Chapter 262: I can't help it
The next morning, Fang Yi drove towards the museum. When he arrived at the door, he called Nick, although he used to come often, the janitor had not forgotten Fang Yi's appearance, but without a pass, Fang Yi had to stay at the door and wait for Nick to come and pick him up.
Standing next to the car, waiting for Nick to come over, Fang Yi opened his mouth and asked, "How much has the painting been damaged?" ”。
Nick showed the pass card in his hand to the janitor, and then said to Fang Yi: "The area destroyed is very large, about one-fifth of it is damaged!" ”。
After taking the pass, Fang Yi pinned it to the pocket of his jacket and walked in side by side with Nick.
When he arrived at Nick's studio, Fang Yi directly saw a work on the workbench, and when he picked it up, he knew that it was indeed Ingres's work, and it was Ingres's work at his peak, and it was also Ingres's best female body work, the young woman on the picture had just come out of the bath, but now a large piece of the bath and floor tiles under the canvas had become dim, and it was basically impossible to see what it looked like, only some faint lines and outlines could be seen.
"How did it get like this?" After carefully studying the work for five or six minutes, Fang Yi asked Nick with a little regret. In his later years, Ingres was full of flowers and glory, and unlike the hard-working artists, his life was quite comfortable, enjoying a supreme position in the art world at that time.
As a rule, his work shouldn't be ruined like this! Because he was a master when he was alive. His works should be well preserved.
The original owner had no idea that the painting hanging behind the sofa in his home was the work of Ingres, just that it was an ordinary realistic work of the human body! I took it off when I redecorated it. Throw it upstairs in the storage room, and then it will be like this. When the original owner took it for sale when he was in the middle of the old thing, fifteen euros went into the hands of a person who saw that something was wrong. I bought it and took it to us for appraisal, and it was confirmed! Nick looked at the work and sighed.
Nick didn't envy others for fifteen euros to catch a genuine work, but was sad that such a good work was ruined like this. Similarly, Fang Yi also felt the same way, for the master works that he liked and had a little admiration, he became like this in front of his eyes, it was really a sigh!
"Have you decided on a repair plan?" Fang Yi asked as he looked at some of the colored sketches on the workbench. There are now some matching color sketches on the workbench, about the color of the floor tiles and the color scheme of the bottom of the bath.
"Here's what I wanted!" Nick picked up the third plan. Fang Yi shook his head after looking at it, the color of the bottom line in the color matching was not correct, and the color of the floor tiles was also deviated. Nick was too obsessed with color matching.
Fang Yi pointed out a lot of problems in his heart, and he didn't think about it, and he automatically added the original color as soon as he saw the work in his mind, and where would there be this thing in Nick's mind, and only a small piece of the bottom line pattern under the bath could be seen. And it's gray. Who could have guessed this thing!
"This one is the plan we decided!" Nick pointed to the restoration plan at the top of the table and said to Fang Yi, "I think this kind of color matching is the most perfect we can think of!" ”。
Looking at the plan that Nick pointed out, Fang Yi began to get entangled, the difference between it and the original work in his mind was that the color was too biased, and it was not as good as Nick's own plan that he saw just now.
Thinking that such a color would be painted on this work of Ingres's peak, Fang Yi's heart was uncomfortable, not to mention.
Would you like to remind Nick? It's a reminder, so how to remind it? Turning around, Fang Yi walked to another glass box placed on the wall, stretched out his head to look at it, and opened his mouth without thinking about it: "Who sent another copy of Rubens's forgery?" ”。
"What is a forgery?" Nick was stunned. Ran to Fang Yi's side, looked at the sketch of a male lion drawn by Rubens in the glass frame, and asked.
Stunned, Fang Yi realized that he knew the way. Now Nick doesn't know if this work is a fake! His uncle, accidentally went on a business again! Fang Yi couldn't wait to slap himself in the face and make you talk more!
Nick looked at Fang Yi without speaking, and continued to ask, "Where can I tell that it's a fake?" I looked at the problem but didn't see where the problem was! Compared with the comparison of the Namien lion painted by Rubens, there is not much difference in technique, why do you see that it is a forgery at a glance? ”。
Fang Yi scratched his head, thought for a moment and pointed to the lion's hair, as well as a handful of hair on his tail, and said, "There are some lines on the mane in a few places that are redundant!" And the red line from the bridge of the nose to the eyes is a little denser! ”。 Now Fang Yi's sketches are already at the master level, even if they are not at the level of a master, if Fang Yi is left to paint by himself, he will not draw these lines that have no effect on it, this is called painting snakes!
