In Stein's secret room, Ye Tian was still explaining Gu Kaizhi's "Pictures of Admonitions to Women's History" to everyone present, this priceless treasure that has been passed down through the ages.
"After introducing the history and inheritance of "The Picture of Women's History", let me introduce to you the painting itself, its artistic value, and the content of this painting.
In the history of Chinese art, "Proverbs of a Female History" is a successful example that integrates education and aesthetics. It heralds the transformation of Chinese painting from emphasizing education to aesthetics, which is of epoch-making significance.
This ancient painting is very mature in terms of structure and spatial processing. Each section of the picture is relatively independent, and it also refers to the front and back. Each section tells people an independent story.
In terms of space processing, the principle is basically that the main characters and noble characters are large, while the secondary characters and humble characters are small, which looks childish and full of painting, reflecting the style of early figure paintings.
The theme characters can also be created with various actions according to different contents. The dynamic expressions of the characters can be seen clearly, and the inner world of the characters can be expressed through changes in movements and expressions.
The innovative spirit shown in this painting by Gu Kaizhi, a famous painter of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the way he presented figures have undoubtedly advanced the level of figure painting creation by a big step since the Han Dynasty."
Hearing this, Fisher, the director of the British Museum, the person in charge of the China Pavilion, and several other museum executives all nodded slightly and expressed admiration.
Although they all hated Ye Tianhen to the point of itching their teeth, they had to admit at this time that the guy in front of them was indeed very powerful, almost omnipotent, exactly like the legend, he was simply a monster.
Ye Tian glanced at everyone present and continued to explain with a smile.
"Gu Kaizhi created this "Picture of Proverbs for Female History", which takes the daily life of palace women in the Eastern Jin Dynasty as the theme. The brushwork is extremely delicate, like spring silkworms spinning silk, and the characters in the painting are both physical and spiritual.
The gossamer drawing technique he used makes the picture elegant, quiet, yet bright and lively. The lines in the picture are tactful, even and graceful, and the characters' clothes and belts are flowing, making the image vivid.
The dresses of these female historians in the painting are long and elegant with wide hems, and each style is matched with ribbons of different shapes and bright colors, showing a graceful and elegant style..."
In the following time, Ye Tian explained this famous painting to David and others from an artistic point of view by analyzing the details of the characters, composition, coloring, clothing, brushwork and other aspects of the painting.
He searched his mind and used almost all the beautiful words he could think of to praise the artwork, and applied them to this famous painting through the ages.
That's it, he still doesn't think it's enough, but he can't think of anything more.
As for whether David and Prince William understand and truly appreciate this eternally famous painting, Ye Tian doesn't care at all. It's enough that he knows how to appreciate it!
Introducing the complete artistry, Ye Tian pointed to the first paragraph of "The Picture of Women's History" and began to introduce the specific content of the painting.
At this time, he was completely immersed in this famous painting through the ages, as if he was having a direct conversation with Gu Kaizhi from more than 1,600 years ago across time and space.
But David and Prince William standing nearby were completely ignored by him and were regarded as just a ball of air.
"I have said before that "The Picture of Women's History" is based on the work of the famous Western Jin Dynasty writer Zhang Hua, "The History of Women". The original text is twelve sections. Therefore, this painting is also divided into twelve sections. Now it is only Nine sections remain.
The first paragraph is about Emperor Han Yuan leading his palace people to watch a beast fight in the tiger enclosure. All the beauties in the harem were present. During the watch, a black bear suddenly jumped out of the fence and approached Emperor Han Yuan. Feng Jieyu stepped forward to protect the emperor. .
In the scroll, Feng Jieyu wears a long belted coat. Although Pingting is slender and a weak woman, she is fearless in the face of the black bear charging towards Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty. Her spirit of fearlessness in the face of danger is outstanding and she is extremely courageous.
Although the two warriors standing behind were holding weapons, one was shouting loudly, and the other was stabbing the black bear hard, but they both had a look of panic on their faces, which was in sharp contrast to Feng Jieyu's head held high.
Several other palace ladies were even more panicked, which also highlighted Feng Jieyu’s bravery. In this paragraph, Gu Kaizhi used his brush to vividly express the different images and personalities of the characters..."
Following Ye Tian's introduction, David and Prince William were also attracted by the eternally famous painting in front of them, or by the wonderful stories of ancient China.
Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
Ye Tian's professional and wonderful explanation finally came to an end, and they walked from one end of the bulletproof glass showcase to the other, thoroughly appreciating the original part of this eternally famous painting.
However, Ye Tian still had more to say.
After staying at the end of the display cabinet for a while, he was ready to start from the last section of this famous painting and appreciate this shining pearl of Chinese civilization again.
At this moment, Prince William suddenly asked curiously:
"Steven, I would like to ask, if you were to value this eternally famous painting, how much would you value this painting? Can you tell us about it? Everyone must be very interested!"
With Prince William's words, everyone at the scene looked at Ye Tian, and everyone's eyes were full of curiosity.
