What caught Wu Di's attention was a neoclassical style oil painting, imitating the outstanding painter of the French Revolution and the representative of neoclassicism, Jack? Louis? Dawit's masterpiece "The Death of Marat". Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Compared with the original, this oil painting is very different in terms of brushwork, composition and color matching, and it can be said to be a terrible imitation from a certain point of view.

However, this bad angle is from imitation, and if there is no "The Death of Marat" that is almost identical to this image beforehand, this painting may not have the potential to become a masterpiece!

In other words, Wu Di believes that there is no problem with the brushwork, composition, and color of this painting. If we cut off the connection between it and the famous work "The Death of Marat" and look at this work independently, it should be said that the author has another interpretation and understanding of the historical event "The Death of Marat".

But it is precisely because of this different interpretation and understanding that a phenomenon of darkness under the lamp has been created, which makes people who are already familiar with the original think that the painting is extremely poor and abandon it! And this is also the reason why Wu Di casually let it go when he browsed it for the first time.

However, an inexplicable feeling made him retreat again, and when he looked closely, he knew that he had found the treasure. The biggest difference between this imitation and the original is in the color scheme, but it is precisely this slightly weird color scheme that gives Wu Di a strong feeling, and the more you look at it, the clearer it feels. This painting is faintly conveying to him a kind of extreme emotions such as sadness, anger, despair, and screams!

Marat, one of the core leaders of the Jacobins of the French Revolution, was assassinated in a bathtub in 1793 by a dissident lady. Dawit, the author of "The Death of Marat", who was originally sympathetic to the revolution and had some personal relations with Marat, wrote this masterpiece after learning of this, intending to set off the evil of murder through moral and personal inspiration.

But this imitation is different, it seems to be trying to express the author's fierce emotions. If Dawit's original work can be seen as a moral outrage and condemnation of the assassination by a neutral person, then the author of this painting is a staunch supporter of Marat, who wants to use this painting to indict the injustice of the heavens against this great leader. Express your anger and jealousy at the assassins!

Wu Di looked at the price, 32,000 euros, it seems that the appraiser of this gallery still recognizes its painting work, but unfortunately, he was imprisoned by the famous original work, you know, the same event, in the eyes of different painters, there are definitely different understandings. However, the appraiser should not be blamed. Who made this guy actually steal Dawit's composition and creativity obscenely, and paint an almost identical imitation that is not a copy?

Wu Di took a look at the inscription, and actually inscribed two lines of words in the lower part of the wooden box like the original: "Dedicated to Marat, David". This kind of nonsensical imitation made him can't help but have an urge to hit the wall, you are a master anyway, and you are so shameless that you make such boring jokes with everyone! You deserve to be reduced to such a point!

However, if he had honestly signed his name, the work must have been hidden deep in his huge treasure room by a wealthy man. And in which turn did he get an Oriental kid to pick up the leak? Even if there is a chance to put it up for auction, I don't know how much more price it will have to pay at that time than the current price!

"Sparrow, buy this painting. Fast! ”

Wu Di walked away after speaking, since he had picked up a bargain, it was better not to meet them, in case he was recognized. Wouldn't the shopkeeper lose a lot of money if he didn't sell it out of a certain mentality?

After looking at a showroom, I didn't find anything else worth selling. Wu Di slowly came to the second exhibition hall, and saw a group of people gathered together at a glance. Pointing at a manuscript on the wall.

The manuscript was a long poem, ten sheets in all, scribbled and in Italian, and he did not know a single word.

Glancing at the note next to it, he smiled, it was part of the second part of Dante's Divine Comedy, "Purgatory", and the gallery also specifically noted that it was suspected to be a manuscript by Shakespeare!

This trick is often seen in antique shops in the country, and even at some auctions. Merchants give some paintings and calligraphy of uncertain authors the name of a famous artist, and then call them Xi's works, plus two words of suspicion, which not only shirks responsibility, but also effectively misleads consumers. The end result is often that some people who think they have excellent luck and extraordinary eyesight are greedy for this bargain and make the boss laugh and make ill-gotten gains.

In fact, people with a little common sense know that this must be fake. The store is not stupid, since he is suspicious, he will definitely go to someone for identification. Even if an expert says it's true, they can ask for a certificate. Even if you can't get the appraisal certificate, you can use it to cause controversy and attract more people's attention. In this way, there will always be a big boss who will buy it as genuine, so why bother to make any "suspected" gimmicks?