After listening to Fang Yi's words, Nick put on gloves and opened the lid of the glass box, took the sketch paper in his hand, looked at it carefully with a magnifying glass for a while, then raised his head and glanced at Fang Yi, and then continued to look at it, looking at the two places for almost five or six minutes, and then put down the paper: "It is indeed a fake!" The lines in these two places are a bit stiff! ”。
Putting down the paper, Nick said to Fang Yi: "You are really talented!" ”
"There are so many of them!" Fang Yi opened his mouth and said. Looking at Nick's appearance, he thought that he would run to the museum to fix the painting. Hurriedly said: "I don't have time to stay in a studio like this!" ”。 Now a work costs more than 200,000 yuan, and you ask me to come to the studio to repair the painting, get a middle-class salary, and come to check in every day? You can't figure it out!
In order to prevent Nick from saying anything more, Fang Yi turned to Ingres's picture of a woman taking a bath, holding his chin and admiring it carefully, while admiring it, he was entangled in his heart, thinking that Nick had pasted what he had researched into this masterpiece, and his heart was sick.
After the last, I couldn't help but look at them and spoil Master Ingres's peak works, so I opened my mouth and said: "I also came up with a plan, draw it for you to evaluate!" ”。
Nick nodded, pointing to the easel next to him and the canvas not far away.
Fang Yi directly took the oil drawing board, borrowed Nick's color palette and began to enter Angels's soul chain, and used 90% similarity to draw directly on the oil drawing board.
At noon, I naturally had a meal in the museum, and I had enough time to use any classical techniques. Fang Yi had to add quick-drying medium oil to the color to speed up the progress, and that's it, it took Fang Yi three full days to paint a small sample.
"Isn't it a little too bright! It's a little too lively on the whole," Nick glanced at Fang Yi's plan and said, "But your technique is really good!" ”。
"I thought it should be like this, it doesn't destroy the style of the work as a whole, but also adds some vitality, taking advantage of the fact that the color of the human body is more beautiful," Fang Yi explained. said so on his lips, but in his heart, Fang Yi thought that this was all he could do, as for whether to adopt it or not, it was Nick's business, I did what I had to do, and if I couldn't save it, I couldn't be blamed.
It was impossible for Fang Yi to pinch Nick's neck and say loudly, you will follow my plan to repair! Don't mention whether it's stupid or not, it's the best result of doing this, Nick is afraid that he will call the security guard directly, and if it's not good, he may receive a summons from the court!
Now that it was done, Fang Yi directly cleaned up the oil paint on his hand: "Anyway, my thoughts are here, and there is nothing for me to do next!" I'll go back first, I owe the gallery a piece of work that hasn't been finished yet! ”。
"Hmm!" Nick looked at Fang Yi's plan and thought about it carefully, and waved his hand at Fang Yi casually, but he didn't know if he understood what Fang Yi said.
With his empty hands, Fang Yi walked out of Nick's studio directly, as for the things below, it was not something that Fang Yi could care about. As for whether Nick will adopt his own plan, Fang Yi doesn't have much hope in his heart anyway! If I can save Ingres, I have done everything I should have done. Just be out of sight and out of mind, and save yourself from worrying about this problem!
Driving back to the house, Fang Yi pushed open the door and saw Beronica in front of the easel in the corner of the living room, staring at the easel, her brows furrowed.
"What's going on?" Fang Yi walked to Beronica's side, reached out and asked with a finger lightly on his girlfriend's face.
Beronica looked at Fang Yi standing next to her and said, "I still can't draw nine layers, and the time lines or edges covered by the transparency of the eighth layer are distorted!" ”。
Fang Yi looked at his girlfriend's easel and said softly, "Where is such a simple thing!" ”。 Although Beronica eats Fang Yi's small stove, but the technique is really not something that can be improved in a day or two, some things Fang Yi is very simple to draw, but it is also through several years of continuous practice, this is still with the help of things in the brain!
"Don't rush, take your time! And you don't use many of these techniques in your work! Fang Yi could only comfort his girlfriend like this. At present, the works of Fang Yi and Khima tend to be realistic, saying that they are partial to image means that they are like but they are not pure, and the form is between image and dislike. Some of the five people are like dots, and some are not like dots, according to their personal style. And Beronica's style requirements are different.
Beronica looked at Fang Yi and said, "I can't keep my technique so bad!" ”。
Fang Yi smiled and said, "They are all in their thirties, how old are you!" ”。
"Are you in your thirties?" Beronica asked.
"Me?" Fang Yi was stunned when he heard this, Fang Yi really didn't compare himself and his girlfriend in his heart, because he had something in his head, and his girlfriend obviously didn't have it, so he had to explain: "I don't have less time to copy classical works than them!" You've only been around for a few, so take it with you! ”。
Hearing this, Beronica became happy: "It's too! ”。 (To be continued......)
