As far as the eye can see, Leonardo da Vinci's legendary painting, "The Three Wise Men Come to the Dynasty", was instantly seen by Ye Tian, from the surface to the inside, at a glance.

On the surface of this painting, he saw many traces of clumsy alterations, as well as pigments that did not correspond to the period when the original painting was created, with a difference of nearly 140 years.

The smearing of these paints is coarse and uncory, a far cry from the fame for which Leonardo da Vinci was famous, and the traces of this smearing are found throughout the painting.

Without careful observation and identification, it is easy to think that this is a forgery and not the real work of Leonardo da Vinci himself.

In fact, in the history of Western art, there are quite a few people who think so.

Fortunately, after entering the modern era, through a series of high-tech tests, these doubts were eliminated and it was confirmed that this painting was indeed the authentic work of Leonardo da Vinci.

It is these clumsy traces of modification that confirm some important research conclusions.

When creating this painting "Three Wise Men Come to the Dynasty", Leonardo da Vinci made some revolutionary changes in his creative technique, which distinguishes it from all other paintings of the same name.

This includes Botticelli's 1475 painting of The Coming of the Three Wise Men, also in the Uffizi Gallery and on display in the 15th-century Florentine Gallery.

However, this revolutionary change of Leonardo da Vinci was not accepted by the conservative clergy.

The clergy who commissioned him to create this painting expected Leonardo da Vinci to present a wonderful traditional picture celebrating the birth of Jesus, but da Vinci did not meet the expectations of the clergy.

The chaotic and ugly-looking figures around the Virgin and Child are already unsettling, and it is even more unheard of that Leonardo da Vinci actually painted a scene of a fierce battle in this painting.

Seeing Leonardo da Vinci's sketch, how could the priests possibly accept such a rebellious "The Three Wise Men Come to Court"?

As a result, the rebellious Leonardo da Vinci abandoned the creation of the painting, and the unfinished work was discarded in a leaky warehouse, where no one cared about it.

Many years later, when Leonardo da Vinci's work became popular on the art market and became a valuable bestseller, it was remembered and cleaned up.

An anonymous and botched artist altered the manuscript and painted it to turn it into a classic religious painting that sold better, while Leonardo da Vinci's true vision was hidden under heavy paint.

While secretly seeping, Ye Tianqing's voice still echoed in the exhibition hall and kept reaching the ears of everyone on the scene.

“...... Returning to Leonardo da Vinci's self-portrait in the painting, Leonardo da Vinci's way and technique of showing his self-image here are almost exactly the same as those of Botticelli in his painting of the same name.

If you have come to the Uffizi Gallery, you must have visited the painting "The Coming of the Three Wise Men" by Botticelli in 1475, which is on display in the 15th-century Florentine School.

In that painting, there is a young man with his body turned to the outside of the painting, which is believed to be a self-portrait by Botticelli, almost exactly the same as where Leonardo da Vinci is located in this painting.

Because the tempera painting was much earlier, it is clear that Leonardo da Vinci had seen the painting and borrowed from it, and why he did it?

Next, let's analyze this painting from the religious aspect, first of all, I want to state that I am an atheist, just on the facts, don't think about it!"

Hearing this, everyone at the scene couldn't help but nod lightly, and there was no objection.

At the same time, everyone secretly admired in their hearts.

Steven, this guy is really cautious to the extreme, there are no loopholes to catch at all, no wonder he can mix up the wind and water, it's really not for nothing.

After a pause, Ye Tianqing's voice came out again.

"Everyone must have seen that in Leonardo da Vinci's "The Three Wise Men Come to Court", the image of Joseph, the father of Jesus, is not visible, which is a huge question that has plagued people for more than 500 years.

In the story of 'The Three Wise Men Come to the Pilgrimage', Joseph is a very basic element, and the other elements basically appear in this painting, except for the lack of Joseph's image, which is puzzling.

This has never been the case in the paintings of the same name by other artists, except Leonardo da Vinci, who always excluded Joseph from the Holy Family, and the same is true of Our Lady of the Rocks!

