Following the still life painting, Ye Tian discovered another work by Giorgio Morandi, but this one was no longer a still life painting, but the scenery of Morandi's hometown of Bologna.
Giorgio Morandi is a very famous paranoid in the history of Western art, and he is also extremely homesick. He almost never left his hometown of Bologna throughout his life, and always stayed in that three-acre land!
There are two main themes for his artistic creation. One is still life sketching, specializing in painting various bottles and jars, and he paints them superbly! The other is the scenery of his hometown of Bologna, which he also never tires of!
With the appearance of this landscape oil painting with a slight post-impressionist color and even a bit like Cézanne, there was another exclamation in the scene.
As before, Ye Tian briefly explained this landscape oil painting, introduced the relationship between Morandi, Post-Impressionism and Cézanne, and gave a positive identification conclusion.
However, he did not give a valuation for this landscape oil painting, continuing to whet everyone's appetite.
After admiring this Morandi landscape oil painting, Ye Tian rewrapped it, put it aside, and leaned against the wall of the utility room.
Then he picked up another unopened picture frame and prepared to reveal the secret.
While taking action, he joked expectantly:
"Everyone has seen a series of masterpieces by Impressionist art masters and two masterpieces by Giorgio Morandi. I wonder which top art master the painting about to be opened is?
If this painting was by Leonardo da Vinci, or by Raphael, or by Michelangelo, that would be great, then there is no doubt that today would be perfect day! ”
Hearing this, everyone at the scene rolled their eyes angrily and complained secretly!
“You **** is so greedy. You just got so many priceless Impressionist masterpieces and two equally priceless paintings by Morandi, and you’re still not satisfied!
There are only a few paintings of the three masters of Renaissance art that have been handed down. Each one has a name, so it is so easy to obtain. If you encounter all of them, it would be unreasonable!
What's more, you have discovered the paintings of the three masters of Renaissance art before. This kind of good thing cannot happen to you again and again. How can you let others live? ”
While secretly complaining, everyone also had some murmurs and doubts in their hearts.
There is no other reason. In their opinion, Ye Tian's luck is so incredible. It seems that it is not impossible if he really discovers the paintings of the three masters of Renaissance art here!
While speaking, Ye Tian had already uncovered the layers of moisture-proof oilcloth wrapping the frame, and another oil painting appeared in front of everyone.
This is a Baroque style portrait with sharp contrast between light and dark. The characters in the painting stare out of the painting, seeming to be watching everyone in the utility room.
The moment they saw this oil painting, everyone was stunned. Everyone's eyes widened, looking dumbfounded.
In just a moment, everyone woke up and said in unison excitedly:
"Oh my God! This is a self-portrait by the art master Rembrandt, another priceless top-notch work of art!"
Obviously, everyone recognized this Baroque style portrait at a glance and directly pointed out who created this top-notch work of art!
This happens because Rembrandt is so famous.
His status in the history of Western art is not much worse than that of the great masters of the Renaissance. It can be said that he is on par!
During his lifetime, Rembrandt painted more than a hundred self-portraits. This is the most famous and outstanding series of his works.
Rembrandt's self-portraits are collected in many top museums in the West, and most of them are treasure-level collections. They are priceless treasures!
Because of this, everyone recognizes this Rembrandt self-portrait at a glance!
Ye Tian glanced at everyone present, then nodded triumphantly and said:
"Yes, gentlemen, this is the famous 'Rembrandt Takeout'. It is really a huge surprise to find a self-portrait of the art master Rembrandt here, and it is worth celebrating!
Since this is a painting by Rembrandt, and Rembrandt has always been a favorite of art thieves, so there is a saying of "taking away Rembrandt", then I guess, this may also be a stolen painting. Top quality artwork!
However, the theft of this Rembrandt painting was at least before World War II and is now unknown. Balbo obtained the painting through unknown channels and hid it in this secret room.
Fortunately, Balbo was killed by his own men, and this Rembrandt self-portrait can be kept until now. Until it is discovered by us, it can see the light of day again and bloom with the bright light of art again!
Everyone just recognized it at a glance as a self-portrait by Rembrandt. This shows how deeply rooted Rembrandt’s self-portraits are in the Western world. It is estimated that many people know the method of identifying Rembrandt’s paintings!
When we see a Baroque style oil painting with extremely superb painting skills and strong contrast between light and dark, every character in the painting looks like a homeless man under a dim street light, that is Rembrandt!
Although this is not the work of the three masters of Renaissance art that I expected, the self-portrait of the art master Rembrandt is also acceptable. After all, Rembrandt also has a very high status in the history of Western art! ”

Listening to Ye Tian's words, everyone at the scene couldn't help but feel angry, and at the same time they were almost crazy with envy!
This is Rembrandt's self-portrait, a priceless top-notch work of art. You **** are still not satisfied. You are so insatiable. Do you really want to discover the "Mona Lisa" here? ?
After a few jokes, Ye Tian began to explain this Rembrandt self-portrait to everyone, but he still did not give an accurate valuation of this painting!
But everyone in this utility room knows that this is a priceless treasure!
After briefly explaining Rembrandt's self-portrait, Ye Tian rewrapped this priceless treasure and placed it beside it, leaning against the wall.
At this time, only three of the picture frames taken out from Balbo's secret room were left unopened.
Unsurprisingly, everyone's attention was focused on the remaining three frames, and they were secretly guessing which art master's work was hidden under the layers of dark gray moisture-proof tarpaulin!
While talking, Ye Tian picked up another picture frame and carefully began to dismantle it.
Others in this utility room were watching his every move with anticipation, staring at the picture frame wrapped in moisture-proof tarpaulin!
After a while, Ye Tian peeled off the moisture-proof tarpaulin wrapped around the picture frame layer by layer!
What appears in front of everyone this time is a Cubist oil painting, and its characteristics are very distinctive, and it looks familiar!
What appears in this Cubist oil painting are several naked girls, some fat or thin, some standing or sitting, with different postures, and posing, as if they are showing their enchanting figures to the world!
However, the figure of each character in the painting is completely distorted and difficult to identify, and only a general outline can be seen!
All the backgrounds and characters in the painting are completed through color. The use of colors is exaggerated and grotesque. The color contrast in the picture is strong, but very restrained, and it has great visual impact!
The moment they saw this Cubist oil painting, everyone was stunned, and an incredible look flashed across everyone's face!
Immediately afterwards, the cultural counselor of the U.S. Embassy in Italy said in surprise:
"Isn't this Picasso's "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon"? But isn't that the pioneering work of Cubism stored in MOMA in New York? How could it appear here? And the picture and size seem to be different!"
Hearing these words, everyone else at the scene nodded in agreement. Everyone's eyes were full of questions and curiosity, and they were also extremely excited, as if they had discovered a new world!
Ye Tian did not speak immediately, but carefully observed the Cubism painting, and then said with pretending excitement:
"Gentlemen, this is not the pioneering work of Cubism, "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon". There is a big difference between the two paintings in terms of size and composition, but they look a bit similar at first glance. That’s all!
But I am very sure that this is definitely an authentic work by Picasso, and it is an unknown work. It may be more accurate to say that this Cubist painting and "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" are companion pieces! ”
Before he finished speaking, the pot was boiling on the spot. Everyone’s eyes widened in an instant, so much that their eyeballs almost flew out!
