In perspective, Ye Tian immediately saw the "Coronation Ceremony of Napoleon I" in front of him. The delicate brushstrokes, oil paints, traces of the shovel painting, the canvas, the wall behind and so on by the painter David.
All of this was clearly presented in Ye Tian's eyes, and nothing was missed!
Even the other world-famous painting hanging on the back of the wall and the few visitors in front of that painting were seen through by Ye Tian. There was no secret.
However, due to the huge area of "The Coronation Ceremony of Napoleon I", reaching more than fifty square meters, from where Ye Tian stood, it is impossible to see the entire painting at a glance, only a little bit.
His first perspective is the central area where Napoleon and Josephine are located. This is where David paints most and is the focal point of the entire painting. The picture is almost perfect!
It is a pity that Ye Tian didn't find any hidden secrets in this central area. He only saw the brilliant painting skills of the painter David, which was breathtaking!
After sighing with emotion, Ye Tian immediately shifted his target and began to see through the area where the Pope and his entourage were located, which was a secondary area of this painting!
Still nothing, did not find any hidden secrets!
In the painter David's pen, the depressed expression of Pope Pius VII and the stubborn appearance of daring to be angry but not speaking are vividly displayed.
The cardinal and many entourage standing on both sides of and behind Pius VII also had very depressed expressions, and their faces were so sad that they couldn't see them.
Next, Ye Tian turned his gaze to the location of Napoleon's mother, and began to see through the area.
Compared with the other figures in the painting, Napoleon’s mother was obviously added later. Regarding this, the traces of the sketch on the canvas prove that there is no Napoleon’s mother in the original sketch.
Although this is a new discovery, it is not the secret Ye Tian wants to see.
Like the places I have seen before, there are no surprises in this area.
Later, Ye Tian looked through the area where the painter David was located, the locations of Napoleon's younger brothers and sisters, and the areas where other princes and nobles and envoys from various countries observed the ceremony.
In a blink of an eye, all the places in this painting where there are figures have been thoroughly seen through by Ye Tian, only the background of the painting and some decorations have not been seen through.
For Ye Tian, this result is undoubtedly a bit disappointing. Isn't there any hidden secret in this painting? I just think too much!
Even though he thought so in his heart, Ye Tian did not end the perspective!
After a short pause, he looked at the background of the painting, the place where the coronation ceremony was held, the internal environment and decoration of Notre Dame de Paris.
On the walls and sculptures, Ye Tian still found nothing, and found no secrets or mysterious characters, numbers, and the like.
However, when his gaze swept across a dark green curtain hanging above the viewing platform, he made a surprising discovery.
It was a French address name, "Shannones Avenue 15". The handwriting was light and small, the color was the same as that of a curtain, and it was covered under a layer of dark green paint.
Because of this, coupled with its location in an unremarkable place where it is impossible for anyone to study it, this line of text has not been discovered, and the secret has been kept until now.
Avenue Shannones, Ye Tian happened to know this street, on the island of Citizen where Notre Dame de Paris is located, less than fifty meters from Notre Dame de Paris and not far from the Louvre.
There is a very good hotel on this street. Before leaving for Europe, Ye Tian had considered that five-star hotel when booking the hotel.
Later, considering that the hotel was on the island, there was limited space to move around, and the Regina Hotel was closer to the Louvre and the scenery was better, so I didn't choose the five-star hotel.
I don’t know what building "Shannones Avenue 15" is? Is it an ordinary residential building or a hotel? Is it private property or government property? Is it possible to buy it?
What is the secret hidden in ‘15 Shannones Avenue’? Is it related to Jacques Louis David or Napoleon? Are there any major secrets or treasures hidden?
After the short surprise, a series of questions flashed in Ye Tian's mind!
At the same time, he quickly made a decision to go to 15 Shannones Avenue to find out what secrets are hidden there, maybe there will be a surprisingly significant discovery.
On this trip to Paris, Notre Dame de Paris is also a must-see attraction. It just happens to be huddled and bunny, no delay!
If there are any major secrets or treasures hidden at No. 15 Shannones Avenue, then you must do everything possible to buy that building and start the treasure hunt!
No matter whether the building belongs to a private person or the French government, as long as it is not an annex of Notre Dame de Paris, Ye Tian is sure to take it. It is nothing more than a question of more money and less!