No one knows the answer, maybe only Leonardo da Vinci himself knows, and here, I will not speculate, maybe one day, someone will be able to solve the secret.

In Leonardo da Vinci's "The Three Wise Men Come to Court", there are several details with a bit of religious connotation, which are worth pondering, one of which is the tree in the center of the painting.

The roots of the tree meander downward, as if to touch the head of Christ, alluding to Isaiah's prophecy that 'a branch will grow from the trunk of Jesse, and his root will grow into a branch'

The dilapidated stone building is overgrown with bushes on the outside, and the dilapidated house is a recurring symbol in the painting, alluding to the ruined 'house of David', which will be restored by the birth of Christ,......"

In the process of explaining, Ye Tian's eyes had already penetrated the surface of the painting and saw deeper secrets.

When his gaze penetrated the surface of the painting and saw what was hidden underneath, the surprise finally appeared, and he almost cheered for it.

Beneath the layer of inferior paint that was later applied to the surface of the painting is a smudge-white layer of leaden white, which is evidence of the secondary manuscript.

Under this layer of lead white is Leonardo da Vinci's original creative sketch, and it is also the original appearance of this "Three Wise Men Come to Dynasty".

On the initial draft, Ye Tian clearly saw Leonardo da Vinci's self-portrait when he was twenty-nine years old, which was much clearer than the surface of the painting, the figure was fuller and more vivid, and the lines were smoother.

On the painting visible to the naked eye, the two fierce horses are fighting, and under the perspective, there are two more medieval knights on the horseback, and the two sides are fighting fiercely.

This scene of fighting is one of the main reasons why Leonardo da Vinci's "Three Wise Men Come to Court" was spurned by conservative clergy and regarded as a great rebellion.

Compared with the surface of the painting visible to the naked eye, under the perspective, Ye Tian saw more figures, and thirty new figures appeared around Jesus and the Virgin Mary.

One of them, a group of masons who seem to be renovating a church, seems to symbolize the reconstruction of the homeland after the war.

And there is a picture in this work, at the far end of the painting, on the distant horizon, there is a lonely and leisurely elephant, which is another puzzling riddle left by Leonardo da Vinci!

These findings, while surprising, are not new.

Less than a decade ago, someone using infrared scanning technology discovered these secrets, causing a huge sensation at the time.

The discoveries that really surprised Ye Tian and almost cheered for it were of course not these.

On Leonardo da Vinci's original manuscript, he again saw several mysterious characters and a set of Fibonacci sequences, different from what he had seen in the Mona Lisa and Madonna of the Rocks.

These mysterious characters and the Fibonacci sequence, each hidden in different places, are extremely difficult to spot.

There are four mysterious characters, two of which are Leonardo da Vinci's initials, and the other two characters whose meaning is unknown, are hidden among the masonry at the base of the church.

The new Fibonacci sequence is hidden in different parts of the painting, each of which is very hidden.

After taking a quick look at these mysterious characters and the Fibonacci sequence and keeping them in mind, Ye Tian began to secretly think about their meaning.

Combined with his previous discoveries on two Leonardo da Vinci paintings, Mona Lisa and Madonna of the Rocks, he boldly offered a speculation.

The combination of those mysterious characters may be a place name, or a clue to a treasure somewhere, and the Fibonacci sequence may be a string of passwords to open the treasure.

As for what is in this treasure, whether it was buried by Leonardo da Vinci himself, it is unknown for the time being, and only the moment the treasure is found, can this five-hundred-year-old riddle be solved.

While seeing the original manuscript of Leonardo da Vinci, as well as the mysterious characters and the Fibonacci sequence, Ye Tian also saw the poplar plank under the manuscript, the cross behind it, and so on.

Even the wall behind this painting, as well as the exhibition hall on the other side of the wall, were seen through by him, and they were all seen at a glance!

His clear voice still reverberates in the exhibition hall.

"After Leonardo da Vinci left Florence, the painting "The Coming of the Three Wise Men" disappeared from view and did not reappear in the Medici collection until the beginning of the 17th century,......