Ye Tian turned to look at Prince William, then glanced at everyone present, then smiled and shook his head and said:
"I cannot give an accurate valuation for this "Picture of Proverbs of Female History" because it is one of the symbols of Chinese civilization and a truly priceless treasure that cannot be measured by money.
This is like the Irish Stone of Destiny. For the British and Irish, that dark gray stone is a priceless treasure, and its meaning cannot be measured in money! ”
After hearing Ye Tian's words, everyone at the scene couldn't help but nodded. Those guys from the British Museum even had a look of regret in their eyes.
……
Soon, it was approaching 5:30 in the afternoon, and the British Museum was about to close.
Until now, Ye Tian and the others were still preparing to leave the China Pavilion, the British Museum, and return to the Ritz Hotel.
Although he was ready to leave, Ye Tian did not take away any of the top-notch Chinese antiques that already belonged to him. Instead, he kept those priceless treasures in the museum.
Compared with the Ritz Hotel, the conditions of the British Museum are obviously better, more suitable for preserving top-notch antiques and artworks, and it is also safer.
More importantly, professional matters must be left to professionals. When a large number of cultural and cultural personnel from China arrive in London, Ye Tiancai is ready to pack and transport away the priceless treasures that already belong to him.
Of course, until then, the British royal family, the British Museum, the British Library, and other British cultural institutions will not be able to obtain the antique artifacts and ancient books and documents they want.
When he was about to walk out of the China Pavilion, Ye Tian saw Mr. Qian and others waiting at the door of the China Pavilion at a glance. He immediately went over to say hello and invited these old men to return to the Ritz Hotel with him.
For his invitation, several old men would refuse it, but they readily agreed.
Next, when they were about to move on, Cole suddenly walked up to Ye Tian, called him aside, and then lowered his voice and said:
"Steven, according to the informant we arranged, the female boss of the Pink Panther has woken up, left the intensive care unit in the afternoon, and was sent to the general ward.
Although the female boss woke up, she seemed to be crazy and had lost her memory. She yelled as soon as she woke up, did not recognize anyone, and bit the policeman who was guarding her."
Hearing Cole’s report, Ye Tian immediately sneered and whispered:
"Tell the guys guarding the hospital to keep an eye on that old woman. If she has any changes, she must report to me. Whether she is really crazy or acting, it is best not to provoke me again, otherwise God will save her. Can’t touch her”
"Understood, Steven, I'll let you know when I get back"
"Okay, let's go back to the hotel, there are still many things to do"
With that said, Ye Tian walked towards David and the others.
It didn't take long for the group of them to arrive outside the British Museum. The motorcade was already waiting on the street in front of the museum. The formation was still so large that it was eye-catching.
Especially Mr. Qian and the other old men, looking at the huge motorcade not far away and the heavily armed security personnel standing beside the car, they all gasped and were secretly shocked!
It was only then that they realized for themselves that Ye Tian's powerful strength and high-profile behavior were a hundred times more exaggerated than the legend!
Under the magnificent Greek Revival colonnade in front of the British Museum, Ye Tian shook hands with Prince William, the Director of the British Museum and others one by one and said goodbye, and then led David and the others to his motorcade.
In London in winter, the days are very short.
Although it was not yet half past five in the afternoon, night had already enveloped the entire city. The street lights on the streets, as well as the landscape lights of the British Museum and other nearby buildings, were all lit up with brilliant lights.
Many vehicles coming and going on the street also turned on their lights, illuminating the road ahead.
Soon, the motorcade that Ye Tian and the others were riding in had loudly drove out, left the street in front of the British Museum, merged into the rolling traffic, and headed straight for the Ritz Hotel.
Not long after the convoy left the street where the British Museum is located, Ye Tian's cell phone rang. It was a call from his sister-in-law.
Taking out his phone and looking at the display, Ye Tian's face immediately burst into a bright smile.
When he slid open the screen lock on his phone, his sister-in-law's excited voice immediately came over, sounding extremely kind and clear.
"Xiaotian, we are about to board the plane, flying directly to London. There are three planes in total, two Air China charter flights, and a large transport plane. To be honest, this scene is a bit too exaggerated.
Coming to London this time, there were also many top antique art appraisal experts from the National Museum of China and the Palace Museum, as well as a large number of cultural and museum personnel. Those guys were almost crazy with excitement! ”
"Hahaha, I have expected this situation for a long time. Just watch, when you get to London and see those national treasures that have been lost overseas for hundreds of years, the experts and scholars at the National Museum and the Forbidden City will act even crazier. ! ”
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, his pride was beyond words.
"You did such a great job, my sister-in-law also showed up. The old men from the Forbidden City and the National Museum of China are surrounding me like stars holding the moon. It feels so good!"
"Hahaha, then just enjoy this wonderful feeling. Who made you my sister-in-law? This is what you should be doing!"
Amidst Ye Tian's hearty laughter, the heavy-duty convoy quickly passed through the streets and soon drove onto Piccadilly Avenue.
