Chapter 228
Now that he had seen Nicholas's sculptures, he, as the boss, could not be absent!
So he suggested to Anna and Eva:
"It looks like the Tretyakov Gallery is holding a sculpture exhibition today. Should we go take a look after dinner?"
"By the way, some of my farm employees also participated in this art exhibition!"
Eva said in disbelief:
"You run a farm, aren't there farmers and fishermen on the farm? How can there be a sculptor?"
Ye Feng sneered:
"Aren’t those of us who run farms allowed to have a little artistic pursuit?"
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Anna. The Rakshasa pendant Anna is wearing on her neck was carved by the sculpture expert of my farm."
Eva looked at Anna inquiringly. When Anna came back last time, she noticed a set of Rakshasa jade jewelry on Anna, especially the jade pendant and earrings, which she liked very much.
But when she asked, Anna said directly that it was given by her boyfriend, and Eva had no other emotions except jealousy.
Now Ye Feng said that the pendant was carved by the sculpture master of their farm, so she had to ask for clarification.
Sure enough, Anna nodded and said:
"It was indeed carved by the sculptor from his farm, and this sculptor was discovered by Ye Feng himself. Not long ago, they were penniless, but after joining the farm, they quickly became famous!"
"But I didn't expect his work to be recognized by Master Kulvich so quickly!"
Eva said in amazement:
"You also know sculpture art?"
Ye Feng tilted his head and said in a very arrogant way:
"Of course, I have a very high aesthetic taste. As for art, I can only say that I know a little bit, but I definitely know more than you.……"
Ye Feng was very upset that Eva looked down on him. It seemed that she wanted to go against Ye Feng from the very beginning.
Eva snorted, but didn't say anything else.
The three of them set out from St. Basil's Cathedral and headed straight for the Tretyakov Gallery.
The Tretyakov Gallery has a history of more than 160 years and is the largest art gallery in Russia with the largest collection of artworks.
Basically, any art lover who comes to Moscow will not miss this art sanctuary.
The Tretyakov Gallery is divided into the old and new galleries. The old gallery is used to display religious icon art and paintings from the 18th to 20th centuries.
The new gallery was opened in 1998 and displays modern art works from the 20th century.
The combination of the two forms the best window to understand the changes and development of Russian art, culture, and history.
This sculpture exhibition was held in a large exhibition hall in the new gallery.
When Ye Feng and the other two arrived at the Tretyakov Gallery, all kinds of luxury cars were parked outside the gallery, and tourists only entered but did not leave the exhibition hall.
Obviously, this exhibition is quite attractive.
Of course, this is inseparable from the fame of Master Kurvich, the organizer of this event. Whether you have seen his works or not, you have always heard of them.
The three of them found a parking space before entering through the main entrance.
In front of the art gallery stands a stone statue of Pavel Tretyakov, the founder of the art gallery. The statue looks straight ahead with a distant gaze, as if it can see through time and space and see the grand occasion of the art gallery at this time.
Eva was obviously quite familiar with this place. She took Anna and Ye Feng and turned left and right inside and came to the exhibition hall where the exhibition was being held.
But there were too many people in the exhibition hall at this time, so Ye Feng simply chose to go to other exhibition halls.
Eva thought that his behavior was because he had just boasted and wanted to escape, so she said maliciously:
""Why don't you just sneak out and never come back?"
Ye Feng was so upset. Why did such a beautiful woman have to go against him?
If you were uglier, or had a worse relationship with Anna, he would have told her to get out!
But he couldn't do that, which was really annoying.
So he simply ignored her and went to see the collections in the art museum by himself. He couldn't come to the art museum just for his own sculpture exhibition, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
He had been a rich man for more than half a year, and he felt that his knowledge of art had greatly increased under the influence of the system.
He always believed that a super rich man could not only be rich, but also have the corresponding background!
Whether it was history, art, or philosophy.
Because these aspects can enhance a person's influence.
If you are just rich, then sorry, you are always just a nouveau riche.
Of course, it has to be admitted that he pays attention to this aspect to a large extent to make money.(☆_☆)
It's so easy to make money in the art field!
The so-called troubled times are golden times for collecting. The cultural relics he saw at Huyinsan Hall last time also moved him a lot. All in all, he felt that he must make some achievements in art.
And he happened to have a treasure like Nicholas, so why not?
Ye Feng walked along the exhibition hall's exhibits and looked at them. Unconsciously, he browsed a lot of art works, and he also asked the system to explain some art knowledge to him in his mind.
After looking around, he found that Luosha's achievements in art are really amazing! There are many portraits of Luosha literary masters on display in the exhibition hall.
Basically, they are works before the 20th century, including Pushkin, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Chekhov, etc....
Each one is famous!
Finally, he stopped in front of a portrait of a girl.
"It's so beautiful……"
Ye Feng exclaimed:
"It is a work that is as famous as the Mona Lisa!"
The work in front of Ye Feng is called"Unknown Girl", which is the work of Ivan Kramskoy, a great 19th-century painter from Russia.
The girl in the picture has a delicate face, wearing a felt hat decorated with goose feathers, and has a graceful and elegant temperament. She sits in a carriage with a top-down perspective, her eyelids slightly narrowed, and she feels like she is looking down on everyone.
"It feels so good!"
"It's a pity that this is not for sale, otherwise I would definitely buy it!"
Ye Feng murmured.
At this time, a European who was admiring the painting with him beside him said in halting Chinese:
"Mai? Ni Men Hua Xia Town is a Western fantasy word!"
Ye Feng was still immersed in the painting, and was suddenly shocked by him. He was stunned for a second before realizing that he was speaking Chinese.
He frowned and said in Rakshasa language:
"Does this gentleman have any advice for me?"
The man on the other side waved his hand and said in English:
"Sorry, I don't understand Rakshasa language!"
Ye Feng simply switched to English and continued with a frown:
