Chapter 480: 2 more original works

Just opening the first box, there was such a huge surprise, which was beyond Yang Jing's expectations.

Of course, the appearance of this bronze "David" also made Yang Jing secretly sigh that Nicholas II was Nicholas II. Even if he was eventually ousted from the stage, the emperor of the dignified polar bear is really not simple. The wealth and prestige of Nicholas II can be imagined in the collection of this last tsar.

And the next baby proved that Yang Jing's emotions weren't messy, because the baby that was revealed next almost caused Yang Jing's heart to stop.

Yang Jing wrapped the bronze "David" again with his mind, and then moved out of the storage space. Naturally, he wanted to put such a precious sculpture in the space, but he still needs to do some face engineering to do so. Therefore, these treasures are still there. Need to stay outside for a few days.

The first box gave me such a big surprise, so what about the second box?

Obviously, God felt that the process of obtaining this treasure for Yang Jing was a bit too difficult, and almost lost her name, so God decided to continue to give Yang Jing a surprise.

The second opened box is still a bronze statue, but this statue is definitely no less precious than the bronze "David" just now.

When Yang Jing saw this bronze sculpture, he almost subconsciously shouted: "This is "The Discus Thrower"!"

That's right, the sculpture in front of you, almost one and a half meters high, is the "Discus Thrower" sculpture that almost everyone in the world knows. It’s just that the color of this sculpture is different from the "Discus Thrower" that the world knows. The several known "Discus Throwers" are all marble sculptures. "The Discus Thrower" is an out-and-out bronze sculpture.

"Could it be that this sculpture is the original work of "The Discus Thrower"?" Yang Jing muttered to himself. He resisted the urge to use his appraisal skills and began to look at the sculpture very carefully. The more likely it is that the sculpture in front of me is the original.

"The Discus Thrower" is a sculpture created by the famous ancient Greek sculptor Miron around 450 BC. The statue selects the momentary movements of the athletes in the process of throwing the discus. This is a series of instantaneous movements before the discus is shot. In the temporary constant state of the middle, the athlete holds the discus in his right hand and swings to the highest point, the center of gravity of the whole body falls on the right foot, the left toe is against the ground, and the knee is bent into an obtuse angle.

The shape of this sculpture is tense, but in terms of the overall structure and the expression of the head, it gives people a calm and steady impression, which is exactly what the classicist style pursues.

"The Discus Thrower" represents the development direction of sculpture in the classical period of Greece. This work by Miron solves the problem of the center of gravity of sculpture, provides a paradigm for capturing the momentary image in motion, and is imitated by later sculptors in creating a variety of sports images.

Even in the 1948 London Olympics, "Discus Thrower" was selected as one of the visual images to convey the Olympic spirit to the world.

This sculpture is now recognized as one of the top ten sculptures in the world, and its status is not under "David" and "Broken Arm Venus".

It's a pity that the three existing "Discus Throwers" are all marble replicas of the original work, and the original is a bronze sculpture that was lost long ago. In the 2nd century AD, the Roman emperor who admired the ancient Greek civilization ordered people to recreate the "Discus Thrower". Only then were there three copies of the surviving copies, which were stored in Naples, Rome and London.

In addition to these three marble replicas, there is also a bronze replica of "Discus Thrower" in the world. This bronze replica of "The Discus Thrower" was made by Myron in Greece and was discovered in the villa of Hadrian in Divol in 1791 in the 5th century BC. However, due to improper restoration methods, its face turned towards one. Wrong direction. It is now in the British Museum.

And the bronze sculpture in front of him is full of historical weight. Its face is obviously in the correct position, and Yang Jing looked very carefully. He is absolutely sure that except for the color and the three marble replicas, this bronze sculpture In addition to the differences, no matter in terms of other aspects, they are not very different from those copies.

Do not! To be precise, there is not much difference between the three marble replicas and the bronze Discus Thrower in front of them.

Some subtle differences are unavoidable. After all, the three marble sculptures were reproduced hundreds of years after the original was lost. If there is no difference, then it is a strange one.

After appreciating it for a long time, Yang Jing used his appraisal skills to appraise the bronze "Discus Thrower". Sure enough, the Holy Ring gave an answer that caused Yang Jing to almost have a cardiac arrest-"The Discus Thrower, Miron, 452-448 BC."

"Pretty!" Yang Jing couldn't help but hit the palm of his left hand with his right fist, his expression full of excitement.

This is the original work of "Discus Thrower"! The value is incalculable! It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that it is a priceless treasure!

