Chapter 1161 Griffin Wings
Chapter 1162 Like a dream
In addition to the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre's pyramid also caused great controversy. At that time, public opinion generally believed that placing a pyramid in front of a European-style palace was nondescript and a blasphemy to aesthetics.
However, at the insistence of the French Prime Minister, this avant-garde building full of neo-modern style was completed. In the first few years of its construction, it was still spurned by Paris citizens. However, ten years later, just like the reversal of the Eiffel Tower in the past, Louvre was
The pyramid of the Floating Palace has also changed from an ugly duckling to a white swan.
It is said that the Chinese-American did not borrow the shape of the Egyptian pyramids at first. The second generation's ordinary geometric shape can not only reflect the changing sky of Paris, but also provide lighting for underground facilities.
Pomona, however, felt that the pyramid was a masterpiece.
When Napoleon went on an expedition to Egypt, he brought a large number of French scholars with him. It can be said that they moved all the Egyptian cultural relics they could. The British also made a mistake when they moved the Rosetta Stone.
The Egyptian Museum has therefore become the largest collection of "Oriental civilization" in the Louvre. It is like a transparent shadow, becoming a part of the Louvre and even Western civilization.
On the Dendera constellation board in the Louvre Museum, Cancer is represented by the Scarab. French perfume is quite famous, but the problem is that it has an inseparable relationship with the poor sanitary conditions in the Middle Ages.
Every country has its own dark history that it is ashamed to mention. The nondescript pyramid reminded the French of this, although the designer did not have this idea at the beginning.
Unless the French return the artifacts they took from Egypt, the glass pyramid will not look out of place if it remains there. Perhaps this is the role of the Pharaoh's curse.
Compared with the crowded Denong Pavilion, Xuli Pavilion has very few visitors. This may be due to the off-peak tourist season. Except for the first floor of Xuli Pavilion, where the most treasured Venus de Milo is located, there are a little more people.
With the natural light coming through, Venus looks particularly soft.
She was so famous that Pomona had seen countless photos and analyzes of her, so after seeing her from a distance, she decided to join in the fun and went directly to the Goddess Pillar Pavilion next door.
The architect borrowed the shape of the Erechtheion Temple on the Acropolis of Athens to create four pillars. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the Three Graces. This group of sculptures can be found in all museums in Europe. This one in the Louvre
The three goddesses seem to be still in adolescence and have not become plump, and there is nothing interesting about them.
Among the many ancient Greek sculptures, one sculpture aroused her interest, that of a girl wearing a veil. It was hard for her to imagine that marble could be carved with the texture of a veil as thin as cicada wings.
"Through" the veil, one can vaguely see the girl's handsome face, which is delicate and vivid, making people want to lift her veil.
Diagonally opposite this sculpture is the "Angel's Kiss", which is another sculpture that does not conform to Egyptian and ancient Greek civilization.
She patrolled the museum and found something strange again. A prone female sculpture lying on a Baroque mattress...
When she turned to the front, she realized that the female sculpture was not "female". Western artists worshiped androgyny, so in many sculptures, men appeared with female characteristics, such as round faces and delicate bodies. However, this kind of female body has long
It was the first time in her life that she had masculine characteristics.
The back of the lying girl looked exquisite and alluring. Pomona looked back at Severus, wanting to ask him what he thought, but it turned out that he was "appreciating" another sculpture.
It is also a very famous masterpiece, Artemis, the goddess of hunting, is grabbing a deer by its horns.
In fact, Pomona thought that the goddess's appearance at that time should be to take an arrow from the arrow basket on her back, and then put it on the bow to shoot.
But the artists later added a deer, and it looked... whatever.
How could such a small deer have antlers?
Anyway, as long as the stag is unlucky, the old bat will feel very happy, regardless of whether it is an adult or a juvenile.
He just wanted to be happy. Besides, the goddess of hunting had the most dignified appearance. The clothes on her body covered the places that should be covered tightly. The artists finally painted the girl's movement instead of her graceful figure.
It is better to smile evilly when looking at such a sculpture than to laugh evilly when looking at a ** sculpture.
"Let's go to another museum and have a look." Pomona said. Although the cemetery theme was not popular, she didn't want to stay in this crazy room anymore.