Wu Di didn't know Italian, let alone Shakespeare, an Englishman, wrote Italian, but he had his own magic weapon, but if he had doubts, he closed the door and released the book from heaven!

The results of the appraisal made him laugh, the appraiser of this gallery is really personal, and he made the real thing suspicious to sensationalize, and I don't know how he got into this position!

However, why does this old man Shakespeare have nothing to do to copy poems? Could it be that this is what he used to learn Italian as a child? It seems very likely that after this old gentleman became famous in the later period, let alone Italian, even if he wrote something in the indigenous language of a small African country, it is estimated that he will be recognized by people citing scriptures!

Wu Di stood outside the crowd, stretching his neck to find the price, but he was surprised to see that this work was actually going to be sold by auction! Grandma's, this is trouble!

It seems that the appraiser of this house is not doing any gimmick, but hopes that these buyers will give him a free appraisal! It is conceivable that once the auction price reaches a certain limit, the seller will start to think about whether to stop the bid. If unfortunately the one who paid the high price is still a well-known task in the collecting world, it is estimated that they don't even need to think about it, and they will just throw out a sky-high price and take it back into their pockets! In this way, the next time this thing comes out again, it will probably be labeled as Shakespeare!

The problem that Wu Di is encountering now is very troublesome, he can bet, bet that no one will be greedy for this cheapness, bet that the competition will not be so fierce, and bet that there will not be a price that is enough to touch the red line. But will he be able to participate? Once the shopkeeper recognized him, the work would probably not fall into his hands. But the key is that even if you let the sparrow shoot, the face of the Oriental will be recognized at a glance, and when you look at the surveillance, you will know that he is making trouble behind his back, what should I do?

Looking at the time of the auction, there is still more than an hour, it should still be in time, but I don't know if this will work.

Wu Di's idea was to ask the police for help, which of course did not mean calling the police, but asking the police officer who had picked them up at the airport before. Even if he doesn't have time, it's more reliable for him to introduce someone than for him to go out on the street and pull someone up, right?

dialed Yue Ge's phone and briefly explained the reason for the matter, and the old man excitedly shouted to come over,

"Gotta take it! Think about when they robbed us back then, we must not let go of such an opportunity! You wait, I'll bring people over and fight with them......"

Wu Di was in a cold sweat, and he really didn't see that this old man was actually an angry young man! No, at such an old age, it should be called angry......

In fact, he didn't know that in Yue Ge's position, if he had a little sense of responsibility, his life would not be too easy. In fact, every year, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage will negotiate with the former robber states to return the precious cultural relics that were stolen back then. However, on the other side, there are various auctions related to Chinese antiquities that are getting hotter and hotter. In these auctions, the rare cultural relics of China were sold at sky-high prices, and then the price of the entire series of collections rose, resulting in an infinite increase in the difficulty of recycling! That feeling of powerlessness has made this hot-blooded old man dream back at midnight countless times, and he is inexplicably resentful. Now that he finally has this opportunity, how can he blame him for yelling excitedly?

This time he came to Spain, he knew Pierre on the one hand, and mainly wanted to see how Wu Di, who had looted here last time, picked up the leaks. Whether it's picking up the treasures of Huaxia or wrapping up the things of foreigners, this feeling is much stronger than waiting hopelessly in the rear day after day!

Three minutes later, the old man's angry phone call came in,

"There's a meeting in half an hour, and I can't go. But I've borrowed you a beautiful one! You can communicate with her when the time comes, and you can command it remotely. ”

Wu Di waited at the street entrance for ten minutes, and received a call, it was a gentle female voice, but her English was a little lame, and she didn't feel as fluent as him as a rookie.

The details were discussed with the blonde who was about as tall as him, and the two entered the gallery one after the other. Wu Di has already understood that this is the seventh day of the manuscript exhibition, and the auction will be held in a small courtyard next to it, and everyone can enter as long as they register their information and receive a temporary number plate.

After this is done, Wu Di continued to wander around the exhibition hall, he wanted to go to Yan Ju first to see what this guy was doing, such a lively thing, he didn't even come to take a look. (To be continued.) )
