Chapter 2777 the Creator of the Three Outstanding Artists

Five or six minutes later, Ye Tian led the two TV hosts through the arched corridor and entered the round hall where the bronze statue of the Virgin Mary was located.

When they got here, they stopped and did not continue to move forward, entering the underground palace where the treasure of the Sforza family was hidden!

Following them, many employees of the Intrepid Exploration Company, who participated in this exploration and clean-up operation, descended into this underground space one by one with various exploration equipment.

Afterwards, they spread out along the arched corridor, waiting for representatives, experts and scholars from all parties to come down, and passed through this dangerous arched corridor.

This doesn't mean surveillance, it's just to prevent someone from playing tricks in the tunnel, or touching something with a cheap hand, which will cause accidents!

The last ones who descended into this underground space were representatives from various parties headed by Bishop of Kent and Giovanni, as well as experts and scholars from major museums and universities in Milan.

As for politicians like the American ambassador and the mayor of Milan, they naturally would not go down to this underground space. They were all waiting for the results of the exploration in the hotel and communicating with the outside world.

Not surprisingly, everyone who entered this underground space was shocked and even exclaimed.

Especially those Italian guys, they danced and danced with excitement, as if they were crazy!

While talking, the Bishop of Kent and Giovanni also came to this round hall and joined Ye Tian and the others.

After the two sides met, Ye Tian began to introduce the situation here.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the rotunda you are in now is the end of the arched corridor you just walked through, and it is also the origin of the Fibonacci arc. There are no traps here, and it is very safe.

Coming here safely means that we have passed all the tests and traps carefully set by Leonardo Da Vinci. After passing through this round hall, everyone will enter the underground palace where the treasure of the Sforza family is hidden!

We used a small drone to explore this underground palace before. I preliminarily judged that there should be no traps in this underground palace, which is relatively safe. Of course, I may not have discovered it!

The bronze statue of the Virgin Mary standing in front of everyone is the work of Donatello, the most famous sculptor in the early Renaissance. The two statues of the Archangel next to it are also two top works of art!

In order to ensure the openness and transparency of this exploration operation,

When we came here before, we didn't clean up the dust and moss on the three statues, as well as the dust and moss on the walls, everyone can see.

We did not enter the underground palace behind which hides the treasures of the Sforza family and the inventions of Leonardo Da Vinci. It still maintains the state it has been in for more than five hundred years, and there is not even a single footprint."

Seeing the actual situation in this rotunda, no matter whether it was the crowd at the scene or the countless audiences in front of the live broadcast, they did not have any doubts about Ye Tian's words!

The facts are right in front of you and cannot be denied at all!

Giovanni and other Italians at the scene, as well as the mayor of Milan and other Italian government officials on the ground, had a look of fear in their eyes, and they also felt a headache!

This bastard Steven is really too difficult to deal with, he is invulnerable at all!

After introducing the scene, Ye Tian called several company employees into the round hall and asked them to wipe off the three bronze statues and the dust and moss on the walls of the round hall!

Soon, the dust and moss on the three bronze statues and the walls were wiped off one by one, revealing their true colors!

Due to the age and lack of maintenance for a long time, these three bronze statues have a layer of green patina, but it does not affect the appreciation and identification!

On the walls of this rotunda, there are many Renaissance-style decorations and patterns, as well as some murals with strong religious colors, and there are no traps!

As soon as the cleaning work was completed, several experts and scholars at the scene couldn't wait to come forward and began to identify the three bronze statues and the patterns and decorations carved on the walls!

Including Ye Tian, ​​he also joined the ranks of appraisal, looking serious!

After a while, the preliminary appraisal result was released, and it was a result that was agreed upon by everyone after discussion.

There is no doubt that the bronze statue of the Virgin Mary standing in the center of the rotunda is indeed the work of Donatello, the most famous sculptor in the early Renaissance.

Moreover, this is one of the masterpieces of his peak artistic career, and what is even more rare is that it is intact, and it is a priceless top-level work of art!

The other two bronze statues of Archangel are from the hands of Andre Verrocchio, a famous painter and sculptor in the mid-Renaissance, and they are also two priceless top works of art!

In the field of sculpture art in the mid-Renaissance, Andrea Verrocchio is one of the most famous sculptors after Donatello, and he reached the peak of art after Donatello's death!

In addition to being a famous painter and master engraver, Andrea Verrocchio has another more prominent identity. He is the teacher of top art masters such as Da Vinci and Botticelli!

And his other student, Perugino, was the teacher of Raphael, one of the three masters of Renaissance art, and he also had a great influence on Michelangelo's art!

Andrea Verrocchio was arguably the most influential artist of the second half of the fifteenth century.

It can even be said that he single-handedly contributed to the heyday of the Renaissance movement, and the growth and rise of the three masters of Renaissance art are inseparable from him!

After it was determined that the two Archangel statues were the works of Andre Verrocchio, there was an almost crazy cheer at the scene, as did countless live broadcasters!

Of course, while many Italians cheered loudly, their hearts were bleeding!

The reason is self-evident, and two more priceless top artworks are about to fall into the hands of that bastard Steven, can it not make people feel sad?

The determination of the identities of the two bronze statues also made everyone more sure that this secret space hidden deep underground must be the work of Da Vinci!

Only he can own two works of Andre Verrocchio at the same time.

You know, Da Vinci is Andre Verrocchio's most valued student, and the two even collaborated on an oil painting!

That painting is the famous "The Baptism of Jesus". Andrea Verrocchio created most of the oil painting, and the background and an angel in the painting were painted by Da Vinci!

It was after the joint creation of that painting that Andrea Verrocchio thought that Da Vinci had surpassed himself by far, and never painted again!

Compared with these three priceless bronze statues, the murals carved on the walls, derived from biblical stories, and many exquisite Renaissance-style decorations and patterns, everyone has paid less attention to!

Of course, it is not that these murals have no artistic value and are not worthy of attention.

On the contrary, these exquisite murals and decorations have high artistic value and research value, and are also valuable works of art!

The discovery and determination of these three priceless bronze statues has unknowingly increased everyone's appetite and greatly increased everyone's expectations!

At this moment, what everyone pays more attention to is the underground palace in front, and what is hidden in that underground palace!

To be more precise, it is the treasures of the Sforza family hidden in that underground palace, the top artworks collected by the Sforza family, and Leonardo da Vinci's inventions, even including some of his unknown works of art!

For this situation, Ye Tian had expected it.

He just smiled softly, and then said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, next we will enter the underground palace ahead to explore, to see what is hidden here, and what surprises it can bring to the world!

For the sake of safety, I will take the lead in entering this underground palace to explore, eliminate potential safety hazards, and see if there are any traps. After confirming safety, I will have people install lighting fixtures immediately!

After the darkness covering this underground palace is completely dispelled, everyone can enter it. Before that, everyone may wish to enjoy these statues and these murals here! "

"Okay, Steven, we are waiting here, I hope you can hurry up, everyone wants to enter this underground palace as soon as possible, and witness the miracle with our own eyes!"

The curator of the Sforza Castle Museum nodded and said, it sounds somewhat bitter.

The rest of the people at the scene also nodded, and there was no disagreement!
