The meaning of the aurora.

Rooftop on the fifth floor.

Movie curtains blowing in the wind.

A half-new movie is on the air.

Surreal water architecture with ultra-retro outdoor curtain films.

On a starless night, take away the loneliness of the moon.

The name of the movie is "The Da Vinci Code".

Starring Tom Hanks.

It was released in 2006.

The film follows a series of declassified processes triggered by a murder in the Louvre Museum.

All the codes are hidden inside da Vinci's paintings.

Dan Brown, the original author of the film, has made subversive interpretations of "Mona Lisa", "Self-Portrait of Leonardo da Vinci" and "The Last Supper".

He thought of the Mona Lisa as Leonardo da Vinci's self-portrait.

And the painting "Da Vinci Self-Portrait" is actually hermaphroditic.

What's even more exaggerated is that he thinks that among the thirteen men who participated in "The Last Supper", there is actually a woman.

The woman, in this supper, sat at the right hand of Jesus.

Her name was Mary Magdalene.

Redeemed by Jesus, became Jesus' wife, and left offspring.

All of this forms the basis for decryption.

Dan Brown's interpretation of Leonardo da Vinci's paintings is subversive and appalling.

But on the contrary, he said it conclusively.

And, in a sense, it is logically self-consistent.

Those who don't know enough about the history of the Renaissance, who don't know enough about Leonardo da Vinci's paintings.

If you start knowing da Vinci from this movie, you will easily be transported to the strange worldview created by Dan Brown.

At this moment, on the rooftop on the fifth floor, there is such a little girl.

Her name is Zongyi, and she has just entered the fifth grade.

She was an inquisitive girl, active and active, and gradually began to be interested in the history of the Renaissance.

Of course, it wasn't just the European Renaissance that piqued her interest.

She also has an endless interest in the 5,000-year-old Chinese culture.

There may be more than 5,000, and the Neolithic Majiajiao culture is not a problem.

It's because I'm still an elementary school student.

For the time being, we have not yet had time to find a path where you can swim in the long river of history.

Fortunately, she also has an older sister who majored in cultural relics and museums.

So, Zongyi had a mantra: "Sister sister sister, I have a question." ”

Each word is not in one key, and the words are the same as singing.

And also used the classical scale Gong Shang Jiao Zhengyu, which originated in the Spring and Autumn Period, to "compose music".

From the palace to the feather, only from the feather to the palace.

Translated into a simple score, it is 12356 (sister, sister, sister) - 65321 (I have a question).

It's a little annoying, but it's also a little nice.

"What's the problem?" The dream of being called Sister Five Voices responded with a good temper.

"Is everything in the movie true? Could the Mona Lisa really be Leonardo da Vinci? ”

Zongyi's question is a little childish that has not faded.

It is not quite in line with the current primary school student character design of "The Lonely Brave".

"Of course not. Mona means lady in Italian, so Mona Lisa literally translates to Mrs. Lisa, how could it be da Vinci? Yumeshin denied it categorically.

But isn't "Da Vinci's Self-Portrait" also androgynous? If you compare it carefully, it seems to make sense. I think this movie is very realistic. ”

On the issue of self-portrait, Zongyi was a little brainwashed by the movie.

"Da Vinci Self-Portrait" is not as famous as "Mona Lisa".

It's a painting that Zongyi hasn't seen before, and it's easier to wash his brain.

"The settings in this movie must be fictional, you are in the fifth grade, if you are still so naïve, I won't watch such a movie with you in the future."

Meng Xinzhi regretted a little that he agreed to watch this movie with Zongyi tonight.

"My sister. I'm in the fifth grade, so I can certainly tell which movie scenes are fictional and which are real. It's just that I think that the possibility mentioned in this movie should exist in reality. ”

The little girl paused: "You know what I mean, sister, this is the Mona Lisa, it is different from other paintings." ”

"What's the difference?"

"Sister, didn't you tell me before that the Mona Lisa is a very small painting, 77 centimeters long and 53 centimeters wide, I remember correctly?"

"Well, good memory." Dream Heart's timely touch of the head to kill expressed affirmation.

