outstanding work, "Young Men", created in the second half of the fifth century BC.

But what I am not sure is whether this bronze sculpture is the original work of Polycritus or a replica of the Roman era around 150 AD.

There are at least 37 imitations of "Young Men" that exist in the world. All imitations are of the same size, and the style is no different from the original!

According to legend, as early as the Roman era, the original work of Polycritus disappeared. Looking at the preservation of this sculpture, it should be very old.

It's easy to determine the age of this sculpture. Go back and do some scientific tests to get the most accurate data. If this is the original work, it would be great! "

Is this bronze sculpture in front of him the original work of Polycritus and its value? No one knows better than Ye Tian!

The first time he entered this underground secret room, he used the perspective ability to get the most accurate judgment, no doubt!

This is the famous sculpture of ancient Greece, "Young Man", the original work of the sculptor Polycritus, which has long since disappeared in the legend.

In the history of Western art, this sculpture is very famous. It is one of the masterpieces of the ancient Greek sculptor Polycritus. It has been admired by countless people throughout the ages and has been copied countless times!

As Martinez just said, there are at least 37 pieces of "Young Men" that have been copied from all ages, are exactly the same as the original, and are collected in major museums around the world!

Those imitations are all valuable antique works of art. The original work of Polycritus in front of me is even more of a priceless top antique art.

As soon as Martinez's words fell, Ye Tian immediately said:

"It seems that you have a good understanding of this work by the master sculptor Polycritus. Yes, this is the famous ancient Greek sculpture "Young Men". Unfortunately, one arm was lost.

According to my judgment, this is probably the original work of Polycritus, rather than an imitation of the ancient Roman era. Of course, this requires scientific testing to get the most accurate result! "

Following Ye Tian's remarks, there was another commotion on the live broadcast terminal.

The gazes of the Italians and Greeks gathered on this bronze sculpture in unison, and made their own calculations!

Then he admired this sculpture for a while~www.wuxiaspot.com~Ye Tian then retracted his gaze and turned to look at the guys who had just entered the underground secret room and were about to clean up Napoleon's treasure.

"Guys, let's take action. You must carefully clean up every oil painting and every sculpture in this underground secret room, register it, and then shoot the corresponding video materials.

Every box placed in this hall, you must open it, clean up the contents of the box thoroughly, register them all in the register, shoot the video, and not drop one.

During the cleaning process, please be careful. Almost every antique artwork here is a top-quality item that has disappeared for more than two hundred years. It is extremely valuable and must not be damaged.

After opening these dust-covered boxes, if you come across antique works of art you don’t recognize, you can ask me, and I’ll appraise it immediately and determine its name and approximate value"

Ye Tian smiled and said loudly, issuing an action command.

Immediately afterwards, this cleanup team composed of employees of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company and the staff of the Louvre Cultural Museum dispersed in all directions and started the cleanup work!
