Chapter 539: Takeaway Rembrandt

The next famous painting, Ye Tian, ​​is also very familiar and is one of the most important goals of this treasure hunt.

This is Rembrandt's "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee", one of the 13 top artworks from the Gardner Museum in Boston that was looted wildly in 1990.

What Ye Tian saw was exactly the same as the rumors. This painting was cut directly from the frame by the robbers with a paper knife.

Under perspective, the cutting marks on the edges of the paintings immediately appeared in his eyes, very clear. He felt painful when he saw it and he almost sweared!

This is definitely not Thompson's doing. I guess he can't do such a stupid thing. In all likelihood, it was Andrew that bastard's hands. What a idiot!

After cursing a few words secretly, Ye Tian immediately ended the perspective and began to admire this top-class painting.

Rembrandt, one of the greatest painters of the 17th century in Europe, is also the greatest painter in Dutch history.

His paintings have a wide range of genres and he is good at portraits, landscape paintings, genre paintings, religious paintings, historical paintings and other fields. In these fields, he has made outstanding achievements and shines in the annals of art history!

In the history of European painting, Rembrandt has a lofty status and is almost indistinguishable from many Italian Renaissance masters. What he represents is the nationality and national genius of Northern Europe!

The reason why Rembrandt is great is that he invented a technique to express his own special heart and soul, chiaroscuro!

He uniquely uses light and shade, flexibly handles the light and dark light in complex pictures, uses light to strengthen the main parts of the painting and also allows the dark parts to weaken and ablate secondary factors.

This magical treatment of light and shade constitutes a strong dramatic color in Rembrandt's painting style and also forms his unique painting characteristics!

The "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee" in front of him perfectly embodies this characteristic.

This Baroque style painting was created in 1633. It is Rembrandt's only masterpiece with a nautical theme. It has a very special meaning and a lot of value!

Because of its peculiarities and extraordinary painting skills, the price of this top oil painting has always been very expensive and the art market's estimate is as high as 300 million US dollars!

But if this oil painting does appear and is sent to a large-scale auction, it will definitely cause a sensation and cause crazy enthusiasm and chase. There is almost no problem with the sky-high price of more than 300 million US dollars.

For Ye Tian, ​​this top oil painting is one of his most desired goals!

When he will went back to negotiate with the FBI's art crime team and the Gardner Museum, he was ready to open his mouth. This oil painting or Vermeer's "The Concert" he must take one of the two! Not negotiable!

After admiring this famous painting for a few times, Ye Tian raised his mobile phone, began to shoot a video, and gave a professional and accurate appraisal conclusion.

"Look, everyone, this is the masterpiece of Rembrandt, the greatest painter of the 17th century in Europe and the greatest painter of the Netherlands. "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee" is his only painting with the theme of navigation!

I believe everyone is very familiar with this painting. Yes, this is one of the 13 top artworks that were looted at the Gardner Museum in Boston on the night of St. Patrick's Day in 1990.

From the scale of the painting, we can clearly see the traces of the original looting. The original scale of this famous painting was 160/128 cm, but now it is 145/115 cm at most when visually inspected.

Fortunately, the idiot who cut this famous painting did not destroy the main body of the painting. After more than two decades, there is no other damage to this famous painting and it is well preserved!

Based on my research and appraisal of this top oil painting, I can tell you with certainty that this is the famous painting of Master Rembrandt, the only nautical oil painting, there is no doubt!

Now that you see this oil painting, everyone will definitely have such questions. At the same time, where are the other 12 top paintings that were looted? Is it also here?

I can tell you that the other 12 top paintings are also here, there are a lot of them and they are quite well preserved, unscathed, you will see them later!

After a long period of more than 20 years, these paintings can be recovered intact. It must be said that it is a miracle. It is the luck of the Gardner Museum and also my luck!"

As before, when shooting the video of this famous painting, Ye Tian also came with some close-up shots, which made this video more convincing.

The filming of this video was quickly completed and Ye Tian's professional appraisal conclusion also ended.

After saving the video data, he immediately pointed his phone at another famous painting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please look at this oil painting. It is still a painting by the artist Rembrandt. It is a painting of two person. It was named as "A Lady and Gentleman in Black" in 1633.

Really worthy of the reputation of 'Rembrandt to take away'! The international art thieves really love his paintings too much and always regard them as the target of looting!

Like "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee", this is also one of the 13 top artworks looted in the Gardner Museum. Coincidentally, it is still placed next to "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee".

It seems that this art thief is a very interesting guy. He actually put these two Rembrandt paintings together according to the location of the Gardner Museum. How do you feel when you see it?

After my careful research and appraisal, this painting is undoubtedly an authentic Rembrandt. It is indeed the top art looted in the Gardner Museum. I am very sure of this!"

After two consecutive 'takeaway Rembrandt', the next painting finally changed.

"Look, everyone, this is also a top-level artwork. It is a masterpiece from the famous French post-impressionist painter Gauguin, "Girl in Front of Open Window", created in 1898.

During that time, it was the peak period of Gauguin's artistic career. He created many immortal masterpieces and left a wealth of artistic wealth for the world. This is one of his masterpieces.

Seeing this famous painting from Gauguin, it is estimated that everyone will immediately think of the crazy burglary that occurred at the Kunsthal museum in the Netherlands in the middle of the night in October 2012.

In that crazy theft, a total of seven top art works were looted. They are the famous Spanish Cubist painter and one of Picasso's masterpieces, "Harlequin Head".

"Self-Portrait" by the famous Dutch painter Meyer de Haan, "Waterloo Bridge, London" and "Charing Cross Bridge, London" by the French Impressionist Master Monet.

Fauvism standard bearer Matisse's "Reading Girl in White and Yellow", the famous British painter Freud's 2002 masterpiece, "Woman With Eyes Closed" and this Gauguin in front of me!

Undoubtedly, these seven paintings are all top art works with extraordinary artistic value and market value. If this were not the case, those crazy art thieves would not start with these paintings.

It is a pity that I only saw four of them here and the other three paintings are missing. They must have been sold by these art thieves and I hope they can be recovered one by one in the future!

After introducing this, it is time to announce the appraisal conclusion of the painting in front of me. I can give you a very positive answer! This painting is 100% original Gauguin!"

He have finished another famous painting of tens of millions of dollars and continue to the next one!

"Hello everyone, this is a beautiful landscape oil painting. It was created by the famous French landscape painter Theodor Rousseau in the 19th century. It is a rare top-level artwork!

In 2003, this landscape oil painting was stolen from a museum in Marseille, France. At the same time, three works by famous French painters de la Pena and Troyan were also stolen,...

After half a minute, Ye Tian moved the target again, began to film another famous painting and gave an accurate identification conclusion.

"What appears in front of everyone at this moment is one of the masterpieces of the famous painter and founder of Fauvism Henri Matisse, "The Luxembourg Gardens".

In 2006, this famous painting was stolen from the Sao Paulo Museum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. At the same time, several famous paintings by Dali, Picasso and Monet were also stolen...."
