Yang Yuxi stared at Ye Ming with wide eyes, seriously doubting what he said. A painting that she had never even heard of was worth 64 million. How could this be possible?
"You may not have heard of this painting 'The Glory of the Virgin', but you must have heard of the author of this painting." Ye Ming said. "Who is it?" Yang Yuxi asked. "Van Gogh." Ye Ming said.
"Van Gogh? Vincent van Gogh?" Yang Yuxi raised her voice, very surprised by the answer. "Yes, that's him." Ye Ming nodded.
"Nonsense, I have never heard of such a painting by Van Gogh. Don't think that you can deceive me by just picking a famous person. I studied oil painting appreciation when I was in college." Yang Yuxi said. Van Gogh's name
She has naturally heard of it, and it is very familiar to her. Anyone who is involved in oil painting will be familiar with this name. Although Yang Yuxi is not very proficient in oil painting, she once took the course of Western oil painting appreciation when she was in college.
Although her level of appreciation of paintings is not worth mentioning, she remembers a lot of the names of some of the top Western painters and the paintings that were auctioned for sky-high prices. She remembered that Van Gogh had an oil painting, "Doctor Gachet"
"Portrait" was purchased by a wealthy Japanese man in 1990 for US$82.5 million. It was still the same in the 1990s. Now, I'm afraid the price will rise a lot. I'm afraid it can easily exceed US$100 million. If this
If the painting is really an authentic work by Van Gogh, its value of 64 million should be considered very low.
"I know very well that among all Van Gogh's works, there is no such work as 'The Glory of the Virgin'. You can't deceive me." Yang Yuxi said loudly. "Our young master never deceives people. This painting of 'The Glory of Life'"
It is indeed a work by Van Gogh." A woman in cheongsam interjected. This woman was the woman who used the soft sword to strip off her clothes before. Her name is Qiu Li. Yang Yuxi snorted without saying anything, but she made it clear that she didn't believe it."
Miss Yang, since you know the painting "Portrait of Dr. Gachet", you must also know some background information about this painting." Qiu Li, a woman in cheongsam asked.
"Of course, Dr. Gachet was Van Gogh's psychiatrist and took good care of Van Gogh for a long time. In order to thank him, Van Gogh painted a portrait of Dr. Gachet one month before committing suicide to express his gratitude to Dr. Gachet.
"Yang Yuxi cherished her family treasures. "That's right." The cheongsam woman nodded and continued: "However, this is not the truth." Yang Yuxi looked at Qiu Li doubtfully and heard her say: "Van Gogh is indeed mentally ill, and
It was Dr. Gachet who took good care of him, and he did paint a portrait of Dr. Gachet, but this painting was not his last work."
"Don't tell me that Van Gogh's last work was this 'The Glory of the Virgin'." Yang Yuxi said sarcastically. "Miss Yang is really smart. This 'The Glory of the Virgin' is indeed Van Gogh's last work, and this painting
It is still his most accomplished painting." Qiu Li said. "Haha, it's really funny. You said this is Van Gogh's work. Is this Van Gogh's work?" Yang Yuxi sneered, not believing her words at all.
"Of course it doesn't count what I said, but if the young master says it is, then it is." Qiu Lida said, looking at Ye Ming with an admiring and fanatical look. "If he said yes, then it is. Do you really think that he is an omnipotent god?" Yang Yuxi raised her eyebrows.