Next, Ye Tian looked through the rest of the painting again, not missing any corners.
However, he never found other characters or addresses. ‘15 Shannones Avenue’ is the only hidden secret in this world-famous painting.
In about ten seconds, Ye Tian went through the "The Coronation Ceremony of Napoleon I" thoroughly and received a surprise with an unknown answer.
Immediately afterwards, he withdrew his gaze, ended the perspective, and continued to explain the world famous painting to Betty and the others.
"... David drew a total of two "The Coronation Ceremony of Napoleon I", one is in front of everyone, and the other is kept in Versailles.
These two paintings are almost identical, the only difference is in the dress colors of Napoleon’s favorite sister Pauline, the one at Versailles is covered in red and this one is covered in white,..."
Two or three minutes later, Ye Tian's professional and wonderful explanation finally ended.
As soon as his voice fell, applause immediately broke out around him.
"Papa Papa"
The applause was very enthusiastic, coming from Betty and the others, as well as several visitors nearby.
When the applause fell slightly, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind.
"Steven, your explanation is really wonderful. It is definitely the best explanation I have ever heard. It is extremely professional and very lively. It is simply unmatched!"
These words came from Martinez. It has been a while since he and the other two Louvre executives arrived here, and they happened to hear the second half of Ye Tian's explanation.
Hearing the voice of this old friend, Ye Tian immediately turned around, looked at the three high-levels of the Louvre Museum, and said politely with a smile:
"Too much! Martinez, compared with this "The Coronation Ceremony of Napoleon I", even if my explanation is wonderful, it looks very pale, and it is not enough to describe the beauty of this famous painting!
These top artworks in the Louvre Museum are so beautiful and of high quality! Simply unbeatable! Visiting here is like taking a swim in the ocean of art, so enjoyable!
Martinez, if possible, I would like to change our trading conditions a little bit. You don't have to exchange Chinese antique artworks with me. I don't mind other top artworks!
Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" and "Our Lady of the Rocks" and this "Napoleon I Coronation Ceremony" I dare not expect too much, presumably you will not be able to trade them out at the Louvre.
I am not very interested in religious artworks. Everyone knows that if you are willing to exchange "Freedom to Lead the People" or "The Oath of Brother Holas", I will be very happy! "
"You're very happy? But we don't, Steven, you are such a greedy bastard! Your appetite is too big, and you dare to make the idea of "Freedom to Lead the People" and "The Oath of Brother Holas"!
"Freedom to guide the people" is the symbol of the French national spirit, and "The Oath of Brothers Holas" is the battle hymn of the French Revolution, which inspired countless revolutionaries who followed and made them fight for freedom.
Want these two paintings? I advise you to dispel this unrealistic idea as soon as possible. No matter what kind of antique artwork you exchange, it is impossible to exchange these two unique world famous paintings! "
Martinez said irritably, shaking his head very firmly.
The other two Louvre executives were the same, each of them rolled their eyes with anger, but helpless.
Many tourists at the scene were frightened by Ye Tian's remarks. They stared at Ye Tian dumbfounded, like a lunatic.
Can you switch to "Freedom to Lead the People" and "The Oath of Brother Holas"? Of course, Ye Tian knows it, unless he can produce top art works of the "Mona Lisa" level, don't even think about it!
After making a few jokes, Ye Tian came to the point.
"Martinez, if I'm not mistaken, there must be good news coming from the Guimet Museum. Have they negotiated the exchange terms?"
"That's right The Jimei Museum held an afternoon meeting and finally made a decision to exchange with you and exchange Chinese antique artworks for those Queen Mary jewelry in your hands.
Let’s talk about the specific exchange terms in another place. This is obviously inappropriate. We will close the library in a while. We can find a place to sit down and discuss it slowly.
Martinez said sternly, the excitement in his eyes hard to hide.
Ye Tian raised his hand to look at his watch, then smiled and nodded and said:
"Well, we have almost finished visiting the French oil painting museum. We can leave now. Let's talk to another place. I really want to know the specific exchange terms of the Guimet Museum!"
"In that case, let's go now. The Napoleon III restaurant is not far from here. It is very quiet and it can be used to discuss the transaction between us. Please come with me!"
After speaking, Martinez made a please gesture, then turned and walked outside the exhibition hall.
Ye Tian greeted Betty and the others, and immediately followed.
