Albeni approached the bronze sculpture of the man and waved his hand at his assistant, who went down consciously.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what you want to learn today is the art of carving, and before learning carving, you must first know where the beauty of a sculpture is. Only with an eye for beauty can you carve a beautiful work of art. Let's start with this bronze work, which is a finished work that I carved myself. Can you guess what this piece is? ”

"I don't know what to do." The druid knew the character of Albeni very well, and he didn't know that he could, but he had to speak. At the moment, when this bronze sculpture was brought up, the druid scratched his scalp and didn't think about what it was, so he confessed it first.

Rembrandt looked at this work, and he searched for it if he knew about the art of sculpture, but he did not find it in the famous sculpture art. "I'm sorry, teacher, but I don't know what this piece is."

Zhang Bi didn't have much contact with sculpture itself, so she naturally shook her head and didn't have an opinion, but Sally seemed to think of something, and the next second she said, "I think this work is a little familiar, although I can't tell what it is, but I always feel that he is very similar to a work by Master Rodin." ”

"Like the work of Master Rodin? Tell me what kind of work it is? Albeni asked.

"I probably thought so, too. I can't think of any work. ”

Sally shook her head, but her performance was undoubtedly standing out among the others, and Albeni nodded in satisfaction, only to realize that the Chinese man had not spoken at this moment.

Albeni's face was horizontal, and he yelled at Wang Ding with a hateful face. "I say Chinese. You didn't answer my question this time. I don't think you really want to listen here, so you might as well go out of the way. ”

"No, it's not." Wang Ding did not express his opinion for a long time, because the jade plate in his arms already had a judgment on this work, and indeed as Sally said, this sculpture is very similar to a sculpture by Master Rodin, and the name of that piece has been shown on the jade plate. And than this information, Wang Ding knows far more.

In order not to misunderstand the teacher, Wang Ding said simply. "Teacher Albeni, this work is like Sally said, he is very similar to one of the very famous sculptures of Master Rodin. The name of that sculpture is called the Bronze Age. Of course, it is not accurate to say that it resembles the Bronze Age, but I would like to say more accurately that this work is the "vanquished" of Master Rodin, imitated by Albeni's teacher. ”

"Oh? The vanquished? ”

Several people were stunned, what kind of work the vanquished was, and a few people present didn't know what to say. But for the names of the Bronze Age, Rembrandt, Sally, and the druids are all clear.

"Go on." The doubts of the others did not affect Albeni in the slightest, and he listened to Wang Ding's words and became interested.

Of course, Wang Ding could go on, but Wang Ding didn't want to rely on the hints on the jade plate to show off his knowledge here. "Teacher Albeni. I'd love to go on, but I really don't know what to do. So I hope to learn from the teacher about this vanquished. ”

Wang Ding's modesty suddenly made Albeni's disgust for him disappear, and as the distance narrowed, Albeni soothed the atmosphere. "Okay, let me tell you, and sit down!"

Wang Ding's small performance, Albeni asked him to sit down, through this action, Wang Ding also knew that Albeni was not an unreasonable teacher.

Approaching the sculpture again, Albeni exclaimed, "When the Franco-Prussian War broke out in 1870, Rodin enlisted in the army with blind nationalist patriotism and returned home ill on the way. The penniless Rodin had carved the name of his teacher Carrière on his statue to make money, but was found out and kicked out of the studio. Soon Rodin went to the Netherlands and Italy, where he was impressed by Michelangelo. He hurried back to Belgium and spent 18 months sculpting a man's body. He asked a young soldier with a beautiful figure to model him. He made this statue of a man walking with a stick in his left hand and his hair in his right hand, and the man looked up and stared blankly, which was very innocent and natural. Rodin's naked man is endowed with ordinary humanity, and it shows a sense of human anxiety, shyness, and awe. It was life-size, and Rodin named it "The Vanquished", and the work in front of him was a parody of Rodin's vanquished. ”

Everyone nodded, Wang Ding answered correctly, and the name of the work was called Rembrandt and the druid, which was incredible. But Albeni had another problem at this moment.

"Wang Ding, you have the right name of the work, so you can not answer the next question, and the rest of you will tell me, what do you think of this vanquished person?"

The druid was compared by a Chinese and wanted to win back a city, and the teacher asked and actively grabbed the road. "I think it's very good, this vanquished man shows the positive and optimistic mental state of human beings in that era, the stick in his hand is his protest, he is fighting for freedom, he is crying in his heart."

"No, I think this work should show a kind of awakening, and the man should want to use the stick in his hand to attack and fight against that era." Rembrandt gave a different opinion.

"What about the two of you?" Albeni's gaze filtered out Rembrandt and Druid, who had expressed their opinions, and saw Bi and Sally.

