The architectural style is not only the medieval classical architectural style, but also the British rural garden style. It attaches importance to the combination of flowers and green plants, matches the natural scenery, and integrates the architecture, culture and background of different eras to form the mainstream.
The two architectural styles complement each other perfectly, and integrate elements of luxury, beauty, and countryside.
I feel that Chen Rui has the luxury of the British palace architecture, the beauty of a beautiful villa style painting, the closeness to nature, the breath of fresh air, and the natural pastoral smell of the soil.
After visiting the manor, let Chen Rui be envious.
If I could live in such a place for a lifetime, life would be perfect.

Since the establishment of this collection room, for more than 400 years, it has collected more than 2,000 artworks from various countries and eras of the world, including furniture and decorations from the Middle Ages. Paintings, sculptures, coins, etc., among them are four works by Picasso, Andrew Wise and Monet. In addition, there are ancient Chinese ceramics, bronzes, Egyptian gold art, Japanese lacquerware, etc. "Earl Hill Take Chen Rui to the collection room of the manor and turn to Chen Rui.
Earl Hill's tone was a little proud.
Chen Rui nodded.
Chen Rui understood the pride of Count Hill.
Westerners have a special pursuit of art and are regarded as a symbol of nobility, taste and wealth.
A simple example, for example, in Europe, when it comes to a famous manor, the first thing to mention is the amount of artwork in the manor, the quantity, quality or not, etc. These will greatly enhance the reputation of the manor.
If you collect a few masterpieces of famous western masters such as Picasso, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Monet, people in Europe will remember this manor.
Next, under the leadership of Earl Hill, Chen Rui visited his collection room.
The collection room is large in size, built on the ground floor and opened into a huge basement.
The basement is made of smooth and smooth rock.
The basement maintains a dry environment for a long time, and the temperature is moderate, which is conducive to the long-term preservation of artworks.
The structure of the basement consists of a corridor with many large and small cells.
Sound-activated sensor lights are installed every ten meters in the corridor, and sound-activated sensor lights are also installed in each cell.
When a person walks by, the voice-activated sensor light automatically turns on, and when the person leaves, the voice-activated sensor light goes out automatically.
格 Each category stores artworks of one category or one country. There are many kinds of artworks stored, and the categories are very complete.
Every cell is almost an art exhibition hall.
"This is a medieval crown."
"This is a gold Sulledes, a gold coin originally invented by ancient Rome. At that time, generally only wealthy Roman high-class people, merchants or soldiers possessed this type of coin."
"This is a painting by Monet. Monet is one of the founders of Impressionist painting and is the most influential of the Impressionist masters. This painting is called" Water Lily & gt; "and is very representative of Monet A painting. "

Uh ...
Earl Hill Hill introduced Chen Rui's artworks from his family more than 400 years ago.
Appreciated Western paintings, sculptures, coins and other artworks.
A piece of art, a piece of exquisite work, full of artistic flavor, so that Chen Rui's eyes are full of feast.
Next, Chen Rui followed Earl Hill to the next cell.
"Here is the artwork from China." Count Hill turned to Chen Rui.
The grid is very large, and a large amount of Chinese art is stored in the grid.
There are porcelain, bronze, jade, calligraphy and painting, coins, Buddha statues, etc., and even pottery and stoneware from the old age, there are a wide variety of categories, all of which are complete, exquisite and rare. Excellent products, seeing Chen Rui dazzled.
Here, Chen Rui saw Xu Beihong's horse and Qi Baishi's shrimp.
Suddenly, Chen Rui stopped in front of a piece of porcelain.
Seeing Chen Rui's footsteps staying in front of a piece of porcelain, Count Hill introduced, "This is a piece of Ge Kiln porcelain, called the Ge Kiln Octagon Bottle of Song Dynasty. In 1993, this Ge Kiln porcelain appeared at Christie's auction. , I took it for 890,000 pounds. "
Chen Rui nodded.
As an antique lover, how could you not know Geyao porcelain.
One of the five famous kilns in China, in the aesthetics of ancient literati, pursued a pathological defect beauty. During the firing process of Ge Kiln, yellow and black cracks of 'gold wire and iron wire' were formed. This strange defect became a people Greatly sought after element.
There are hundreds of pieces of Porcelain Porcelain in the world, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com and Taiwan and the North Palace Museum have 190 pieces, and the North and Beijing Palace Museum have dozens of pieces.
I did not expect to be able to see a fine piece of Geyao porcelain here and appreciate it from a close distance.
"This is ..." Chen Rui suddenly saw two items, which immediately shocked him.
This is two bronze beast heads.
One is a snake head and the other is a sheep head.
The castors are delicate, and the nuances such as the folds and fluff on the head of the beast are clear and vivid, very vivid.
This is the viper and sheep in the beast head of the zodiac of Yuanmingyuan.
When I mentioned Yuanmingyuan's Zodiac Beasthead, I had to mention Yuanmingyuan.
This is a pain for all Chinese people.
In 1860, the Allied Forces of the Eight Kingdoms invaded China, the British and French Allied Forces burned the Yuanmingyuan, and the rough count of cultural relics was 1.5 million, from the bronze ritual vessels of the pre-Qin Dynasty to the celebrities of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. All kinds of strange treasures, including the Yuanmingyuan Zodiac Beasthead.
Now, five bronze heads of cow, tiger, monkey, pig and horse have been collected in Poly Art Museum.
Moles and rabbits are in the National Museum of China.
Nine dragons are in Taiwan and the Bay and are well preserved.
Finally, the whereabouts of the snake head, sheep head, chicken head, and dog head are still unknown.
锐 Chen Rui did not expect that two of the remaining 4 pieces appeared here.
Chen Rui made up his mind to buy it.
