Picking up leaks in live broadcast: There are treasures everywhere in my eyes

Chapter 648

There are fewer stolen antique works of art stored in this room than in the first room.

However, every stolen antique art here is a masterpiece and a top-notch item of great value.

More importantly, Xiao Ran liked the antique artworks in this room more and wanted to keep these treasures for himself.

As he said before, it houses works from the major schools of Western art from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twentieth century.

There are Barbizonists, Impressionists, Post-Impressionists, Fauvists, Symbolism, etc., which are dazzling and dizzying.

In the middle of the wall directly opposite the door of the room, hangs a blue "Water Lilies", an outstanding work by Monet, the standard-bearer of Impressionism.

It is one of the most famous Impressionist paintings and, to some extent, one of the symbols of Impressionist art.

On both sides of this "Water Lilies", as well as above and below, there are also several impressionist paintings.

They are the work of several other Impressionist masters and are all top works of art.

These include works by Impressionist masters such as Renoir, Pissarro, Manet, Degas and others.

In addition to the paintings on the walls, there are also some Impressionist paintings standing on the floor, one on top of the other, standing against the wall.

Although the paintings stand on the floor, they are also top-notch works of art, and each one is worth a lot.

The adjacent right wall is a display wall of the Barbizon school.

On this wall, six works of the Barbizon school are hung.

On the floor stand many paintings, also works of the Barbizon school.

Among these paintings are the works of Rousseau, Corot, Miller, Dobini and other masters.

One of the most striking is a painting by Rousseau.

The size of this painting is large, occupying almost half of the wall.

The painting depicts a summer scene in the forest of Fontainebleau near Paris.

Surrounded by greenery, there is a small village, which is the village of Barbizon.

Rousseau is the leader of the Barbizon school, and the most sensitive and glorious representative of the Barbizon school.

His landscape oil painting depicts the scenery near the village of Barbizon, and the importance can be imagined!

The paintings hanging on the wall on the left side of the room, as well as the many paintings standing against the wall, are more varied in style and genre.

The most striking of these are the two Post-Impressionist masterpieces hanging on the walls.

They are part of Van Gogh's Sunflowers series of paintings and Cézanne's Solitaire series, respectively.

These two masters, together with Gauguin, are known as the three mountains of Post-Impressionism.

Relatively speaking, Cézanne and Van Gogh are a little more famous than Gao.

In addition to these two post-impressionist masterpieces, a painting by the Fauvist master Matisse is also very conspicuous.

In addition, there are other masters of art here.

They belong to different artistic schools such as Post-Impressionism, Fauvism, Symbolism, etc.

And on the half of the wall next to the doorway, there are several neo-impressionist works, the least numbered.

One of the most valuable is a painting by the neo-impressionist master Seurat.

Looking at the situation in this room, whether it was Frank and Peggy who were at the scene, or Elaine and Pierre in front of the large-screen TV on the ground, they were

stunned for a long time, and everyone came to their senses.

Immediately afterwards, the ground and the ground were fried at the same time.

"Oh my God! This is indeed paradise, a paradise for Western painting art!

"It's hard to imagine that so many top works of art are hidden in such a room deep underground

" "It's incredible that these top works of art encompass all the most important schools of art in France in the second half of the nineteenth century!"

Everyone exclaimed, and all danced excitedly.

Looking at the performance of everyone at the scene, Xiao Ran couldn't help but chuckle.

The next moment, he smiled and said:

"From the late eighteenth century, until the Second World War, France has been the center of art in the Western world

" "At that time, almost all the major art schools in the West were born in France, especially Paris, which also gathered countless top artists" "

Because of this, almost all the stolen antique works we see in this room come from French ,......"

Listening to his words, everyone nodded.

After saying a few more words, Xiao Ran suddenly looked at Peggy and said to this guy: "Peggy

, the works of Manet and Degas stolen from the Gardner Museum are in this room

" "They are placed in front of the opposite wall, pressed behind the other paintings, you can go over and take a look"

Saying, he pointed to the paintings standing in front of the opposite wall.

Before the words fell, Peggy was already cheering.

"All those impressionist paintings that were stolen from our museum are here? That's great! "

It's been 30 years, and we've finally found these stolen artworks,"

he said, and he walked quickly towards the opposite wall, obviously impatient.

Xiao Ran smiled, and then continued:

"Gentlemen, everyone is free to visit, but hurry up

" "One thing everyone must pay attention to, do not touch these stolen antique works of art without gloves

" "Understand, Sean, we will be careful"

Everyone answered in unison.

After that, everyone dispersed and began to visit on their own.

Xiao Ran glanced at the scene, and then walked towards the opposite wall.

In a moment, he was already in front of the wall, then stopped and looked at the several paintings hanging on the wall.