Zhang Bi looked at this work, she felt that the man's muscle lines were very strong, and in that era of belief in beauty, it should be a good artistic sculpture.

"I think it's good."

"I think it's good, too." After Sally had spoken last, Albeni didn't say anything more, he just shouted to the assistant outside.

Then the assistant and a few of his fellow men brought another sculpture.

This is still a bronze sculpture of a naked man, 1.74 meters high. The sculpture realistically portrays a well-proportioned and perfect young male body, with a very natural and vivid posture, with his left leg supporting the whole body and his right leg slightly bent. Toes touch the ground slightly. The left hand is like a staff. The right arm is raised. Hold your hands on top of your head so that the muscles of your trunk and limbs rise and fall. His head tilted back slightly, his eyes closed, as if he were about to wake up from a dream. The whole posture and facial expression were very harmonious, and he stretched his whole body, freeing himself from all restraints, and began to emit his inner strength. The contour structure of the whole body is not only uniform and perfect, but also embodies precise anatomical knowledge.

"What do you think of this work?"

Albeni, if you want to talk about this sculpture alone. It looked much more comfortable, but after the previous work was discussed, it was presented at this time, and everyone still saw a connection between the two.

"Rembrandt, you say."

"I think this work is much better than the previous one, and through this work, I found the flaws of the previous one.

The stick of the previous sculpture spoils the overall beauty of the sculpture. It feels like it's pulling away from the sculpture. However, the second sculpture after removing the stick is more expressively focused on the human body, and is carved into the wood in every place. ”

"Druid."

"Yes, overall. This second sculpture does surpass the first, and the lines of the whole human body are brighter and more comfortable. The man looks more temperamental and spiritual, less of that kind of struggle, I don't know what's going on, it's amazing. ”

The druids were right, but Wang Ding compared the two sculptures and found that there was not much difference between the two sculptures at all, just the difference between a stick.

And just the removal of that stick can make the sculpture glow with a new meaning, and it seems that the shape of the sculpture is really very crucial.

The ultimate expressiveness is not the excellence of a place, not that a person can see the thing at a glance and attract everyone's attention, but that the sculpture has a sense of overall beauty and does not divide a certain part. Perhaps Albeni laid down so much to convey this point.

Wang Ding sensed it, and Albeni naturally saw the comprehension of the students, and continued, "This first sculpture was brought by Master Rodin to participate in the exhibition that year, but "The Conquered" suffered a serious failure at the exhibition. Rasbull's friends encouraged him and suggested that Rodin do away with the stick and rename it "The Bronze Age". Rodin followed his friend's advice. He also felt that the name Bronze Age was very apt for the sculpture, which re-assigned a deep meaning to the statue. And this second sculpture that you see is the Bronze Age of Master Rodin, which I imitated. ”

"The Bronze Age It represents the transition of humanity from primitive societies to the Bronze Age, and it symbolizes the "dawn of mankind" or "the awakening of humanity". As you can see in this sculpture, he realistically portrays a well-proportioned and perfect young male body, his posture is very natural and vivid, his left leg supports the whole body, his right leg is slightly bent, and his toes are slightly touching the ground. The stick had been removed from his left hand as if he were holding a staff, and his right arm was raised, and his hand was no longer grasping his hair, and as soon as this action was established, the muscles of his torso and limbs rose and fell. His head tilted back slightly, his eyes closed, as if he were about to wake up from a dream. The whole posture and facial expression were very harmonious, and he stretched his whole body, freeing himself from all restraints, and began to emit his inner strength. All of this, in fact, is just because of a small change of movement and the removal of the stick. And just this change has resulted in two different sculptures. The first sculpture is an ordinary sculpture, and the second sculpture has become a famous sculptural work of art. ”

Speaking of which, the five of them all know where the key link of the sculpture is that Albeni wants to say, for a perfect sculpture, every subtlety must be carefully carved and studied, and only in this way can a good carving be achieved.

"That's all for the study of the Bronze Age, students, and then I want you to add something to another carving for me, and you need to complete his stretch according to this form."

Saying that, Albeni called his assistant again, and the assistant was already ready, and when Albeni called him for the third time, he brought up a headless and handless sculpture.

When this sculpture was launched, it was clear to everyone. Because the five students present all knew that this sculpture was nothing else, it was precisely one of the three treasures in the Louvre Museum, the goddess of victory of Samotras.

The goddess has an oval face, a straight nose, a plump forehead, slightly upturned corners of the mouth, and a lubricated chin. The expression is dignified, demure and dignified. Slender physique. The left leg is slightly flexed. The undulating rhythm of the curve is revealed. She is plump and holy, soft and simple, elegant and noble, full of youth and life, which is the perfect unity of spirit and body, the harmony and harmony of love and beauty, the natural unity of God and man, and the universe of human beauty. It is an idealized symbol of human beings' pursuit of female beauty.

