Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 541 Chinese Painting and Calligraphy Unit

The shooting process was much faster. After ten minutes, Ye Tian was already standing in front of the rows of steel exhibition shelves in the room, and began to photograph the many artworks hanging on the shelves.

The first work he was very familiar with was a top-level famous painting that he wanted to own.

The image of the painting soon appeared on the screen of the mobile phone, and Ye Tian's voice followed.

"Everyone, please take a look, I believe you are very familiar with this painting, which is the "Concert" by the famous genre painter Vermeer, which was stolen from the Gardner Museum in Boston in 1990 on St. Patrick's Day!

Of all the known stolen works of art, this is the most expensive painting! As for the authenticity of the painting, I can say with great certainty that this is an authentic Vermeer, no doubt about it! ..."

This is one of the top artworks that Ye Tian cares about the most and makes him the most eye-catching. During the shooting process, he couldn't help but say a few more words!

After the shooting, he reluctantly looked away from this painting and looked at another famous painting next to it!

"What you're seeing now is one of the greatest American painters of the twentieth century, Andrew Wise's outstanding work, "Autumn," created in 1943.

In 2011, this famous painting was stolen from a gallery in Houston. Since then, there has been no news of it. Until today, according to my research and identification, it is indeed the work of Andrew Wise, there is no doubt about it! "

Continue to the next one, it's a landscape painting, it's a pleasure to look at!

Filming begins, and explanations follow!

"This is a beautiful famous landscape painting from Corot, one of the three major landscape painters in France in the 19th century. The painting name is "The Road of Sèvres".

In 1998, this painting was stolen from the Louvre Museum in Paris. Corot is one of my favorite art masters. Based on what I know about his paintings, I am sure that the landscape painting in front of me is definitely authentic! "

"We saw another post-impressionist masterpiece, the painter is Paul Cezanne, the master artist who brought me luck and wealth, the name of this painting is "Landscape of Auvers-sur-Oise".

This is a top-of-the-line stolen work of art, stolen from the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, England, in 1999, and there is no doubt that it is the real thing! I would never mistake a Cezanne painting! "

While filming, Ye Tian explained quickly, and kept giving the most accurate identification conclusions.

His footsteps stopped and went all the way along the display stand.

At this moment, he is like a fish swimming freely in the ocean of art, enjoying it immensely, and his eyes are full of intoxication!

The only fly in the ointment is that you have to keep explaining and giving appraisal conclusions, and you can't stop talking for a moment. It's really a bit hard!

After another ten or twenty minutes, he came to the third row of display racks.

When he came here, a surprise flashed in his eyes immediately, and his eyes became brighter! Shine straight!

There is no other reason for this change. On this tall exhibition stand, there are several traditional Chinese ink and wash landscape paintings!

These top-level artworks from the homeland instantly moved him and firmly attracted his attention.

He was very surprised and a little emotional when he saw Chinese landscape paintings here.

The old guy Thompson knows how to appreciate traditional Chinese culture, not to mention the ink landscape! That's simply not possible!

I don't know what this old guy was thinking, but he actually got a few ink landscape paintings!

Could it be that he also wanted to join in the fun and earn some money from the Chinese after watching the popularity of Chinese antiques and art in the past two years and the soaring prices? This possibility cannot be ruled out!

If you let this old guy find the right way, maybe it's really possible to achieve this goal!

China does not have an archive of stolen antiques and artworks. Once the relevant antiques and artworks are sold through open channels and the thief does not find them, they cannot be recovered!

For an international art thief like Thompson, this is undoubtedly a huge loophole, and there are countless opportunities to make money. How could he miss it?

Fortunately! It seems that they haven't found a good opportunity to sell these antique Chinese works of art in their hands, and they are still here for the time being!

This is something left by our ancestors. Since I discovered it, these treasures will belong to my buddies in the future, and no one should try to take them away!

The moment he saw these ink landscapes, Ye Tian made a decision!

When you go back and negotiate with the FBI art crime team and various museums, you must take all the Chinese antique art here, and it doesn't matter if you suffer in other ways!

Ye Tian has no doubts about the authenticity of these ink landscape scrolls!

These treasures have flowed out from major museums in the United States and Europe, and have already done a very authoritative appraisal. All of them are genuine, and none of them are fakes or fakes!

Besides, Ye Tian's eyes are the best and most authoritative appraisal instruments! Incredibly accurate!

In his eyes, these paintings all radiate dazzling light in different colors, accurately indicating the age they came from!

The charming and seductive halo on the surface of the paintings proves that they are masterpieces with extraordinary artistic value and market value!

After appreciating the paintings for a while, and wandering between the black and white landscapes, Ye Tian just calmed down and raised his phone again to start shooting.

"This is a landscape painting from ancient China, "Dongshan Crossing the Water", a representative work of Ma Yuan, a famous painter in the Southern Song Dynasty in ancient China, with a history of more than 900 years!

"Dongshan Crossing the Water" was originally an old collection of the Chinese imperial garden Yuanmingyuan. It was later looted by the Japanese and brought back to Japan. Since then, it has been kept in the Tokyo National Museum, Japan.

Now I don't know why it is here, but to be honest, as a Chinese, I am very happy and honored to see this famous ancient Chinese painting here!

Although this is the first time I have seen this painting, based on my knowledge of Chinese painting and calligraphy, I can give a very positive answer. This is the authentic work of the Southern Song Dynasty painter Ma Yuan! "

After shooting the video and making the identification, Ye Tian moved to the next painting.

It is still an ink landscape, with a handsome and elegant style, which is very exciting!

"What everyone sees is still a traditional Chinese ink landscape painting from Wen Zhengming, a famous painter in the Ming Dynasty and one of the four Ming masters.

As far as I know, this is a famous painting in a private collection. I didn't expect it to appear here. It seems that the collector has been ransacked by art thieves!

After my quick research and identification, this ancient famous painting with a history of nearly 600 years is indeed the original work of Wen Zhengming in the Ming Dynasty, no doubt! "

Moving forward, what I see is still ink landscape.

This painting is of Jiangnan landscape.

In the painter's pen, the mountains in the south of the Yangtze River seem to be transparent, the water is alive, the trees are green, the stones are moist, and the wind is light! Everything looks very fresh, lively, and full of life!

The whole painting has beautiful scenery, concise brushes, long lines, and the use of ink and water is all dripping and fun, especially the "big wall split" method, which is even more like a generation!

There is no doubt that this is a work by everyone! Top paintings of traditional Chinese calligraphy and painting!

After admiring it in fascination, Ye Tianfang began to shoot, explain, and give the identification conclusion.

"It is now a Chinese art unit, and it is a Chinese ink landscape painting by the famous painter Li Tang in the early Southern Song Dynasty.

This famous painting was previously collected in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and I didn’t expect it to appear here. It seems that these art thieves love Boston so much that they have looted a museum in the city!

I am very familiar with this painting. When I came to Boston before, I had admired it more than once, so I am also very confident in the identification of this painting. It is 100% authentic work by Li Tang! "

After the filming of "Autumn Colors in the Rivers and Mountains", Ye Tian took two more ink landscapes before ending the Chinese painting and calligraphy unit.

What appeared in front of him next was a famous oil painting on canvas!

"Edgar Degas' masterpiece, "Ludovic Lepique and his daughter," was ransacked at gunpoint by three masked gangsters in 2008 at the Bieler Foundation Exhibition Hall in Zurich, Switzerland!"
