Chapter 651
As soon as Peggy entered the fourth room, she cheered in surprise.
“Fantastic! Rembrandt’s “Storm at Sea in Galilee” and Vermeer’s “Concert” are indeed here”
With this cheer, Xiao Ran also entered the room.
As soon as I came in, everyone saw it.
In the center of the wall directly opposite the doorway hangs Rembrandt’s Storm at Sea in Galilee.
And next to this Rembrandt’s masterpiece is Vermeer’s “Concert”.
In addition to these two paintings, on that wall, there are three other famous paintings in the Baroque style.
Among them is a personal portrait of Rembrandt, also stolen from the Gardner Museum 30 years ago.
Seeing these paintings, there was an immediate commotion on the scene and on the ground.
“Wow! Counting these famous paintings, the paintings that were looted at the Gardner Museum 30 years ago have basically been recovered, which is a miracle! ”
Worthy of the famous ‘Rembrandt’, the top art beloved by all art thieves, McCann they are no exception!”
“Hahaha”
There was laughter at the scene, and everyone laughed.
After a burst of laughter, everyone looked at the paintings hanging on the other three walls, as well as the many paintings and sculptures on the floor.
There are fewer stolen antique works of art stored in this room than in the third room.
However, every piece of stolen antique art here is a masterpiece and the value is amazing.
Among other things, Rembrandt’s “Storm at Sea at Galilee” and Vermeer’s “Concert” alone have a market value of more than $200 million.
Rembrandt’s personal portrait also has a market value of more than $150 million.
And in this room, top-quality artworks worth about the same value as these three paintings can be described as everywhere.
As Xiao Ran said before, the stolen antique works stored here are mainly Baroque and French classicist works.
These stolen antique works of art, mainly oil paintings and sculptures.
In addition, there are some works of the Flanders School and the Dutch Small School.
On the wall directly opposite the doorway, as well as on the floor, hung and stood works mainly by Baroque art, as well as several works by the Dutch School.
The most notable is Rembrandt.
Rembrandt is the greatest painter in the history of Dutch and even European art in the seventeenth century, and the most outstanding representative of Baroque art.
Vermeer, also from the Netherlands, is the most outstanding representative of the Dutch small school.
There is also the work of Caravaggio, an outstanding representative of Italian Baroque art and the pioneer of Baroque art.
and the works of the Baroque masters of the same Italian art, Caraggio, and then the paintings of the Spanish Baroque masters,
Velázquez and Rivarta.
On the wall to the right of the doorway, there are some works of the French Classicist school.
On the floor in front of the wall, there are also some classicist oil paintings and sculptures.
These include works by Poussin, the founder of the French classicist school, and the master Lorraine.
On the wall to the left of the doorway, as well as on the floor, stolen antique works of art hang, and the genres are more varied.
There are both Rubens and Antoni van Dyck of the Flanders School, as well as some works of academic and realist art.
Looking at the situation in this room, everyone was shocked again.
Elaine and Pierre on the ground were equally stunned.
Xiao Ran glanced at everyone at the scene proudly, and then said with a smile:
“Gentlemen, you can start visiting, enjoy and feel the charm of these top antique artworks!”
“Give everyone fifteen minutes to visit, and when the tour is over, let’s go to the last room, there is still a big surprise in that room”
With his words, everyone suddenly sobered up.
At the same time, everyone turned to look at Xiao Ran.
“Sean, there’s a bigger surprise in the last room? Did I hear you right?
“Could it be that the stolen antique art stored in the last room is more precious than the treasures in front of you?”
Timothy asked impatiently.
Before the words fell, Peggy, who was standing in front of “Storm on the Sea of Galilee”, had also turned his head.
The next moment, the guy asked expectantly:
“A stolen antique art that is more precious than “Storm at Sea in Galilee” and “The Concert”? Could it be the work of Leonardo da Vinci? Hearing
his words, everyone was taken aback and even more excited.
Xiao Ran shook his head and said with a smile:
“You don’t have to guess wildly, you don’t have to worry, in fifteen minutes, you can see those treasures stored in the last room”
Seeing him sell again, everyone was helpless, so they could only endure curiosity and accept this arrangement.
Afterwards, everyone dispersed and began to admire the stolen antique artworks stored here.
Xiao Ran walked to the opposite wall and began to admire the top artworks hanging on the walls.
In just a few moments, everyone has made a surprising discovery.
“Ah! Isn’t this Caravaggio’s St. Francis, St. Lawrence and the Birth of Jesus? Could it be that I’m blinded? ”
Wasn’t this famous painting of Caravaggio destroyed by the Sicilian mafia a long time ago, how could it be hidden here?”
