Chapter 479 Oil Painting Manuscript Photo Gem
When Yang Jing opened a large wooden box, there were as many as eight well-preserved oil paintings inside, and the first oil painting gave Yang Jing a big surprise no less than the three sculptures just now.

The most attractive thing in this oil painting is that the gentle woman with nude body is hugging a white swan reaching her shoulder height. The woman's graceful figure complements each other, making this painting look extremely warm.

On the right side of the woman, there are two young boys with naked bulls playing there, and the background is the mountains and forests by the lake.

Almost at first glance, Yang Jing recognized the painting.

"Could it be that this is the authentic work of Leonardo da Vinci's favorite painting "Leda and the Swan"?" Yang Jing said to himself in surprise.

"Leda and the Swan" is an oil painting created by Da Vinci in 1503. After the painting was created, Da Vinci liked it very much and kept it with him forever, even when Da Vinci settled in Paris in his later years. , has been carrying this painting, which shows Da Vinci's love for this painting.

It's just a pity that after Da Vinci's death, the original "Leda and the Swan" was lost, and the "Leda and the Swan" now treasured in the Uffizi Museum in Florence, Italy, is just a later imitation. Just do it.

But even if it is an imitation, it can be called a priceless treasure.

And there is another one here. Could it be that this work is the real one?In terms of Nicholas II's wealth, it seems that it is not surprising to collect Da Vinci's authentic works.

Yang Jing used his identification skills. As expected, the answer given by the holy ring made Yang Jing overjoyed—"Leda and the Swan", Leonardo di Piero da Vinci, 1503."

"Sure enough, it is the authentic painting of "Leda and the Swan" painted by Leonardo da Vinci!" Yang Jing waved his fist excitedly.

The value of this authentic work is definitely not inferior to Da Vinci's "Mona Lisa Smile". After all, from the perspective of the author himself, Da Vinci prefers the work "Leda and the Swan".And if you look at it from an artistic point of view, "Leda and the Swan" is definitely not inferior to "Mona Lisa's Smile".

This is another indisputably priceless painting.

Four priceless treasures appeared in a row, which made Yang Jing's originally excited mood a little numb.

How many treasures this Nicholas II searched for back then!
Yang Jing didn't dare to imagine what precious things were in the next baby, but the fact made Yang Jing really almost numb.

In addition to this "Leda and the Swan", there is also an oil painting by Leonardo da Vinci in this box. This oil painting is rare in historical records, but it is definitely by Leonardo da Vinci.

Among Da Vinci's masterpieces handed down from generation to generation, there is an oil painting called "Portrait of a Musician", which is now collected in the Ambrosio Art Museum in Milan, Italy. It is also an oil painting that can be called a priceless treasure.

However, it has been mentioned in some rare historical records that when Da Vinci created this "Portrait of a Musician", he did not create this work. He also created two works called "Portrait of a Sculptor". Portrait" and "Portrait of the Artist", but unfortunately these two oil paintings were lost long ago.

The oil painting found in this box is the "Portrait of a Sculptor" created by Leonardo da Vinci.

This was another surprise.

In addition to these two works by Da Vinci, Yang Jing also found an oil painting called "The Madonna Under the Tree" and "The Smile of the Madonna" created by Raphael in the box.

As the three post-Renaissance masters who are as famous as Da Vinci and Michelangelo, Raphael Sanzio's status in the Western art world is naturally beyond doubt.This master, who lived only 37 years old, created nearly [-] works in his life, and only half of them have been handed down till now.

As we all know, Raphael is famous for being good at painting the Madonna. Among all the painters who painted the Madonna, no one is better, and the painting of the Madonna has become synonymous with Raphael.

These two works are both Madonna paintings, which once appeared in some historical records, but no one has seen the original works now, and later generations think that these original works have been lost or destroyed long ago.

Unexpectedly, these two works were actually collected by Nicholas II
In addition to the four paintings of Da Vinci and Raphael, Yang Jing also found two works of Ingres in this box.

Jean-Auguste Dominique Ingres, the most famous neoclassical painter, aesthetic theorist and educator in France in the [-]th century, ranked fifth among the world's top ten painters in the Western art circle , ranking even before Paul Cézanne and Picasso and Van Gogh.

Ingres studied under Napoleon's chief painter Davitt in his early years. After Davitt went into exile in Belgium, Ingres became the standard-bearer of French neoclassicism and the most famous painter in French history.

