Chapter 1566 The Treasure of Saint Denis VI

 Chapter 1567 The Treasure of Saint Denis (7)

Georgiana remembers that when she was watching Titanic, there was a male audience member in the back seat. He couldn't understand why Rose would abandon the rich Carl and become the wife of the poor painter Jack Dawson.

This may be because he is just a civilian. If he wants to buy a ticket from Liverpool to New York, it will only be in second or third class. In his eyes, the passengers in first class are well-dressed, well-fed and look gorgeous.

Eye-catching.

But Rose only felt suffocated. This suffocation was not caused by the tight clothes she was wearing, but by her husband, an American steel tycoon who claimed to be from upper class society and a free country.

After seeing off the two American guests, Georgiana called Matilda, Figel and Belle to go to the Louvre.

Karl doesn't understand art. His mind is like a clanking machine, calculating interests all the time.

A woman enjoys a comfortable life thanks to her husband's hard work. The husband leaves the warm and comfortable home to compete in the dirty and cold world outside. The woman should be grateful, but Karl obviously enjoys this kind of life. He doesn't care about Ross. Ross

His aristocratic status only makes him look more noble.

This was not Georgiana's original intention to develop the steel industry.

She browsed the famous paintings on the wall in the Louvre. The collection of the Louvre is now much richer than when she came here in the 21st century, but some famous paintings are not on display, such as "The Raft of Medusa".

It seemed like I saw someone waving a red cloth again asking for help, but this time it was not a French sailor but a British sailor.

It is not the members of Parliament who are performing the blockade at sea. The life of the British sailors is no better than that of the French army. Perhaps there was a ship that was lost in the North Sea and thought it was a port after seeing the light of the lighthouse.

Driving towards it, these Muggle sailors fell into the hands of the dark wizard and became the "material" for making dementors.

As a politician, Pepin did not kill his brother. Apart from the phrase "famous brother", Carloman repeated the most frequently "He still loves me".

Carloman was older than Pepin, but died behind his brother. Napoleon said that he was younger than Joseph, but it is not absolutely true that Joseph died in front.

Generally speaking, as long as they don't die from assassination or disease, the queen will die after the king. The king has more to worry about than the queen. What's more, Napoleon is engaged in such a dangerous profession as a soldier, and his command post is within the range of cannonballs.

, he is essentially as dangerous as the infantrymen standing in the front row.

He was still a bit warm-blooded and humane. If Venice had been willing to be neutral, it might not have suffered the subsequent robbery. However, they killed the French wounded soldiers in the hospital in Verona and the crew of the Loye, which angered Napoleon.

, "The French cannot die in vain." Even after being occupied, Venice is still one of the destinations of the British grand tour, but if you study architecture, if you study painting, you have to go to the Louvre in France.

Come to the palace, because the remaining famous paintings in Venice may not be as many as those in the Louvre.

There were some students who were standing in the gallery of the Louvre, looking at the masters' masterpieces and copying them, or looking for inspiration. Georgiana passed by behind them like an ordinary tourist and peeked at the things in their hands.

work.

Most of them have not gotten rid of the existing styles of France and Italy. Even more so since David became famous, neoclassicism is very popular, so when Georgiana passed behind a young man, she found that he was full of Impressionist-style watercolors.

I couldn't help but stop while sketching.

He was not copying the paintings in the Louvre, but facing the window sill and painting the scenery on the Seine River through transparent glass. It was already a bit cold outside in October. In order to prevent the fire from burning these paintings, the Louvre

No fire is allowed in the palace. It's actually a bit cold inside, but it's nowhere near as cold as outside.

Georgiana looked at his paintings carefully. He seemed to paint the Ile de la Cité. The most profitable thing now is portraits. Would anyone want his kind of landscape paintings?

The blond young man was carefully mixing paint when he suddenly noticed someone watching behind him and was startled.

"Good afternoon," Georgiana said in French with a smile.

"I...I..." The young man hesitated for a long time, stammering in English, "I'm sorry, I don't speak French."

"Oh, you are British?" Georgiana said also in English.

"That's right!" The young man couldn't help but raise his voice, attracting almost everyone's attention in the gallery.

"Are you British too?" the young man asked Georgiana with a smile.

She didn't answer, but looked at his "masterpiece".

"It's very special." She looked at the painting and said, "Is this your own style?"

"That's right." He said proudly.

Georgiana couldn't explain why. She just felt that the young man's paintings were very natural and not as elaborate as other paintings, especially the ones that were filled with moisture, as if the scenery was shrouded in fog.

"Can I see your other works?" Georgiana asked.

"Of course." The young man said generously, taking down a painting tube. "I painted this while traveling in the Alps."

Georgiana took the painting and looked at it under the slightly golden sunlight.

The first picture is of a barn. You can see how fog or dust looks like in the sun. The ceiling of the barn is very dark, but the ground is golden. There is a girl squatting on the ground to add fodder to the mule.

"What do you think?" said the young man.

"What?" Georgiana asked inexplicably.

"This yellow." The young man pointed at the painting and said, "Doesn't this color look very dazzling?"

Georgiana knew that many masters liked to use their own specific colors, such as Titian's gold and Tiepolo's blue, but this young man in his 20s used his own specific colors so early?

"It looks great," Georgiana must say. "I like this combination of black and gold."

"It's yellow," he corrected.

Georgiana shrugged and moved on to the next picture.

It was a plank road in the Alps, with clouds and mist lingering in the valley. Just like his previous work, it used a lot of yellow. The conflict between these two light and dark tones blended together and looked very impactful.

She continued to scroll down. There were several buildings and the inside of the church. The figures were very blurry. After all, they were all in the distance, but the lines, colors and light and shade were clear, especially the monks wearing white clothes.

, a beam of light happened to shine on them again, and the white color almost glowed.

"This is not realistic." The young man pointed at the two men in black opposite the white monks and said, "These two are medieval soldiers. They are threatening the monks with swords."

"Which church is this?"

The young man looked at her for a while and then asked, "Tell me first what your name is?"

"Georgiana!"

She heard a loud voice shout.

She looked back and saw that it was Napoleoni, followed by Denon.

"You know my name." She returned the paintings to the young man. "You painted very well."

Then she looked at his clothes and found that he did not look particularly shabby. It seemed that he was not a poor artist like Seasi who needed support.

"If you need help, you can go to Sèvres to find me, and remember to bring your paintings." She said and prepared to leave.

"My name is Turner." Just when Georgiana was about to leave, the young man said hurriedly, "My name is Joseph Turner."

Georgiana turned back and smiled at him, bathed in the golden sunshine, and led the maids towards the French First Consul.

I like Turner's "The Fishermen at Sea" very much, and his Blizzard, which he painted in 1812. The inspiration came from traveling in the Alps in 1802. Because of the Peace of Amiens, could the British come to France? This short period

It is difficult to maintain peace whether it is profitable or not.
