Picking up Leaks in live broadcast: There are Treasures Everywhere in my Eyes - Chapter 825
Chapter 827
With the gallery owner’s words, the two Frenchmen who tried to cut off their beards halfway were immediately dumbfounded.
They were about to argue a few words when they were preemptively interrupted by the gallery owner.
“Gentlemen, you are not people in the antique trade, you may not understand the rules of this industry
” “In the antique shop, if someone is negotiating with the owner about an item, and others cannot intervene at will until the results are released, this is not an auction!”
“Only when the talks between the two sides are over and there is no deal, others can bid
” “You can not care about this rule, but as an insider, I must abide by this rule, otherwise I will not be able to survive in this industry!”
“So I’m very sorry, I can’t accept your offer, unless Sean rejects my offer, you can step in!”
Looking at the two Frenchmen again, they were speechless and their faces were red.
Xiao Ran looked at these two guys with disdain, and then completely cut off their wishful thinking.
“Since the French antique shop has the same rules, it is easy to do!”
“I want this painting, let!”
“Fifty thousand euros, deal,”
he said, and he stepped forward and touched his elbow with the gallery owner.
Jean was stunned for a moment, and then gave a response and finalized the art deal.
“Okay, Sean, deal”
When they touched each other’s elbows, Jean’s eyes were full of doubts and a little apprehension.
Even if the artistic standard of this oil painting is very good, even if it is from the early twentieth century and has a history of more than a hundred years, it has a certain collector’s value.
However, because its origin is not very clear, there is no author’s signature, etc.
The price of 50,000 euros is also a bit high!
You know, this is Paris, one of the most important art centers in the Western world.
Paintings of such a good level, but of dubious provenance, are not uncommon in the Parisian art market!
Unless this is the work of some art master, but I am clumsy and do not recognize it!
Thinking of this, Jean couldn’t help but look at this oil painting again, trying to discover something.
Unfortunately, he didn’t make any new discoveries.
Although the two Frenchmen who failed to cut off their beards retreated to the side, they still stared at the oil painting closely, their eyes full of regret.
They don’t know the true value of this painting, they just regret missing out on a possibility of making a fortune!
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ran completed the transfer, and the money and goods were lost.
After receiving the payment, Jean suddenly asked curiously:
“Sean, did you find anything on this anonymous painting?”
“That’s why I bought this painting, can you tell us about your discovery?” I’m interested!
With his words, everyone at the scene looked at Xiao Ran, and everyone was very curious.
Xiao Ran did not respond immediately, but quickly glanced at the two Frenchmen who had just tried to cut off their beards.
Originally, he did not want to tell the secret hidden in this painting, but in order to severely punish the two Frenchmen, he temporarily changed his mind and decided to tell the secret.
When this secret is revealed, next, it will be difficult for those two Frenchmen not to be fooled!
Pretending to think for a moment, Xiao Ran nodded and said:
“That’s right, Jean, on this anonymous oil painting, I did have some unexpected discoveries
” “I think this is the work of the art master
Lautrec, and it is his painting of the heavy period, that is, the painting of Lautrec two years before his death” “At that time, Lautrec was damaged by alcohol poisoning and could not swing his pen freely”
He had to give up the rapid drawing skills of his heyday and emphasize the character with heavy colors, but other techniques did not give up
” “Due to illness, Lautrec in this period created very few works, but there was no shortage of fine works!”
Not surprisingly, his words directly shocked everyone at the scene.
“Ah! Is this really a painting by the master Lautrec?
Elaine exclaimed first, obviously a little incredulous.
Not only him, Jean couldn’t believe this appraisal conclusion.
As soon as Xiao Ran’s words fell, he immediately walked to this oil painting and studied it carefully.
The two Frenchmen standing on the side were dying with regret, and their eyes instantly turned red.
They still know what the price of the masters Lautrec’s paintings is.
As far as the painting in front of you is concerned, if it is really the work of the art master Lautrec, it is conservatively estimated to be more than 5 million euros!
