Chapter 335: Dürer's Huge Oil Painting

......, "Big brother, hello, I want to ask, ...... are we?" Stretching out his hand and pointing ahead, Liu Dong asked with a smile.

Hearing this, he glanced at the red ticket in his hand, and then put it in his pocket, the attitude of the thin middle-aged man immediately improved a lot, and he hurriedly replied: "Oh, you ask this! This is not the city has just issued a document to comprehensively restore the old villas in Badaguan, I heard that experts from Canada and Germany have been specially invited to come, so let the people from the Badaguan Street Office first clean up these villas that are in disrepair all year round!"

Hearing this, Liu Dong nodded.

"Looking at this house so dilapidated, I don't think it's a young man, right?" Liu Dong continued.

"No, this house is said to have been built by the Germans before the liberation, anyway, no one has lived in it for many years, otherwise this yard would not be barren like this!" said the thin middle-aged man and pointed to the lush weeds and thick dead branches and fallen leaves under his feet.

"I see!" Liu Dong nodded, "Can I go over and have a look?"

"It's okay to see if it's dirty, it's just a little dirty inside, pay attention when you go in!" For Liu Dong's face with at least five hundred tips just now, the thin middle-aged man happily agreed to his request.

"Thank you, I'll pay attention!" After finishing speaking, Liu Dong raised his feet and walked forward, and Mu Gang and the others also followed, although there were a lot of people, but the people from the two street offices were not organized, and this was not a big deal. There is nothing of value in this dilapidated house that has been abandoned for nearly a hundred years.

Liu Dong walked a few steps, and did not go to the house for the first time, but walked to the side. He stopped in front of a large oil screen in the shadows in the corner. When it first started. He was drawn to this painting. That's why I stopped the car.

The scroll is very large, nearly 9 meters in length, and a little more than 4 meters in height, the content in the scroll Liu Dong has never seen in any book or appreciation album about famous Western oil paintings before, but the rich and dazzling white aura on this painting in the relics Yuanguang cannot deceive people!

Suppressing the surging passion in his heart, Liu Dong stretched out his right hand and gently placed it on the canvas of the oil painting, and then the identification results appeared in the sky above the mustard seed space relics.

Albrecht Dürer, The Liberator's Cry. 1518, Germany!"

"This is Dürer's painting?!" Liu Dong secretly surprised in his heart.

Albrecht Dürer was an epoch-making artist in the history of German art, who spread the forms and theories of the Italian Renaissance to northern Europe, created Zào and laid the tradition and foundation of the German National School of Painting, and greatly influenced the development of German art thereafter.

Albrecht Dürer, a versatile and learned painter, sculptor, architect and art theorist. He is one of the greatest exponents of the European Renaissance and is known as the 'Leonardo da Vinci' of Germany!

I had the privilege of seeing the paintings of this Renaissance master. Liu Dong felt very lucky, but this huge oil painting, Liu Dong has not heard of it, but the content of the picture should be related to the Reformation movement in Europe, in the introduction of Dürer's life that Liu Dong has seen, I know that this German art giant once supported the Reformation movement at that time, sympathized with the Peasant War, and took the initiative to draw engraving illustrations for the pamphlet of Martin Luther, the leader of the Reformation movement, and ended his creative path with the design of the Peasant War Monument.

Therefore, Liu Dong guessed that in the center of this picture, the person wearing a black robe, holding the Bible in his left hand, holding some white paper full of words in his right hand, and shouting loudly on the high platform should be Martin Luther.

However, Liu Dong did not know the specific event of the Reformation reflected in this painting, after all, in addition to the historical knowledge he had learned in previous textbooks, he did not know much about the details of Western history.

But it doesn't matter if you don't know, Liu Dong is determined to get this painting. If such a huge painting of Dürer were to be auctioned, I am afraid that it would not cost 100 million US dollars, and I would not even be eligible to participate.

"You two, I have something I want to ask you for?" Liu Dong walked up to the two staff members of the Badaguan Street Office, who were sitting in the shade of a tree to avoid the scorching sun at noon.

"What's the matter, you say?" The thin middle-aged man who had received Liu Dong's benefits before seemed a little enthusiastic at the moment.

"That's the case, brother, I usually like to collect, this time I saw a few things here with us, I want to buy them, and please be accommodating!" Liu Dong said that Liu Dong put his left and right hands in his pockets, and then took out 20,000 yuan from the mustard seed space and put it in the hands of the two of them in a hidden way.

Looking at the thick red ticket in his hand, the thin middle-aged man and the short-fat companion next to him, there was a trace of greed in his eyes, and after the two looked at each other, they flipped their hands and put the money in their pockets.