"Then sister, did you also tell me that the number of views, the number of imitations, the number of lyrics, and the number of reports on the Mona Lisa are all the best in the world."

"Hmm." Meng Xinzhi nodded and motioned for Zong Yi to continue.

"Isn't that right? My sister, eh. If this painting didn't have a special password, how could it be possible to get so many world's best? It's definitely a maverick. Zong Yi firmly stated his reasons.

Meng Xinzhi lightly flicked Zongyi's little brain: "That's because this painting is hung in the Louvre, and the most people visit the Louvre every year, and the number of views of this painting will naturally come up." ”

"But sister, the Louvre has so many collections, why can the little Mona Lisa become a big treasure? It's definitely unique. Zongyi once again emphasized his point.

Dream Xinzhi didn't want his sister to be led astray by a movie, so he had to start explaining very formally:

"That's because when Leonardo da Vinci painted this painting, he pioneered a special painting technique."

"You've seen the Mona Lisa many times, right?"

"Does the whole painting give people a hazy but real feeling?"

"Paintings that have been handed down before the heyday of the Renaissance."

"The boundaries of the characters are very obvious, and they will appear more abrupt."

"The sharper the lines, the less realistic they are."

"The Mona Lisa blurs the boundaries of the characters and enhances the realism."

"At the height of the Renaissance, before the camera, painting was based on realism."

"Before that, da Vinci's brother Botticelli had painted long hair to hide the edges of the characters."

"It's an attempt at realism, but the change is not obvious enough."

"Only a small part of the edge line is hidden, and the lines of the facial features are still very clear."

"Da Vinci created the fading method by hiding the edges inside the face through the light source to create a light and dark effect."

"The painting 'Mona Lisa' not only integrates the edge lines of the characters into the surface."

"This is also done in the treatment of the edge lines of the facial features."

"If you look closely, you will see that the Mona Lisa has no eyebrows and no eyelashes."

"These are all designed to achieve the best results of the fade method."

"Leonardo da Vinci solved the most important problem of realism in the Renaissance."

"And the solution to this problem is represented by the painting "Mona Lisa".

"Therefore, this painting has become the treasure of the Louvre."

"If I say that, will you be able to understand?"

Dream Heart made the most complete explanation possible in a language that Zongyi could understand.

As she spoke, she opened the "Mona Lisa" picture on her phone and compared it to her.

"I understand, I understand, but, my sister," the last five words can be regarded as the second mantra of Zongyi, "In the long history, there are many people who have created special painting techniques, and it cannot be said that the fading method is more meaningful than other painting methods, right?" So why don't other paintings have so many historical masterpieces? It must be because the Mona Lisa itself hides a password. ”

Even though he is a museum professional, Dream Xinzhi was asked one question after another by Zongyi, and he lost his temper.

The little girl didn't mean to stop at all, and even had her own logic:

"My sister, you think."

"To say that the Mona Lisa is the jewel of the Louvre is to say it lightly, right?"

"This painting should be the most expensive painting in human history, isn't it?"

"Didn't my sister watch the Guinness Book of World Records with me when I was very young?"

"Did you see that in 1962, the premium of the painting "Mona Lisa" had reached 100 million US dollars?"

"This is a Guinness World Record!"

"It was 1962, my sister."

"Now, why are there billions of dollars, right?"

"If this painting is not as coded as it is said in the movie, how can it be so expensive?"

When talking about art well, Zongyi focused his attention on the premium and value of the painting.

The paintings in the museum are not just for sale.

Without a deal, how can there be a price?

Whether the painting "Mona Lisa" is the most expensive painting in human history is really impossible to say.

I explained it for a long time with the professional logic of adults, but I couldn't explain it, so I had to take risks in parallel.

"The most fundamental reason why the Mona Lisa is so expensive is because Leonardo da Vinci was not a professional painter."

The words of the dream heart are amazing.

