Because they were going to visit the famous Grand Gallery of the Louvre, Ye Tian and the others did not spend two or three hours on a lunch like the French tourists in the restaurant.

They finished their lunch in less than an hour, making them the fastest eaters in the entire restaurant.

Then they said goodbye to Martinez and others, then left the restaurant next to Napoleon III's bedroom, and walked happily to the Grand Gallery of the Louvre on the second floor of the Denon Pavilion.

The Denon Museum is named after Denon, the first director of the Louvre. It collects and displays almost all the most famous paintings in the Louvre, including the well-known "Mona". Lisa".

The large gallery located on the second floor of the Denon Hall is a straight corridor with a length of more than 450 meters. On both sides of the corridor are numerous famous top oil paintings in the history of Western art, mainly Italian paintings.

Two other paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, one of the three post-Renaissance masters, "The Madonna of the Rocks" and "Saint John the Baptist" are hung in this corridor.

As for Leonardo da Vinci's other masterpiece, the "Mona Lisa", it is protected by several layers of extremely strong bulletproof glass in the special Mona Lisa Hall. It is impossible to get close at all and can only stay away. View.

In the middle of the Grand Gallery, there is a passage that leads directly to the Mona Lisa Hall. You can visit the Mona Lisa at any time while visiting the Grand Gallery.

In addition to many Italian paintings, the Louvre sometimes makes some adjustments and moves some famous paintings from the French Painting Gallery on the other side of the Mona Lisa Hall to the Grand Gallery.

These famous paintings include "The Coronation of Napoleon I", "Liberty Leading the People", "The Oath of the Brothers of Horatii", "The Raft of the Medusa" and other dazzling top works of art.

Because these are top-notch artworks from Italy and France that are famous in the history of Western art, the Grand Gallery has become the most important art display area of ​​the Louvre.

No matter who you are, no matter where you come from, if you come to visit the Louvre, you must not miss the Grand Gallery, let alone Ye Tian, ​​a top antique art appraisal expert!

While talking, Ye Tian and the others stepped onto the Samothrace stairs again and walked towards the large gallery on the second floor of the Denon Hall.

During the march, Ye Tian also introduced the past and present life of the Grand Gallery to Betty and the others.

“The Grand Gallery was originally a passage connecting the Louvre and the Tuileries Palace. It was built by King Henry IV of France, the founder of the Bourbon dynasty, at the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century.

This is a large-scale famous corridor that took thirteen years to complete. It is the most spectacular part of the Louvre and the most spectacular art corridor in the world.

During the Second French Empire, the length of the Grand Gallery was shortened to two-thirds of its original length, which is what we are about to see. It is still breathtaking and shocking!

For example, Henry IV was a hunting maniac. He once galloped on horseback to hunt down foxes in the Grand Gallery. This shows how grand the Louvre Grand Gallery is! ..."

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian and the others had passed the Samothrace Stairs and arrived at the Grand Gallery of the Louvre on the second floor of the Denon Pavilion.

It was lunch time at this time. Compared with the peak visiting hours in the morning and afternoon, there were much fewer visitors in the art exhibition area. Most people went to the rest area to enjoy lunch.

Some visitors left the Louvre and went out to eat. After lunch, many people will return to the Louvre to visit again. As long as they keep their ticket stubs, there is no need to buy tickets twice.

The only trouble is that these visitors have to queue up again and undergo another security check.

Of course, there are also casual visitors who come to the Louvre and leave after checking in, with no interest in staying here to appreciate the art.

What they are more interested in is probably the Pont des Arts bridge on the Seine River next to the Louvre. Hanging a lock symbolizing love there may be more meaningful to them.

In addition, there is also the Champs Elysées not far away, which can be said to be a place of pilgrimage for countless women, and it is extremely attractive!

Just entering the Grand Gallery, before everyone had a chance to appreciate the world's most famous art gallery, they saw a strange scene.

A little further from the entrance to the grand gallery, three guys in their teens and twenties, two men and one woman, were standing side by side. Everyone leaned forward and made a gesture of getting ready to start, with extremely excited expressions.

Almost at the same time that Ye Tian and the others saw these three guys, the girl standing in the middle shouted.

"Run! Whoever reaches the finish line first is the winner!"

Before the words were spoken, these three guys were already like wild horses running wild, holding hands and rushing out to the other end of the grand gallery.

"Hahaha"

While running wildly, these three guys were also laughing wildly, heartily and unrestrainedly!

Especially the laughter of the girl in the middle, like a silver bell, clear and sweet, resounding throughout the entire Louvre Gallery!

Regarding the unrestrained and unrestrained behavior of these guys, several security personnel at the entrance of the Grand Gallery could only helplessly look at each other and smile bitterly, and then immediately chased after them.

The other two security personnel who were twenty or thirty meters ahead quickly moved to the middle of the large gallery, each with their arms spread out, eagerly preparing to intercept the three guys running towards them!

Seeing this scene happening in front of her, Betty immediately exclaimed with excitement.

"Wow! Is this the famous 'running wild in the Grand Gallery'? I didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I entered the Grand Gallery. It's so interesting!"

While exclaiming, Betty even showed an expression of eagerness to try, as if she was ready to run wildly in the world's most famous art gallery!

Anderson, who was standing on the other side of Ye Tian, ​​and Matisse behind him, were all confused and did not understand the specific meaning of the scene in front of them.

"Steven, what is 'running wildly in the Grand Gallery'? Is there any allusion? Those guys are so brave, they dare to run wildly in the Grand Gallery of the Louvre.

If they accidentally knock over a sculpture or destroy a painting hanging on the wall, prepare to lose everything and probably cry to death in the toilet! "

Anderson asked curiously, his eyes full of confusion.

Ye Tian looked at the three guys who had been stopped by the security personnel, then said with a smile:

"'Running in the Grand Gallery' is indeed an allusion. The first person to run wild in the Grand Gallery was the builder of the Grand Gallery, King Henry IV of France, but he was galloping on horseback.

In the early 1960s, the famous French film director Truffaut filmed a scene of three people racing on a bridge in his best love movie "Jules and Jim".

This classic love movie must be familiar to everyone, especially the heroine Catherine, who was shaped by Truffaut into an 'eternal woman', a woman who cannot be possessed!

Not long after, in another French film "The Outlaw", director Godard, in order to pay tribute to "Jules and Jim", recreated the scene of three people running wildly in the Grand Gallery of the Louvre.

With the popularity of "Outlaw", "running through the Grand Gallery" has become a behavior imitated by countless men and women in love. It has become a common practice and caused headaches for the Louvre Museum.

In 2004, the famous Italian film director Bertolucci once again reproduced the classic movie scene of running wild in a large gallery in his love movie "Paris".

With the help of these famous film directors and classic love movies, "running wildly in the big gallery" has become an extremely romantic behavior and has been imitated by countless young men and women!

What we are seeing now is the reappearance of the classic movie scene of ‘running wildly in the grand gallery’. Unfortunately, these three guys obviously can’t run to the other end of the grand gallery! "

After listening to Ye Tian’s explanation, Anderson and the others immediately became emotional.

"Wow! So that's it. This is really a very romantic move, but the risk is a bit high!"

"As in the legend, the French are really romantic to the core!"
