"Maria, Leon, you can clean the back of this female statue first, it will take a lot of time, and when we are done cleaning the back of the statue, we will find a way to turn this statue over.

At that point, you will be able to see the statue of Aphrodite of Nidas in its entirety, and enjoy it, but if you don't want to clean it up, I'll have to do it myself."

Ye Tian said with a smile, showing that the carriage and horses were ready to use these free and professional laborers to speed up the cleanup.

As he said this, he also stepped forward and completely lifted the rope net that covered the edge of the statue.

With this movement, the edge of the statue, which was hidden by the rope net, finally revealed its true face, which was the part of Aphrodite carrying a bath towel in her left hand.

The scene was quiet again, and many experts and scholars were all staring at the part of the statue that had just been exposed, and everyone was full of obsession, and their eyes were extremely hot!

It took a moment for the guys to come to their senses.

Immediately afterwards, Maria and Leon nodded in unison:

"Alright, Steven, leave it to us to clean up Aphrodite of Nidas, it's our honor to clean up such a top-notch work of art that has been passed down through the ages!"

Not only them, but the rest of the experts and scholars also responded and joined the team to clean up the statues, and they were all excited and eager to try!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these experts and scholars who study the history of ancient Greece and the Hellenistic period, as well as antique artifacts, and they are not willing to miss it!

"Alright then, ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry for you, this will undoubtedly speed up the cleaning up and restore this famous statue to its original appearance as soon as possible."

Ye Tian smiled and nodded and said, not polite at all.

Then Maria and Leon crouched down again, each picked up a small brush, and began to clean this priceless artifact from the Hellenistic period in earnest.

As for Ye Tian, he picked up what he had just said and continued to introduce this priceless treasure to the audience on the live broadcast end.

"Aphrodite of Nidas" depicts Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, preparing to bathe in the sea, and this statue is not only beautiful, but also the relationship between the skin and the parts is also very charming.

Her upper body leans forward slightly, her left leg is slightly bent, her eyes are fixed on the nearby water, and her body forms an extremely elegant curve, which is very vivid and natural, and expresses the gentleness and delicacy of women to the fullest.

This famous statue of a female body is beautiful not only from the front, but also from every other angle, and it is the most beautiful of all known statues of Aphrodite.

When admiring this famous statue of a female body, you can also let your imagination run wild and imagine the scene of Aphrodite, or Frini, bathing in the sea, which must be very beautiful."

At the same time, the choreographers and directors of the two live broadcast groups also called up some pictures of Aphrodite, the god of beauty, and Frini, an ancient Greek courtesan, in the form of a picture-in-picture, on the live broadcast screen.

Listening to Ye Tian's professional and vivid explanation, admiring those pictures of classical beauty, many people couldn't help but be immersed in it, and their eyes were full of obsession.

After a pause, Ye Tian's voice came out again, clearly reaching everyone's ears.

"When carving this marble statue, Praxitelles used translucent Paros marble, which enhances the elasticity of the woman's skin, giving it a breathtaking look of ice skin.

It's just that this statue has been immersed in the sea for more than 2,000 years, and has been buried under the coral reef, there are many traces and debris of coral growth on it, and the gloss is not very good, but these can be repaired.

Next, we will hire the industry's top restoration experts to restore this priceless artifact, and it is believed that it will not be long before this famous statue of the goddess of beauty will appear in the best condition for everyone.

As a timeless work of art, Aphrodite's posture is so graceful that it has become almost a template, and imitators have admired and copied the famous statue of the goddess of beauty.

Many of the statues of the god of beauty unearthed in later generations are copies of this famous statue, and according to incomplete statistics, this statue 'inspired and inspired' more than fifteen different Venus shapes, and even more.

In the Vatican Museums and the Musée de Munich in Germany, there is a replica of the Roman period, but it is much worse than the original, and the "Kaufmann Head" in the Louvre is derived from this statue.

The Venus de Milo, also created in the Hellenistic era, can also be seen in the famous sculpture of Aphrodite of Nidas

But "Venus de Milo" is a remnant, and the arms have long been broken and lost, but this "Aphrodite of Nidas" is intact, and it seems to me that this statue is obviously more beautiful and valuable"

Hearing this, Leon, who was cleaning up the statue, immediately turned his head and rolled Ye Tian's eyes angrily.

Far away in the Louvre in Paris, his old friend Martinez shook his head and scolded softly.

"Steven, you're such a lucky bastard, it's just that you've found this priceless treasure, is it necessary to belittle our treasure?"

At this time, if anyone hears Martinez's words, they must be able to hear that Martinez is obviously lacking confidence when he speaks!

He also knew in his heart that the treasure of the Louvre, "Venus de Milo" and "Aphrodite of Nidas", was indeed a bit different.

Not to mention anything else, just the names of the two sculptors, there is a huge difference!

Alexandros, who was also a famous sculptor of the Hellenistic era, and Praxitelles, one of the three great sculptors of the Hellenistic era, are not at all on the same level, and they cannot even be compared together!

Ye Tian continued his performance, explaining with his eyebrows fluttering.

"It can even be said that this "Aphrodite of Nidas" by the famous master sculptor Praxiteres is the original god of beauty, and it is also the most beautiful of all the sculptures of the god of beauty!"

When you see the outline of the back of this female body statue, you believe that you have a sense of déjà vu, which looks a little familiar, because you have seen many sculptures derived from it.

According to legend, this famous sculpture was later moved to Istanbul, the capital of Byzantium, before it was destroyed in a fire, leaving no written material and disappearing from history.

But who would have thought that this Aphrodite of Nidas was not transported to Byzantium, nor was it destroyed by fire, but sank in the depths of the Ionian Sea on its way to Rome.

For the next 2,000 years, this famous statue lay deep at the bottom of the sea, sleeping in the dark, until it was discovered by our Daring Do Exploration Company, and it was able to rise to the surface and see the light of day!

This is undoubtedly a good thing for this famous statue, and it is also a very fortunate thing for all the people of the world who love art, and even for Western civilization!"

As soon as the words fell, there was an exclamation of amazement on the ships of the exploration fleet and on the countless live broadcasts.

"Wow! Steven is right, the appearance of this "Aphrodite of Nidas" is definitely a great discovery, enough to go down in history!"

"Steven, this guy is so lucky, he can even find such a priceless treasure, it can make people envy crazy, why can't such a good thing be my turn!"

Just when people were amazed, the sensation caused by the appearance of "Aphrodite of Nidas" has become bigger and bigger!

At this time, the whole of Greece was already as lively as a boiling pot, and Washington, who was far away on the other side of the ocean, had already been annoyed.

Seventy or eighty nautical miles away, two Chinook heavy transport helicopters took off from the deck of the Bataan amphibious assault ship one after another and flew straight towards the sea area where the exploration fleet was located!