As for the remaining two paintings in this box, it is no surprise to Yang Jing that they are also works by a French painting master.This master is Paul Cézanne.

The eight oil paintings found in a box are all original works of masters or even masters. Apart from describing it as unbelievable, Yang Jing couldn't find a better adjective.

In the next boxes, Yang Jing found dozens of oil paintings by European painters, including Rubens, Monet, Repin and other painters, and of course, more works by Russian painters .

For example, paintings by famous artists such as Alexei Savrasov, Ivan Shishkin, Mikhail Vrubel, and Ivan Aivazovsky.

These oil paintings alone are enough to support a medium-sized museum.

In addition to oil paintings, Yang Jin also found a lot of sketches, watercolors, and even in a box, Yang Jing found a lot of manuscripts.

Among these manuscripts, Yang Jing unexpectedly found the original manuscript of Leo Tolstoy's "War and Peace" and the original manuscript of the play "The Power of Darkness".

In addition to Leo Tolstoy's manuscript, Yang Jing also discovered the manuscript of another great writer. This great writer has a higher status in the Western literary world than Leo Tolstoy, because this guy has A name too famous - Shakespeare!
Among these manuscripts, Yang Jing found a very good manuscript that was carefully preserved. Looking at this manuscript, Yang Jing was surprised to find that it was the script manuscript of "Hamlet" written by Shakespeare.

In addition to this precious manuscript of Shakespeare, Yang Jing also found three manuscripts of another great writer, this great writer is Victor Hugo.

The largest of these three manuscripts is a manuscript volume of "Notre Dame de Paris", with about 8 words.In addition to this precious manuscript, there are two sketches drawn by Mr. Hugo himself
The value of these manuscripts is definitely not lower than that of those oil paintings, and they are absolutely priceless treasures.

In addition to the manuscripts, Yang Jing also found a large number of black and white photos and hand-painted portraits in a box. Although these are all photos and hand-painted portraits, the contents are absolutely precious.

There are many photos of Alexander III and Nicholas II's enthronement and wedding, as well as many photos of the Tsar chatting with members of the royal families of other European countries at that time.As for those hand-painted portraits, they include all the tsars and queens of the entire Romanov dynasty.

These photos and hand-painted portraits are absolutely extremely precious historical materials, and just releasing a random one is enough to arouse the madness of historians.

There are several boxes containing precious jewelry, including the jewelry worn by Catherine the Great when she ascended the throne, and the jewelry worn by several tsar queens when they were married.Among them, the scepter held by Catherine II when she ascended the throne was extremely precious. This 50-centimeter-long scepter accompanied a generation of female czars on the throne, and witnessed the great achievements of this great female czar's life.

Among these precious jewelry, there are three crowns alone, and jewelry such as necklaces, rings, bracelets, brooches, earrings, etc. are counted in boxes, and any one you take out is a priceless treasure.

These jewelry were all worn by the empresses or empresses of the Romanov dynasty, and many were gifts from other European royal families. Now, they are all precious jewelry that can be met but not sought after.

In a box, Yang Jing also found a series of gems such as diamonds, red sapphires, emeralds and even emeralds.Any one of these gemstones can become the finale of an auction, but here, they can only be put together in piles.

It's like the red diamond that Yang Jing saw was the size of a pigeon's egg. If it was taken out, it would definitely drive women all over the world crazy.

This diamond is not only big in size, but also extremely gorgeous in color, and because this huge red diamond has already been cut, even if Yang Jing sees it, he can't help being a little fascinated by the fire that emanates from it.

After seeing the box full of gems, Yang Jing knew how the eight gems from the totem pole got here.

Even those eight gems are not so outstanding in this box of gems.In this box of gems, some are more colorful and more beautiful than those eight gems
It is no exaggeration to say that if the other treasures are not needed, just this box of gems can make Yang Jing the richest man in the world immediately.

Even the richest man in the world is absolutely unable to own so many top-quality gemstones.These gems can be described in a more popular saying, that is, "you can meet but you can't ask for it".You will never be able to buy this kind of top-quality gemstone if you have money alone.

These gems are estimated to have been accumulated by the Romanov dynasty for more than 300 years. Can they not be precious?How can ordinary gems be seen by the Tsar?
Besides these gems, Yang Jing also discovered a surprise.
