Chapter 2212： Looting Hermitage

is still the Raphael Room. Ye Tian and the others are standing in front of another famous painting by Raphael, "The Holy Family", admiring this priceless top art.

This painting uses the Virgin and Child, Saint Joseph, and Saint John the Baptist as objects of expression. Through the expressions and movements of the characters in the painting, it shows the subtle relationships within the Holy Family.

Ye Tian is not interested in these religious stories. He is just as a visitor, admiring Raphael's near-perfect art and the ubiquitous humanistic spirit.

Same as when he saw the "Madonna and Child" before, he did not miss the opportunity to see through this top painting.

In this painting, he found several hidden mysterious symbols, but he didn't know the meaning of these mysterious symbols or what they pointed to.

All he can do is to remember these mysterious symbols secretly, and see if there is a chance to uncover the secrets behind these mysterious symbols in the future.

Except for these mysterious symbols, he did not find anything else, nor did he find any surprises in the golden showcase where this painting was displayed.

Then he ended the perspective and began to concentrate on admiring this priceless painting.

A moment later, he took on the duty of a volunteer explainer and began to explain the painting to everyone.

"This "Holy Family" was created in 1506. During this period, Raphael's art has undergone tremendous changes. Through studying the works of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, his creation has become more mature.

The characters in his works have become fuller. Each character has the lofty emotions and thoughts of the ideal world, far away from secular desires and turmoil, and represents the most lofty aesthetic taste of people at that time.

…….

In this "Holy Family", Raphael's most perfect character is still the Virgin Mary holding Jesus, just like the Virgin Mary you have seen before, holy and noble.

Raphael’s Madonna is perfect. This kind of beauty focuses on the characteristics of all beauties. It is impossible to find a perfect image in any beauty. This is the ideal beauty that Raphael pursues,..."

Listening to Ye Tian's professional and vivid explanation, everyone at the scene was already intoxicated in a blink of an eye, and they all listened with gusto.

At the same time, they saw the Raphael's "Holy Family" before them, and suddenly they had a new feeling.

A few minutes later, Ye Tian's explanation just ended.

Everyone admired the painting in front of them for a while, then left here and walked to a marble sculpture not far away.

That is also a famous and top-level artwork. It was created by Raphael’s disciple Lorenzo. It is a sculpture created by Lorenzo based on Raphael’s sketches, "The Little Boy Died on a Dolphin."

While admiring this sculpture, Ye Tian admired it with intoxication, and at the same time began to secretly absorb the spiritual energy contained in this sculpture to strengthen his own strength.

It’s just that the amount he absorbs is very small, less than 5% of the spiritual energy contained in this sculpture, no one noticed it at all, nor did he cause any substantial damage to this precious sculpture.

In fact, except for the two outstanding paintings of Raphael, the antique artworks displayed in the Raphael Hall failed to escape his poisonous hand, and he had absorbed part of the aura.

Not only the Raphael Hall, the Raphael Corridor outside the exhibition hall, and the many artworks displayed in the nearby exhibition halls, they also failed to escape their bad luck and were all looted by Ye Tian.

With his secretly absorbing spiritual energy, out of people’s sight, countless refreshing auras, like turbulent tides, kept coming to Ye Tian.

When these auras rush to Ye Tian's side, they will turn into a trickle, flowing into his eyes one after another, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, all swallowed by him.

In a blink of an eye, more than an hour has passed.

At this time, Ye Tian and the others have come to another famous attraction in the Hermitage Museum.

This is the famous Jordan Staircase, the most spectacular staircase in the Hermitage Museum, and the most luxurious staircase in the world.

Jordan Stairs, is the main staircase of the Winter Palace, leading to the main hall of the Winter Palace.

In the earliest days, because envoys from various countries would walk along the stairs to the main hall to meet the Tsar, it was named the Ambassador’s Step.

Later, because the royal family went down the stairs to receive the baptism of holy water on the Jordan River during Epiphany, it was called the Jordan Stairs.

This is a staircase made of pure white marble and gold-inlaid pillars, lighting, and various exquisite sculptures. It emits a brilliant light and is extremely luxurious.

On this staircase, you can see exquisite and gorgeous gilt wall lamps, carved and inlaid Greek columns, beautiful sculptures, etc., luxurious and magnificent.

Even the corners of the stairs are decorated with gold rims, which is dazzling!

came here and admired the magnificent Jordan stairs. Ye Tian and the others looked up at the huge zenith painting above the stairs, admiring them with intoxication and marveling at it.

The resplendent Jordan stairs, which made everyone dizzy, were not the purpose of Ye Tian and the others.

The huge zenith painting by Titian, the master of the Renaissance artist and the most famous painter of the Venetian School, located above the Jordan Steps, "Mount Olympus", is what attracts everyone to come here.

Although this Zenith painting was not painted by Titian himself, it is just a work copied by the Russians, but it reproduces the great painting of Titian almost perfectly.

Standing on the Jordanian stairs, looking up at this zenith painting, everyone has the feeling that they can see the ancient Greek gods of Olympus flying in the sky, looking down on themselves.

The feeling is very strange, as if I can communicate with the ancient Greek gods and heaven.

After admiring the magnificent Jordan Stairs and the huge zenith painting above the stairs, everyone was still very satisfied, and then under the leadership of Mikhail, he went to the Titian Hall to visit.

This is a small exhibition hall with eight oil paintings by Renaissance master Titian on display.

They are "The Confession Magdalene", "Carrying the Cross", "Christ Blessing", "The Virgin, the Child, and the Mary Magdalene", "San Sebastian", "The Wiener in the Mirror "S", "The Statue of Paul III Farnese", "Danaeu".

Without exception, these eight paintings by Titian are priceless and top-of-the-line works of art. Each painting is worth more than billions of dollars, which is extremely rare.

In this exhibition hall, everyone enjoys the "sun among the stars", the outstanding paintings of the artist Titian, and feels the great artistic charm of the greatest painter of the Venetian school. Everyone is intoxicated.

Compared to others, Ye Tian gets more here.

Art master Titian’s eight oil paintings, he has never let go of them. He has absorbed a part of the pure and unusual aura from each oil painting to strengthen his strength.

After everyone finished the tour, when they walked out of the Titian Hall, the aura in Ye Tian's eyes was almost overflowing Personal strength has also taken a higher level.

Through the on-site secret test, the distance he saw the light emitted by the antique artwork had reached more than 270 meters, close to 280 meters.

The ability to see through objects has also been greatly enhanced. The walls and floors in the Hermitage Museum seem to him as if they don’t exist.

In other words, the Hermitage Museum has no secrets in his eyes. Even the vault deep underground can be seen clearly by him.

Next, Ye Tiancai became a pure visitor.

Like other visitors, he enjoyed the various paintings and sculptures of the Hermitage Museum's Western European Art Museum, and enjoyed a swim in the ocean of art.

Soon, more than an hour passed.

After visiting several exhibition halls one after another, Ye Tian and the others came to the entrance of a famous exhibition hall and walked into this exhibition hall with the flow of people.

This is the famous Rembrandt Room. The artworks displayed inside are all the works of Rembrandt, one of the greatest painters in the 17th century and the greatest painter in Dutch history.

In the Hermitage Museum, this is the oldest exhibition hall. When the Hermitage Museum was established, the Rembrandt exhibition hall already existed.

As soon as he walked into the Rembrandt Hall, Ye Tian immediately stopped and looked at the display wall directly opposite the entrance of the exhibition hall.

To be precise, he saw an oil painting hung on that display wall, a veritable priceless treasure, and one of the treasures of the Hermitage Museum!