The image of the goddess also shows exactly the typical characteristics of classical Greek women.

But, of course, the goddess of victory is not complete, her head and arms are missing, but her wings are infinitely reminiscent. The goddess of victory is still considered a masterpiece of ancient Greek sculpture, and the viewer can see and feel the majesty of the goddess of victory from any angle.

Her upper body leaned forward slightly, and her sturdy and plump body, with her majestic and huge wings flying high, fully reflected the majesty of the victor and the passion of cheering for triumph. The sea breeze seemed to be blowing from her front. The thin garment faintly reveals the plump and elastic body of the goddess, and the texture of the dress and the carving of the folds of the dress are breathtaking. The backward fluttering horns and outstretched wings create extremely smooth lines. The wavy lines of the legs and wings form an obtuse triangle that reinforces the forward momentum.

But in the continuous development of history, there are also many people who have thought about adding a head and arms to the goddess of victory, especially her head, the goddess of victory without an avatar is still a kind of missing, people will hope that she can have a bright smile, bright eyes, and a handsome face.

Albeni didn't say much more, at this time he handed the five people a piece of paper and pen, the pen and paper is to the five people to depict the head of the goddess of victory and her arms, of course, this paper already has the original goddess of victory painting, the five people only need to continue to sketch this picture according to the original painting, and the goddess of victory can be perfectly drawn, supplemented with more charm, more meaningful, naturally on the sculpture has the basic painting skills.

Albeni thought that the next step would really be to enter the next round of carving with him, and if he didn't have a foundation in painting and a compositional mindset, it would be absolutely impossible to become a sculptor. So there's no need for him to waste time and his feelings here.

At the beginning of the painting, Zhang Bi's painting skills were good, and when he got the painting of the goddess of victory, he conceived the movements of the arms and the facial features on the head.

The druid was slightly deficient in painting, he drew a few strokes, but those strokes destroyed the temperament of the goddess of victory, and that kind of charm did not increase or decrease, which also made the druid lose confidence.

Sally had thought of the Goddess of Victory many times in her mind, and she thought of the Goddess of Victory as her mother. The depiction of black eyes, black hair, and oriental nose is satisfactorily presented.

The goddess of victory in Rembrandt's heart is naturally Western, so the woman's head he presented is Western blue eyes, blonde hair, straight nose, and arm movements, and borrows from the Mona Lisa's cross on the chest, but as soon as it is drawn, the woman is called to rush forward and spread her wings is limited.

Wang Ding first observed this sculpture as a whole, the goddess of victory of Samoteras can become a classic, its incompleteness is a highlight, like the Venus of Milos, but it is less than Venus is that she lacks the most concentrated communication of the human spirit, the human head.

People's facial features convey spirit and emotion, and Wang Ding did not draw arms, because he felt that it was a bit of a snake. At the moment of writing, Wang Ding originally wanted to draw the head of an Oriental man, but the pen moved wonderfully in his hand, and it was a little uncontrollable.

Surprised, Wang Ding just grabbed the pen lightly, but the pen himself walked on the paper, and Wang Ding's consciousness followed in the next second, and he saw a perfect goddess of victory in his mind.

This? Is there a new ability coming in?

……

"Are you done?"

Wang Ding's pen was still moving, Albeni seemed to see it, but he didn't ask again, "Give you another minute, although the statue of Victory is now a classic, but I believe that if a more complete Goddess of Victory can be painted, the Louvre will consider placing the new Goddess of Victory in the museum for the people of the world to visit, of course, if any of you can really complete a perfect Goddess of Victory, I will also be proud of you." ”

Where did Albeni not see the paintings of several people who had been presented in front of him, Sally's painting would depict the head of an oriental woman, and the complete orientalization of her facial features made Albeni have a sense of distance, and similarly, the Western women of Rembrandt were too westernized, and the restrained posture of the arms did not match the whole temperament of the goddess of victory, and such a painting method could not be applied to the carving of the goddess of victory.

And then there is the woman completed by Zhang Bi, which actually has a bit of a self-portrait taste, just saying that the painting skills are good, but it is completely wrong to say that it matches the goddess of victory.

That druid is not good at drawing at all, his drawing eyes are not like eyes, and his nose is not a nose, so he basically doesn't need to think about it.

At this moment, Albeni was just waiting for Wang Ding, waiting for Wang Ding's painting, and he was actually looking forward to Wang Ding's performance as a Chinese.

"I'm done." Wang Ding looked at the pen and fixed on the last stroke, smiled slightly, and then the whole statue of the goddess of victory was formed! (To be continued......)