Among the many schools of art in the West, he preferred Barbizon and Impressionism, as well as post-impressionist art.

The paintings in front of him were all by the masters of Impressionist art, and he wanted to pocket each one and take it for himself.

But he also understands that this is unlikely!

In his eyes, these impressionist paintings are rare treasures.

And in the eyes of those looted museums and collectors, why not!

In particular, works by Monet and Manet, Cézanne and Van Gogh, as well as Rousseau and Millet.

They are even treasures of some museums, treasures at the bottom of some stolen collectors' boxes.

For example, Monet's blue "Water Lilies", Rousseau's "Barbizon Landscape", as well as Van Gogh's "Sunflower" and Cézanne's "Card Player" and so on.

These paintings are placed in any of the top museums and are the treasures of the town.

Just as Xiao Ran was admiring the blue "Water Lilies" in front of him, Frank suddenly walked over.

Approaching, the guy asked curiously:

"Sean, where is this Monet's blue Water Lily originally stored?"

"Monet's water lily series of paintings, I have seen several before, but I have never seen this one

" "One more thing, how much is Monet's blue "Water Lilies" worth?" It must be amazing, right?

Xiao Ran turned his head to look at him, pondered for a while, and then said with a smile:

"Monet painted more than one hundred and eighty

"Water Lilies", and this blue "Water Lilies" is just one of them" "I have seen this painting for the first time, and I don't know where it was collected before

" "But I can be sure that this is indeed the work of the impressionist master Monet, and it is a fine work of the "Water Lilies" series

" "As for this blue ". The valuation of "Water Lilies", because there are too many paintings in the "Water Lilies" series, has affected the market value to some extent

" "This blue "Water Lilies" I value about 50 million US dollars, but its artistic value is higher"

It is no surprise that this valuation has just come out, and it caused a commotion.

Frank was directly stunned in place, and his eyes instantly became redder.

Xiao Ran looked at this greedy guy in his eyes, and continued:

"The same situation applies to paintings such as Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" and Cézanne's

"Card Players", "Sunflowers" and "Card Players" are both series of paintings, but there are fewer of them, 7 and 5 respectively" "Because of this, compared to the "Water Lilies" series of paintings, "Sunflowers" and "Solitaire" have a higher market value"

With his introduction, Frank and they turned to look at "Sunflower" and "Card Player" again.

You can see that this guy's eyes are getting redder and redder, and it's a little scary to look at!

Scott next to him and the head of the FBI art crime team and others also showed the same performance.

At this moment, Peggy suddenly said with excitement:

"I finally found it, and it is a miracle that those stolen paintings of Manet and Degas are indeed here!"

"The hateful thing is that the two bastards Miles and McCann, when they cut the paintings from the frame, still caused some damage to these paintings, but fortunately they were not serious"

Hearing this, everyone looked towards where Peggy was.

At this time, Peggy, wearing a white glove, had found the impressionist paintings stolen from his museum, and admired them excitedly.

Xiao Ran looked at this guy, then looked at the impressionist paintings, and then said jokingly:

"Peggy, one thing I want to state is that the person who found these stolen artworks is me, not you

" "Another point is more important, don't forget the agreement we signed!"

"Ugh!"

Peggy exclaimed, directly stunned in place.

Only then did he seem to remember.

These impressionist paintings no longer belong to the Gardner Museum, but to Xiao Ran!

Immediately afterwards, he showed a remorseful and pained expression.

His reaction made some uninformed people feel very surprised and unclear.

However, neither Xiao Ran nor Peggy explained much.

Frank and Timothy, who knew the situation, did not say much.

But they also felt pain for Peggy and Gardner.

You know, these are six or seven top antique works of art!

Just swept away by Xiao Ran, who is not distressed?

After a few small talks, Elaine's voice suddenly came from the intercom.

"My dear, Fargot told me something about the blue Water Lilies

" "Monet's blue Water Lilies last appeared at a small auction in Monaco in 1985

" "The painting was auctioned by an anonymous buyer, and then disappeared from people's sight and never appeared again

" "Unexpectedly, it fell into the hands of two art thieves, Miles and McCann, is hidden here

" "What is even more surprising is that there is no theft record of this "Water Lilies", that is, the owner did not report the case

" "Based on this situation, it is speculated that behind this "Water Lilies", there may be some secrets hidden, such as the identity of the owner, etc."

Hearing this, Xiao Ran suddenly laughed.

The next moment, he copied the walkie-talkie and said:

"I don't care who this owner is, and I'm not interested in knowing his secret, I only care about

this blue "Water Lilies"" "From the analysis of the situation you found, this blue "Water Lilies" is already a stolen artwork without owner, then this painting belongs to me!"

"Brush!"

Everyone looked at him, that was called a envy and jealousy!

Monet's "Blue Water Lilies"
