Around five o'clock in the afternoon, the Uffizi Gallery's northern painter showroom.
At this time, Ye Tian and the others were standing in front of the "Three Doctors" by Leonardo Da Vinci, one of the three masters of Renaissance art, and admiring the treasure of the Uffizi Gallery.
"The Three Doctors Come to Dynasty" is an oil painting created by Leonardo da Vinci in 1481. It is very large, about 2.5 meters high and about 2.5 meters wide. It is an unfinished work.
The reason why it is said to be unfinished is that when creating this oil painting, Leonardo left Florence halfway to Milan and left the unfinished painting in Florence.
Even so, the artistic value of this painting is extraordinary. It has a very important position in the history of Western art, and it is shrouded in many mysteries.
This has attracted countless experts and scholars in the industry, as well as art lovers, who have been studying this painting for years and years, trying to unravel the mystery that is shrouded in this painting.
"The Three Magi's Coming to the Kingdom" is based on the story of the three Oriental Magi's coming to worship at the birth of in the Bible.
In this unfinished work, Da Vinci did not simply list the relevant characters from a narrative perspective, but used intensely contrasting composition and image performance to show his artistic innovation.
The Virgin, the Holy Child, and the three Doctors of the East under Leonardo's brush form a stable triangular composition, but the surrounding people circle around with excited gestures, like a vortex of crowds.
The architectural relics drawn on the background with precise perspective and the horses leaping forward also form a strong contrast.
When portraying the foreground figures, especially the onlookers, Da Vinci chose dark tones to allow the figures to flash out of the shadows, contrary to the clearly revealed characteristics of 15th-century paintings, and strive to be subtle and subtle.
This artistic expression is exactly the smoke-like tone created by Leonardo da Vinci.
Everyone stood in front of the painting quietly admiring it for a minute or two before Anderson whispered, full of doubts:
"Steven, tell you about this famous painting. I know the story of the three doctors in the Bible, but to be honest, I don't understand this painting by Leonardo."
As soon as his voice fell, Betty nodded and said:
"The same is true for me. The story of the Three Doctors' coming to Korea is not unfamiliar, but this painting by Leonardo da Vinci gives me a feeling of being in a cloud and mist. I can't see through it!"
The other people on the scene are the same, basically can't understand this famous painting. They all looked at Ye Tian and looked forward to his professional explanation.
Ye Tian turned his head to look at his wife, then glanced at the crowd, then smiled and said loudly:
"You can't see through this "Three Doctors", it's normal. If you can see through this painting and uncover the fog that covers this painting, it will definitely cause a huge sensation.
In the past five hundred years, countless painters, critics, antique art appraisers, and art lovers have studied this painting in depth, but no one dares to say that he can see it through.
Hearing these words, everyone at the scene couldn't help being speechless.
"Wow! People have not studied the secret hidden in this painting for more than five hundred years. Is it possible that this painting is also related to the famous Da Vinci code?"
"Da Vinci seems to like to do such things very much, hiding secrets in his paintings. The famous "Mona Lisa" has many unsolved mysteries, and this is also true of "The Three Doctors"!"
Amidst the heated discussion, people became more interested in this outstanding painting by Leonardo and were full of expectations for Ye Tian's next professional explanation.
When the voice on the scene fell slightly, Ye Tian immediately continued:
"Everyone is right. This "Three Doctors" is also related to the famous Da Vinci Code, but it is different from the creation time of "Mona Lisa" and the secrets hidden on it are different.
Next, I will explain this mysterious painting by Leonardo da Vinci for everyone. With my observation and understanding, I will try to interpret the fog that has shrouded this famous painting.
"Papa Papa"
There was enthusiastic applause immediately, everyone was applauding for Ye Tian, everyone was excited and full of expectations.
After the applause fell, Ye Tianqinglang's voice came out immediately.
"The Three Doctors Come to Dynasty" is an oil painting created by Leonardo da Vinci in 1481. Later, because he was going to Milan, he could not complete the painting, so he left it in Florence.
When he created this painting, Leonardo was only 29 years old. It was also the first important painting in his life. Among the 15 works of Leonardo in existence, it can be regarded as a treasure.
Although this is an unfinished work, it indicates that Da Vinci's artistic style has matured. The artistic creativity he showed in this painting has far surpassed his teachers and peers.
His dark-toned painting method makes the figures stand out from the shadows, breaking through the clearly revealed characteristics of traditional painting. The emergence of this painting heralds the arrival of the Renaissance style.
Through this unfinished masterpiece, people can more deeply understand Da Vinci's psychology, his way of working, and his handling of various Christian symbols and traditional Florentine imagery.
In this painting, we can also see his extraordinary sensibility for force theory and vortex movement. This is one of the major reasons why he is different from other painters of his time, and is his genius.
In addition, the painting also reveals other information. On the far right of the painting, there is a tall young man in a robe standing. It is almost certain that it is a self-portrait of Leonardo at the age of 29."
With that said, Ye Tian pointed his finger to the right of the famous painting in front of him, and pointed out the unclear figure on the canvas.
Following the direction of his finger, everyone on the scene looked there, and soon saw the young man on the canvas.
"Hey! There really is a tall young man there, Leonardo looked like this when he was young!"
"Really, it's a secret, although many people know it"
There was a lot of discussion at the scene, and everyone was discussing enthusiastically.
After a short pause, Ye Tianqinglang's voice came out again, immediately covering all the voices on the scene.
"The arrival of the Three Doctors is one of the most frequent themes in Renaissance paintings. The Three Doctors of the East came to Bethlehem to pay tribute to the newborn Christ. There are many paintings on this theme.
Da Vinci showed all the traditional elements of this theme in this painting, but he was bold and innovative in dealing with group portraits, which is completely different from the paintings of the same name by other artists.
The characters in this painting are not on the road, but in a stormy vortex. There are more than 60 images of people and animals, each with its own characteristics and no similarity.
In its unfinished vague form, the numerous images make people feel confused. The group of pilgrims with respect and curiosity seem to be a mob.
The crowd surrounds the Virgin and Child~EbookFREE.me~ Although the Virgin and Child is the center, the surrounding crowd makes the Virgin and Child seem weak, as if there is something to swallow them.
This threatening swirling crowd not only shows the symbolic gift presented by the Three Doctors of the East, but also indicates that the future of this child must be extraordinary,..."
Ye Tianqinglang's voice continued to be heard, echoing in the northern painter's showroom, and reaching the ears of every visitor on the scene.
People were watching the famous painting in front of them while listening to Ye Tian's explanation. Everyone's mind was already brought into this painting by him.
At the same time as the introduction and explanation, Ye Tian has once again opened the perspective and looked at the "Three Doctors' Coming of the Kingdom" by Leonardo.
This is one of the main reasons he came to visit the Uffizi Gallery to see if he could find something in this famous painting by Leonardo.
Before at the Louvre in Paris, he found some mysterious characters and Fibonacci sequences in both "Mona Lisa" and "Madonna of the Rocks", maybe this painting can also be found.
