Chapter 2215: Confession of faith


More and more visitors gathered at the entrance of the exhibition hall, but the scene was relatively quiet. Only the voice of Ye Tianqinglang kept coming out, reaching everyone's ears.
Everyone here is listening to Ye Tian's professional and wonderful explanation, and admiring Rembrandt's masterpiece, "The Prodigal Son".
"The youngest son in this painting is a portrayal of Rembrandt when he was young. Looking back, it means that he once ran away and wandered around the world; the prodigal son is suggesting another identity.
But now, the wanderer who wandered around the world has returned home, and his life has been fulfilled since then. Rembrandt's early years were smooth sailing, but in his middle age, he gradually began to fall apart.
However, for Rembrandt, who created this oil painting in his later years, his mood has changed completely. For his previous experience of success and downfall, he regarded it as a failure.
Perhaps it was because he had never remembered the teachings of his mother during his childhood in his creative career. He was far away from his beliefs and without the support of spiritual power, and thus fell into emptiness.
When he finished creating this piece of "The Prodigal Son", his mood has changed completely. He has recovered the faith he had lost, his mentality has begun to become peaceful, but his life has come to an end.
Gorky once said, ‘you cannot lose faith, and you cannot destroy that great love because of doubt.’ Rembrandt’s faith is not only the source of his rich subject matter, but also the pillar of his spiritual world.
"The Prodigal Son Turns Back" presents his powerful inner world and soul belief, supporting him in the second half of his life with nothing and suffering, and still created the pinnacle of human art history"
After listening to Ye Tian's explanation, many visitors at the scene saw the "Prodigal Son Turning Back" again, and they had a new harvest, and they understood Rembrandt's masterpiece more deeply.
At this time, Ye Tian, ​​while explaining, secretly sees through this world famous painting.
Under perspective, everything in this world-famous painting from the outside to the inside is clearly presented in his eyes, without any omission.
In this oil painting on canvas, he saw countless traces left by the artist Rembrandt during his creation, and even the entire creation process, as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes.
More importantly, in the upper right corner of the oil painting, in a relatively dark corner, covered by surface paint, he found several hidden and extremely tiny Latin letters.
However, the specific meaning of those Latin letters, whether they are abbreviations of personal names or abbreviations of place names, is not known for the time being. Now I can only keep it in mind and study it carefully afterwards.
One thing is certain, it is not Rembrandt's personal signature, nor is it a shorthand for his residence in his later years.
Except for these mysterious Latin letters, there is no other discovery in this world famous painting.
While looking through the "Prodigal Son Turning Head", the display wall behind the painting and the entire exhibition hall behind the display wall were thoroughly viewed by Ye Tian, ​​and no corner was missed.
In the process, apart from some pleasing young female bodies, there were no surprises.
This situation was as early as Ye Tian expected, and he didn't feel any surprise.
During the Second World War, the Winter Palace suffered severe damage during the tragic and unusual defense of Leningrad, and some parts were even bombed down and in dilapidated conditions.
After the war, the Soviets rebuilt the Winter Palace and restored it to its original appearance.
Even if the Winter Palace hides some major secrets and even treasures, they were discovered by the Soviets a long time ago during the reconstruction process, and they will never be preserved until now for Ye Tianlai to discover.
In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian has thoroughly looked through "The Prodigal Son Turns Back", which is a small gain.
Next, he retracted his gaze and ended the perspective.
At the same time, he is still introducing this masterpiece to many visitors.
"Let's talk about the "The Prodigal Son" itself. The whole picture is shrouded in warm red light, like a dazzling ruby, which shows everyone in the mirror.
The color contrast is strong in the painting. In the part portrayed by the prodigal son, the yellow inner robe he wears and the stone bricks on his knees are all bright colors. The same is true for his father wearing a red robe in front of him to highlight the main line.
The servant behind the father and the eldest son are in the dark, dark tones. The layer of color applied from dark to light is very transparent, with very few colors. Almost only "red and black" is used, but it can make vivid colors. The contrast is sharp.
The deeper fuzzy black shadows make the figures appear in the brown-red space, especially the father and the prodigal son. The colors are extremely subtle and look like a sketch.
The father's red shawl appeared extremely pure in the picture. Rembrandt uniquely focused the light source on the visual focus of the picture, while blurring other details in the faint dark light and shadow.
In this regard, he was obviously influenced by Caravaggio, the founder of Baroque art and the famous Italian swordsman painter. Caravaggio's artistic treatment of dark shadows and glare is very good.
In this oil painting, the painter's oil paint and the overall spirit are echoed, and there is no way to repeat it. The secondary characters are indifferent and expressionless, which is easily reminiscent of Rembrandt's wasteful situation in the second half of his life.
The long warm light tone and the rich and heavy steps in the painting are all on the bottom of the painting, which makes the painting have a deep sense of space along the square base, and the composition is very clever.
In the painting, Rembrandt used his own very unique technique of oil painting thick pile, using strong brushstrokes to further strengthen the thickness and vicissitudes of the picture, making the picture effect more profound.
This seemingly not gorgeous color and implicit character expression further reveals the inherent beauty and noble spirit of this "Prodigal Son", which can be regarded as a confession of faith by Rembrandt! "
During this explanation, Ye Tian pointed at the details of the "Prodigal Son" from time to time to support his point of view.
At the same time, his whole person is getting more and more engaged, and his voice is getting more and more passionate, as if he is talking to the artist Rembrandt across time and space.
Except for his clear voice~EbookFREE.me~, there was no other voice, and it became quieter.
Looking at the visitors who listened attentively, everyone has an intoxicating expression. They have been completely conquered by Ye Tian's wonderful explanation and have been brought into the artistic conception of this world-famous painting.
Even Mikhail and many of the Hermitage Museum's high-level figures and antique art appraisal experts, as well as Maxim and Natasha, were deeply attracted by Ye Tian's wonderful explanation!
The explanation is still going on, and the obsession in people's eyes is more intense.
"... In the story of the prodigal son in the Bible, the youngest son regained the wealth given by his father. The ending is happy, but in real life it is not the case.
Rembrandt did not change his bleak old age with his amazing painting skills. He died particularly miserably, buried like a beggar.
It was not until more than a hundred years later that the Western art world and the entire Western society re-recognized his greatness and value, and gave this master of art his due status..."