"Huh?" Zong Yi opened his mouth wide, "Sister, are you joking?" Leonardo da Vinci, the first of the three great masters of the post-Renaissance, was not a professional painter? ”

"Certainly not kidding. In addition to drawing, da Vinci was a mathematician, biologist, astronomer, mechanic, and anatomist...... There are a lot of families, and painting is just one of many hobbies for him, but it just happens to be more famous. ”

Mengxinzhi borrowed from Zongyi's use of classical musical scales, and sang five "homes" in a row with Gongshang Jiao Zhengyu.

"But, my sister, this can't solve the problem of why the Mona Lisa is the most expensive! Da Vinci is so powerful, on the other hand, doesn't it still show that there is a secret code hidden in the "Mona Lisa"? Otherwise, why is it so expensive? ”

It turns out.

Zong Yi was not only not convinced, but became more determined.

Dream Heart took a deep breath and said, "I'll tell you right now why a painting by a non-professional painter is so expensive. ”

"Okay, okay, okay, sister, tell me quickly!"

Zong Yi propped his chin and disguised himself as a little flower hungry for knowledge.

Because Leonardo da Vinci did not paint professionally, his understanding of painting was different from that of his contemporaries. Especially when it comes to the mixing of pigments, da Vinci is very freewheeling. As I told you, sometimes there was too much paint, and da Vinci liked to use his thumb to flatten the paint. ”

"Yes, sister, you told me that the only work of da Vinci in exile outside of Europe, "Ginevra de Benchi", is because of da Vinci's fingerprints, so no one has questioned whether it is the work of Leonardo da Vinci himself. You also said that several of Leonardo da Vinci's paintings have thumb prints in them, which can corroborate each other. ”

"That's right, these fingerprints can also prove from another level that da Vinci did whatever he wanted when he painted."

"But, my sister ......"

"Don't do it, I'll explain it to you now." Dream Xinzhi uses a very unique perspective, trying to pull out the Zongyi that gets into the money eye:

"Because da Vinci was first and foremost a scientist."

"So his pigment blending is more functional and scientific, as long as the color is right."

"He didn't study pigments as much as other painters of his time."

"I didn't want to make my paintings famous for generations to come, from the very beginning."

"Many of the paints da Vinci used to paint are easily eroded by time."

"This means that his paintings will easily change their original appearance over time."

"Since the Louvre Museum has collected this painting, it must be hoping that this painting will always be the original appearance."

"In order to achieve this, the museum needs to invest a huge amount of money every year in maintenance."

"Once these maintenance costs are incurred, will they all add up to the value of the painting?"

"Does that make this painting so expensive and outstanding?"

"It's precisely because the painting is so fragile that the museum needs to insure it against the Guinness World Record."

"Does that explain why this painting is so expensive?"

Dream Xinzhi tried her best, if Zongyi still couldn't be convinced, she could only go.

Originally, it was the responsibility of parents to educate children, and it was not her responsibility as an older sister.

"Wow, it's because Da Vinci used paint indiscriminately!" Zong Yi clapped his hands and stood up, "That's right!" ”

"By the way?"

Dream Xinzhi became less confident, and she wasn't sure if she had really convinced her stubborn sister.

She doesn't want to educate her sister, but she doesn't want to take her sister to the ditch because of a movie.

"yes, that's the same thing I used when I was a kid to touch my favorite princess dress with my sweaty hand that had just eaten."

Zong Yi was excited and regretful, took Mengxinzhi's hand, shook and said, "Do you remember, sister?" The purple dress I touched was moldy the next year. ”

"Uh...... That's the thing. ”

Meng Xinzhi didn't remember if Zong Yi had touched the purple princess dress, let alone if any of them were moldy.

She just wants to seize every opportunity to let her sister not be led astray by the movie.

"It's so interesting, it turns out that the Mona Lisa is so expensive because Da Vinci is messing with the paint and touching it!" Zong Yi happily spun in circles, "Hahahahaha, this does increase the cost of maintenance, just like I often increase my mother's burden." ”

Finally, Zongyi's logic also became self-conscious.

Laughed out of the classical scale, happily went downstairs to sleep.

Leaving Dream Xinzhi, who had watched "The Da Vinci Code" more than a dozen times, was in a daze on the rooftop on the fifth floor.