Although you can't hear heart-rending roars here, after all, stones can't speak.
"Go upstairs or continue shopping on the ground floor?" he asked easily.
"There are too many people on the ground floor," she said distractedly.
"You seem to like going to unpopular attractions." Severus said, "Do you know the most important thing about eating French food?"
She felt there was something in his words.
"French food is so expensive not just for the food, half of the money is spent on the environment."
"I'm sorry." She said apologetically.
"Why are you apologizing? I was not in the mood to eat yesterday." Severus stared into her eyes and said, "I just hope you don't treat yourself too hard, and eventually your heart will shrink and become hard-hearted."
"I will not."
"I wish you could be more naive and naive. That would make me happy, do you understand?"
Pomona's head was filled with questions.
"Do you like naive women?" she asked after thinking for a while.
"You like Pride and Prejudice. Do you think Mrs. Bennett is naive?" he said dryly.
"It's a bit," Pomona said. "Mr. Bennett was not very happy about it. He was always reading in the study."
"Then let me be an unhappy person who always stays in the study and reads." Severus said angrily. "Worrying about your things makes me feel better. What else do you think I can gain now?"
In everyone's eyes I am dead."
She lost the ability to think and didn't know what to say.
"Besides Draco, I have no reason to continue fighting. To understand Caesar is not to become Caesar. Do you know why Napoleon loved Josephine so much? She introduced the nobles of the old era to him and asked them to serve Napoleon. This
It's much better than letting them defect to the Girondins and re-restoring the Bourbon royal family. Let me tell you that Napoleon's eating appearance is ugly, but Josephine is a delicate and elegant woman. She has to change six sets of costumes a day, and every meal is like a ceremony.
Some kind of ritual. She and Napoleon were not really in love. They had the same fantasy, which did not disappear even after the divorce. Do you know what their dreams were? "
"Why ask me now?"
"Look around you, what do you see?" Severus asked again, "In this room, they held many masquerades as the king and queen. The platform above the pillars was for the band to play. You
Can you imagine the scene?"
"No." She said in horror, "I don't want to think about this."
"This kind of luxurious and luxurious situation can easily lead to corruption, saint." Severus sneered. "The White Wizard locked himself in a high tower to stay away from temptations, which allowed him to maintain that kind of superhuman sobriety, but he is
Another form of isolation, his heart becomes more and more dry, and nothing can touch him."
"And Arianna," she said savingly.
"Yes, he still has a lovely and pure sister in his heart, but he doesn't care about his living brother. Living in a dream is much easier than living in reality." Severus looked at the man lying on the bed.
Sculpture on the mattress "You are not as plump as I thought."
"Oh!" she yelled in frustration and annoyance.
"You reminded me of him last night. It wasn't until you danced with me that I realized that I don't care what I eat or what kind of house I live in. I don't think Napoleon is
He wants to eat alone, but has no one to accompany him. Josephine can't stand the way he eats, and he can't stand Josephine's red tape when eating. If it weren't for that vampire, I wouldn't have to look at an ordinary person.
Looking at Napoleon from his perspective, I think it is precisely because he is a bystander that he can see so clearly. Do you know how he sees us?"
"No." She said defensively, "I don't want to know."
"We are all haunted by ghosts." Severus continued, "If death can separate us, then they want us to die. Do you want to be a ghost in Hogwarts?"
"Stop." she begged. "Stop talking."
"Sooner or later, I will unplug what that old fool put into your head. If you are with me, I will not let you eat the French food last night. Do you think I am extravagant at noon today?
But I’m happy to do that, are you going to condemn me?”
"I just said I won't go to popular attractions." She said upset.
Severus sighed, "You are such a fool, what should I say to you to understand?"
"It's better to say, 'I am willing to spend money on the woman I like,' sir." A statue suddenly said in French English, "It is worth paying anything for the woman you love."
Pomona stared at the statue in stunned silence.
"Don't worry, this is not magic, I am performing." The sculpture said, "I have been here for two days without being discovered. I am very curious. You just said vampires. Is that true..."
Severus used his wand to cast a sleeping spell on the Muggle who acted as the sculpture.
"Damn Frenchman." He cursed under his breath, sniffed him with the improved forgetting potion, and then left the exhibition hall with Pomona before anyone else came.