The sale price of this painting was only 50,000 euros, and in a blink of an eye, it increased a hundred times!
With such an astonishing profiteering, how can it not make people crazy?
Thinking of this, the eyes of these two guys suddenly became redder, and they even wanted to slap themselves twice.
At this point, they had completely forgotten what the rules of the curio industry were.
I only know that I passed by this top artwork and missed a godsend opportunity to become rich!
Looking at the performance of these two guys, a smile quickly flashed in Xiao Ran’s eyes.
This is exactly what he wants to see, the fish has been hooked!
At this moment, Jean suddenly shook his head and said:
“Sean, I admit that the style and painting technique of this painting are indeed very similar to the heavy period works of the master Lautrec!”
“But to determine this conclusion, there must be enough evidence to support it, but on this painting, I can not find convincing evidence
” “At the beginning of the twentieth century, Lautrec has become a famous master, a symbol of Montmartre, one of the symbolic figures of the French art scene
” “There were many painters who imitated him at that time, including some art masters who became famous later
” “This may be a certain art master before he became famous, Imitating Lautrec’s painting, so there is no signature”
Xiao Ran looked at this stubborn guy, and then smiled and nodded.
“Don’t worry, Jean, I’m sure I can find convincing evidence to support my conclusion,”
he said, suddenly pulling out a magnifying glass from his pocket and stepping forward to begin to study the painting carefully.
He pointed his magnifying glass at one of the most dancers in the painting, and searched carefully on that dancer, not even sparing his private parts!
Seeing this scene, everyone was very curious.
Elaine and Fang Yufei’s faces turned red, and they smacked him in unison.
The next moment, Xiao Ran smiled and said:
“Jean, I think you haven’t carefully studied this dancer in the painting, so you haven’t come to an accurate identification conclusion” “This dancer
is actually the famous female painter Susanna. Valadon, she is Lautrec’s first love
” “Valadon is Lautrec’s favorite woman and the woman he hates the most in his life”
Hearing this, Elaine and Jean immediately stepped forward quickly and began to study the dancer in the painting.
“This dancer is the famous female painter Valadon? Where did you see that?
“If this dancer is Valadon, it seems that it is not the right time for Lautrec’s heavy period!”
“How can this dancer in the painting look very young, and should be around twenty years old?”
Elaine and Jean threw out questions as they studied the paintings.
They are all professionals, know both Lautrec and Valadon well and ask very specific questions!
Xiao Ran did not immediately answer these questions, and continued to say with care:
“When Lautrec was young, Valadon loved Varadon to madness, but Valadon, who was still a model at that time, only wanted to cheat him out of his money, and threatened Lautrec several times by pretending to commit suicide
” “The two entangled countless times, until Lautrec was completely heartbroken, they really broke up
” “Since then, Lautrec has never loved any woman deeply, He spent his days in nightclubs and brothels, and contracted syphilis” ”
and later alcoholism, resulting in alcoholism, and died young at the age of 36, to a certain extent, it can be said that it was Baivaradon!”
Elaine nodded, and then said:
“That’s right, Valadon is a well-known scumbag in the French painting world, who may never really love anyone in her life, but she has slagged many art masters!”
“The one who was hurt the most by her should be Lautrec” “Lautrec was
physically disabled, his mind was originally unhealthy, and after being slagged by Valadon, he soon fell completely!”
Xiao Ran smiled, and then continued:
“Because of this, before he died, Lautrec drew the 18-year-old Valadon into this painting from memory, but painted
Valadon as a prostitute” “This is enough to show that Lautrec did not forget his love and hate for Valadon until his death, and this painting can be regarded as a love-hate intertwined work of the relationship between him and Valadon!”
“Of course, there is a reason why I said
that this dancing girl in the painting is Valadon” “Look at the inner right thigh of this dancing girl, is there a red mole, this is a subtle feature of Valadon’s body, it is not a secret in the art world” “About this red mole,
Valadon wrote in his diary that many painters, including Lautrec, used her as a model, and some paintings created also appeared”
Lautrec obviously remembered this feature of Valadon’s body very clearly, so he drew it,…… ”
With his pointing, Jean and Elaine found the red mole on the inner thigh of the dancer’s right thigh in a blink of an eye.