They can be said to have collected this money with peace of mind, because the things in this villa are already very dilapidated, and the street office asked them to tidy up the meaning of throwing away the rotten furniture that can't be used, and now Liu Dong actually has such a big capital to buy, then they will sell it to him, and when the time comes, as long as the conclusion of 'the damaged Yan zhòng has been discarded' in the report, there will be nothing at all.

But what they didn't expect was that Liu Dong was so generous, 10,000 yuan per person, which was enough to catch up with their salary for more than half a year. This piece of outer block was in their hands, but it made the two of them happy in their hearts.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, if your brother likes something, just take it, but don't go too far, leave something, our brothers are also good friends!" The smile on the thin middle-aged man's face was particularly bright.

"Hehe, don't worry, you two! I only need two or three things here!"

After finishing speaking, the three of them looked at each other and laughed, tacitly acknowledging each other.

And Xie Zhonglin, who saw this scene from a distance, although he understood the transaction between the two parties, he didn't know what Liu Dong had taken a fancy to here.

"Could it be this oil painting?" Xie Zhonglin shook his head, although this painting was not well painted, but he didn't know what was good.

And just when he was puzzled by Liu Dong's behavior just now, Liu Dong had already walked back.

"Brother Mu, help the handle, put this painting down!"

Listening to Liu Dong's instructions, Mu Gang did as he said, and the two worked together to lay the picture frame flat on the ground.

Gently stroking this authentic Dürer painting that has a history of nearly four hundred years and the paint on the picture has cracked, Liu Dong secretly said in his heart: "For you and me, this relic yuan light is going to shrink again!"

Immediately, when others could not see it with the naked eye, a burst of rich relic light poured out of Liu Dong's hands, and then evenly covered the surface of the painting, and then began to slowly repair the giant oil painting. And this can also ensure that this painting will not be damaged when Liu Dong rolls it up.

Of course, if this painting is too big, even with the frame, it would be too troublesome to carry, and Liu Dong is reluctant to waste the relics to repair it quickly, because if you put it directly into the mustard seed space, although the repair is slow, it does not have to reduce the size of the mustard seed space.

Without further ado, after Liu Dong finished doing something, he asked Mu Gang to carefully remove the frame of the oil painting, and then Liu Dong slowly rolled up the giant oil painting from the side little by little, and when he rolled it, Liu Dong also saw some text behind the painting.

However, because it is German, Liu Dong doesn't know a word, so he can only wait for someone to translate later.

Soon, the original nine-meter-long scroll turned into a cloth scroll more than four meters long and more than 20 centimeters in diameter in Liu Dong's hands.

Let Mu Gang personally hold this precious oil painting and wait outside, Liu Dong walked towards the main entrance of the villa. Because it was too dirty and messy inside, Xie Zhonglin didn't follow up.

Passing through the main entrance, which is nearly two meters wide and about three meters five meters high, you will be greeted by a wide hall with an area of more than one hundred and fifty square meters, probably because it has not been inhabited for a long time, and the hall looks a little gloomy. Most of the sofas and other furniture inside the hall have been moved outside by the workers, and the blank space on the wall on Liu Dong's left side is more than nine meters long, which is believed to be the place where Dürer's paintings were originally secured.

Seeing Liu Dong, a young man in a dark red shirt and very clean, walked in, the busy workers glanced at him, and then they went to their respective busy, and no one spoke to him, a city person.

Walking through the hall, although there is a thick layer of dust accumulated here, Liu Dong can still see the magnificence of the place when it was first built, and the luxurious life of the owner from the luxurious crystal chandeliers, the slightly old but still very gorgeous wallpaper, and the dusty carpet under his feet. However, time has passed, and the original gorgeousness is no longer beautiful after a hundred years.

Shaking his head with a little emotion, Liu Dong came to a corner of the hall, a height of more than one meter, a width of fifty in front of a huge grandfather clock, because the time is too far apart, this world mechanical clock brand, the German "Hermle" 1932 product has stopped rotating.

However, the rich aura on it told Liu Dong that this was a very collectible clock, and this was also the first clock he received. Turning his head, after seeing that the workers were busy moving things, and no one noticed him, Liu Dong put the large grandfather clock into the mustard seed space.

Then walk towards the gorgeous dining room next to the living room. The dining room is open-plan, with a large marble-topped bar in the center, flanked by European-style cabinets and worktops. Although these old furniture are all solid wood and have some value, Liu Dong's purpose is not them. (To be continued......)