This Nicholas II was really awesome, and he kept the original work of "Discus Thrower" in his pocket without saying a word. The emperor of a country is really amazing!

Yang Jing is really satisfied. It is no exaggeration to say that only these two bronze sculptures are there. Even if the other treasures are no longer needed, this trip is definitely worth it.

However, surprises still continue.

When Yang Jing packed the "Discus Thrower" again and sent it out of the storage space, he opened the third wooden box that was suspected of containing the sculpture. As a result, the sculpture in this box once again gave Yang Jing a huge surprise.

What was in this box was indeed a sculpture, and it was still a bronze sculpture.

This sculpture is an image of an innocent and lively child playing with a white goose. A naughty child with a naked cow hugged the white goose tightly, smiling, like a triumphant general triumphantly; while the teased white goose stretched his legs and panted with his mouth open, looking helpless in front of the child.

"This is "Portrait of a Child Holding a Goose"?" Yang Jing only felt that he was moving again.

There are ten recognized sculptures in the world. "David", "Discus Thrower", "Venus with Broken Arm", "Sphinx", etc., are all recognized as the world's top ten sculptures.

However, there are still a large number of people who do not approve of the ten major sculptures. The reason why these people do not approve is not that these ten major sculptures are not precious, but that they believe that there are still some sculptures that should be among the top ten sculptures in the world. .

For example, the "Statue of Liberty" standing at the mouth of the Hudson River in New York, and the "Apollo" statue of ancient Greece. Of course, "The Statue of a Child Holding a Goose" created in the third century BC is also considered by many to be among the The ranks of the world's top ten sculptures.

"The Portrait of a Child Holding a Goose" is also called "The Boy Holding a Goose". It is a work created by the famous sculptor Poedos of Halketon in ancient Greece in the third century BC.

Poedos was good at sculpting genres and became an artist who was famous for sculpting children's images at that time. Poedos lived in the 3rd century BC. It was the era when Hellenistic customary sculpture developed. He touched almost every aspect of life, starting from the otherworldly divinity to express the most universal human nature. Particular attention is paid to truly shaping the image of the character and the inner spiritual performance of the person.

His "Portrait of a Child Holding a Goose" is his culmination. With its ingenious structure and lifelike image, this work enjoys a high reputation in ancient times and is very popular among people. It reminds people of the vitality of budding in the innocent and lively image of children. It can be called a masterpiece in the history of Western art.

It is a pity that the original sculpture of this sculpture was lost a long time ago. The marble "Child Holding Goose" that is currently in the Museum of Ancient Sculpture in Munich is a reproduction.

But what's the matter with this bronze sculpture in front of you? Is it really the original work of Poedos?

With the lessons learned from the first two bronze sculptures, Yang Jing is almost certain that this bronze sculpture is the original work of "The Statue of a Child Holding a Goose".

Sure enough, after using the appraisal skill appraisal, the holy ring gave Yang Jing a very satisfactory answer.

This sculpture, covered with green patina, is the original work of "The Child Holding Goose" created by Poedos in the third century BC.

Just opening three boxes, the result was unexpectedly good.

The works of Michelangelo, Miron, and Poedos, three famous masters in the history of Western sculpture, appeared in front of him in such a grand manner.

You know, apart from the "David", it is now impossible for anyone in the world to see the original works of "Discus Thrower" and "Child Holding Goose". However, these two long-lost sculptures were all quietly collected by Nicholas II, and they finally made themselves cheaper!

Yang Jing bet ~www.readwn.com~ Once the news of these three statues is revealed, artists and sculpture lovers all over the world will go crazy!

Have you seen the bronze sculpture of "David"? Haven't seen it before! Do you want to see it? If you want to see it, come to China's Tianqu City!

Have you seen the original work of "Discus Thrower"? Haven't seen it before! Do you want to see it? If you want to see it, come to China's Tianqu City!

Have you seen the original "Portrait of a Child Holding a Goose"? Haven't seen it before! Do you want to see it? If you want to see it, come to China's Tianqu City!

Yang Jing can imagine what kind of sensation will be caused if these three sculptures appear in the museum at the same time once his museum opens.

With these three sculptures in there, there is absolutely no need to worry about no one in my own museum!

"It's just... It's just that these three statues don't seem to be enough..." Yang Jing suddenly felt greedy again.

"So, what kind of treasures will the next boxes have?" Yang Jing looked at the wooden boxes again, as if he had seen the weasel of an old hen...
