The geometric abstract painting hanging on the wall that Ye Tian was referring to was very simple and clear at a glance!

On the canvas, which is 1.2 meters high and about 1.5 meters wide, there are only a few squares and rectangular grids of different sizes, lines of uneven thickness, and blocks of red, yellow and blue.

At first glance, many people can't understand what the artist who created this painting is trying to express, and the content seems to be very empty, just scribbling.

However, if you can calm down and savor the painting, you will be able to feel a light rhythm in it, and you can even feel that the abstract painting is like a moving piece of music.

Edmundo turned his head to look at the geometric abstract painting, and then said excitedly:

"I picked it up at a local flea market when I was on vacation in Venice, and I bought it because I saw it had a bit of an abstract taste of Mondrian.

After bringing the painting back to Milan, I asked someone to identify it, but unfortunately it was not Mondrian's work, and on the back of the painting we found the name of the creator.

It was the name of a French painter from the first half of the last century, who lived in the same era as the master Mondrian, and whose origins were unknown and whose works have not been handed down, and this is one of them.

From this, it is likely that this is the painter's imitation of a study by the master Mondrian, and the level of imitation is not bad, that's all, I have priced this painting for 3,500 euros"

After listening to Edmundo's introduction, Ye Tian pretended to think for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"3500 euros, ok, deal, Edmundo, I want this geometric abstract painting"

So saying, he stretched out his right hand to Edmundo.

Edmundo looked at the painting hanging on the wall suspiciously again, then gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and directly shook hands with Ye Tian to reach the art deal.

"Deal, Steven, after the deal is completed, I hope you can also explain this abstract painting, so that I don't get confused"

"No problem, I'll accommodate your request"

Ye Tian smiled and nodded, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Next, he made another bank transfer, then took down the painting that hung on the wall and stood on the ground in front of him.

Soon, Edmundo received the payment and the art deal came to an end.

Subsequently, everyone in this antique shop looked at Ye Tian, expecting him to uncover the mystery for everyone.

Ye Tian glanced at everyone at the scene, then pointed to the head of the god of fire Hephaestus at his feet, smiled and said loudly:

"This Vulcan head sculpture was bought first, so let's talk about this sculpture first, and then talk about the geometric abstract painting later, of course, this is all my family's words, it still needs to be verified"

Everyone at the scene nodded in unison, and there was no objection.

For the appraisal conclusion that Ye Tian was about to give, they did not have the slightest doubt, and they were extremely convinced, thinking that it must be correct and would not deviate in the slightest, which had been proven countless times in the past.

After a pause, Ye Tian continued:

"According to my identification, this sculpture of the head of the god of fire should be created by the famous sculpture master Amenati of the late Renaissance, around 1570, when he was in the peak of his creative career.

He was a famous sculptor, architect, and representative of Mannerism in the late Renaissance, and his most famous sculpture is the statue of the Fountain of Neptune in Piazza della Signoria in Florence.

Unfortunately, the only remaining part of this sculpture by Amenati is now a head, and there are no signatures or markings on it, which makes it difficult to identify and prove.

In view of this situation, we can only start from the creative technique and artistic style, and we can see traces of Mannerism in this historic head sculpture,......"

Next, Ye Tian began to analyze the detailed features of this head to support his identification conclusions.

At this time, Edmundo was completely dumbfounded, stunned in place, muttering to himself, looking dejected.

"Oh my God, this is the sculpture of the master carver Amanati, and it was made in the prime of his career, what am I missing?

As a seasoned antique dealer, Edmundo certainly understands how precious Amanati's sculptures are.

Even if there is only one avatar left, the Vulcan avatar in front of him is worth millions of dollars, to say the least, what a huge fortune!

It is difficult for him to earn such a huge sum of money after working hard all his life, but now he is watching this huge wealth pass through his hand and fall into the hands of this guy Steven.

Thinking of this, Edmundo's two eyes immediately turned red, and his eyes were full of remorse, wishing that he couldn't just rush out of the store and jump into the Grand Canal of Milan, which was just a stone's throw away!

The fact was just as he expected, Ye Tian quickly finished explaining, and then gave the valuation of this Vulcan avatar.

"There are very few sculptures in Amanati's hand-me-down, and almost every one of them is a high-quality work of art that is hard to come by, and this Vulcan head is no exception.

In the past ten years, there has been no sculpture of Amenati on the antique art market, and there is no auction price for reference.

In this case, I can only give a rough estimate based on my own experience, and according to my estimates, the market value of this Vulcan avatar should be at least around six million euros."

Before the words fell, an exclamation had already sounded at the scene.

"Wow! about six million euros, it's such an exaggeration, it's just a remnant of an avatar, and it's worth so much."

"It's just a head, and if the torso is also there, and the sculpture is complete, then it will definitely cost more than 30 million euros, and maybe even more!"

In the exclamation, Edmundo was about to die in distress, he felt that his heart had been stabbed into a hornet's nest, bloody and miserable!

But this is only the beginning, and the heavier blows are yet to come.

When the exclamation at the scene fell slightly, Ye Tian immediately pointed to the geometric abstract painting, smiled and said:

"After examining Amenati's Vulcan head sculpture, let's talk about this geometric abstract painting, and I can say with great certainty that this is definitely a priceless work of art.

Based on this judgment, combined with the creative techniques and artistic styles shown in the painting, the answer is already coming out, this painting must be the work of Mondrian, a master of geometric abstraction.

Looking at the career of the abstract master Mondrian and comparing his works from different periods, we can see that this painting is very similar to those of his New York period.

From this it can be seen that this painting should have been created in Mondrian's later years, at the height of his artistic career, when he produced very limited paintings.

As for the signature on the back of the painting, it should not be the signature of the creator, but the French painter who lived at the same time as Mondrian, marking the ownership.

It was his casual signature that misled many people into believing that it was not a masterpiece by the master Mondrian, but an imitation.

It is not known how the French painter got his hands on this top-notch work of art, perhaps as a gift from Mondrian, and the two may have been very close friends.

Based on the popularity of Mondrian's paintings in the auction market over the years, combined with the quality of the painting itself, I value this painting at around 55 million euros,......"

Before the words fell, the scene was completely fried.

"Oh my God! 55 million euros, such an incomprehensible painting, is so expensive, it is a bit of an exaggeration!"

"55 million euros, which is infinitely close to the highest price for a Mondrian work, if this painting is auctioned, it may set a new record!"

Looking at Edmundo at this time, his heart had already sunk into the endless abyss, and he was about to faint with regret.

It was only after a while that the guy came to his senses.

Immediately afterward, he stared at his blood-red eyes and said in a trembling voice:

"Steven, congratulations, you have harvested two priceless top works of art, it seems that I am really blind, the level is too bad, and I have nothing to say about being ransacked by you guy.

Now it's time for you to make good on your promise? I have a lot of antique art in this antique shop, but I have overlooked, please point out one or two pieces for me?"

Ye Tian nodded lightly, then said with a smile:

"Edmundo, you don't have to be too frustrated, although I bought two top antique artworks, you still have a few good treasures here, all of which are worth a lot of money.

Among them is an alternative painting from the early part of Picasso's career, which is quite rare and valued at around 5 million euros based on the current art market,......"

"Wow! Awesome, buddy is rich"

Edmundo cheered directly, like crazy, startling everyone at the scene.
