On one of the posters, there is a Roman general wearing ancient Roman plate armor and a cape draped over his shoulders, hanging straight behind him, with a resolute face, deep and resolute eyes, staring straight ahead.
That is the bronze statue of Julius Caesar, the founder of the Roman Empire, the same statue of Caesar hidden in Mark Antony's treasure.
As for the picture on the other poster, everyone who has a little knowledge of Western art knows it and is very familiar with it. What is painted on that poster is Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, the famous " "Our Lady of the Rocks".
To be precise, it was the third "Virgin of the Rocks" created by Leonardo da Vinci that was just discovered in Milan ten days ago, and it is also the most perfect "Virgin of the Rocks".
In addition to the bronze statue of Julius Caesar and the "Virgin of the Rocks", there are more than thirty posters on the steps behind these two giant posters, but they are much smaller in size and have different contents!
These thirty-odd posters are scattered at different heights. There are more or less several posters on each step, extending all the way to the main entrance of the Vatican Museum.
On these beautifully crafted posters, there are magnificent underground palaces, various sculptures from ancient Greece and Rome, various periods from the Renaissance to the 20th century, various schools, and many top art masters. Outstanding paintings!
Without exception, every antique artifact and work of art that appears on these posters is a priceless top-notch antique work of art, enough to drive people crazy!
People queuing up at the entrance of the Vatican Museum, waiting to enter the museum, looked at these posters, everyone looked ecstatic, and their eyes were full of anticipation.
"Wow! These top-notch antiques and works of art are so beautiful and precious! Who would have thought that they would appear in the same museum and in the same exhibition hall? It's incredible!"
"Who says it isn't! But what's even more incredible is that these priceless top antiques and works of art all belong to the same person, that extremely lucky guy Steven!
Others may never come across even one of these priceless top-notch antiques and works of art in their lifetime, but that guy Steven has so many. How can he make sense? ”
There were constant discussions at the scene, one after another, and every voice was full of envy and jealousy. Many people wished they could replace Ye Tian and take these priceless top-notch antiques and artworks on the poster as their own!
Yes, the public exhibition currently being held in the Vatican Museum is the harvest exhibition of Ye Tian's trip to Italy. The exhibition is called 'The Art of Recreating the World'.
All the top antique cultural relics and works of art on display in this public exhibition were discovered by Ye Tian during his trip to Italy. What is printed on those posters is only a part of them!
The people queuing up at the entrance of the Vatican Museums are all here for this exhibition and for the priceless top antiques and artworks!
At this time, it is already the third day of the exhibition "The Art of Recreating the World", and the number of visitors has not decreased at all, but has become more and more!
As soon as this public exhibition started, it caused a huge sensation around the world, especially in the field of art. The sensational effect it caused was no less than a magnitude 10 earthquake!
After receiving the news, countless tourists and art lovers from all over the world flocked to the Vatican.
Like pilgrims, people came one after another to attend this public exhibition, which only lasted for five days, for fear of missing this God-given opportunity!
Everyone knows that once this opportunity is missed, it will be impossible to see these priceless top-notch antiques and works of art at the same time and in the same museum!
This only happens once, no one wants to miss it!
With the opportunity of this public exhibition, the popularity of these top antique cultural relics and works of art discovered by Ye Tian in Italy is increasing exponentially, and their influence is also growing!
Of course, the market value of these top antiques and artworks is also soaring crazily!
This is exactly what Ye Tian wants to see, and it is also one of the reasons why he held this public exhibition.
While people were waiting in line outside the museum, in a historical building in the Vatican Gardens, a top-notch private auction had officially begun.
It was Ye Tian who held this private auction.
The objects of this auction are part of the trophies from his trip to Italy, which are top-notch antiques and works of art with strong religious connotations.
And the threshold for this private auction is very high, and not many people and institutions are qualified to participate.
They include representatives of the Italian government and the Milan Municipal Government, directors of famous museums in Italy, many super-rich people and top collectors, representatives of major banks, top executives of top auction houses, several famous art brokers, etc.
In addition, there are representatives from the Vatican and the U.S. government, several super-rich people and top collectors from the United States, several famous museum directors, some of the most famous art dealers in the United States, several Wall Street bankers, etc. .
