After admiring the tall statue of David, Ye Tian and the others took a few steps forward and climbed to the top of the steps of the statue's base.

After arriving here, the group of them immediately turned around, stood on the steps and began to admire Florence, an ancient city full of humanities and art.

From where they were, they had a panoramic view of Florence.

At the foot of the nearby mountains, is the Arno River flowing quietly, like a jade belt, winding from the mountains in the distance, passing through the city of Florence, and flowing into the distance.

What flows in this river is not only the crystal clear water, but also the two thousand years of history of the ancient city of Florence.

It started from the Roman Republic during the reign of Julius Caesar, and passed through the extremely glorious and star-studded Renaissance period until modern times.

Looking across the quiet Arno River, you can see the old town of Florence, which has existed for a thousand or two thousand years.

In this ancient city, there are rows of ancient buildings built in various periods and styles. Each building has its own uniqueness, which is worth savoring and studying carefully.

Here is the Florence Academy of Fine Arts, known as the world's highest art school, originating from the Renaissance, and the magnificent Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, known as one of the three largest domes in Europe.

Here are the 82-meter-high and colorful Giotto’s Bell Tower, the San Giovanni Chapel built around the fifth century AD, the Renaissance Art Palace and the Uffizi Gallery!

There are countless ancient bridges here, spread throughout every corner of the old city of Florence, including the famous and picturesque Ponte Vecchio in Florence!

The Palazzo Vecchio connected by the Ponte Vecchio, also known as the Palazzo Vecchio, was the residence of the Medici family, the rulers of Florence during the Renaissance.

At the entrance of the Palazzo Vecchio, there is also a statue of Michelangelo's David, echoing the one in Michelangelo Square!

Like the statue in the square, the statue of David at the entrance of the Old Palace is also a replica, but it has a longer history. It has been waiting there since 1873!

There is another famous work of Michelangelo, "Victory", carved on the walls on both sides of the conference hall. It is Michelangelo's original work!

Another famous palace where the Medici family lived and the most magnificent palace building in Florence, the Pitti Palace, was also within Ye Tian's field of vision and could see it clearly.

Standing on the highest point of the base of the Statue of David and overlooking the panoramic view of Florence, this ancient city is even more elegant, full of historical charm, full of humanity and art, and it is fascinating!

After standing on the steps of the pedestal for a while and appreciating the panoramic view of Florence, Ye Tian and the others reluctantly withdrew their gaze and walked down the steps.

Next, the group of them went to San-Miniato not far behind the Statue of David. This is a heart-stoppingly beautiful Romantic church that once belonged to the Medici family.

In front of this church, there is also a group of Michelangelo's sculptures, which are engraved with a fable.

Like the Statue of David, the original white marble sculpture has been removed by the Florentine authorities out of concern for the protection of these precious sculptures and replaced by a set of bronze replicas.

After the Medici Chapel, Ye Tian and the others visited the neoclassical loggia designed by Giuseppe Poggi, the designer of Michelangelo Square, and admired the art displayed there. Taste.

Of course, there is also a personal monument to Giuseppe Poggi.

After admiring these cultural landscapes, Ye Tian and the others focused on the various activities in the square and the various stalls scattered here and there.

As a popular tourist attraction, Piazza Florence also has many vendors doing business here to support their families, including many selling antiques and art.

As for whether the things on the stall are antique works of art, modern crafts, or worthless garbage, it all depends on the buyer's vision!

In addition, there are several painters setting up stalls here, with varying levels of skill. There are also some impromptu street performers, singing, dancing, or performing performance art, etc.

Like almost all famous attractions in Europe, there are many thieves here.

The thieves are mainly Italians, and there are also Gypsies, North African Arabs, etc. All of them have sinister features, their eyes are darting around, and they behave sneakily. They don't look like good people.

After enjoying a so-called performance art performance, Ye Tian and the others came to a painting stall, stopped, and began to appreciate the many paintings placed on the painting stall with great interest.

It is very consistent with the temperament of the city of Florence. The paintings on this painting stall are mainly classical paintings, as well as some realist landscape paintings.

After admiring the paintings on this stall for a while, Ye Tian pointed to one of the paintings, smiled and asked the stall owner and painter:

"Man, this painting looks interesting. What's the price?"

The painting Ye Tian is referring to is a classical oil painting with a theme from a biblical story. Judging from the appearance of the painting, it should be somewhat old and not a work painted in recent years.

Of course, it is even less likely to be the work of the stall owner and painter himself, unless he has very good old-fashioned techniques that can make the fake look real!

Hearing Ye Tian's question, the painting stall owner's eyes suddenly lit up, and a glimmer of excitement flashed deep in his eyes.

Following Ye Tian's finger, the stall owner looked at the painting. With some doubts, he carefully looked at the classical-style oil painting.

After pondering for a moment and thinking secretly, the stall owner boldly made an astonishing offer.

"Five million euros, Steven, as long as you are willing to pay five million euros, you can take away this painting!"

After finishing speaking, the stall owner looked at Ye Tian expectantly, expecting to hear the best answer and seeing Ye Tian nod his head to accept the offer, then he would make a lot of money!

Hearing the quotation given by the stall owner, Ye Tian was stunned and stared at the stall owner in disbelief.

Then he burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, five million euros, this price is really amazing. It seems that this painting is either a work by Leonardo da Vinci or a work by Raphael? Or it is a work by another top art master!

Florence is indeed the birthplace of the Renaissance and the most important city. Priceless masterpieces and top-notch works of art can be seen everywhere on the streets. This trip to Italy is really the right one.

Unfortunately, I cannot make an accurate judgment, nor can I enjoy it. I'd better leave this top-notch piece of art to other people who are destined to do it. Maybe someone can recognize its origin and buy it! "

After finishing speaking, Ye Tian took Betty forward and walked to another stall not far ahead without any hesitation!

This time the stall owner was dumbfounded. He stood there blankly, staring at Ye Tian's back in stunned silence.

You bastard, you didn’t even pay back the price, you turned around and left. You were just trying to make fun of me. You didn’t even take a fancy to this classical oil painting, which made me waste my feelings and make a joke. !

Thinking of this, the stall owner's face turned red, not to mention how embarrassed he was!