The moment she saw the red mole, Elaine immediately cheered.
Jean was stunned in place, stunned, and his eyes were full of pain.
This is not the end, Xiao Ran quickly pointed out another and stronger evidence.
That is the author’s signature, but it is extremely secretive.
Xiao Ran handed the magnifying glass to Elaine, and then pointed to a hair-thin fold at the bottom of the dancer’s skirt and said:
“My dear, if you look closely at this fold with a magnifying glass, you can see several words and name abbreviations that are so shallow that they are almost impossible to find” “The meaning of these words and name abbreviations
, prostitute, Mary. Valadon, Henry. “I
believe this is enough to explain everything, and it is enough to show that even if Lautrec hates Valadon so much, he is willing to be Valadon’s subordinate to death!”
Before the words fell, Elaine had discovered the words that were hidden deeply.
“Oh my God! Sure enough, there is Lautrec’s signature here, and his curse at Valadon, but hidden in such a shameful position!
“Lautrec is really a lover, but Valadon treats him as a money bag and doesn’t love him at all, which is so unfair!”
“I have to say that this is definitely a tragedy in art history, but for this painting, it is enough to double the value of this oil painting!”
After observing for a moment, Elaine handed the magnifying glass to Jean who was like a funeral Kaoya.
After getting the magnifying glass, Jean immediately looked at the bottom of the dancer’s skirt.
You don’t have to ask about the results!
In the blink of an eye, he found the hidden author’s signature.
The guy was stunned for a moment, then muttered
in dismay, “God! This is actually the work of the master Lautrec!
“And it was a painting he painted for his beloved Valadon from memory before he died, a love-hate memory!”
Hearing this, Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
“Yes, for Lautrec, this is indeed a love-hate memory!”
“Before he died, the last woman he thought of was still Valadon, who he loved to the bone and hated to the point of gritting his teeth
” “Because of this, there is such a dramatic painting!”
Without exception, everyone was completely dumbfounded!
It took a long time for everyone to come to their senses.
Then, a Frenchman standing next to him suddenly asked:
“Mr. Sean, since this painting is so special, is its value very amazing?”
“If you valued the painting, what price would you give?”
Lao Tzu is waiting for you to ask questions!
Xiao Ran turned his head to look at this Frenchman, thought for a while, and then gave an answer.
“Given the strong emotions expressed in this painting, and the poignant story of the love-hate intertwined between the two masters hidden behind it
” “I can be very sure that this is definitely the most valuable and storytelling painting of the master Lautrec!”
“According to the current market conditions, the value of this oil painting should be more than 200 million euros”
Before the words fell, the two Frenchmen had already exclaimed holding their heads.
“What? The painting is worth more than 200 million euros? It was only worth 50,000 euros!
“It’s four thousand times bigger in the blink of an eye, it’s crazy!”
While exclaiming, the eyes of these two guys became even redder, and they looked quite scary.
Compared to them, Elaine and David are much calmer.
More expensive paintings than this, they have seen a lot before, and they have long been accustomed to this huge surprise!
Of course, Jean is not included here.
This guy is still in a state of lost soul, and his mouth is still muttering.
Xiao Ran looked at this guy, then stepped forward two steps and took this painting of Lautrec off the wall.
Seeing his movements, let this come to his senses.
Then the guy suddenly said
, “Sean, I wonder if you’d like to sell this painting?”
“If you are willing to sell, I can contact some of France’s top collectors to buy this painting at a good price!”
“To a certain extent, Lautrec is a symbol of the Moulin Rouge and Montmartre, and he can even be equated with Paris in the nineteenth century!”
“Such an important painting, I hope it stays in Paris!”
Xiao Ran couldn’t help but pause, and then turned his head to look at this guy.
Lautrec, “In the Cafe”