In addition to these people, other government representatives from major European and American countries, senior executives of famous museums such as the Louvre, many European super-rich people and top collectors, etc., are not even qualified to enter this historical building, let alone participate in the competition. Got it!
This is part of the agreement that Ye Tian reached with the Italian government and the US government.
The Italians cannot keep out the arrogant and unreasonable boss. After all, they have to rely on the United States for everything. The other major European and American countries do not need to be so polite!
They want to leave as many priceless top antiques and works of art as possible, and keep those priceless treasures in Italy. Naturally, they hope that the fewer competitors, the better!
The United States wants to take this opportunity to acquire more top-notch antiques, cultural relics and works of art to add a bit of cultural heritage, so as not to be ridiculed by many European allies for being a nouveau riche!
For this situation, Ye Tianle saw the result and did not raise any objection!
Those top-grade antique cultural relics and works of art with strong religious overtones are for sale anyway, and it doesn’t matter who they sell to, as long as their own interests are not damaged!
At nine o'clock in the morning, this private auction started on time.
Ye Tian, who personally took the stage to preside over this private auction, made an opening statement as usual, briefly introducing the origins of the top antique cultural relics and artworks being auctioned today.
In fact, many of the bidders at the scene were very familiar with these top antiques and works of art, and had no doubts about their authenticity and value!
Just last night, they all participated in the preview of this private auction, carefully appreciating and appraising these top antique artifacts and works of art, and everyone knew it.
After some opening remarks, Ye Tian got down to the topic, and the first auction item was immediately unveiled, which was Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, "The Madonna of the Rocks".
"Ladies and gentlemen, the first auction item tonight is the "Madonna of the Rocks" that you are seeing now. It is also the third "Madonna of the Rocks" created by Leonardo da Vinci. It has never been sold before.

Among the three paintings with the same name, this "Madonna of the Rocks" is the most outstanding and perfect work. In terms of artistic value alone, it is more valuable than the two paintings collected by the Louvre and the National Gallery. outstanding!
I won’t go into details about the painting “Virgin of the Rocks”. I gave a very detailed introduction at last night’s preview, and everyone also made an appraisal. There should be no doubt.
In the art auction market in recent decades, Leonardo da Vinci's paintings have almost never appeared. The only time they appeared was the "Lisa Gradini" I found in Milan. It was auctioned for three times. One billion euros.
The buyer who bought "Lisa Gradini" is the richest woman in Italy, Ms. Maria. She also came to the scene today. Let's use the transaction price of "Lisa Gradini" as a reference to determine the price of this painting. Oil painting pricing.
In fact, the artistic value of this "Virgin of the Rocks" is no less than that of "Lisa Gradini" and has a higher status in the history of Western art. In comparison, this oil painting by Leonardo da Vinci The preservation is also more perfect!
In order to leave enough room for everyone to bid, the starting price I have set for this "Madonna of the Rocks" is 2.5 billion euros. Based on this starting price, everyone can compete freely, and the highest bidder will win. !
One thing I must state in advance is that I have set a reserve price for every top-quality antique cultural relic and work of art that is auctioned today. Only if it is higher than the auction reserve price can the transaction be truly completed. Everyone is welcome to compete! ”
Before he finished speaking, the scene was completely boiling, and almost everyone held their heads and exclaimed.
"What? Did I hear it correctly? The starting price of this "Madonna of the Rocks" is 2.5 billion euros. Is this guy Steven crazy? Why doesn't he go and grab it!"
"Oh my God! This is definitely the highest starting price in the history of antique art auctions. It is simply unheard of! This guy Steven is so crazy and extremely greedy!"
Just when people were exclaiming, an unharmonious voice suddenly sounded at the scene and reached everyone's ears.
"Stephen, hurry up and start. I can't wait to get this "Madonna of the Rocks". If I can get my wish, I will enshrine this Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece!"
The one who spoke loudly was Maria, the richest woman in Italy, who was very eager.
Obviously, she had a huge benefit from the successful photo of Leonardo da Vinci's "Lisa Gradini" from Ye Tian, and she is planning to do the same thing again today!

"As you wish, Maria, the auction begins now,..."