She didn't believe there really was any Da Vinci code.

In Mengxinzhi's view, the study of da Vinci's paintings in the movie is similar to the study of Dream of Red Mansions in Hongxue, and many details have been studied a little too much.

For example, Jia Baoyu is the illegitimate son of the emperor and even the crown prince.

The so-called "fake treasure jade" is actually a "real treasure jade".

Whether it's for "The Da Vinci Code" or for "Dream of Red Mansions".

They all study a novel as a historical fact.

In the eyes of Mengxinzhi, who is a cultural relics and museum professional, there is no point in doing so.

If you want to talk about historical facts, if you want to say that she believes, she only believes in unearthed cultural relics.

History is gone, and only artifacts can restore the truth, or at least part of it.

But, strangely.

She often has bizarre dreams.

For example, after watching "The Da Vinci Code", I dreamed of the Mona Lisa.

It's Lady Lisa, not the painting.

In the dream, Lady Lisa sang to her.

Dream Xinzhi has never heard such a nice voice in real life.

Another example is to go to the Liaoning Museum to see "Luo Shen Fu Tu", and I dreamed of the love entanglement between Cao Zhi and Luo Shen.

In the dream, she and Roselle danced on the water, discussing why there is so much love in the world.

It's a bit of a fantasy.

But everything in the dream is too real.

The reason why da Vinci's paintings are more difficult to preserve than his contemporaneous paintings is because of the problem of pigment mixing, which is the answer she received when she communicated with Madame Lisa in her dream.

At that time, Dream Heart was only six years old and illiterate.

In life, it is not possible to come into contact with this information.

Two years later, the first time I traveled abroad with my father, I went to the Louvre, and I went to see the "little" "Mona Lisa".

She just wanted to see it, and she didn't want any answers.

Like most tourists, I hurriedly took a picture and got ready to go.

But when leaving, I accidentally received a message from a staff member who could speak Chinese.

It is a fact that the maintenance cost of the Mona Lisa is much higher than that of other paintings.

Leonardo da Vinci's pigment mixing problems are indeed one of the reasons for the high maintenance costs of his heirloom works.

The staff also gave a special example of the Last Supper.

It is said that when da Vinci painted, he did not like to use fresco pigments, which have been widely used since the Middle Ages.

Instead, he uses his own original "organic" new pigment that mixes eggs and milk.

There are many parts of his paintings that are badly peeled and there is no possibility of complete restoration at all.

The words of the staff can be combined with the knowledge points that Lady Lisa told her in her dreams.

Because of this, Dream Heart began to pay special attention to his dreams.

She later dreamed of Lady Lisa again.

By that time she was already in secondary school.

That day, probably because I listened to my dad sing "Who is the Mona Lisa" all night.

Then I thought about it day and night.

In the dream, Lady Lisa tells her that the identity of the Mona Lisa is different from all later speculations.

Lady Lisa said that she was a singer with a natural voice.

Just like the first time Yumekonoyuki dreamed of her.

Mrs. Lisa also said that she and Leonardo da Vinci had a musical affection.

She was the first to catapult Leonardo da Vinci to the halls of art in Florence.

It was she who made Leonardo da Vinci's beauty and talent known to Florentine.

They are lifelong bosom friends.

That's why da Vinci took her portrait with him wherever he went.

Even if he left Florence in his later years to work as a court painter in France, it was the same.

That's right, in the dream, Mona Lisa told Yumeshin that da Vinci began to make a name for himself in Florence as a handsome musician.

Not a painter, not a scientist, but a musician.

And the point is handsome, very handsome, very handsome.

After waking up from the dream, Dream Heart went to the library to check countless materials.

The question of who the Mona Lisa is, there is no information that can give a clear answer.

But the fact that da Vinci was handsome when he was young and debuted as a musician turned out to be true!

Leonardo da Vinci in history was not only very good at singing.

The flute and lyre are equally outstanding.

But it really responds to the sentence in "Dream of Red Mansions" - when the fake is true, the truth is also false, and there is nowhere to do nothing.

This also strengthened the determination of Dream Heart University to study cultural relics and museums.