“Am I right? It seems to be the Baroque sculptor Bernini’s Apollo and Daphne, but a bronze version” With
the successive exclamations, the atmosphere in the room has become more and more enthusiastic.
The same is true in front of the large-screen TV on the ground.
While watching live HD video and lively discussion.
Some guys at the scene were holding mobile phones and constantly shooting video pictures on big-screen TVs.
Immediately afterwards, they immediately sent out the videos and pictures they shot.
Either post it on your museum’s website or on your social media.
These videos and pictures sent by their hands soon caused even greater waves in the outside world.
Especially those museums and collectors who have been stolen are very concerned about the situation here.
Even Western governments and the entire world of antique art collectors are paying close attention to these astonishing discoveries.
In a moment, two more priceless masterpieces appeared on the large-screen TV.
They are a painting by Rubens, a representative of the Flanders school.
and a landscape painting by Poussin, the founder of French classicism.
The appearance of these two oil paintings once again caused a commotion on the ground underground and made everyone more excited.
At this moment, Pierre suddenly gently pulled Elaine’s sleeve and whispered:
“You come with me, Elaine, I have a few words I want to ask you” Elaine
turned to look at her father, whose eyes were a little red, and then nodded.
“Okay,”
Pierre then took her aside to whisper between father and daughter.
They walked nearly ten meters to the piano room, away from everyone at the scene.
Without waiting to gain a foothold, Pierre couldn’t wait to whisper:
“Elaine, you told me before that Sean has reached a cooperation agreement with the Gardner Museum and the Philadelphia Museum of Art
” “According to those two cooperation agreements, he only needs to find the stolen antique art of the two museums and get half of it
” “This matter has not changed, right?” What about the rest of those stolen antique art? Will he also be able to take ownership of half of it?
“And those ownerless stolen antique artworks, are they all owned by Sean?” , Now it seems that this condition is too exaggerated”
Elaine looked at her father and nodded slightly.
“That’s right, nothing has changed in these things, this is the basis of Sean’s cooperation with the two museums and the FBI and the Philadelphia police, and it cannot change
” “For example, the just discovered, Vermeer’s “Concert”, according to Sean’s cooperation agreement with the Gardner Museum, this top famous painting now belongs
to Sean” “As for those ownerless stolen antique artworks, all belong to Sean, and the rest of the stolen antique artworks, Sean also has the right to dispose of them, Instead of the FBI Art Crime Unit
” “Ah!”
Pierre exclaimed, stunned in place.
In a moment, he came to his senses, and then exclaimed in a low voice:
“Oh my God! These terms of cooperation are simply bizarre, how could Peggy and Timothy agree to such terms of cooperation?
“What an astonishing fortune! The value of the stolen antique art hidden in this underground shelter is simply immeasurable
” “According to this cooperation condition, this guy Sean is not crazy!” What’s more, he will get a lot of the top antique art, which is crazy!
Elaine smiled and nodded, then explained in a low voice.
“Indeed, this is not the first time this has happened to Sean, you don’t have to be surprised!”
“Sean saw the huge benefits, so he took the initiative to find Peggy and Timothy and cooperate with them
” “Compared with the huge wealth, Sean wants to pocket those stolen antique art, and he is collecting top collections for his private museum”
No surprise, Pierre was shocked again and was directly stunned in place.
After a while, he suddenly changed his tone and asked in a concerned whisper:
“In this joint operation, the benefits obtained by this guy Shaun are enough to make everyone crazy
” “Especially those unowned stolen antique artworks, the number and grade are so high that they even exceed the collections of many top museums
” “But what can you get in this joint operation?” This is your private matter, but as a father, I still want to know”
Elaine did not respond immediately, but looked at her father fixedly, obviously a little surprised.
After thinking for a moment, she smiled and whispered:
“There is something I have never told you, Pierre
“, “Sean gave me some shares of the company at the beginning
of the establishment of the company”, “My current net worth has steadily exceeded 600 million US dollars, and I have 200 million US dollars in cash with bank deposits that can be used at any time”, ”
When this joint operation is over, my net worth should exceed one billion US dollars, are you still satisfied with this answer?”
Saying that, Elaine’s eyes flashed a hint of pride, and she was also a little narrow.
“Ah! A billion dollars in net worth and two hundred million dollars in deposits? Did I hear you right? Pierre
was so startled by this huge fortune that his legs went limp, and he almost collapsed on the ground.
Seeing his performance, Elaine couldn’t help but laugh proudly and nodded.
“You heard it right, Pierre, your daughter has long been a billionaire!”
Looking at Pierre again, he was still stunned in place, his eyes full of incredulity.
Meanwhile, in underground shelters.
Xiao Ran and they had already walked out of the fourth room and walked to the last room expectantly.
Bernini’s Apollo and Daphne
