Treasure Hunt all over the World
Chapter 2210: Paintings under the sun
What made Ye Tian complain about was the layout of the Raphael Room.
This is a classicist style exhibition hall, which is very in line with the status of the master of Raphael Classicism. The exhibition hall is solemn and elegant, the space is tall and spacious, and the overall environment is very artistic.
However, the windows of this famous exhibition hall are extremely tall, from about half a meter above the ground to the ceiling, and they are facing the wide and clear Neva River.
Standing in front of the windows facing the river, you can see the beautiful scenery on the Neva River and the golden spire of the Peter and Paul Fortress on the other side of the river.
If this is a villa or apartment mansion, or an office building, and almost all buildings except museums, the beautiful scenery outside the window will definitely add to the building.
The market value of this building will also increase a lot because of its excellent location and the beautiful scenery outside the window.
But this is a world-class museum. The existence of these tall windows is not so suitable.
It is the morning, and the situation is okay. The sunlight can't shine through the tall windows on the progress hall, shining on the priceless top art in the exhibition hall.
Wait in the afternoon, the setting sun from the west will flood the exhibition hall and sprinkle on the extremely rare top artworks until the sun sets.
More importantly, the bullet-proof glass showcase containing Raphael's "Madonna and Child" is placed in front of a window in the middle of the exhibition hall and is unobstructed.
You know, this is a top art treasure with a history of more than 500 years from the Renaissance period. The requirements for preservation and display of the environment are very high.
And how did Lao Maozi do it? They exposed such a top-level artwork directly to the sun, which is nothing short of violent!
Seeing this situation, can Ye Tian secretly complain about it?
But he does not stop there. He can't change anything at all. Who makes the Hermitage Museum not belong to him? Who makes the top art in the exhibition hall not belong to him?
Compared to the Raphael corridor outside and the several exhibition halls that pass by, there are obviously more tourists visiting the Raphael exhibition hall. Looking at it, the exhibition hall is full of black people.
And people are mostly concentrated around the two paintings of Raphael, "Madonna and Child" and "Holy Family", and the exhibition cabinets displaying these two paintings are enclosed.
stood at the door and glanced at the situation in the exhibition hall, Ye Tian smiled and said:
"Mikhail, let’s go and admire Raphael’s "Madonna and Child" first. I want to see how Raphael expresses his superb classical paintings on such a small canvas. skill based"
"Okay, Steven, please follow me"
Mikhail nodded in response, and immediately led Ye Tian and the others to the window in the middle of the exhibition hall.
At the same time, other tourists in this exhibition hall also saw Ye Tian and the others.
No surprise, there was a small commotion in the exhibition hall immediately, and there was a sound of discussion.
"Hey! It's Steven. I didn't expect that he also came to the Hermitage Museum and the Raphael Hall to visit, and it was Mikhail who personally accompanied him. It's not a shame!"
"This is normal, don't forget, Steven is not only a top professional treasure hunter, but also a top antique art appraisal expert. How could he not come to the Hermitage Museum when he came to St. Petersburg!"
Amidst the constant discussion, some people couldn't help but curious and started asking questions out loud.
"Good morning, Steven, welcome to Hermitage, I wonder if you brought the golden siding of the Amber Room? Can you show it publicly? Every Russian wants to see those priceless treasures! "
Hearing this, Ye Tian stopped immediately, turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
The loudly interrogator was a Russian man in his sixties, wearing a pair of glasses, tall and thin, well-mannered, and looking like a senior intellectual.
Ye Tianchong the Russian man nodded lightly, then smiled and said:
"Good morning, gentleman, I’m Steven. It’s nice to see you here. Hermitage is one of the world’s four largest museums and the pearl of St. Petersburg, Russia. Of course I have to come and visit.
As for the golden siding of the Amber Room, I have taken it to Hermitage. When we reach an agreement and complete the transaction, everyone will be able to see the famous Amber Room. Please be patient."
After answering, he turned back and continued to walk forward with Mikhail and the others.
Like every visit to the museum in the past, many visitors in the exhibition hall, including those who were about to leave after the visit, saw Ye Tian and the others walking towards Raphael’s "The Virgin and Child" and immediately followed.
The expressions of these guys are very excited, their eyes are full of expectation, their footsteps are much lighter, and they all speed up secretly, trying to seize a good position.
They have heard of it more or less, Ye Tian explained the vividness and splendor of antique art. At this moment, when encountering such an opportunity, I naturally don't want to miss it, not to mention this is an outstanding painting by Raphael.
In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian and the others have come to the bulletproof glass showcase of Raphael's "Madonna and Child", and stopped here.
Seeing them coming, the many visitors who originally surrounded the bulletproof glass showcase immediately gave up a passage, and everyone looked at Ye Tian and Mikhail.
Ye Tian and the others were not polite. They nodded to the many visitors at the scene, thanked them, and then went through the crowd and went straight to the bulletproof glass showcase.
came here and stood still. Ye Tian did not immediately admire the painting displayed in the showcase, but pointed to the tall glass window next to him and said:
"Mikhail, what's the matter with this glass window? Some time before sunset, sunlight should be able to directly enter this exhibition hall and shine on this top art piece. Are you not afraid that this painting will be damaged? "
Hearing this, Mikhail's face immediately changed, his expression a bit awkward.
" Raphael’s "The Virgin and Child" is here. It was set more than a hundred years ago. It has never changed. We respect the historical tradition and it is not easy to make changes.
More than a hundred years ago, the research on how to protect oil paintings ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ was not very thorough. The damage caused by direct sunlight to oil paintings was accumulated little by little and did not attract much attention at that time.
When arranging and displaying "The Virgin and Child", the museum staff only considered that the bright natural light would help people appreciate this top painting, and did not consider the damage of direct sunlight.
For more than one hundred years after that, except during World War II, this outstanding work by the Renaissance master Raphael has been placed here for people to visit, and the location has never changed.
It has become a tradition for people who come to visit the Hermitage Raphael Hall to appreciate this painting, feel the great art of Raphael, and appreciate the beautiful scenery on the Neva River.
We have also tried to transfer this priceless painting to a deeper part of the exhibition hall and to a place out of sunlight, but it has attracted countless voices of opposition, and we have to respect tradition.
In order to protect this top-level artwork, we have also done some work. We replaced the showcase for this painting with a bulletproof glass showcase with constant temperature and humidity, and worked **** the glass.
The glass on this showcase is not only very strong, but also can effectively cut off heat and ultraviolet rays from the sun, and can change colors with the environment, giving this "Madonna and Child" maximum protection"
Hearing this explanation, Ye Tian couldn't help but nodded slightly, without saying anything.
Many onlookers at the scene were the same, no matter whether they understood it or not, they nodded one after another, showing a stunned expression.
Next, Ye Tian looked at the famous painting displayed in the bulletproof glass showcase, ready to enjoy it.
